    A fun beast slaying experience that new and existing fans of The Witcher will enjoy, even if loading times are a little slow

    When Pokémon GO meets the strong storytelling of The Witcher, a very entertaining role-playing-AR-smartphone-game comes out in which you cover a few (kilo-) meters.

    Being focused on single player, The Witcher Monster Slayer is an interesting AR experiment and you should certainly give it a try.

    The pleasant surprise of the summer comes from Poland. Spokko Games takes the Pokémon GO-like formula and makes it its own.

    Witcher: Monster Slayer is an app with a big potential that still waits to be properly realized. The gameplay is very engaging, but there needs to be a bigger goal - collecting trophies is cool, questing while walking is cool, but the lack of any group activity (raids?) is not cool.

    It's certainly cool fighting monsters from The Witcher and watching a story unfold through some lovely comic-style art. Unfortunately, the game requires too much of a time commitment and is pretty much pay to win.

The lore is well researched, the battles are fun, carried, and strategic, and there’s a clear story to this mobile game. The Witcher: Monster Slayer is a free to play, very well polished game, so expect the temptation to spend hard earned cash to get a leg up in the world, and by all means, if you are able and willing, then the prices are comparable to games with far less polish and charm. Maybe I’m a sucker for the Witcher universe (not maybe… I am), but the game is fun and my wife and I walked a good two miles without even noticing this evening just having fun, and if you like the ‘just one more monster’ mentality in your game then this is a great game that will get you walking around your neighborhood. Heck, we even drove to other neighborhoods to play. Happy hunting, Witcher!… Expand

    The game milks the players. Pay to win…
    the game is not made for players, but for making money.

    I played Pokemon, Ingress, Harry Potter and this game. It's the worst game: no fun, no nice pictures, no interest, no aim. Just walk and pay.
