Detective Pikachu Returns Review – A Simple Sleuthing Saga

Detective Pikachu Returns on Nintendo Switch

The tiny Pokémon detective is back on the case with his human sidekick, Tim Goodman, in Detective Pikachu Returns. Despite being a sequel to the first Detective Pikachu adventure released on Nintendo 3DS in 2016, there doesn’t seem to be a need to have any prior knowledge of the franchise. Thankfully, for those players who haven’t delved particularly deeply into any Pokémon games, Detective Pikachu Returns can easily be a standalone title. The cute coffee-slurping private eye catches you up with what you might have missed previously, setting you up for the adventure to come.

As a general fan of both Pokémon and detective stories, I was excited to sink my teeth into this family-friendly adventure mystery. That excitement was short-lived, however, as it quickly became apparent that this is a game aimed less at everyone in the family and more at young children. If I were under the age of twelve, I would be more inclined to enjoy the simple gameplay, but that is not to say Detective Pikachu Returns is without its charms.
