Brawlout - Nintendo Switch

I consider this game to be a poor man’s version of Smash Bros. The only reason I bought this game at the time was because there were no other fighting games on Switch like Smash Bros at that time. My favorite part of this game were the guest characters from the games Hyper Light Drifter, Yooka-Laylee and Guacamelee. Unfortunately, that’s about where the praise stops. The moves are limited, I experienced lag pretty frequently and the original characters were pretty forgettable. This could be a great game franchise if they really polished the game and marketed it as the Indie version of Smash Bros bringing in a slew of well known indie characters. I would have loved to have seen characters from Hollow Knight, Undertale, Shantae, Shovel Knight and Celeste to name a few.

This is a really fun and polished platform fighter. I really enjoyed my time with it and honestly it's a game that everyone should play...except that Smash Bros exists. That's really the only reason I knocked a star off too. The game is great, but there's very little reason to buy this with Smash Bros on the market. Now, to be fair I'm rating this 4 stars because I'm reviewing the Switch version specifically, however, I'd give the PS4 or XB1 versions 5 star ratings since there's nothing as monstrous as Smash Bros on those platforms. Still a fantastic game, but if you have Smash Bros then there's really no need to pick this up unless you REALLY love platform fighters.

Great job thanks so much for the game and service . Great great great

It's a party brawler akin to smash that supports 4 player local multiplayer. Worth it if you have friends who can play and enjoy the technical aspects of fighting games. Not too much content overall, however, and the unlock mechanics for additional content are weak. Probably worth the price if you can play it with a few friends every now and then. Once smash comes out this game will be forgettable.

Fun game got it for a great price my son enjoys it. I would recommend for the younger age group probably not for teen. But that’s my opinion.

Just because it's not the popular choice. I like the characters myself.

I bought this game, because I needed a Brawler that would fill in for Super Smash Bros until it was released on the Switch. I was disappointed that it wasn't more like Super Smash, but it was still a pretty good Brawler. Also the fighters are cool looking, and they each have their own unique fighting style. If you like the franchises these characters came from, this might be a good game for you to pick up. If you are just looking for an alternative to Super Smash bros, download the Free game, Brawlhala.

Surprised to see availability in stores!! Problem is everyone is waiting for the next Super Smash Bros but that’s 6 months away & this is a good game regardless for you brawler fans!
