In Pokémon Insurgence, players will get to explore a bizarre world where cults and strange Pokémon are everywhere you look. A select few games – like Pokémon Black and Pokémon White – toyed with the idea of setting their stories in a darker world, something that fans appreciated dearly. Find out if you should give this mod a chance with our review! Cults and MonstersĪ common complaint from longtime fans of the Pokémon franchise is that most of the game’s plots seem to be stuck in a perpetually childish world. Unlike so many fan projects that are content with delivering some minor modifications to an existing Pokémon game, Insurgence is a complete revamp that features a wholly new region and a completed – and slightly creepy – storyline. This unique fan game takes the original battling and exploring gameplay loop we’ve come to know and love and turns it upside down, throwing a ton of new mechanics into the mix. Tired of the same old Pokémon formula you’ve experienced for years? Then Pokémon insurgence might help you fall in love with the series once more. I won’t go any further into it to avoid spoilers but the concept is really cool. Instead of beating the big four and then the champion, the player is asked to defeat the previous heroes of the region and take their place as its defender against the cults. They have also done well to create, what seems to be, an almost entirely different system surrounding who the player is and what they are attempting to achieve. I’m not saying it doesn’t have them but it does swing closer to a “darker” and “Adult” theme with ideas like organised religion, cults of oppression, memory loss and death. This title seems to shy away from a lot of the “childish” themes that you could attribute to a normal Pokémon game. There is also a litany of online features found throughout, remember the secret bases from a sentence ago, well you can trade and speak with online players and create a team before inviting them over to your secret base for a fun little get together. Interestingly this also brings a few new features of its own, specifically secret bases and the introduction of Delta Species Pokémon.
