Since the Game Perfect World and Qworld, Perfect World Ltd. is well known in South Asia. Many USA players would bear the lag and would take the risk to play the PH version. Finally they released the Peferect World International.

Let us take a look at their latest product, an upgraded version of Q-world Online, which is now open beta in mainland China: Kou Dai Xi You, temperilay we name it: Pocket WJ.

Character Sheet

Nothing creative, just like the normal products from Perfect world, there are three races you can choose: Human, God and Devel. In each race, you can choose 6 classes. Different from other games by Perfect World, there will be a pet born with you. You can input your birthday when creating your character.

First Log in

When you first log in the game, if you play Phoenix Dynasty Online, you will have ideas what it is - Five Element System. In this game, designers "borrowed" a lot of concepts from other Chinese MMORPG. The designers also considered the convienence for the newbies and  want the players to read the basic information when logged in. But it’s really hard to find "X" button and I doubt if players will read it since most of us just click the "X" button and continue the training.

Training

We have just completed first couple of levels and training seems to be easy. Just Talk to the NPC who has something on  the top of their head and follow the quest. Since they have GPS system, just click the NPC in green name in quest pannel and you will go to find the guy easily.

But just a few minutes, we feel the game is boring. Quests are just grindy quests like they have in Q-World, Chibi Online etc. We didn’t find anything outside the box. Maybe the only interesting thing is the cute pets.

Graphics and Effects

Since they use the same game engine, the effects are just as awesome as in other perfect world games. You can see the effects from the following screenshots.

Pets

The game company advertised this game as the most cutest 3D pet game. We have noticed that they "borrowed" the eudemons concept from Eudemons Online. You can summon your pet and combine the pet to your character. You can capture all monsters to be your pet, which feature could be found from the game called Legend of Golden Plume.

Pets are divided into 9 factions. Each faction has restrictions and generations. This is fun when PK. You have to know this when you see your enemy’s pet.

Fly

As you know in Perfect World Online, there is a race have special ability and they can float and fly in the sky. In this game, no matter what race you choose, you can have the ability to fly. When you reach Level 10, you are able to accept a quest and then you can fly. The following are the images when you fly.

Conclusion

Pocket Western Journey is just another Perfect World’s combination product. They borrowed a lot of concepts welcomed in Chinese market and impliment them into the game. But as to game play itself, there isn’t any break-through. More and more players are tired such kind of games. If you like pokeman, you should try it when you have a free afternoon and decide whether you are willing to stay or remove it from your hard disk.
