The game offers a fun and creative experience for guests of all ages, allowing players to build and explore in a sandbox environment. However, many guests have reported performance issues, including slow loading times and crashes, particularly on the Switch. While kids enjoy the imaginative aspects, the technical difficulties can hinder gameplay. Guests recommend considering other platforms for a smoother experience, especially for multiplayer modes.

just buy it
a nice calming game when on creative mode, a little more rough while playing the actual game BUT super fun nonetheless. currently having some issues with the game booting me off but it may just be internet related

Zero fun
Trying to figure out how to help your child make this “game” work takes way too much time and effort. Unless you have another child or adult who already knows what to do then you will be stuck searching the internet for help with a child who wants to already be “playing” this “game” that still needs to be built. This is not a game. It’s like sims world but you make it with legos.

Minecraft
I love this game and play it a lot, maybe too much 😂. I love the blocky texture and all that stuff. The only thing I don’t like is that you have to have both a Nintendo and a Microsoft account to use the marketplace. I can’t change my skin, and the other features the game comes with (Mario themed world and skins, the other skins packs, and maybe something else all require those accounts, which I’m not allowed to have. But if you have kids and you don’t want them to have multiplayer access, then don’t sign into those accounts for them. It keeps them from having that access, but they won’t have marketplace either, so no mods, add ons, or additional skins. I love the game though, and would definitely recommend

Flex those creativity muscles
My kids are still playing with this even after a few weekends, so it really holds their interest. They enjoy both the creative and survival mode. I like that they can use split screen to play together, and can use local play to do this. I also like how they get to flex their creativity muscles with this game.

Endless hours of fun.
Minecraft a game that provides endless hours of entertainment. The game is continually updated so always new things to do. It’s a relaxing game in with free play and survival options. Great for all ages. Can play individually, with others on a local network or online.

Got boring fast
Overall it was Ok. One thing I have to say is that if you have gotten used to playing pocket edition with no crosshairs it really takes a while to get used to the switch version. Once I got used to the controls it was fun for a bit but got boring after a while.

Fun game
Bought this for my 5 year old for Christmas to go with his new switch. It has a learning curve, but once he got the hang of it he was golden. We have it on creative mode only.

Ran horribly 6 years ago, is even worse now.
This version of Minecraft (Pocket Edition) already runs pretty poorly compared to previous versions, but this Switch port in particular is in an unacceptable state, it’s worse than it was at launch 6 years ago. This version is in need of some serious quality control before it’s playable.

Great game but not for switch
I love Minecraft and I was excited to get it on my Switch so I could play on the go. However, it runs so slowly that it’s really frustrating to play and I don’t find myself reaching for it often - my 6 year old Macbook air runs Minecraft better than this. For reference, I have an OLED switch that’s about a year old and it has no issues running games like Skyrim. Great game, but don’t recommend buying it for switch unless you have no other system that can run it.

Awesome!
Great game! I love everything except the multiplayer split screens but I mean that’s just part of every sandbox game :)

Minecraft Ninetendo Switch
Do not order these switch games from Target-they will send you one that has been opened and then refuse to refund because it has been opened! Dishonest!!
