    The main reason why this game is getting review bombed is simple. It's because Pokemon Sword and Shield fans mad at the fact that this game is getting loved, despite the fact that it doesn't have every Pokemon, despite the fact that this is a spinoff. It shouldn't really have every Pokemon. Meanwhile, Sword and Shield are mainline games. Not having every Pokemon is inexcusable.

This game is primarily an upgrade to the original N64 game in a variety of ways. Sure, no mid stage evolutions is a huge loss, but in return, you have a variety of Pokemon from every generation, well animated and everything. And for those of you complaining about the game's length, the original N64 game was short as well. Is it worth 60 dollars? No. But I'd still get it anyway, because Nintendo and Pokemon games don't tend to go on sale.… Expand

There are tons of secrets and events you can trigger much like the original game, only there are significantly more. The levels are all packed full of action, all of which have three variations based on rank and a Day and Night mode. The On-Rails gameplay is essential to make this game a fun challenge. If you could just move freely, there would be no challenge in getting good pictures or triggering events, the game would just be boring and hardly even a game.… Expand

    About me: I played the original on N64 & im a big Pokemon fan and played all main line games & most spin offs.
    Pokemon Sw/Sh disappointed me a lot, it felt lacking and rushed. new Pokemon snap for me tho, is a game that makes me feel like im a child again, exploring the routes, discovering secrets, watching the pokemon in aw. This sequel is all I've ever wanted from it: it's charming, cute und strangely addictive.
    It has a great replay value because for each location there are research levels (1-4) On each level theres new things happening, for example new interactions or even new Pokemon. The Pokemon get more comfortable to you and i can't help but care for all of them (new snap made me love Pokemon i didnt care about before like Bidoof lol). You also discover secret branches in each areas that lead you to discover entirely new things! There's tons of hidden stuff and secrets.
    I particularly love that most courses have a night version too! My god, going through the jungle at night, watching all the glowing plants and lights is gorgeous!! I replayed the jungle probably 30 times and i still didn't explore everything. Each Pokemon has 4 different poses worth of stars too, so like bidoof for example, when he's just chilling its 1 star, when he's eating an apple it's 2 stars, when he's building his dam it's 3 stars and 4 stars you get when you snap him swimming happily. For me it's a ton of fun trying to get all 4 stars for every Pokemon.
    Yes, it's true, not all Pokemon are included in this game. My favorite Pokemon for example isn't included and you know what? That's absolutely fine! Imagine 700+ Pokemon in 4 different stars, i'd get so tired. I'd rather have less Pokemon but those added being charming and cute.

    The only thing I'd maybe criticize would be that Pokemon evolving is mising in the game & maybe the music. The courses are without music but then again, you hear the environment, the cries of the Pokemon and more, which makes it feel more realistic.

    To everyone who loved the original: pick this game up, I promise you'll love it.
    If you're new to the series: if you don't mind that there's no fighting and rather you'd like to observe and explore, give this game a go. I tend do be very critical with games, but this one I absolutely love!

    Conclusion:

    + gorgeous environments
    + adorbale Pokemon that feel alive and real
    + tons of stuff to explore, like secret branches in areas
    + night time of the courses is BEAUTIFUL & there's different pokemon!
    + research levels & 4 star point systems give replay value for each course
    + diverse courses: jungle, park, desert, deep sea flooring, beach, forest & more
    + sharing pictures with friends online, you can see their snaps
    + requests give extra challenge, like snapping a Pokemon in a rare pose etc.
    + noises in each area are amazing

    - music could be better
    - I miss seeing Pokemon evolve    … Expand

    I love the variety of interactions in this game. I have more than 5 hours of playthrough and I just kept exploring the same first areas just because I enjoyed it so much.
    It definitely has room for updates for online feature (like following someone to know everytime they have a new photo uploaded) and DLC, but the game has already delivered everything it has promised.

    Fun blast from the past experience! At it's core the game is a graphical upgrade to the origional.

That too played thru quickly though so I am holding out hope there is another expansion on the way. Regardless, the game is not deep and lacks more than one way to play.… Expand

You're left with a few courses where you can see spanning emptiness outside the map and it feels more like a simulation that an environment. Outside of that this game is everything it promised to be. It can often be immersive, especially with the inclusion of online features allowing players to show their individual experiences. After release there was a content update that added two more environments and some extensions and updates to already existing ones. It would be nice to see more content updates in the future and see the game getting supported more, especially with the competitive point system gaining quick popularity. For an immersive step into the Pokémon world, this is about as close as you'll get for now.… Expand

    Here you selectyour charcter, youre given a camera to go research pokemon for professor mirror… and the progression is the same as last time, you take as many picture as you can, the best you can, get graded on the pictures.. and once you’ve earned enough experience in an area youll go back to the lab, be given new info to drive the story along and youre back at it.. however this time around areas level up, each time you level up there will be new pokemon for you to find and interact with… as as you progress the story youll be given new items, like these balls to make pokemon and plants glow… andthis ime around, this on rails shooter feels more like going through aworld that’s lived in rathr han a world a bunch of pokemon are just running around in. there are veen day and nights versions of most levels, and even these illumine spots where you take pictures of legendary glowing pokemon… unfortunately though, new pokemon snap, while it is a heaftier and more substantial game, taking me about 10 hours to complete.. it isn’t as magical as the original. Simply because new pokemon snap is just overly complicated… what I loved about the original pokemon snap is its feeling of discovery… you got pictures and found pokemon simply by organically interacting with the world, throwing fruit, playing your flute, something ctaching your eye. Making a voltorb explode to unlock a new area… it felt like pure magic discovering something new.. here in new pokemon snap, everything is overly complicated and too high-tech… its constat axiety of waiting for the scan bubble to pup up, pressing the scan button, scanning whatever object the game wants you to check out, try to quickly read the text and do what you think the ame wants you to do in that moment… even taking new paths requires a scan, rather than again, making a voltorb explode, or make a pokemon explode a rock.. it has its moments of this, but not nearly enough.. which brings me to the pokemon.. im a litte confused on how leveling up areas work, as you only get credit on new pictures that score better than the last picture… so if I get a really good picture of picachu on this level, pickachu doesn’t count towards my score for this new level? So I just ignore older pokemon? To be fair there is a star system here to help combat this as you can get a 1-4 star picture, but that star system disrespect your time as a player.. you could get 3 different star level photos of the same pokemon, but youre only allowed submitting one picture for each pokemon you take a picture of.. even though you have a free space for that star level in your album… its annoying and forces grind a handful of times during the campaign, when youre just trying to unlock the next section… let me go back and get a different star picture of the same pokemon so I can move on… which brings me to the illumina spots.. these are just lame.. 2 out of the 5 are cool. But for the most part its just a stretched out boring slog of trying to hit these giant pokemon with an apple and a glowing ball for 5 minutes, and getting a picture of them glowing, while nothing cool happens around.. easily the weakest aspect of pokemon snap.. but I do like the idea and concept.. we just need a little more heart racing action…
    Overall through /I love bew pokemon snp, despite its world feeling not so magical.. id love a follow up down the line that impliments more organic discovery, and less scan all of these items…

    - Amazing graphics - Fitting and beautiful music - Perfect amount of Pokemon - Interesting Maps with fitting Pokemon - Good and fitting story (in my opinion the best what you could do in a rail photo shoter game) - Interesting Pokemon interactions and animations - Some really hard puzzles to get rare pokemon /    Very good game but there are still things that could be better.

    - Interesting Pokemon interactions and animations
    - Some really hard puzzles to get rare pokemon / pokemon animations for special photos

    Neutral:
    - The different ways you can find in the map were good but could have been better, sometimes they were to short or not that special
    - The characters were fitting but could have been brought more into the game (especially the kids)
    - Can get boring if you dont like this typ of game and dont find the pokemon/secret youre looking for

    Cons:
    - Price is a little bit too much, 40-50€ would have been more fitting, for people who love this game and want to discover everything the 60€ feel okay, but fore the standard player who just finishes the story and only plays the post game a little bit its too much
    - No Evolutions, correct me if im wrong but I think there are no evolutions in this game which I find kinda sad because they played a big part in the original game and scenes like where you feed a magikarp and it evolves into gyarados would have been amazing
    - The rating/star system is fine, but the stars could have been made better like being able to pick multiple pictures of the same pokemon with different stars ( for each star picture you can choose one) or something in that direction

    Overall its a good game but not perfect. A lot of the hate I see here is undeserved, theres either people who knew that this game was a rail photo shoter game, yet still bought it and then cry that you cant move freely or people who just rush it and then say that its too short.    … Expand

    To be honest I bought this game because I wanted to support pokemon spin-offs that weren't mobile games... And I was still unsure whether or not i would immediately regret it.

And I was still unsure whether or not i would immediately regret it. "A sefari simulator? I suppose it could be kindafun... But $60??" I never played the OG pokemon snap, I wanted to as a kid but as a responsible adult who has to consider finances and better understands their personal taste... What's the appeal of a few short cinematics?

    Let me tell you, I regret nothing. Pokemon snap's appeal is difficult to understand unless you've experienced it. It's more than just wholsome-but-scripted encountets and photography; but it's hard to put to words what's "more" about it. Maybe it scratcges an itch I didnt know I had for a pokemon world that feels alive.

    One thing I do know, the game plays like a seies of interactive short-films that evolve the more you watch them. And for some reason that's immensely satisfying

    What's more, do not underestimate the empowrering feeling that comes from the "re-snap" feature. Seperate from the photo-editing, this mechanic can take even your most botched photos and give you the tools you need to turn it into something that resembles the work of a professional nature photographer. The renap is very intuitive and allows you to manually perform "touch ups" after the photos are evaluated, but it goes beyond the kind of digital remaster you coukd get IRL, the feature actually lets you revisit the moment the picture was taken and snap a new photo entirely, with much more precision than you got in your first go through. Resnsp can salvage virtuslly any imsge, as long as there was a visible subject within 30 feet of the frame. but why wouldnt there be? there's almost always something going on (whether it be cute strange or outright agressive) no matrter where the camera is pointed. I have spent more time fidling with re-snap than the rest of the game combined. Sure this game is somewhat "niche" and has some limitations, but overall I strongly recomend giving it a try, if you still arent sureif you think it's worth buying, I would suggest you test it out with a borrowed copy, if you can because a milion trailors and reviews could never do this game justice.    … Expand

    One of the most relaxed pokemon games, my favorite part about this game is the interactions you have with the pokemon. For Example: Throwing an apple at a pokemon making it wake up (and sometimes make them angry). Overall 9/10, but I am going to give it a 10/10 to balance out the bots.

    In a nutshell: as a researcher, you travel to various places, interact with wild Pokémon and take photos to document their behavior.

    New Pokémon Snap isn't totally perfect, but it is a lovingly, intelligently updated take on a now 22-year-old original that only came to life because it was imbued with Mr. Iwata's magic. I know seeing this sequel would have made him smile. [Issue #53 – July/August 2021, p. 69]
