This is not that good of a game but is certainly not the worst. I could sit down and play this with my daughter just to let her have fun playing such a simple game with simple controls and end game. This is not something that I'd say I could come back to and enjoy time after time.

An enjoyable enough party fighter that doesn't quite do enough to stand out.

Brawlout is a pretty fun Smash Bros.-esque fighter that's quite a bit more fast paced.  While the roster selection is small, and the unlockable characters are similar or just alternate versions of the original lineup, the fast-paced action and unique moves for each character make this a pretty fun game to play with friends, either at home or online.

Brawlout is a good brawler action game that is enjoyed both solo and accompanied, although a larger cast of characters and more interactive and dynamic settings would have been excellent for the game.

Brawlout is a simple fighting title that features mechanics clearly inspired by the Super Smash Bros series, with some differences. The cast of characters has no charisma, but the guest characters (Juan, Drifter and Yooka-Laylee) are good additions. The online mode is functional with players in the same region. The biggest problem is the gameplay, which is a bit strange to get used to, especially with the impact of the attacks. If you are looking for a Smash Bros on PlayStation consoles, it is worth checking it out, but have in mind that it is an inferior version of the Nintendo brawler.

Brawlout is a solid brawling title with gorgeous environments, wacky characters and combat that generally feels just alright.

On a surface level Brawlout is a decent Smash Bros. clone. It's colourful and easy to pick up, but the brawling itself lacks impact and edge. If you're looking for a more casual fighting game experience -- something to play with friends, perhaps -- then it's worth a shout, but keep your expectations in check.

A fun game with a wide variety of modes, but with little content.

Although Brawlout's mechanics and gameplay are decent, and great for any party, the lack of modes hampers the game's replayability, making it harder to recommend.

If you don't mind doing extensive web research in order to understand the ins and outs of Graveyard Keeper's gameplay progression, you'll be able to enjoy the best of what the game has to offer.

A tournament level fighter strictly focused on being that and nothing more. Though the rest of the game suffers, with multiple modes to fight in, including online and couch co-op and tournaments abound, this is a good fighter to pick up if you're looking for that specifically, or just want a decent Smash Bros. clone for your kids.

Angry Mob Games' Brawlout wants to be the next Super Smash Bros. but it comes up very short

Brawlout rocks up to consoles looking like it's gone a couple of rounds with Floyd Mayweather. Whereas the characters, gameplay, and stages pack a fair punch, overall it suffers due to dire loading times and a stale state of a single-player experience. Even with the framework for one of the best fighting games in our time, the adaption has not been successful, and therefore Brawlout arrives with enough bugs to keep Paco well fed for days. Couch Play delivers rousing competition and progression incentives are a nice touch, yet with the issues present, there's little keeping players tempted for that “one more game.”

Brawlout is affordable, has a great weight and feel to its gameplay and is fun to get a group of friends together to play.

There is definitely a giant sized hole on the Nintendo Switch where a new Super Smash Bros. game should be right now, leaving fans to look for an alternate. Brawlout definitely fits that bill as a potential fill-in for the time being, but you’re going to have to overlook a number of flaws to get a lot of enjoyment out of it.

Brawlout is a fine smashlike for Nintendo Switch, though has got some pretty evident flaws.

Brawlout lacks gameplay variety and standout characters. It may be good enough for Smash Bros. fans supremely desperate for a Switch release, but everyone else can safely sit this one out
