From Crema: Go explore the new routes, raid the new Lair or finally pet the dog in Temtem.

Temtem offers a refreshing take on the monster-collection genre, but is it enough to stand on its own against similar titles?
TheGamer's Ben Sledge says: "I’m playing Temtem while I wait for Pokemon Scarlet & Violet. For the most part, that’s because Legends: Arceus was a great concept but isn’t very replayable and I’d rather crawl naked across a field of Ferrothorn than play Brilliant Diamond again. I spent longer with Sword & Shield’s competitive modes than most people, but even I have tailed off ranked at this point. So, a Pokemon-like it is.
I’m enjoying Temtem so far, much more than I did when I played in beta. I love watching other tamers’ Temtem follow them around, as it inspires me to level up and evolve my own party so I, too, can show off an awesome monster to strangers over the internet. I’m just cool like that. The battles are great too, offering far more strategy than any Pokemon game I’ve ever played (official ones, at least), engaging me and forcing me to think carefully about my moves in even the most basic matches."
