To say this isn't the average shooter would be an understatement. The game circles around a story mode and an online mode, the latter of which is more important for the game in general. Characters are more interested in being "fresh" than saving a princess or a kingdom or a galaxy. All in all, it's a bit of a strange title, especially coming from the Big N, but it highlights the fact that Nintendo can- and will- create new stuff. The characters are in their own way very endearing, dialogue is amusing, the gameplay is solid, and the graphics are excellent (I might even say gorgeous). My only major complaints are that the story quest is disappointingly short, although there are bonus items in each level for the completionist to come back and that if you like taking other people on in battle you need to stick with the online games. Local multiplayer is very limited. If Nintendo ever shuts down the servers for this game without patching in a game-changing update, Splatoon will one day be borderline useless software, and that is a liability for long term players. But that possibility seems years away, and for the time being, I'd recommend Splatoon to anyone who wants to try something new, or wants a shooter game without gratuitous violence, swearing, and innocence ruining kiddie gamers. The main objective is to join your team and cover the playing field in your color using a wide variety of weapons ranging from the obvious to the practically and delightfully ridiculous. It's hard to explain, so try before you buy and see how it fits you. I wasn't disappointed, and I look forward to the next game in Nintendo's newest IP. Stay fresh!Read full review

This game is a lot of fun . . . but the main reason we bought the game was we thought it would be an awesome multi-age multiplayer game. So far, we can't figure out how to set it up as multiplayer. We are bummed.

The game only has two modes a single player which can be accessed from the hub and is an entirely separate beasts, and the multiplayer the heart of the game and without internet access the games becomes much more bare bones, the multiplayer is tons of fun but the stages you play on aren't set for a time before shuffling themselves so game play can get repetitive. The controls are wonderful and the gyros are surprisingly accurate, I wouldn't dream of playing without them. In all a fun time but can get a little boring when stages aren't shuffled enough

I have played lots of shooting games, This one really teaches to power of team work, and to be fashionable with an awesome collection of clothing, shoes,caps, and weapons. The challenges on single player are just as awesome as the multiplayer, or go head to head with some one, play hide and seek.also great little mini games.

I was on to the final boss by the fourth day I played and I think it was very fun and I got the scroll on every single level except for the second to last before the last boss and I’m going to go back and get that as soon as I can the final boss is extremely hard though and I am definitely hard for me to be but I’m gonna try next time I can. See ya!
