Ni se nota que fue desarrollado por una compañia externa a Nintendo; demuestra que fue desarrollado con cariño y mimo a la franquicia de Mario. A nivel jugable es una delicia, siento que los elementos "multijugador" se podrían haber explotado aún más, y se podría haber incorporado un multijugador local para el modo historia, pero pese a aquello, el juego es redondo: tiene un excelente historia, excelente apartado gráfico y artístico, una banda sonora exquisita, y una jugabilidad adictiva. Nunca pensé que podría salir algo tan destacable de la unión de Mario con los Rabbids; espero con ansias una secuela de este gran título.… Expand

    It's a good game with XCOM and Mario elements. If you're into strategic games this is for you.

    Sin tener mucha esperanza en Ubisoft, debo reconocer que me parece un de los mejores juegos que hay en Nintendo Switch.

Sus mecánicas de avanzar por un escenario a base de movimientos limitados para derrotar a los enemigos me parece muy divertida y te engancha. Conforme vas superando niveles, subes de nivel y vas consiguiendo habilidades y nuevas armas para derrotar a los enemigos. Los escenarios cada vez se vuelven más complicados y tienes que plantear bien la estrategia. Hay que utilizar bien las coberturas para que los enemigos no te alcancen o, si te alcanzan, recibir el menor daño posible. La historia es sencilla, pero en este tipo de juegos no buscar eso, por lo que lo recomiendo mucho para pasar un buen rato. En los niveles más avanzados el juego aprieta, sobre todo, en el jefe final.… Expand

    One of the few games I have played on Switch. Fun, for sure. I am a big XCom fan and it definitely hit that vibe but the setting and characters are not ones I particularly relish.

    It's repetitive and boring, the controls are **** the mechanics are always the same, the original serie of rabbits was funny but the game with mario is the worst **** i played on switch

    Un juego sorprendentemente muy muy buen juego. Historia desenfada que combina extrañamente bien los rabbits y el universo Mario. Un sistema de mejora entretenido, suficientes personajes y equipo para elegir múltiples estrategias al gusto de cada uno, y un sistema de combate excesivamente divertido.
    La única pega del juego es que se queda corto, y que el modo multijugador podría ser mejor.

    Gets old VERY VERY fast, unbelievably aggravating at some points and the rewards aren't very "rewarding" whatsoever. By halfway through I was just done with this crap. Oh yes, also it crashed several times for me, not sure if others have had this problem but some battles can be 20+ minutes long and very difficult and for it to crash halfway through is unbelievably frustrating.

It's easy to learn, but it gets surprisingly deep as the game progresses. The gameplay is something like Xcom. Every level is a gridded plane. You move your characters somewhere safe to fire your gun. In this game, there is cover. Large blocks completely protect your character from enemy fire. Half blocks have a fifty percent chance of protecting you from enemy fire. There is a shop in this game, where you can get new weapons and abilities. Abilities can be upgraded with power orbs, which'll make your character more elastic or make them more powerful. There are 8 characters in the game, all with different specialties. Pick wisely and you'll get through the game more easily. This game has a decently meaty main campaign, but there's a heck ton of replayability and post-game content that it completely justifies the pricing point. The music and writing in this game are both stellar. The humorous dialogue and clever gags really made me laugh out loud a lot of times. The music in this game is very catchy. You can clearly tell that there were loads of great composers in the making of the game. Graphically, this game looks awesome. Everything is decked out with details. Just taking a walk around the map brings some amazing vibes. If this game has one problem, it's that the game is a bit laggy at times. Plus, there should be some difficulty options in the main campaign. I'd love to replay the game once again with a bit more spice. Overall, this game is amazing and certainly a must-buy if you're a fan of turned-based combat. Have a lovely day/night, folks!… Expand

The only other gripe I would have with it is that the collectibles aren't too rewarding, Concept art and models for me were a waste of time, Collecting music tracks too. I never felt too excited when opening a chest but thats a small gripe as the game is still loads of fun. Would love to see a sequel to this in the future… Expand

    It’s important to note that this is a strategy game it is not the usual Mario game. It was completely not what I was expecting, but it is a very good game. Once I readjusted my expectations, I thoroughly enjoyed this game.

    This game could have been so terrible but they pretty much nailed everything.
    Combat feels great, character and world design is phenomenal, difficulty is fair and there's a **** ton too do.
    I would recommend picking this up for Switch, just because of its current low price.

    A maior supresa do Switch logo no seu primeiro ano, um jogo com belos gráficos, um modo de batalha viciante e que requer boas estratégias, uma trilha sonora que se encaixa perfeitamente no universo do game sem desvincular se da essência da série Mario. Não ganha um 10 pelo simples motivo de ser um pouco linear demais, apesar de ter uns caminhos alternativos mas óbvios demais.

    Overall, Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle brings a welcome shot of vitality to the turn-based strategy genre thanks to interesting team mechanics and a colorful Nintendo theme that sets it apart from its contemporaries. Taking one of the biggest IPs in the world and marrying it to an all new type of gameplay was a huge risk that paid off wonderfully, and I’m glad that it finally found its way to my Switch. Now, bring me a sequel with a couple of needed improvements and 100% fewer rabbids, and we’re in business…

    Mario + Rabbids is an incredibly welcome surprise. I assumed that a game starring Rabbids would become grating long before completion, but my fears turned out to be unsubstantiated. Beep-0 is a great lead character, and the Rabbids' hijinks are dialed back to a level that works. This is a fun take on a tactical RPG; the simplification of hit percentages worked especially well. The game isn't without fault — greater variety in characters and levels along with more meaningful customization would be welcome — but most of the issues are minor in comparison to how much fun the game is to play. Hopefully Mario + Rabbids marks the beginning of a new series and a sequel will take these ideas further.

    Ubisoft acquired Nintendo’s license, added some Rabbids in the mix and entrusted the game to its Italian studio that never developed any large game on its own. What’s more, neither the studio nor both IPs had anything to do with tactical games. I still don’t understand how Kingdom Battle turned out so good. [11/2017, p.46]
