A total surprise for me... I am not a big fan of turned based games, but seeing characters move around to cover and a slightly goofy spin peaked my interest. I gave it a go, and played a few maps. After awhile I was slowly getting hooked in without realising. Then all of a sudden it hits me, "I am dedicating waaaay too much on rabbids". You know why? Because this is a thinking game and it's done well.
Don't let the rabbids discourage you. They are sprinkled in to keep it light hearted not moronic nonsense. It is more like 3/4 Mario for a rough idea.
The music is world class and probably the 3rd best OST I've played on Switch so far.
Difficulty curve is steady and fair. I enjoyed the skill tree and item upgrades to add depth to the gameplay.
Choosing the right characters in later stages is important and gets you really planning your battles, choose wisely. The game is a good length of about 25 hours. Any longer it would of been tedious.
The game was good enough that I rushed to buy the DLC and had a great time with that also, shame you can't choose a team on the DLC. Some issues I had:
- I feel the game is a little buggy at times, especially when on an action shot angle
- The AI seem kinda predicable When backtracking to collect prizes
- The fast travel points did not match the campaign battle arenas and can be disorientating to know where you were at times
