I'm digging the new tasks. It's exposing me to games, books, movies, podcasts, musicians, and shows I have't seen/read/played/heard before. I'm going to have to get to it and try it all out.

Nothing but a money grab

There's only two ways to play this game: wait hours to complete simple tasks or pay money to advance.

New adventure fun (0 more)

Simplified gameplay (0 more)

It lacks the challenge of former games, and the need to perform tasks to get to gym leaders grew tedious. That said if I don't compare it to others in the series, I enjoyed it as a game with pokemon. And so many new cute pokemon too!

At their best, apps make our lives easier, more organised, and perhaps even save us some money in the meantime.

During the holidays, they can keep the jumble of tasks, gifts, to-do lists, and appointments straight. Especially for the hectic months ahead, it pays to have the inanimate helpers of apps on your side.

Lots of new fighters (0 more)

Many fighters are now duplicates of similar charters (1 more)

Characters are given out after set amounts of play time

New characters are far too easy to unlock, in previous games you had to complete specific tasks with specific characters, but now new characters appear approximately every ten minutes of play time

Yes, people DO still play Pokemon Go! Lots of people! Check out any monthly community day, and you'll be surrounded by other Pokemon trainers, loving the game just as much as you will. It's an easy, fun game to play. The games tasks and Pokemon get updated often enough to keep you interested. There have been some issues that people have complained about after the last major update, but I haven't had them, and hopefully for those that have, they'll get updated and fixed soon. Nothing terrible, just a little annoying for this short bit of time. The game, itself, is great fun. Lots of Pokemon around to catch, and lots of goals and tasks to achieve. It's a really fun app!

TV Show Rating

Hilariously bonkers

My friends raved about this show and I was forced slightly against my will to watch an episode, but in the end I was very glad I did.

This show is absolutely hilarious and has such a simple premise - comedians undertaking deceivingly simple or bizarre tasks to be scored by the Taskmaster himself Greg Davies. The tasks themselves vary, and so do the results which makes for very entertaining television. Watching fairly to very intelligent people come up with the silliest, stupid or downright convoluted solutions to basic tasks is so much fun. I also love Greg Davies’ very harsh wit and criticism, and how badly some of the contestants take it. Some series are funnier than others, and series 1 has so far been my favourite, but all are very entertaining to watch. Watching this show makes me think this could be what it’s like to work behind the scenes in escape rooms or the Crystal Maze experience, people trying to solve puzzles in the strangest of ways. Fair play to Alex Horne for managing to keep a straight face most of the time!

If you’re looking for something silly and lighthearted to watch, then I’d definitely suggest giving this a go.

I love Tim Key and Romesh Ranganathan too - Tim’s cheating is hilarious and Romesh is downright scary!

I like Taskmaster but after watching it since the beginning It's starting to get a bit tedious. It also depends on who is on it as to how good it is.
