Demon Slayer Sweep The Board Is A Waste Of Money 

I don't really care about games being "rip-offs", Crash Team Racing is technically a Mario Kart rip-off, but I like CTR way more. That being said, this doesn't seen to be worthy of full price

I don't love the argument that they need to make need models and assets for each game. CC2 is well known for making pretty cutscenes and models and I'm sure those take time to make. No different from Pokémon reusing models throughout 1-2 console generation(s) instead of remaking the same thing slightly better from scratch. It saves resources to put towards improving other areas (well, not in the case of this game clearly)

Aw, I was really looking forward to play this game with my friends. They're not gamers but are huge Demon Slayer fans, so I thought that it would be a good common ground between video games and Demon Slayer for all of us to enjoy playing the game since they liked the trailer for the game.

The way i see this game is it's more like a stopgap between Hinokami Chronicles and it's sequel with some new assets being made for it like how Naruto Storm series has it's own filler games in between it's mainline entries.

This reminds me of One Piece Pirates Carnival, it was also a Mario Party like game and yet it managed to have a somewhat unique mechanic while implementing aspects from the story in the game, like having the villains, side characters etc appear and some of them giving you "boss fights", some giving you map effects that can hinder your opponents or benefit you. Back then it was released during the Water Seven arc, so it featured the fun Davy Back Fight games on top of the already existing minigames, AND they have unique, character specific 1v3 games that were a lot of fun. That game from years ago somehow still manages to be better than this one released in current day and I find it absolutely sad. Honestly, I recommend playing Pirates Carnival instead of this.

This review is garbage. Sweep the Board was fun despite this being a Mario Party clone. And yet you make it out to be bad because it's a clone. By that logic Crash Team Racing Nitro Feueled is bad cause it's a "Mario Kart Clone"

Comparing it to Mario party is a given. But it looks interesting. If it was on ps5 I’d buy it to play with friends. And because a sequel of sweep the board with a higher budget would be really cool. But it being solely on switch, i don’t see it doing crazy numbers

7:01 "I don't really know anyone who'd be clamoring to play as him." I'd pick Genya over Murata ANY day of the week. With that aside, I agree with some points you made about the game, but I personally like it. It definitely isn't worth the $60 dollar price tag though.

i feel like you’re giving this a little too much shit. i think it would be fun to play with other people. and all the skill training and different kinds of mini games are pretty fun and cool, because some of them call back to the episodes, like the one where you have to make sure you hit tanjiro when he stops breathing in his sleep. it’s a cute callback for those who have seen the anime. also, yeah it’s not entirely original, it’s a mario party clone. but it’s no different than uno having different versions of uno, or other board games having another theme to it. this is basically mario party, but with a demon slayer repaint, and i don’t think it’s that bad. i’d play it. it’s not as ass as you make it seem. it’s not worth 60 dollars-more like 30. but mario party cpu’s aren’t good either. they’re also either idiotic or way too good.

My biggest issue with this game is that the balance is whack. Money is way too easy to get, and you can just buy like 4 swap character spaces items at once. When everyone is doing this, it just comes down to the turn order. It will give you items on your last turn when you can't even use them, and the worst is when someone lands on a demon surprise attack space. it just randomly punishes players indiscriminately every time rather than the person who landed on it. Doesn't give a roulette of possible consequences, doesn't create a minigame where the loser is punished, or everyone except the winner is punished. Nope, it just picks at random and chops your rank point count, effectively taking any effort or strategy and throwing it down the drain out of pure RNG. I get that it's mario party and RNG is a big part of it.. but when the player who consistently played the worst wins in the end because a Muzan boosted demon chopped everyone's else's points by 1/3 in the last 5 turns, then what's the point? The entire game gets decided by that space regardless of how many times you strategically got to the destination or how many times you did the best during the demon battles. The game brings you from first to last place, or vice versa out of no fault of your own on a whim due to this one space. For the sheer sake of proving a point, I deliberately went full troll with 3 other people and made sure to hit this space every time I could, and it resulted in the winner being entirely random and decided by this one space. No amount of getting destinations, slaying demons or winning minigames made any impact on this. Whoever got their points reduced the least by these spaces won the game 100% of the time. The presence of this event alone ruined the game for us .

As a diehard Demon Slayer fan who bought this game because I'm a diehard Demon Slayer fan, he's right. (Though Genya is my favorite character, so yes, I am clamoring to play as him!) Though I have always liked the Mario Party franchise, and was definitely excited for this, it is just so cheaply made and boring. But yeah it might be more fun if I actually had someone to play with. Also, a lot of mechanics in this game just piss me off. Like I used a Total Concentration dice to perfectly map out my steps to get to the Destination, and then end up on one of the help spaces afterwards, but the game cuts you off there even though you have remaining steps. And when someone steps on a demon attack tile, even though you were not the one to step on it, you have a random chance to be hit by the demon and lose Rank, while the person who stepped on it walks away free. We need to get CC2 extremely far away from the Demon Slayer franchise. All they know how to do is to create the exact same Naruto arena fighter, reskin it, and resell it for the same $60 price. And I know many people aren't going to like this opinion, but arena fighters were never good or fun to play to begin with. It's the most boring, repetitive game format that just consists of doing the same thing over and over again, and there's not even any reward to it. People may roll their eyes when I say this, but yeah, the perfect Demon Slayer game would be another open-world RPG like Breath of the Wild (or I guess we say Tears of the Kingdom now). Not just because open-world games just tend to be the best games ever made, but because Demon Slayer as a series is PERFECT for that kind of game. It's built for that kind of game structure. Spawn in with nothing as your own created character, traverse that big open-world map, find a trainer for any breathing style you choose, master it, defeat demons to rank up, defeat the Lower Moons, eventually the Upper Moons, Muzan, etc. Multiplayer capabilities are of course a bonus.

It would be interesting if they made a Demon Slayer game that is similar to Yu Yu Hakusho Makyou Toitsusen on the Genesis by developer Treasure.

My copy is arriving tomorrow.

What are your thoughts on the new hxh game trailer

This game makes it clear what the actual audience for Demon Slayer is

Him: don't buy this game just playing the other demon slayer game or Mario party. Me who has both games and still got it to play it with friends as dumb as me.

I don't really care about it being a knock off, or reusing assets, but if the mini games aren't fun then I guess I won't buy it

Bro the only reason I like this game (other than I am one of those die hard Demon Slayer fans) is the fact they at least made the hashira playable characters other then Shinobu,Giyuu,Rengoku,Tengen. because all Mitsuri,Obanai,Sanemi,Gyomei,Muichiro, got was a few cut scenes at least. I did not get the game and if I did I would have mainly played it with friends only because bots are basically Bowers and we would just be toads against them

Didn't know that game even exists

does the king ever respond?

I'm gonna buy this based on this video

I heard way to much Mario Party in this review. Unsubscribed. Very boring video. 3/10 review.

It would of been better if the "mini games" were more interactive like jump swing your sword to pop the most balloons and you could hit each other. Mini car battles and you can use your moves. Land on a vs or a battle mini game space and it's literally like a 1 minute fight. They could of made there own version and made it combat heavy.

Just think about it; at the same price of this game you can buy 2-3 decent Demon Slayer figurines, or buying 6 volumes of the manga, if you care that much for Demon Slayer. If you care about the gameplay... well, you have Mario Party.

I honestly like it because I like the mini games being like the towns and the characters being demon slayer characters but that’s just my opinion!

Make another my Hero Academia ultra rumble it is in 4th season

Its not a Nintendo exclusive its coming out on playstation and xbox in july in Europe

It’s not switch exclusive I got it on ps5. Just played with some friends and had a blast. It’s a Mario party rip off but a good one.

I don’t get marking it being a “mario party rip off” as a negative Like, if the game was good, are you still gonna mark it as a negative? I never liked the idea that Nintendo are the only company allowed to make party games

Darn, i wish this was better than it came out. Being a Mario Party clone isnt a bad thing, but it doesn't feel unique. I wish it wasnt priced at $60 too. Mario Party has the high quality and polish you expect from a Nintendo game. So having Demon Slayer Sweep the board at the same price, is pretty much sending your game to fail day 1. But Sweep the Board looks like its going to end up having a deep discount every other Friday, a little later down the line.

I knew that this game would be doomed from the start. If is so OUT of place to make a Mario Party knock off of Demon Slayer series.

In this time they could of had many dlcs in there other demon slayer game

I know nothing of Demon Slayer, but as a fan of party games. This one hits pretty good.

Do you think this game is like Mario party? 😂

I'm waiting for hinokami chronicles2

What if I miss Mario party but I have xbox.. i was nervous about purchasing untill this video. Now im sold ! Im so glad these negative feed back marketing works.. im excited for my pre-order now

Thank you being so kind all mighty all knowing loving God help me and these people to better understand you

So it's like Mario Party

It's for fun it's not serious man I got mine on sell so chill stop being mad at a game that others might like

I want to know the game, not mario party

It actually seems pretty fun

Did they really drop a Mario party game with. Demon slayer skin :/

And it just came on PlayStation and Xbox😭 and it pretty good

Mario party sucks so i welcome this with open arms

Tanjiro Party

You will get Arena fighters until the end of time

This game is fun why you say it's bad

Good demon slayer game when?

no no no all you people crying over arena fighters here you go another anime game people weren’t going to buy in the first place

Y’all wanted anime games to not be arena fighters lol here you go. The problem isn’t arena fighters. The problem is anime games are just cheap, no matter the genre.

so what if its a ripoff there are lots of rip offs in the world

*sarcasm* Wow...another fail anime adaption video game...I am shocked and disappointed...how could this happen? 🙄

People don't criticize like this, constantly comparing to another and not giving a proper review. Man hates ripoffs, we get it but maybe talk about the game without complaining while comparing like a 18yo. $60 yikes I agree but what ya gonna do? Just wait for the sale 😂😂

IF ITS NOT LIKE JUMP FORCE, NINJA STORM SERIES, OR DEMON SLAYER THE ARENA FIGHTER, OR DBZ XENOVERSE OR DBZ FIGHTERZ THEN ITS TRASH. I RATHER PLAY MARIO PARTY

Come on demon slayer is better then mario

It just way more luck based then mario party

Bro really is just complaining even though his video’s are the one thats stupid and boring

Coming to Xbox

I don’t agree with this review-

Dude 1/10

I loved the game.

Wow Mario party every few seconds here, it’s not the be all end all party game, there a lots of fun party games out there and honestly in my opinion Mario party is not that amazing. This review gets a -2 out of 10 😒

🍿🥤

This game makes mario party 10 look like a masterpiece 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Bruh just buy hinokami chronicles

oh shut up it doesn't matter if it's similar to mario party it's fun

waaaaa I don't like people making games similar to other ones waaaaaah

If it feels so mario party its probably cause it is. Only on Switch comes to mind

You didnt get the memo right? Its coming to every gaming platform, xbox (last and new gen), PlayStation (last gen and new gen) and Even PC. I already own superstars. It got boring 6 months after release because theres not enough people playing online anymore and theres nothing new, its all HD minigames from previous mario party games. This game is giving me a breath of fresh air with the characters I love and a real grinding reason to olay thus game for many hours to complete. Too bad you made a 💩 review and it may draw people away from the game, or maybe not. Chances are my comment wont draw your views away either so your opinion matters as much as mine, mine is the factually informed opinion tho.

Anime games are meant for mobile this I learned. And kiss that refund bye cause switch dont offer em
