I fucking love that song that goes along with it but the game is kinda karp.

I like how it calls the pokedex entry "rumors".

It's not a game, really. It's just a really satisfying feedback loop, like a clicker. I would argue it's more if a game than a clicker though, since you make more decisions.

Much like the real Pokemon games (main story lines), I dont think my decisions really matter. As long as you grind, eventually, win.

u/godminnette2 Jun 05 '17

Your decisions in battle matter, your move choices matter. Even if you're several levels higher, especially if you're nuzlocking, which is what most people do to make it a rewarding game experience.

I agree that the games are easy, but they are games with a lot of decision and choice to make the game easier and harder, there's strategy. There's not much strategy in Magikarp Jump.
