- Pokémon Friends offers a relaxing daily puzzle experience
- The game launched immediately after announcement for iOS and Android
- Players solve puzzles while collecting materials to craft knitted Pokémon plushies
Typically, Pokémon Presents focuses on announcing upcoming games that require waiting periods. But today brought a pleasant surprise - Pokémon Friends appeared suddenly, already available for download.
The instant availability means you can start playing immediately. Whether you should depends on your Pokémon enthusiasm and puzzle game preferences. If both appeal to you, it's certainly worth trying.
The game features an impressive library of over 1200 puzzles with varying difficulty levels - from quick solves to truly challenging brain teasers. Designed for regular play rather than marathon sessions, it includes a daily stamp system to encourage consistent engagement.

A charming cognitive challenge with cozy rewards
The experience combines puzzle-solving with creative collection. Rather than catching traditional Pokémon, you'll be gathering crafting materials to create adorable knitted versions. These handmade plushies can then decorate your in-game home.
Your virtual space won't be just a plushie warehouse though. The game includes various furniture and wallpaper options, letting you create well-designed interiors beyond simply displaying your yarn-based Pokémon collection.
