Splatoon is a colorful third-person shooter where the player will run around with a pump through fun locations and color them in the color of his team, while pouring paint on the enemies. Splatoon is designed to bring a breath of fresh air to the world of shooters. The game's most important feature is not shooting enemies, but painting the environment to win.
Training
The game welcomes newcomers with a short but quality tutorial. The tutorial introduces the controls and features of the game mechanics. If friendly players have painted a path, the player can move around that area almost invisibly. In addition, the character's speed in this environment is doubled. Each character is armed with ink of his team's color. If the ink is poured on a wall, you can climb there, opening up new paths to domination. Ink tanks run out sooner or later, but you can replenish the supply in an area painted by your team. Players are armed with additional weapons, such as colored bombs.
Gameplay
The controls may seem a bit unusual, but after a few minutes a beginner is already making risky maneuvers. Splatoon remains a very beginner-friendly game while still leaving plenty of room for skill. Opponents are people trying to beat you, so reaction speed is incredibly important. Adjust your controls in the settings and go into battle.
Battles take place in abstract environments. Realism is not a strong feature of Splatoon. There are no trees, hills, or rivers. Instead, the shooting takes place on buildings that are frozen in the air.
Tip: Don't embark on multiplayer battles, train in career mode. The plot is this - the player meets an NPC who calls himself the commander-in-chief of the squad. His soldiers have been kidnapped by enemies and only the bravest guys can save them.
Cool gameplay awaits the player:
- Many levels
- Burning battles
- Simple puzzles
- Dexterity courses
At the end of the rounds, the player can't wait to see the fighter they need to rescue. Gradually the architecture of levels becomes more complex. For example, risky places appear, platforms where you can trip and fall down. Or another complication - an ink stick, sucking out the applied paint. From time to time it is necessary to remain as unnoticed as possible, so as not to die.
The online mode is set up like this: two teams of four fight each other and paint over the space. In three-minute battles the player must give full dedication, in the offset will be every meter. After each round the composition of the players is mixed: friends become enemies. There are different weapons in the arsenal: with different ranges and power, so that everyone can build tactics based on the gun.
The graphics are impressively bright - the colors look great. The frame rate remains constant, even in online mode.
Splatoon is the coolest party shooter that brings something new to the world of PC gaming. We recommend it to fans of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Fortnite.
