Thank You Skeli Games
Long Story: A few months ago, I became a dad and was finding it difficult to spend any kind of time gaming on my pc/ps5, so I went and bought myself a mobile controller after watching some guys on yt talk about how its convenient and stuff.
The entire reason for buying the controller was to play some games off my pc/ps5 libraries, but that didn’t go so well upon trying. I was always too tired to play something intense.
So I thought I would play some pokemon games on an emulator as these were the ones that actually brought me joy as a kid.
I have played pokemon games since my childhood (Pokemon Crater, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Crystal, and even some Pokemon Go over the years), and I loved them all.
2/8 of those had no story; Gen 3 games had the best story ~ Emerald being my personal favourite growing up. I haven’t played anything after Gen 3, simply because my family couldn’t afford the next-gen Nintendo console back then, and there weren’t any great emulators for it at least to my knowledge. That inaccessibility cut me off from the franchise.
I came across this rom while trying to decide which of the official games I should start playing. Every comment or post surrounding this game was positive. The summary was enticing as well. So I went and downloaded it.
I had forgotten how and why I love these games, and Pokemon Unbound reminded me exactly about all those things.
Everything about this game is amazing!
The story is as good or even better than Emerald’s for me ~ I just wish there was more of it before becoming champion.
The music, the map, the hilarious dialogues, the mods for convenience, the challenging battles, puzzles, everything.
This is a better game than any of the official pokemon games that I have played so far.
I haven’t enjoyed relaxed gaming sessions so much since forever. When everything around me is changing so fast, this game slowed it down for me and helped me cope with life.
I am now looking forward to the post-game content and learning more about the Gen 4-8 Pokemon ❤️ I hope there is more to come from this team.
This game will never be forgotten by me.
Short version: I loved the game, it’s perfect and better than anything official. It got me through a difficult time and revived my love for the franchise. Also I finally became Borrius’ Champion. :)
