You can combine Mortys to make stronger ones through genetic engineering, similar to Pokemon evolution. You scour environments for wild Mortys, weaken them, capture them, and make them stronger by winning battles against other trainers. Pockets Mortys isn't quite as strong as a Pokemon clone, as it is an interactive piece of Rick and Morty fan service, but the difference isn't as dramatic as you might think. (Opens in a new window) Read Our Race the Sun (for iPad) Review One nitpick I had with the presentation was the haphazard use of polygonal elements in an otherwise 2D world, but those are hard to notice when I'm chatting it up with Bird Person next to a pathetic Morty daycare center. There's a retro remix of the show's theme song, but also new versions of one-off tracks like Jemaine Clement's trippy David Bowie homage (Opens in a new window) and the soulful soundtrack (Opens in a new window) to Rick's attempted suicide.
Voiced dialogue snippets from Roiland and fellow co-creator Dan Harmon add to the authenticity, and as you read the text you can't help but subconsciously add Rick's trademark belching mid-sentences. Players guide tiny Rick and Morty throughout the overworld, and battles display big images ripped straight out of the show, even though they don't animate.
Every facet of Pocket Mortys feels lovingly crafted by passionate admirers of the show.
It also conveys the show's uniquely dark sense of humor. The premise does more than create an excuse for a parody of Pokemon (called Pocket Monsters in Japan).

Called before the Council of Ricks, a cabal of parallel universe Ricks who don't appreciate one of their running around unsupervised, Rick must build his own team of Mortys and prove his fighting prowess to return home. This time, Rick introduces Morty to the back alley Morty fighting circuit, in which trainers capture alternate versions of Morty from across dimensions to battle it out. Once again, drunken super scientist Rick Sanchez drags his sheepish grandson Morty Smith into some interdimensional shenanigans. The story of Pocket Mortys is ridiculous, so it's perfectly in line with the source material. The final result feels like an ambitious fan project, with the expected disappointments that implies, but surprising successes, too. So with all that in mind, Pocket Mortys, the free Rick and Morty tie-in iPad game shamelessly based on Pokemon, sounded incredibly promising. In addition to being a TV channel, Adult Swim is a surprisingly decent video game publisher. Besides being a hilarious writer and artist, co-creator Justin Roiland is a huge gamer. Rick and Morty, the demented combination of Back to the Future, Doctor Who, and Futurama, is one of the best mature cartoons currently on the air.
