Pokémon fans are loving the game
Pokémon TCG Pocket is not only a smash hit, but also a global phenomenon, it seems. According toAppmagic, the game is making money in countries all around the world. With 43 percent of its revenue currently coming from Japan, followed by the United States at 27 percent.
Every day, players are able to open two free booster packs and collect cards with unique visual effects, and cards with immersive environments you can leap into. The game has a mechanic which lets players pay to open more card packs, and it seems to be working.
I opened a couple of free packs myself and the experience was just like opening a pack in real life, just digitally. You simply just drag your finger across the screen to open a pack, then you tap to reveal each of the cards in it one by one. Flipping through all the artwork on the cards is really cool, and I can see why players are enjoying the experience so far.
The game still has quite a ways to go to reach the level of hypePokémon Godid back in the day, but it seems Pokémon TCG Pocket is already off to a pretty good start. If the game continues to receive content and feature updates, I could see this game reaching the popularity level Pokémon Go did. The game is available now in 89 countries, on theApp StoreandGoogle Play Store.
