Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido Reviews
Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido is a brilliantly bizarre, fast-paced action/puzzler. The battle mechanics are simple to grasp, but have enough depth to make it a challenge to master. The game is also accompanied by a range of quirky characters and an over the top plot… but it also strangely fits into place. Though the gameplay is sometimes repetitive, there is still a sushi boat load of fun to be had over the 150 or so battles.
Sushi Striker wears its 3DS roots on its sleeve, but the core gameplay is addicting and the production values (minus the overworld) are top notch. Though it might appear like a high-end mobile game, this is the full-fledged real deal. If you don't mind dealing with a few pacing issues, this is easy to recommend to anyone who enjoys deep puzzle games.
Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido takes a competent puzzle game and adds an interesting enough RPG element to add variety. The Story mode does linger for a little longer in the mouth than you would like, but online play and local multiplayer mean this may be just the game you need to fill 'that' spot in your library.
Sushi Striker is a decent puzzle game with an odd and somewhat charming theme. It’s not for everyone, but if you’re looking for something quick and easy to play on the move, this will definitely fit the bill.
Puzzle games might not exactly be in short supply on the Nintendo Switch at the moment but Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido is an easy recommendation thanks to its fun and unique premise and quirky, polished presentation.
If you're looking for a wacky and colourful competitive puzzler that can be enjoyed by casual and hardcore gamers alike then Sushi Striker is a solid experience.
This offbeat and peculiar puzzle game takes a ridiculous concept and manages to shape it into a shockingly deep, balanced, and varied low-key masterpiece. I was looking forward to checking this game out since it was shown off, but I never expected it to be this good. Don't sleep on Sushi Striker, but be mindful that you'll probably really want to eat sushi after playing it for a while.
SCORE 8Its premise may border on ridiculous, but behind its wacky veneer, Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido hides an expansive package. Despite its short runtime, there's a lot of charm packed into its campaign, and plenty to do once the credits have rolled. The easy-to-learn, hard-to-master control scheme ensures it's accessible to everyone, whilst the replayability and multiplayer (including a function that allows two players to use the same console in tabletop mode) solidify its place as a consistent pick-up-and-play staple for the Nintendo Switch library.
The fast pace of the puzzle based combat and the fun progression system makes Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido a guilty pleasure for the Nintendo Switch. Don’t sleep on this gem even if you hate puzzle games.
Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido hasn't released to amazing sales in Japan and it's a shame because it's such an entertaining game. It might seem like a hard swallow at full price and at first glance, but there's an incredible amount of depth and content that you won't regret the buy. I'll be returning to Sushi Striker again because I love its creative wonder, and I think you will too. Try the demo out, at the very least.
As far as pure entertainment goes, it's hard to look past Sushi Striker.
Sushi Striker overall is solidly made and had me addicted to its simple yet challenging battles. It's a game that allows anyone to play in whatever manner they choose. This is definitely one game that I would recommend to anyone looking for a fun and fresh adventure… just try not to play on an empty stomach.
Funny game adequate for handhelds in which you can spend a lot of time to become sushi master.

Aside from its minor control issues, Sushi Striker is a welcome addition to my growing Nintendo Switch collection and I'm sure it will be for many others. I can't wait to get back to it, but first I'm going to go pick up that sushi I ordered.
Despite its engaging story and charming characters, Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido undergoes a significant setback when you take its gameplay and controls into consideration. It has a good amount of flair to appeal to different kinds of players, especially those who are also anime fans. But in the end, it comes down to being just another matching puzzle game with tiresome controls at its core. As a side note, one major impression that could be taken from the game is how delicious sushi can be. Therefore, like Musashi, I am also thinking about trying sushi for the first time.
Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido is an unexpected beauty held back by preconceptions and what is easy to consider an unreasonable price tag. The variety of difficulty paired with a well-polished gameplay experience goes a long way in putting forward something worthwhile and memorable. Add to this a simplicity and recognisable core as well as an inviting design, and you have something to be enjoyed by anybody fortunate enough to pick it up.
Sushi Striker The Way of Sushido is a frantic and fun action puzzle game that catches up with Puyo Puyo Tetris and Battle Chef Brigade in the circle of the best puzzle games available for Nintendo Switch. It's expecially good in portable mode and in short bursts.

Sushi Striker is a new type of puzzle title that is fast-paced and requires a great deal of accuracy along with many different strategies.
While the price may be a bit steep for some right now, Sushi Striker is one of the best Nintendo Switch games out there right now simply thanks to the fact it fires on all cylinders and lands every shot. As someone who doesn't have much love for sushi in real life, Sushi Striker is a really special game that should be rewarded for its original and high-quality presentation, a unique world filled with depth and brilliant and fast gameplay that meshes instinct with strategy and puzzle solving. Nintendo has delivered yet another incredible experience that only the Nintendo Switch can offer.
As wacky and zany of a concept that Sushi Striker is at first glance, it's surprisingly addictive puzzle mechanics and pick-up-and-play nature make for a well-made gem of a title that one shouldn't ignore.
