    The sequel to Breath of the Wild did not disappoint! The graphics, cheezy storyline and adorable side quests all made a comeback and are very enjoyable to do. Highly recommend! Playing BOTW is not required but will give some backstory to some characters.

    After the first game Tears of the Kingsom adds so much to the formula. The early puzzles add a lot of physical manipulation to the solutions. The new abilities add so much to the game. If you enjoyed the first game Im sure you'll enjoy this one. A must buy from Best Buy.

    This is the most addicted I've been to a game. Which is a good/bad thing. It's because it's ridiculously fun to play and mess around with. However, I know a lot of others are pleased by the story but If you're a long-time Zelda fan looking for lore--I think this game falls short on relating to the rest of the series in a satisfactory way. It's much better to see as totally separate. It's still worth a play though for all the fun it provides. Anyone worried it won't be as fun to explore as the original game, I would say there's enough new map and content to make it feel new despite the shared world.

    A true masterpiece. Even with hardware limitations in Switch, it feels very polished with tremendous quality (graphic, story, music/sound, performance) as a final product. Most importantly, the game is FUN to play! All the glowing this game got are not hype but truth.

    Been a Zelda fan since I was about the age one would set out to defeat the dark lord Ganondorf. This game is easily one of the best games I have ever played, every moment is fulfilling whether it be solving a puzzle, slaying some monsters, or simply admiring the world.

    I love this game! The quality was good. I don't think it could've been bad because Best Buy makes you bring up a placeholder for the game (so theft doesn't happen, which is slay), and it was good as new!

    This is a masterful game that brings a true sequel-like experience to the Breath of the Wild game that I so painstakingly beat on my Nintendo Switch. Easy 10/10, good game mechanics, lots to do, challenging gameplay, and exciting rewards.

    The vast majority of open world games are cookie cutter, soulless icon todo lists, but Tears of the Kingdom follows in Breath of the Wild's footsteps and reinvents the game yet again. This is the most creative and rewarding open world gameplay around. Highly recommended!

    TOTK is a game changer. People giving one star because of the delayed delivered are insane! This is not the rare the service, this is to rate the game. And TOKT is amazing! I won’t rush to finish the game like I did with BOTW. Want to enjoy every inch of Hyrule this time.

    More of that Breath of the Wild Goodness Huge map offers alot of exploration at your own pace. Utra Hand is a fun enough tool that opens up alot of open ended puzzle designs Should provide a good experience for a wide age range.

    One of the greatest games to ever be created for the switch. I highly recommend!! and please play on the tv and not on the handheld consol. The handheld does not do this game justice!

    1. The game itself was worth the wait. 10/10 recommend if you love Zelda, especially Breath of the Wild. 2. So glad I pre-ordered with Best Buy - The experience was seamless and pickup was quick and easy. Always such a great experience when I pick up an order in store.

    This game takes everything that made Breath of the Wild great and expands upon it, while also adjusting some of the common complaints to not be as much of an issue. I’m not far into the game, but that’s because there’s constantly something on the side to do.
