Summary

ARMS, a mix of boxing and shooting where you use extendable arms to battle your friends both locally and online! Take a Joy-Con in each hand and punch forward, twisting your fists to bend your attacks.

"Choose a fighting champion from around the world, equip your own combination of extendable arms, and then use a mix of button presses and quick hand motions to really take the fight to your opponent. Throw punches and guide them midflight to hit agile fighters, avoid incoming attacks with dashes, or trampoline high into the air to rain down fists from above. Power-up your punches to deal extra damage or curve your fists around obstacles to hit skittish opponents. Fill up your special gauge to dish out devastating combinations and finish them off. Unleash your inner fighter in this unbelievable sporting event! "

Stretching your arms to defeat your opponent is great, but the complete lack of usage of the rest of the body is disappointing. The game also died out pretty quickly because of there not being enough singleplayer content and online games getting repetitive and dull.

I wouldn't pay 10 dollars for it and this game's existence is proof that stores should allow returns. Annoying music, poor controls. Notice the sob stories in the 8 9 10 score ratings where people say give it a chance, i don't understand why people don't like it. Read between the lines and avoid this "game".

It looks great, the motion controls are awesome and it's a lot of fun to play. I never though I would enjoy boxing so much. Now I don't know if I will have time for Splatoon or Zelda anymore. It's soooo great!
