The game we are talking about today is Super Smash Bros Ultimate. So first, let’s talk about the Smash Mode in it which is where everyone who first gets the game goes. It is very fun to play it with friends because playing with a CPU gets boring fast, when I got the game and played against a CPU it was easy and was quick to beat. If you really want a challenge against a CPU set it to level nine and take away all items. Playing with friends is much harder because they put up a fight. If you and your friends or family don’t like playing against each other put them all together on a team to have a fun experience.

When it comes to viewing, if it is just two players then you can easily tell who’s who and where they are, but if there are more than two players, let’s say eight, that makes it hard and may confuse everyone where they are. If you put it in multiplayer teams you could end up fighting someone on your own team. This is one of the major flaws in the game and will make all players unhappy with each other -- trust me I see it a lot.

If you want a challenge that is really fun, go to the classic mode where you can fight a series of CPUs that are not for noobs and will make it harder as you go. As you battle you may see fighters that were from that character area or characters they are compared to. In the end, you will either see the master hand on another character from the character’s series in a mega/Giga form. Before you beat the boss you will face a mini-game of collecting coins, unlike the battles after you die you can’t pay coins or tickets to try again. After you complete all of this you go into credits which is also a mini-game where you shoot the titles and shapes which give you points that will give you higher rewards.

The adventure mode is like every other part of the game: you have to smash. But this is different, you have conditions and the enemies get harder. The main goal of adventure mode is to collect as many spirits as you can while getting to the end boss(es). There will be dungeons that you will go into to collect mega and Giga forms of the many characters. After you defeat the first main boss there will be more levels and bosses in this huge level called “the dark world”.

My final rating: 5.5/10
