This game is fun and innocent for young kids. We play it on Nintendo Switch during family parties and the kids (and some adults) enjoy it. No violence, no mature theme, just a wholesome multi-player game that parents can feel safe having their kids play. Only reason for 4 stars is the games are ok, nothing super great that the kids go back to all the time, but during family get-togethers, this is a good social game and time consumer

I have four kids that are 11,10,8, and 2 and they love this game. Even I play with them sometimes. It is a great game for family night because of the different activities. It is easy to play, great for beginners, and family friendly.

Fun game with tons of events to choose from. Like the storyline in story mode. Like the old retro look with going back to 1964 Tokyo Olympics also and seeing differences between current and older events that were included in each games. Many characters to choose from. Hard to not foul in triple jumps or long jump. Takes practice!

Love this game and so do the kids! Top game on the Switch right now lots of fun to be had and good variety! Some are harder than others which ups the challenge level. 6 stars if I could.

My son absolutely loves this game. He can’t wait for the new addition to possibly come out. Hopefully he does just as good in school as he does with his characters in the game. Perfect to keep him interested in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Have kids or plan a family night then purchase this game. It’s easy to play and have multiple games you can choose from to play. Also multiple characters you can use to play with during the game.

This game really is better with others. It does have a story mode, but outside of that, you won't have much to do playing alone. Playing with friends or family is the way to go. The events are individual mini games and most are pretty fun to play. Only a few require motion controls.
One thing that really bothers me is a lack of a tournament or Olympics mode when playing with friends. Instead, you have to exit each mini game and pick another one each time. It could have greatly improved from a mode that lets you play more games at once.
For $30, I'm pretty happy. I was able to play with my wife and have a good time. If you're looking to play alone though, I might skip this one.

As like most, I had high expectations for this game for the Switch. However, I wasn't satisfied and felt the previous Olympic games were much better. It made me want to go back and play the Winter Olympic games on the Wii/DS instead because those games were more fun to me than this one. The retro part seemed pretty cool at first but I never felt a good connection with it and felt it wasn't exactly necessary. Only a small selection of games are retro too. There are many ways to play the games, but the instructions aren't always clear. The motion controls were pretty difficult. I'm just glad that every game includes the option to play the games using only buttons on the controller instead of motion control. The story mode is ok. There are a lot of objects and when speaking to NPCs they give you historical information about Tokyo itself and the real Olympic games. Seems pretty cool at first but there appears to be a lot so I tend to skip them over eventually or just not speak to them anymore. The cool parts were information about the playable characters. Most of the games I felt after playing it once was fun and that was just it for me. Overall, it is nice side game, especially if you love the Mario and Sonic series but I can't justify purchasing for full price for it.

We love this game! It has a lot of different mini games you can try and they're all fun to play, except for a couple of them which will give you vertigo lol.
