    Fast-Paced Splat-Em Up

    Splatoon 2 is quite the addictive experience in that the gameplay is fairly simple, yet entirely immersive. The multiplayer sessions are quick and exciting. It's very easy to jump in to almost any online mode and connect with friends through the Switch. (The smartphone chat app, however, leaves me wanting something a bit more robust. I hope Nintendo responds to player feedback to better integrate it seamlessly down the road.) The various matches in this game are reminiscent of a real-world paintball war, but without the physical bruising, of course. The character and level designs are both artful and quirky, as they should be given the unique premise. I have to say, as someone who never played the first iteration, I'm really enjoying this.

    I absolutely adore what this game is about and what it has to offer. The game's world and appearance is very colorful and rich in contrast, it attracts the eyes of all audiences. The single player mode offers a solid and satisfying experience that captures interests in the game's lore and story. Where this game really shines though is in its multiplayer. With a large variety of weapons, selection of maps and multiplayer modes, the multiplayer experience for an individual can be a fun and challenging experience. The added feature of an online co-op multiplayer mode is a wonderful addition to the game and a pleasant surprise that I didn't see coming with the game. This game and what it has to offer is a must for any Nintendo Switch console owner.

    Splatoon is a bright, colorful shooter that receives constant and continuing support from Nintendo. There's a balance between map control and movement and with the nature of inking every surface in sight it adds a sense of verticality that a lot of other shooters don't have. There are a few strange decisions such as limited times for Salmon Run mode, not being able to change weapons without fully backing out of a lobby, not being able to quit out of a lobby until it fills or times out, etc.

    THE GAME IS REALLY FUN TO PLAY. IT HAS ONLINE BATTLES TO COMPETE WITH FRIENDS AS WELL AS A STORY MODE TO KEEP GAMERS ON THEIR TOES. HOURS UPON HOURS OF FUN. HIGHLY RECOMENDED FOR THE NINTENDO SWITCH.

    Great game for all ages. My daughter never really likes video games til she tried this one. The design and music are still the best. Still fresh from the banal mainstream shooting game like Call of Duty and others.

    Another great hit for Nintendo's newest console comes in the form of a sequel to there popular title Splatoon just as good as the first with even more customization options. Side note though chat feature does suck

    Splatoon 2 is nintendo's spin on a competitive shooter. It's a game with good old nintendo style charm . Bright colors and cutesy characters are all around. There is some hidden dark themes in this game but they are meant to go over the average person's head. This game is very much fun an addicting as there is a cooperative online 4 player mode and a 4 vs 4 player online competitive mode to complement that single player story mode. The game also features frequent updates and monthly events that gives players ingame prizes to participate or win. There is a lot of customization for your created character from the clothes to even the type and color of your chosen splat weapon. Overall Splatoon 2 is a must have for Nintendo Switch owners

    Splatoon 2 is even better then the first game! It's well worth the purchase if you were a fan of the first Splatoon or looking to get into it for the first time if you are a fan of any type of game in this genre.

    This is a fun game that you can play casually or competitively. There is so much to unlock along the way, and the battles are so much fun! Splatfests are probably the main attraction for me. So much energy! 9/10!

    The market is flooded with first person shooters like Call of Duty. This series is a refreshing break away from that. It improves on so many aspects from the first game, and the first game was wildly impressive.

    One of, if not THE BEST game on Switch

    Fresh art direction, exciting and innovative shooter style gameplay with super fun mechanics. Plays great from anyone 6 to 60. I first played this in 2017 (bought it at Gamestop before I started using BestBuy), and recently bought it again as an XMas present this year. My most played game on Switch to this day and continue to play it a few times a week. The story mode is just "fine" in it, but acts as great tutorial if you're nervous to jump into the fantastic online play. You do need an Switch Online sub to play those modes, but it's welllll worth it. Either this or Fire Emblem 3 Houses are my favorite things on Switch.

    I've never played any of the previous iterations of Splatoon. I will say this game is super fun to play with friends. I have put over 100 hours into the game and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

    This is a kid friendly shooter with the objective to "paint the floor" your teams color. 4v4 matches on a course that will remind you of a elaborate skate park makes this game a ton of fun for any age above 5. You can level up your clothing and there is a lot of paint gun options like a roller (think melee sword that splatters paint at close range) brushes, (fast and furious painting) sniper paint guns, automatic guns, shotgun style paint guns and more. Really a lot of fun. You can swim as a squid very fast in your own teams paint color, and even teleport to a teammate in a match. Great balance and dynamic courses make this a solid game for most any skill level. Totally worth it.
