Pokémon’s free mobile card game is nostalgic fun, but watch your wallet
What’s sure to be mobile gaming’s next big thing is here. Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocketis out now and it brings the classic tabletop deckbuilding game to your phone. It’s a free app that lets players open booster packs, collect cards, and play a streamlined version of the card game. On top of that, it’s full of social hooks and ways for players to show off their favorite cards. It’s about as much of a slam dunk as you could imagine for a mobile game, to the point where I’m surprised it’s taken The Pokémon Company this long to make it.
