Date Completed: June 6, 2018
Price: $29.99 USD (Best Buy USA)
I bought this game apprehensively after hearing a lot of positive things about it, I knew it was outside my wheelhouse, but being a pretty big fan of Mario games, I thought I'd give it a chance. I'm glad I did. I've never played XCOM and have never considered myself a fan of strategy games, this might change my mind however. I really enjoyed the aesthetic, the bright colorful characters, I think this is the best Mario and co. have ever looked and that's including the recent Super Mario Odyssey. The game play was very satisfying, although I could have done without the puzzles between battles as they seemed like nothing more than a way to stretch out the game. My switch says I put 35 hours in and even though I finished the story, there's still a lot I could do. XCOM is a free game on PlayStation this month, and where I normally would have dismissed it immediately, Mario + Rabbids may have opened up a new genre for me. Recommend.
