Pokemon Friendshas a free base version for iOS and Android; however, you are limited to how many plushes you’re able to craft per day, and there are only ten puzzles, 20 plushies, and five types of yarn. You can choose to purchase the Basic Pack or either of the Puzzle On! packs for additional content, so we’re going to cover exactly what’s included in each one here.

For Nintendo Switch players, you can also purchase the base game (the equivalent of the free version combined with the Basic Pack, essentially) and the Puzzle On! add-ons too. Here’s what you need to know.

This yarn will be added if it’s not already available, as it’s also present in other DLC packs.

Are The DLC Packs Worth It?

The Basic Pack is worth having if you’re a mobile user, as without it you have a very limited version of the game that you’ll soon get tired of or frustrated by the unravel limit. $9.99/£9.99 doesn’t seem too steep for a cute little puzzle game with your favourite ‘mon, but when you start to look at the additional DLC, it gets harder to justify.

The Puzzle On Packs each add ten puzzles, 40 plushes, as well as other bits, but $14.99/£14.99feels quite steep for what this is compared to what you get in the Basic Pack, which offers far more for the cost.

Of course, the most popular Pokemon are spread across different packs, so if you want all of the most sought-after ones, you’ll feel compelled to purchase all packs. Gotta untangle them all I guess.

There are a couple of bundles that make the overall cost cheaper if you want to ensure you can fill your collection, but it’s still a hefty price to pay for what it is:
