I'm exactly in the same situation than you: i've just played the red version more than ten years ago as a child without knowing the real working of the ing statistics (simply capturing and obtaining the victory on the league).
Arrived here, I've rediscovered improved maps and graphics from my childhood (especially animated by the presence of many other players), however I've the feeling to deepen more clearly the game, to perceive better the possibilities and the actions to carry out. And even if, in fact, it's almost the same game, I don't play it in the same way than before so it appears to me so different, certainly more complicated and demanding.
Just happiness ! :Angel:
Enjoy ! :y:
