Despite some difficult to ignore flaws, Gamers who spent any part of their childhood in the eighties or for one reason or another harbor a fascination for that era of entertainment have plenty of reason to check out MythForce.
Persona 5 Tactica, while trying some new things in the series ultimately falls flat. With a bland story and mediocre gameplay, I think its time we leave Joker and the gang alone.
With its adorable art style, relaxed gameplay, and creative spin on the farming sim genre, Roots of Pacha makes for a cozy experience perfect for the Nintendo Switch.
