I'm a little disappointed to be honest, but also I had a lot of fun, so that's why I'm giving it 4 stars.

For a DLC I think you will find a lot of value here. The Splatoon gameplay is already really good, so adding modifiers and variations to it makes a really entertained experience. Every run will play differently from the last one. However I wish there was more variation in bosses, enemies and level designs.

I like to think this was an experiment to see how a roguelike splatoon would play, and it was successful, so I really hope they double down on it and make full game someday.

I also want to mentioned that one of my favorite aspects of Splatoon is the lore and the story, and with how good Octo Expansion was I had really high expectations for this DLC. Sadly this was the weakest part. It feels like they sacrifice a lot of the story to make the roguelike parts works. Maybe it was for the best, but I'm still really sad about it. Oh well, hopefully this is not the end for the Splatoon 3 content.

BTW happy Nintendo Switch anniversary!
