    I purchased Pokemon Violet, so I also needed Scarlet to catch everything in this game also. Many hours will fly by as you hunt around the different areas finding Pokemon and having battles. Enjoy the ride!

    It's glitchy but that's the point. I love this game when it came out.

    A close second to the best Pokémon game I’ve ever played! See my Violet review, as the only thing that sets Scarlet a little behind is that the color of the school uniform sucks compared to Violet’s!

    It is an open world Pokemon game which are really enjoyed despite its flaws. Hopefully updates can help with the lag.

    I love the open world aspect of the game but it definetely feels like an unfinished game. They couldve waited another year to release the game i think.

    The latest installment of Pokemon is pretty wild, getting more out of your money indeed. I actually have been looking forward to this version and I'd definitely recommend purchasing a copy. Thanks for reading.

    Best Pokemon game in years

    The gameplay is probably the best it has been since Gen 2, catching Pokemon has never been more fun. The endgame stuff after the Elite 4 is also great, hopefully they expand more on it with DLC. Overall this is like a cross between Legends Arceus (which was great) and Sword/Shield (which IMO were a big let down). The future of this series is bright. Now hire some capable developers or delay the game next time, it does not run well at all and this is not due to the Switch.

    A fun game, a great new expansion to the series. Feels like it could have used a little more top end polish.

    Fun game, shuts down randomly sometimes, but I haven't had any "unknown error occured" followed by a restart, while I was in the middle of accomplishing anything. Just while running around.

    The game doesn't run consistently well. And there are many bugs as of now. Switch hardware can't keep up and/or the game isn't optimized correctly

    My 10 year old has been epilating it a lot since we got it. Sometimes the game is hard and he got frustrated but that is part of playing a video game!

    With Scarlet and Violet, you’ll be traversing an open world of Pokémon game and be able to control exactly where you want to go, when you want to go, and how fast you go there. The game does not run very well but at the same time you probably only care about the Pokémon. This game does show that Pokémon as a whole needs to be better for its audience and change the development pattern to ensure their games play proper in the future.

    The story was pretty good. The visuals are not great. The frame rate stutters. Some cool new Pokémon.

    Core gameplay is fun but there is no ignoring the numerous graphical issues that plague the game. But it's still fun and addictive as you'd expect from a Pokemon game.

    A little buggy and has some low frame rates, but still fun to play. Best one since sun and moon.
