CGMagazine: 8 / 10 by Philip Watson

Coromon is a must play for Pokémon fans, and although it has flaws, fans who normally steer clear of like minded games might find reprieve here, especially for its good price and portability due to the Switch port.

Nintendo Life: 7 / 10 by Trent Cannon

Coromon takes aim at one of the greatest series of all time and, while it isn't any threat to Pokémon's worldwide domination, it is a charming and fun nostalgia trip for fans. Excessive grinding and a story that takes its time to get going mar what is otherwise a worthwhile journey, but if you're a fan of old-school Pokémon, that shouldn't put you off investigating this title up. Whether you're a new trainer or you've been catching 'em all for years now, Coromon has something for you to enjoy.

Screen Rant: 3.5 / 5 by Rob Gordon

As such, Coromon is something that clearly comes from a place of great respect. Pokemon fans will likely find a game that appreciates what people love about the first five generations of Game Freak's franchise, and even when things get a little clunky there's enough for users to enjoy.

Full Review

Coromon is an RPG game, developed by the indie TRAGsoft studio. The main source of inspiration for this game was the best-selling Pokemon series, which had an impact on the graphic design as well as the storyline and mechanics.

Plot

Coromon takes us on a journey to the fantastic land of Velua, where people and the creatures live in harmony. Or at least that was until the mysterious sinister group decided to unleash a powerful dark force. During the game we play the role of a fresh member of Lux Solis organization. The protagonist sets off on a journey through the Velua to gather an army of Coromon and experience incredible adventures with them, and consequently face the danger threatening the whole land.

Mechanics

In Coromon the action is shown from the top-down view. During the game, we travel through the land of Velua consisting of various biomes, conquering more and more powerful Coromon. The latter have been prepared one hundred and twenty, and each of them has individual statistics and skills, which they develop over time. Skillful use of their strengths is the key to success in turn-based clashes with other creatures and the Titans. We are talking about six bosses, who, due to their powerful power, are the ultimate test for the capabilities of our Coromon division. As they live in separate dungeons with obstacles, reaching each of them requires solving a number of ingenious puzzles.

As we progress, we not only increase the combat potential of the Coromon (after gaining a certain amount of experience the creatures receive special points, which are used to conquer statistics), but also unlock new elements of clothing and hairstyle for our hero.
