Second iOS Pokémon Game Released

[Maura]

The Pokémon Company has today released its second Pokémon iOS game, entitled Camp Pokémon, reports MacRumors. The game is supposed to be aimed at children between the ages of 6 and 8, but Pokemaniacs span the generations, so I’m sure fans of every age will be excited about this release.

It’s also remarkable as it’s only the second Nintendo-related game to be released on iOS, with many fans crying out for Nintendo to allow some of its classic characters such as Mario and Luigi to appear on iOS. And while it’s The Pokémon Company and not Nintendo that controls the lucrative and popular franchise, it’s still a franchise that is very closely related to Nintendo.

Gameplay in Camp Pokémon sees players exploring an island crammed full of Pokémon-themed activities, including searching for Pokémon, as well as various Pokémon mini-games.

Here are some of the game’s key features, courtesy of MacRumors:

- Find the Pokémon: Use a spyglass to search for virtual Pokémon and earn their Pins. Earn Rewards to unlock new levels and search for other Pokémon in different environments.
- Poké Ball Throw: Launch Poké Balls at cardboard cutouts of Pokémon hiding in the grass and knock them down. Earn Rewards to unlock the Rock and Water environments.
- Pokémon Evolutions: Test your knowledge of Pokémon Evolutions by choosing the correct Pokémon missing from the Evolution chain.
- Battle Matchups: Practice type matchups, an important skill in Pokémon battles, by choosing which type is strong against the given Pokémon.
- Pokémon in Focus: Choose the Pokémon that matches the shadow projected on the tent.
- My Cabin: In this home base, campers can find their Pin Book, Photo Book, and Bulletin Board.
- Photo Booth: Create camp memories by taking photos with the iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch camera, adding stickers to the images, and saving the pictures to the app’s Photo Book or the Camera Roll on the camper’s device.
- Mystery Cave: What could be hiding in the Mystery Cave? To find out, campers will need to earn the right to enter!
