Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Ubisoft, Nintendo [Digital Download]

Anyone who's a fan of the modern XCOM games will likely enjoy this as an XCOM-lite with its own twists, as long as they don't mind the visual direction. Much more challenging than the innocent cover implies, it's a fun turn-based tactical strategy game, with a good amount of depth and thought put into the gameplay. Story is basic and nothing special. Characters have quite a bit of personality. Soundtrack is well made and fits the setting. Probably my biggest surprise hit of 2017. If you had told me I would want to buy a Mario X Rabbids game a year ago, I would have said that was crazy talk. Definitely not a game for young kids, regardless of visual direction, as one review suggested it was. It would be too challenging for most to complete the full game. Difficulty in later levels is more aimed at teens and adults. DLC is even harder. May be fine for really experienced younger gamers who enjoy strategy games.

I cannot believe there are full grown adults on here complaining that a kids game isn't good for adults. Sad. Anyway, this is an excellent game. There are four beautifully designed worlds filled with platformer style puzzles which are reminiscent of Super Mario 3D world. Interspersed throughout each world are the turn based strategy encounters (think xcom). The battles are strategically challenging, but there is an easy mode which can be toggled for individual battles if you are more interested in the story. The writing is filled with Paper Mario style humor. The music is energetic and engaging. The story is simplistic and is more rabbids focused although Mario is the main character and rabbids make up the majority of the enemies. Overall the game is filled with hours of delightful gameplay and perhaps a fair bit of replay-ability. I picked up the splatoon 2 switch bundle along with this game and we haven't even played splatoon yet since we're having so much fun with Mario and his zany rabbid friends.

Seriously, ignore the other people trashing this game. I got this game with my Switch and immediately got sucked into it. The gameplay is turn-based, but still engaging with how the characters interact with each other. If you're a fan of xcom or the fire emblem series, this is a fun game to pick up. The story is also pretty straightforward with the rabbids being the main focus, though there are still a lot of mario elements to it. I just unlocked the multiplayer but I hear that's also fun so i cant wait to try that. Overall, if you're a fan of Mario and want to try out something new you should definitely pick this game up at some point. Hands down one of the best games available for the Switch at the moment!

don't be fooled. It's an add-on to another game

We bought the digital game, put the code in on eshop and the game is still not accessible unless we spend an additional $40 for the game software. Walmart scammed us with this purchase.

They don't tell you that your not buying the game and then you can't get your money back

Does not work on Nintendo switch.

Did not like the game - I actually bought 3 games and I tried to return them but I only got refunded for 1. I talked to a walmart associate in the store twice and I emailed the seller a few times and also online chatted with a walmart associate who assured me they would refund me my $64. Still no refund. I am out 3 games and $64 - not happy. I will never buy from the marketplace through walmart again unless I know for sure I am not going to return it.

Item arrived fast. But keep in mind this is a third party that your buying from. It's a hassle to return item and get your full reading back.

They sold like first edition and the real version that was send is other. It's not true the description and photo of the game.
