    I just played two hours of this game with two friends and we had a total blast! This game is at the same time cute, funny and quite intense! It's very gratifying when you solve a puzzle! Also there is no hand holding to point out the solution which is great!

    One of the most creative and fun games I've ever played. Perfect to play with your significant other...super fun teamwork game!! I think for the $20 you spend getting this game, it's very very well worth the investment.

    Este tesoro escondido en la Eshop es una verdadera joya de Nintendo, "Snipperclips" es un juego cooperativo de ingenio, ideal para conocer los Joy Con.
    Se disfruta mayormente de a dos, pero puede jugarse en forma individual. Las mecánicas son simples pero los puzzles van de fáciles a difíciles.
    "Snipperclips" es ideal para compartir con amigos, es divertido y desafiante.

    Divertidisimo y simpatiquisimo. Muy bien diseñado, hay varias maneras de resorver los puzles y a veces ayuda mucho la suerte :) Me ha encantado, hacia tiempo que no me reia tanto.

    Other than Mario Kart, this is the only game my non-gamer wife will play with me. We've had a blast. Very original and creative puzzles. It eases you in nicely, difficulty-wise.

    Snipperclips does an amazing job to show off what is unique and exciting about the Nintendo Switch. The co-op mode is a lot of fun, and this game has a totally unique idea for the puzzle genre that I am a big fan of. I will say that if you want to play this single-player, it really hinders the fun the game brings.

I will say that if you want to play this single-player, it really hinders the fun the game brings. This game really should only be played if you plan on playing with a friend or family member. Although the single-player is fun and challenging, it is just very wonky switching back and forth between the characters, and the fact you are still forced to use a single Joy-Con rather than a Pro Controller or alternative really hurts this game's single-player play-through. I would totally recommend this game for anyone who wants to see what you're Switch can do, has the extra funds, and plans to play this couch co-op style. Otherwise I would say only major puzzle game fans should give this a whirl.… Expand

    Fun game, fun puzzles. For the price it's a great multiplayer experience. Definitely a game to play with friends and family. Haven't finished it yet but I could see replay value with different ways to approach many of the puzzles

    7.8/10 too much clips

    Actually though, it's an adorable little game that's a blast to play with friends. The puzzles are creative, and it also has a blitz mode that's a bit of fun to play. I'll be bringing this game to my friend's place every time I go.

    My fiancé and I enjoyed playing through this, but it was all over far too quickly. Probably worth picking up in a sale, but close to 20 quid for about an hour to an hour and a halfs worth of entertainment isn't good value. Especially when it's pretty much got zero replayability.

    Needs at least another "world" or 2.

    This is an ok game for the switch. It will give you a good few hours of fun in multi-player mode. The puzzles are interesting. Don't buy this game for one player action. It is the kind of game I'll keep on my switch until better games arrive then I will delete it.

    An absolute must if you own a Switch! It's an adorable game with some of the best puzzles out there! Highly recommend this game and it's very cheap price too!

    Great little multi-player game. My only complaint is the somewhat uneven difficulty - my 7-year-old and I would trounce a number of levels and then spend 15 minutes on one. Other than that, it's a solid digital-only game.

    I play this hidden gem with my GF and we are having a total blast. It's the perfect format to introduce both the Switch and gaming in general to no gamer people. Just so much fun to solve these creative puzzles together. Love it! There is a free demo with 4 levels or so on the eshop btw.

    Why doesnt the admin monitor the user scores because its clear people are down scoring because of some childish hate towards a product.
    This renders the user scores meaningless.
    This game is about an 8 out if ten but i feel i have to score it up because of the children on here.
    The game is a very good co op experience full of giggles so me and my wife had a great time with it.

    Adorable and clever puzzle game. Great fun and value for the asking price.
    The unexpected highlight of the Switch launch period next to the expectedly brilliant Breath of the Wild!

    I love this game, my wife loves this game and all 3 of my kids love this game.
    It's different from anything else we've played and the freedom to solve the puzzle anyway you want is awesome! It's fun watching my kids solve puzzles completely different from what my wife and I did.

    Very cute and fun game that has some great puzzlers. Perfect to play with a friend and beat all of the levels. Just the right amount of difficulty to not be frustrating.

    I mainly purchased Snipperclips well over a year ago as a little diversion for me and my wife to have a bit of fun with while we were still waiting for the Switch library to fill out (this was back in the beginning, when the Switch was still a Zelda machine), and it was exactly that, a nice little diversion, though a number of much better puzzlers have made their way to the Switch sinceI mainly purchased Snipperclips well over a year ago as a little diversion for me and my wife to have a bit of fun with while we were still waiting for the Switch library to fill out (this was back in the beginning, when the Switch was still a Zelda machine), and it was exactly that, a nice little diversion, though a number of much better puzzlers have made their way to the Switch since then.. I enjoyed the expressiveness of the cute little paper characters, their giggles and blushes whenever you'd snip out little pieces of them, and some of the puzzles are fairly clever.

    It's worth it if you know for sure you'll have at least one other person to solve all the puzzles with, but controlling with only one person is incredibly tedious. It's also a shame the controls are so finicky, since only around 30% of the time you'll spend playing this game will be actual puzzle solving, whereas the other 70% is executing after you already know how to solve it.

    Still, I very much enjoyed Snipperclips, and I would check out an improved sequel should there ever be one.    … Expand

    Adorable game for people of all ages and ideal for friends and family. Extremely well finished game that you get a real sense of accomplishment when you complete a level - regardless of how you did it. Snipping your buddy into a cog would be the highlight of my gaming with my 10 year old over the weekend. Great fun. Only thing I feel its missing but this is missing on Nintendo as a whole -Adorable game for people of all ages and ideal for friends and family.

    Schönes Spiel, mit vielen tollen Ideen. Alleine nicht ganz so lustig, wie zu zweit. Für mich neben Shovel Knight und Fast RMX eines der Top Indiespiele für die Switch. Absolut empfehlenswert.

    Awesome party game. Its a shame that it gets a bit difficult quite early on because less experienced players dont want to play then but hell it would be boring if it werent challenging. I love the idea behind this one, highly recommend for everybody to check this one out.

    Publishing a 'Nindie' itself on the eShop, this stacks up well and achieves its goals - for those looking to share Switch with friends and family members of all gaming stripes, Snipperclips is an excellent option. Mode solo, it does work and is an entirely different process. You can swap between the two characters easily and the one you drop, importantly, holds their position. Buy it!

    This is the premiere party game for the Switch for sure. At only 20 dollars the game is all the way worth it. The best mode is for sure playing with just 2 players but the modes that require 3-4 players are also pretty fun. Overall Snipperclips is fun and a good challenge.

    Schönes Spiel, das auch wunderbar die Vorteile der Switch zeigt. Es hat nur zwei Probleme: Zum einen ist es zu kurz, zum anderen zu leicht. Aber das lässt sich bei einem Nachfolger beheben.

    It might favor quality over quantity, but this is a perfect introduction to couch co-op on Switch. [May 2017, p.68]

    It will not stop the global warming, it doesn’t cure cancer or even introduce any new trends in game design, but in almost every level it proves that Zelda is not the only must-have title on Switch. It matches the platform’s nature perfectly. [05/2017, p.70]
