Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl, beyond name recognition, is a lackluster and same-y feeling game. 90% of the cast has the same basic up-down Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl, beyond name recognition, is a lackluster and same-y feeling game. 90% of the cast has the same basic up-down combo tree, and hitboxes are often confusingly large or feel inconsistent to the average player. The «rollback netcode» is much worse than in other plat fighters and other fighting games in particular, even Brawlhalla, a free game. Fighting anyone with a moderately bad connection becomes a battle of «Animations are starting and stopping with absolutely no warning» and even starts stuttering at a ping range of 40-80. If you have a ping above 30, or mildly inconsistent, this game starts suffering really bad in the online department. Apart from the online department, the game also suffers, as it offers no single-player content outside of a classic mode and a training mode, in which the Brawlhalla training mode has it beat. Hitboxes are janky and quite large, e.g. Catdog’s neutral heavy attack, which hits behind, above, and in front. Normals aren’t varied enough to really make a huge difference in combo games, as with the exception of maybe 2 characters they all have the same juggling combos. Getting stuck in a combo is literally an un-skippable cutscene. Hitstun is long and the tumbling mechanics feel extremely random whether or not they go off. On top of that, move priorities are strange and feel like the devs rolled a dice and decided which one had a higher priority. I hate comparing random platform fighters to each other, but the priorities in Brawlhalla actually make sense and clashes don’t feel nearly as random. Balance was not even considered once in the making of this game. Characters seem to have the same «character design» of «throw **** at the wall and see what sticks.» Characters will have strangely fast moves. While I appreciate a more aggressive game, this game just feels genuinely awful in some regards. Funny how people criticize Brawlhalla for being a monotonous, same-y game, and then turn around and praise the game where every character has the exact same combo tree (which is worse than having characters have the same weapons, as sig kits shake up how you use the attacks.) The only meaningful changes that anyone have are in their specials, in which the only difference is how god-awful their projectile is (save Zim and Patrick.) The character designs are lazy, with reused animations all over the place. Aang, who should be one of the most unique characters, feels like a generic fast kung fu kid with a bo staff. Characters where they try to shake up the game end up looking like they forgot some key thing to make them fun to fight against, like Toph’s infinite platforms at the top of the screen, which, coupled with the lack of a magnifier bubble, and her obnoxious rocks from above, make for a infuriatingly overlooked strategy.
TL;DR I did not enjoy this game much. It felt rushed in all senses of the word, including the lack of good music and voice acting. A lot of this game feels bog-standard and lazy. Something that could have changed up the platform fighter scene, in my opinion, has completely fallen on its face due to a turbulent release. … Full Review »
Nickelodeon All Star Brawl this game was totally rushed out the door it lacks major polish in every way possible, the roster itself is fine Nickelodeon All Star Brawl this game was totally rushed out the door it lacks major polish in every way possible, the roster itself is fine but the dialogue in the game which is done via text box at the start of fights is generic as hell, the battles themselves are quiet apart from the announcer who will chime in every so often with «OOH WHAT A HIT!» I seriously don’t recommend this to anyone and I had a feeling it would be bad when I saw the Pre-Order on the Switch was 20% off. You don’t put Toph Beifong in a game and not have her make any sassy snarky comments!
That said here are the pros and cons of this game
Pros:
-Easy controls
-Game looks nice
Cons:
-No Dialogue at all apart from Generic sentences in a text box
-Roster choices were confusing they put April O’Neal, Mikey and Leonardo in the game but left out —Raphael and Donatello which I found odd not to mention Helga from Hey Arnold was there but not Arnold himself
-Battles are way too quiet I expected some trash talk from the characters (Especially Toph who lives to taunt her opponents)
all in all I give this a 1 out of 10 like I said above I knew this game was gonna suck when they put it 20% off and the game wasn’t even out yet … Full Review »

First of all, out of the gate I have to throw this out there. The game is highly over-rated and without the Nickelodeon License no one First of all, out of the gate I have to throw this out there. The game is highly over-rated and without the Nickelodeon License no one would’ve ever willfully bought it, and that’s how I review it based on what the core game and the presentation gives you.
I appreciate how the devs tried to show their enthusiasm of brawl games and they tried to make a compelling combat system, but it’s not very great, almost mashy and wacky. there is almost no whiff recovery on many moves and you can just freely jump around and land while throwing stuff out.
Most animation are good but that’s it, no any unique throws and it lacks characters actually showcasing their special powers, instead they resort to simple melee combat like punching and kicking.
The best thing about the game is rollback Netcode and for that I give the game more than I wanted.
Now for the things that make this game super forgettable and undeserving of the score it currently has.
Sound — No voice acting, awful soundtrack, generic hit sounds. meaning that overall the game got nothing to deliver when it comes to sound.
Presentation — cheap looking menus, characters look ok but there is no any alternate costumes or unlockables. The stages are also super underwhelming.
Game modes and tweaks — here you pretty much got nothing other than the standard vs modes.
no special modes, no story mode, no nothing else.
Final score:
Sound: 0 out of 3
Presentation:0 out of 3
Gameplay:2 out of 4

This game is a victim of its own marketing strategy, and doomed to fail.

Check the YouTube comments of any review about this game and you’ll have choruses of adherents parroting a few points:
1) They didn’t have a big budget!
2) The Devs love you, and this game, and are therefore immune to criticism.
3) If this game does well maybe that will motivate Nickelodeon to put more money into it!
All of these of course are said with a straight face while insisting this game will be the new competitive meta for fighting games, and that we should care who is the best at Spongebob vs Powdered Toast Man in a serious, e-sports kind of way while ignoring the fact that the game they received is literally incomplete.
First, look at the character renders — all of these characters live in uncanny valley, as if they’ve been born from the Rugrats 3D reboot universe and forced to fight against their will for all of eternity as punishment for some egregious sin.
Second, listen to the audio. The music sounds like stock music from the YouTube audio library. Have a spooky character? Let’s search «spooky» and use the first result. There’s no voice acting at all — literally no spoken word aside from the announcer. Between the grubhub advertisement visuals and the dreadful audio it feels like I’m playing one of those soulless click farm videos that shows up on Facebook.
Third, the roster is awful. There are 20 characters, nearly 50% of which are from 3 franchises. Major Nick franchises have no representation in the game. It’s a tragic waste of the Nickelodeon IP.
All of this is to say that this game is not only unfinished, but that what was originally shipped of it was not good.
Do the devs care? Sure, why not. Did they produce a game that’s worth $50? No. Will buying as many copies as you can and waiting for Nickelodeon to drop a money bomb on it and make it okay again work? No. … Expand

O jogo me surpreendeu muito positivamente. SInceramente eu esperava que fosse mais um jogo farmando franquias famosas, mas não é o caso.
A O jogo me surpreendeu muito positivamente. SInceramente eu esperava que fosse mais um jogo farmando franquias famosas, mas não é o caso.
A mecânica é o ponto alto desse título, apesar de ainda precisar melhorar algumas coisas, como a defesa, que na minha opinião não faz sentido nesse tipo de jogo, além da animação de defesa de todos os personagens ser um pouco tosca, pelo fato deles ficarem estritamente parados.
O visual dos personagens varia de cada um, o Bob Esponja por exemplo é muito bem feito, até por ser um personagem com poucos detalhes e estilizado, mas quando compara o mesmo com a Korra, Aang, ou esses personagens assim que são personagens com a apar>encia realista, dá pra notar que não são bem caprichados. O que poderia ser feito é tornar esses personagens como Korra, Aang, April mais estilizados como os outros, com proporções físicas menos realistas, como por exemplo a Lucy Loud e o Lincoln Loud, que são humanos mas são estilizados. Mas essa é a escolha que os desenvolvedores optaram, eu acho que fica uma desparidade grande entre os personagens por conta disso, mas entendo o lado deles.
Outra coisa que faria muito bem ao jogo seriam vozes dos personagens, não digo que precisam ser a dublagem para cada região, mas só de ter algumas vozes em inglês mesmo já dá mais vida a gameplay.
Existem apenas 20 personagens, eu imagino que vão vir muitos mais em forma de DLC, o que eu acho errado mas que hoje em dia já é comum. Porém, o jogo base deveria ser mais barato pra que faça sentido ter tantas DLCs, não está um preço extremamente caro, mas acredito que pelo conteúdo que é não deveria ser esse valor.
Não há a opção de textos em português, sinceramente não faz tanta falta, mas são tão poucos textos que seria algo muito simples de traduzir que acho que poderia ser feito por qualquer desenvolvedor do jogo para não ter que pagar uma tradutora, porque realmente são pouquíssimos textos e bem simples.
No geral é um jogo realmente bom apesar de parecer ter pouquíssimo investimento e talvez por conta disso pouco conteúdo também, mas parece ter sido feito com carinho. Eu gostei bastente e é uma exelente opção de jogo estilo Smash Bros pra quem não tem um console da Nintendo.
O esquisito é que uma nota 7 parece ser pouco e 8 parece ser muito. … Expand
