Splatoon Raiders Game Review
As the first single-player-focused entry in the franchise, Splatoon Raiders hopes to bring in a new player base, but it may have lost some of its identity in the process.
― Splatoon was always a series that I had a fleeting interest in. With each new entry, I'd play it for a week or two before never coming back again. Granted, it's mainly because I'm not a multiplayer person, not because the games we...
