May 12, 2017

Additionally, the game lacks innovation and feels pretty much the same as any other Bomberman you may have previously played.

Mar 9, 2017

Snipperclips is a fun, charming title that players will enjoy, and is a great start to the "Nindie" movement that Nintendo is embracing for the Switch.

Nov 11, 2016

Although the missions are repetitive, the gameplay itself is amazingly fun.
