Meesh's tracking down the family tree...
Splatoon is Nintendo's wildly colorful, high-energy ink-slinging shooter where squids rule the world — and they’re absolutely here to party. Imagine a post-apocalyptic Earth where humanity is long gone and marine life has evolved into funky, fashion-obsessed teenagers who can switch between kid form (for running, jumping, and looking cute) and squid/octopus form (for swimming at ridiculous speeds through their own ink). That’s the world of Splatoon.
Splat scores of enemies and hunt for treasure in a single-player focused action shooter Play as a mechanic working with Deep Cut—a trio of swashbuckling musicians—and venture out into the mysterious Spirhalite Islands! Customize your character, kit yourself out with mechanical gadgets and ink-splattering weapons, and take on waves of foes called Salmonids as you raid the islands for salvage. This is mainly a single-player adventure, but you won’t be alone: one member of Deep Cut will raid alongside you in a powerful bot. You can also join with up to three other players online* or via local wireless**.

Splatoon 2 is a multiplayer third-person shooter in which players control characters known as Inklings and use colored ink to attack opponents and clear goals. Inklings can alternate between humanoid form, during which they can fire ink with their weapons, and squid form, which allows them to swim through ink of their own color in order to move quickly and replenish ink supplies.
Splatoon is primarily a team-based third-person shooter which is playable by up to eight players in 4-vs-4 matches, although the game also features a single-player campaign. Players control characters called Inklings, wich can change between human form and squid form. Transforming into a squid allows players to swim through ink of their own color, even up walls and through grates, hiding from the enemy and replenishing their ink supply in the process.
