Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle is a gorgeous, amusing, and challenging turn-based strategy that's easily the best exclusive on Nintendo Switch so far. I'm just as surprised as you are.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is a must have for Switch-owning fans of turn-based tactical games. More importantly, such is the style and depth on offer that it's also ideal for those that haven't played much of the genre, for whom 'X-COM' sounds like a silly acronym from a war movie.

Firstly, how did the annoying rabbids find their way into a well-thought-of franchise like Mario? Also, who decided that they were going to make a turn-based strategy game involving said characters? Anyhow, this person obviously understood that it would actually work, so well done young sir!

Who knew that Mario and the Rabbids in a strategy RPG with guns would work so well This was a very good game and a pleasant surprise, especially since Ubisoft developed this game!

I'm not sure if I should be writing a review with the amount of time I've put into the game (Not long) but after the 3 hours I've put into it, I can already tell I'm going to enjoy it all the way through. Graphics are fantastic as well.

Okay, so maybe I've been irreparably spoiled by the Disgaea series, but I want the ability to cancel a move action after it's been made. I recognize that certain elements of unit behaviour preclude this possibility.

Visuals are thick with Nintendo Polish; Rabbids are charming as either heroes or villains; Combat system is deep yet accessible

Game too hard or too easy depending on your experience; You can't cancel a move once you've made it; More worlds with fewer chapters; please

This game is fantastic. It's a little different that your usual turn-based strategy. Once you settle into the method it's light and humorous. Lots of little things to keep you searching for more. Love it.

Space Jam. Kingdom Hearts. Mayweather vs. McGregor. Three examples to show how fantastic crossovers can be. And then we have Alien vs. Predator to show us how bad they can get.

Ubisoft have struck gold with Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. What was once something I would have laughed off a year ago has, without a doubt, become one of my favourite games of 2017.

- Excellent Combat - AMAZING music - actually well times and well executed comedy - XCOM but simpler, faster and with more heart
