Was playing game, got to the end. Suddenly flash crashed. I thought it was intentional so as to poke fun at the server troubles at Niantic... but no it just turns out my computer sucks. Still 5/5 experience.

And good old completionist me spends ten minutes looking for that One... Last... Pokemon... before I found out it was at the start of the game. !@%@ it.

As someone who has wanted to install that blasted game for about a month and then uninstalled it in 15 minutes I can wholeheartedly say the dumbest thing about it are the "landmarks". Sure, the fact that it's a boring tedious mess is true and I liked that it allowed for some competitive banter between my 35+ year old workmates but damn, those landmarks kill my brain. I will 5/5 your game because of how unexpectedly fun it is to play and how spot-on some of the commentary is. You should make it more clear that you can change the controls in the title screen.

I give up, the game keeps crashing my browser - I guess it happens when I talk twice to the same person, but I won't double-check.

5/5 Very short, but very funny! I don't regret a moment of it. 2500/2500, thanks to my years diligently looking for things in NES games! :D

@gablett: Yes, you were in the target demographic. Pokemon was targeted at kids and teenagers. Being 30 myself, I was at ground zero when red&blue took my middle-school by storm.

My comments got erased somehow. I didn't know that could happen. The important one was about a top post by glyphgryph which intentionally gave bad information. Glyphgryph's post has since been voted off the top list, so good job for noticing!

I think you've got your age stereotypes mixed up. He is in a nursing home, so must be in his 80s. If he's "half a century out of its target demographic" then you're saying that pokemon players are in their 30s. I am 30 and I was out of pokemon's target demographic when it was first released!

Plugin crashed and I lost all progress... I don't know how this game is, probably I was near the end, but still... NEEDS SAVE FEATURE!

I think that for most non-idle, non-mmo games, gameplays and how long it has been out is a better indicator of how good of a game it is than rating.
