Great game I would totally recommend it. It’s not your typical birds eye view pokemon game so that was interesting and fun to get a new perspective.

Game is fun. Well written. First time playing since original ruby and sapphire and the game was better than I expected.

Its pokemon :3 and i love pokemon. I m ean at its core its the same as other pokemon games but i mean isnt that the charm, we are catching new pokemon and old ones :3

My son had shield already and wanted sword. The game play is similar just different Pokémon to find and different trainers. Great game overall for the Pokemon fan

Such a good Pokémon game. I know some people didn’t enjoy it but I grew up on Pokémon and still really enjoy this one. I especially love all the new ones

Super fun game, can't go wrong!! I played through Shield already but naturally need to complete both. Get it when it goes down to $40 though, as each expansion pass is $30. :-)

Played Shield so I’m now going to try sword. I love the graphics and the storyline. I like that you do not have to rush thru the gyms. Take your time and build your team.

The Wild Area is an exciting innovation for the stagnant series, but feels like an unfinished demo for a true console Pokémon game that isn’t here. You end up with a typical, delightful, handheld-oriented Pokémon experience boosted by a bittersweet taste of the series’ more adventurous future.

Pokemon will always be known by almost everybody and this version is exceptional as always when it comes to Pokemon games. Lots to do and always good replay value with expansion passes!

The first Pokemon entry for consoles is finally here. And while this one might have zero major upgrades from past entries, what it does provide is more great Pokemon action for fans of the series and new Pokemon gamers alike. Recommended for anyone who wants a little collectin', fightin', cute monster ranglin' action.

This game brings nostalgia of when Pokemon first came out on TV seeing the first generation of Pokémon’s. Now, after years of this franchise it still brings joy having able to play this game.

Loved to hate the game, but ultimately it's a Pokemon game. Despite all the hand holding and easy leveling... if you focus on building a team you enjoy using, you'll have tons of fun. Only things I wish they changed were more out-of-pokeball areas as well as the national dex.

Waited forever to play a new gen Pokemon game and the original feeling is still there! Paired with POkemon HOME to transfer from GO and you have an entirely new experience.

Really good game, a little lacking in the post game, but the main game is pretty good. Plus if you’re willing to keep playing there’ll be enough to occupy you for a long time.

If you know you don’t like Pokémon, then you probably won’t like it. If you’re not sure, or if you you you do like Pokémon, it’s a fun game. Lots of small improvements that make the overall experience better. Some people don’t like the cut of the dex, but it really doesn’t matter, and the game does well as it is.

I haven’t played Pokémon since game boy days. This was great to finally play again. Just as good if not better than it ever used to be. Beat the game in a week because i couldn’t put it down.

It’s probably the best experience I’ve had in Pokémon since Pokémon HG/SS. I logged in 30 hours without even trying and I continue to grind out the Pokédex. I can’t wait for the expansions.

Pokemon Sword is another great version of Pokemon. Although some pokemon have been cut, the adventure is still as fun as ever. The main frustration comes from the game restricting which pokemon you can catch based on their level and how many gyms you've completed. Overall though, it's a fun game worth the money.

It was a fun game, it’s a bummer that you need to pay for expansions to play the entire game. I enjoy playing with my buddies son when I’m babysitting him.

If you're a big Pokemon fan, I would definitely recommend purchasing this game along with it's counterpart: Pokemon Shield if you're a super fan.
