Confusing cash grab of a game
I don’t mind micro-transactions in a game but this game is poorly explained even after a painfully long tutorial. The core game mechanic seems to be gem matching (simple and easy to understand) but in the first 15 minutes I saw that screen twice and it forced me to pick specific matches so I wasn’t even playing. Then we get into the pile of crap that is a million ways to pay for things that weren’t explained in the tutorial. This includes paying for Jaeger repair so even playing well won’t get you out of them hitting you up for cash in the first 30 minutes.
Pacific Rim is great and the art in the game is pretty cool but in the end, it feels like watching a movie where they stop before every action scene and force you to pay to go through a maze before you get to see a watered down version of what they promised.
