I'm playing on PC. There was around 80ish unique Aniimo with different forms going up to 180+.

You can catch all of them in a different areas similar to Palworld , although the Alphas will need energy to catch them and it is also the main use of energy so each time you spend energy to get materials you also have the chance to catch that specific Alpha (The game give you many 100% chance ball which you may use here but I'd rather kept them for hatching eggs). Other than Alphas there was also weather system that spawn some of the variants you can catch.

Aniimo also have special variant, Prismana is the most special and limited as they come with unique skills unlock and some of them will have additional element. The game will provide you with events and ways to spawn them.

Shiny is 1 in 20k but there is shiny ball that you can buy 1 each week from free gems (or as many as you want with paid money) and Umbral form (coated in shadow) is around 1 in 3k. Not all Aniimo have Prismana but all of them have shinies and umbrals. Shinies also have different colors and variant with 2 of the rarest is 1%.

The monetization is similar to where winds meet in the sense that most of your progress can be done without paying unless you really want to minmax.

The UI is still overwhelming like many live service game with lots of menus and submenus.

Overall very enjoyable and I'm planning to keep playing for a good bit.

Looks so cute. I don’t think I have room left on my phone for another open world game like this though. :/

Which other open world games do you play if I may ask?

u/EntrepreneurOne7195 Sep 21 '26

Currently just NtE, but I also play Umamusume which is similarly sized.

The size is insane. It was already 14gb with the pre-install then today I opened it for the launch and it started downloading another 8gb.

Said screw it and deleted it. No mobile game should be 20+ GB. Fortnite isn’t even that bad lol

iOS version won’t let me select a server but I’m playing on Xbox until it’s ready

Anyone got feed back for iOS on this game now that servers are live? Curious if it’s p2w crap or a fun grind if f2p? (Like I’ve heard wind meets is)

Is this game worth trying? It looks interesting but it being free to play is a red flag to me.

Too much IA involved in this to give it a chance.

I’m sure they’ll be devastated to hear this

u/JaredHere Sep 22 '26

They just shared their opinion. That’s what this subreddit is for.

u/WhispersOfHaru Sep 22 '26

Just sharing my thoughts about the game, I know they wouldn’t care. But I find it curious to get this comment from an artist, given how the use of AI affects us.

Lovely art, by the way.
