The Connection Grade™ breakdown
Four things we grade, each one judged on what this game actually does. Open any row to see why.
Because the game is strictly single-player with no native co-op, shared play relies entirely on couch co-piloting — trading the controller between routes or consulting together on elemental match-ups before tough Tyrant encounters.
Skills this builds
- Debating team composition and type coverage across nine distinct elements
- Handing off the controller between wild catching routes and high-stakes tamer battles
- Laughing together at the companion character Coco's fourth-wall-breaking dialogue
Try this together
When you hit a difficulty spike against a Greater Drake, pause before attacking and map out a switch strategy together instead of brute-forcing with one monster.
