What players say

85% of 34,998 reviews are positive · 89% of 375 in the last 30 days

Players praise the humor, faithfulness to the show, tactical grid combat, and power mixing. The dominant complaint is the required Ubisoft account and launcher, which players say can fail to connect, sync, activate, or start the game. Some also report combat turns locking until they switch away from and back to the game.
