Amazing fun game for everyone! The multiplayer and single player modes are everything purr

This is my first Splatoon game so I'm judging it based on what I've experienced so far. In terms of game play its fluid, fast pace and addicting which is surprising for a shooter coming from Nintendo however there's some issues I can't get over it. For a multiplayer game, there's no split screen or party based multi player vs which seems counter productive for a Switch marketed for multiplayer fun. The second issue is there's a small rotation of maps to play and that it changes every hour. LIKE WHY!!!!! This makes Splatoon more of a short bursts type of game instead of something for long sessions. Overall Splatoon is a good game and I still play Splatoon when needing to get a quick game in before work but this is not my go to game when at home as it can be repetitive.

As a casual player who does not enjoy other FPS because of the competitiveness, Splatoon is a breath of fresh air. The game is easy enough to learn. The goal of the game is to "paint" the most area of the battleground with your paintball gun. This makes it easier and more enjoyable for those who are not good at "shooting" other players to make contribution to the team. Online match-up is quick and 3 minutes per match time limit makes it suitable for a portable platform where you can pick up and play a quick game.

Great multiplayer game, I was surprised by how easy it was to get the basics down. And it is highly addicting as well, made it to level seven in first sitting. The story/ single player mode leaves something to desire though

Adding a single player element was great, but being so starved for AAA games on the switch makes this game stand out a bit more. This is the only switch game with even the slightest thought given to multiplayer online play.

Splatoon 2 is a game I should have picked up long ago.. Great multi and single player gameplay.

I never got the chance to play the first Splatoon when it originally released on the Wii U. I knew it was a hit and I couldn't really figure out why just from watching other people play. After picking up Splatoon 2 and hopping online, I quickly realized why so many people love this game. It has an addicting online multiplayer unlike anything I've ever played before. The concept of covering the field in paint is satisfying and addicting. The matches are quick and it is easy to get sucked in for hours.

Disclaimer: I purchased Splatoon 2 as a gift. I have not personally played Splatoon 2 or its precursor, Splatoon. This was purchased as a birthday present for a friend's child. He had previously been playing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild near endlessly and this game managed the herculean task of stealing away his attention. It has been 2 weeks now, and Zelda has sat untouched. Having not played this game personally, I cannot give my own opinions, however you can't argue with results!

It's a fun game for kids and adults alike. Online play is where the game comes together.

As a fan of the previous Splatoon, I was very excited for a sequel to arrive in the future and as I've got a chance to finally get my Switch & this game, I admit that it was worth the wait! It plays as good, even better actually, as the first game and has some addictive new modes and improved competitive play along with a better story mode. Would totally recommend this to both new players and fans of the franchise and recommend this as a first game to pick up if you're still looking for a Nintendo Switch.

Single player is fun for sure but online is where all the fun and chaos is. Good third person shooter for the switch

Having as much fun as when I was playing Splatoon 1. Making the game mobile because of the Switch makes the game so much funner

I can't tell if I'm a kid or a squid. This game is a lot of fun. It's like the first game but with some improvements like new weapons, abilities, and game modes. It runs well on the Switch in docked and undocked modes.

I am ready enjoying this game. The single player has come challenge to it but I love the new Salmon Run Game (PvE with others).

Probably one of the best games out for the switch thus far. And the fact that you can take this anywhere and just play is amazing! The multiplayer online is what is good about this game, everything else is just ok.

Awesome game. Really fun and competitive. It's satisfying to spray colors everywhere!

This review is based on the kids’ reaction and affinity to the game. Both my 7 and 10 year old boys love this game, often taking turns to play the online co-op rounds. The graphics are awesome and the concept (the characters are all squids) is mild and fun in nature unlike the popular xbox/playstation RPG games. Highly recommend it to switch owners but the only downside is that two players cannot play simultaneously (kids tell me u can on the Wii-U consoles with the original Splatoon).

The multiplayer is a blast and the single player game is a lot of fun too. If you enjoyed Splatoon you will love the sequel.

Although this game makes it pretty clear that it's heavily focused on the main Meat "The Multiplayer". And encourages you to play online multiplayer. So you can invest in that Exquisite #NintendoOnline Membership. Multiplayer is a blast especially if you can join with some of your comrades in a voice call. "With highly intensive n' explosive battles". Has tons a variety and there's a lot of value. However as shown it's not that great when it comes to the single player department (offline). Lacking in the level design is a bit too basic for my taste and is relatively on the short end. But hey there's a cool $20 expansion that's apparently neat and addresses theses issues. Yay! :3

Fun little single player, but great multiplayer. Short matches without hearing some kid telling me he slept with my mom.
