    An intriguing but seriously flawed strategy board game for only the most patient of Poke-fans. [March 2017, p.80]

    Chance and strategy don't go together. [Issue #26 – March/April 2017, p.18]

    In terms of pure gameplay, there’s no question that Pokemon Duel is superior to Pokemon Go. The competitive nature of it also means it’ll be less faddish and more likely to get better with age. It’s simply too imperfect in its current form to be as fun as it could be, so if you want to dive into it while it goes through its growing pains, be prepared for more lulls than LOLs.
