New edition of a classic entry in the Pokemon series and part of the so-called second generation along with Pokemon Silver. The original game debuted in 1999 in Japan for the Game Boy Color handheld, and then has been released on Nintendo 3DS console family more than fifteen years later. The story of Pokemon Gold takes place in a fictional world inhabited by the eponymous creatures, as players once again venture as a beginner pokemon trainer to catch all of their species and beat the best trainers around. Pokemon Gold introduces many novelties compared to the first generation, starting with new region (inhabited by previously unseen species of pokemon), night/day cycle, additional items, and ending with the breeding mechanics. The core gameplay remained unchanged, so we explore the world from top-down view, interacting with NPCs, catching pokemon and engaging in turn-based battles against trainers we meet. All of this is presented in 16-bit colored visuals, complemented with music by Jun'ichi Masuda. Additionally, the game supports local wireless and PokeBank application, the latter letting us transfer our pokemon to newer games from the series.

A mobile RPG that resembles the famous Pokemon series. The players assume the role of a young boy who intends to become a master monster trainer. In the game, we traverse locations in search of new beasts. The fun boils down to catching encountered creatures and training them to make a team that will then be sent to fight other trainers' creatures. In total, there are over 900 monsters to catch, all divided into several categories (fire, water, shadow, etc.). Strengths and weaknesses of every one of them are based on rock, paper, scissors rules — each creature is especially effective against one kind of enemy and weak against another. Therefore, our team has to be composed in a way that makes it ready for all possibilities. Battles are fought agains AI-controlled opponents as well as other players. Graphics-wise, Neo Monsters resembles other Japanese two-dimensional RPGs. The production features manga style visuals, while the story is told with static dialogue scenes. Neo Monsters is available for a small amount of money but features micropayments.

A mobile battle strategy developed by HEROZ. The main hero is an aspiring Pokémon trainer who takes part in a tournament on Carmonte Island. The winner will receive the deed to a luxury hotel – the Jewel Tower. As the hero desires to become a hotel industry magnate, the prize is a real treat for him. The mechanics of Pokémon Duel are based on the simplified rules of a collectible miniatures game Pokémon Trading Figure Game, so gameplay comes down to fighting turn-based battles of Pokémon figures. The arenas have a net showing predefined paths between teams of up to six Pokémon. In order to succeed, you need to lead at least one creature to the starting position of the opponent. You can choose from the entire set of sixth generation Pokémon – even though you begin with just a few basic beasts, with progress you get access to more powerful ones. This is a free-to-play production with microtransactions, featuring both single- and multiplayer modes.

We play as a pokemon trainer who duels wild pocket monsters. if we win, the pokemon we have defeated is added to our collection. Gameplay focuses on aligning three or more elements of the same kind into horizontal and vertical lines. We move small squares with pokemon icons around a small board. In order to attack, we have to align at least three pokemon icons of the same type (i.e. three Pikachus will create an electric attack). The more we use one pokemon, the stronger it gets. However, we have to remember we only have a limited number of moves to use in battle. If we use them all before winning, we automatically loose. Our enemies also have strengths and weaknesses, so it is advisable to plan ahead before battle.
