    Great throwback to my childhood. My kids love it, but were demoralized with all of the back and forth from the lab after the trips. The graphics are refreshing. Fun to see the Pokemon I love in a new light! Getting some rare shots is always exciting and it's pretty cool we can save the photos and share them to our phones. As I mentioned earlier, the back and forth from the lab is a little annoying. If you don't go back and do certain things, you won't unlock other aspects of the game. So definitely not something smaller kids like mine (6 y/o) enjoyed. However, the game is a great little treat for any Pokemon fans to just sit back, relax and enjoy the view taking some photos. Not much more to it.

    Great sequel, very replayable. Love the nighttime versions of the levels. The Pokémon have fun behaviors to observe

    The game is a nice throwback to the old game. The only thing is it requires a lot of memory to store the pictures you take. You will probably need an extra SD card for this game. Otherwise, I highly suggest this game.

    This game is a blast and the pictures you take can go right on social media, it's what you expect although I wish progression were faster at times as I didn't love having to redo the same areas early on.

    I saw a lot of people get excited about this over nostalgia. I'm not sure if I'm in the minority, but even though I just turned 30, I never played this game when I was little. Not sure if it's due to the lack of nostalgic fondness, I found this game quite boring. Watching pokemons in their "habitats" was cute, but there are so many far more exciting $60 games out there. I regretted buying this game, because I spent maybe 5 hours playing it and now I'm already bored and don't want to keep going again.

    If you wanted more of the original, here it is. Relaxing trip down memory lane with a little more depth and a welcome graphical upgrade. Can be repetitive, but addicting trying to outdo yourself with the photos you take. Overall a chill, fun time. Nothing revolutionary, but no real complaints which says more than most AAA games.

    One of the most relaxing and entertaining games I’ve played in awhile. Watching the Pokémon interact with their environment and each other naturally is an absolute delight and the best part of the game. My biggest concern was playtime, but the game surprised me with far more content than I was expecting, and it never felt like I was grinding or wasting my time when I was working towards progression.

    The nostalgia that this game brings of the OG Pokemon Snap for the N64 is just phenomenal. It starts to get a little complicated down the line, but once you get the hang of the unlocked mechanics it's just a matter of getting the perfect shots

    This is by far my childs favorite game. Its not about battling pokemon but simply taking their photos in their environment It teaches an actual great deal about composition and timing to get the best photos. Highly reccomend!

    This is good fun. The game feels short with how much fun you'll be getting out of it. Excellent update on the original concept. Plenty of fun moments to capture, Get snapping some pokemon.

    Excellent reboot of the Pokemon Snap game from Nintendo 64. Lots of the same fun mechanics and gameplay with a more modern twist and nice additions to keep the game fresh.

    As someone who played the original Pokemon Snap, this was a love letter to the original's fans, while also bringing in new items, abilities, and ideas. It is a fantastic example of innovation, using the IP in more ways than just the mainlinr games. Would definitely recommend picking this up!
