As a social game, POKO - Play With New Friends is a simpler alternative to
Minecraft
or
Roblox
, letting you hang out with people but
without the virtual world
or the need for moving and controllable avatars.
Simple mechanics, simple socializing
As a game, POKO - Play With New Friends
does not offer anything exciting or engaging
. There are no quests to complete or no story to follow. It only contains
minigames
that are reminiscent of other games like
Fruit Ninja
or
Candy Crush Saga
. As you compete with its large player base, you can also
see your level against your opponent’s
, giving you an idea of who you’re going up against.
It does, however, have
a simple interface
that makes navigation effortless, even for inexperienced users. Once you open the app, you immediately see the games available for you to play with others. This is one of three pages, as seen on the bottom of the screen. Also available is a
page for your conversations
and
a page that shows your friends
on the platform.
As a social platform, its user base is
not divided into servers
that maintain a maximum player capacity nor does it divide its players by geographical areas. This means that you are randomly paired with any of the thousands of its players across the globe. While there’s
no tool for bridging the language barrier
, the opportunity to meet people from other places is freely available in this app.
Compete against the world
As a game that
includes social media elements
, POKO - Play With New Friends is a promising platform for fun and exciting ways to meet and interact with new people from around the world. While it serves
a rehash of already existing games
, it has a simple interface that makes you smoothly move between playing and communicating. This is a must-try for people looking to connect with new people.
