7.5 / 10.0 - Sprint Vector
Apr 25, 2018

Sprint Vector is the newest VR sport title to be released and manages be fun to play while also providing a great workout for those who care. Some design flaws—including occasionally clipping into the environments and the MOVE controllers not performing intended motions—hinder the experience. Nevertheless, the core mechanics of Sprint Vector are done surprisingly well and is absolutely an experience you should try if you have access to VR.

7.5 / 10.0 - Crossing Souls
Apr 13, 2018

Crossing Souls is a solid retro inspired 80's love letter to all our favorite shows and movies from that era. The gameplay and some of the dialogue don't always work, but the nostalgia should be enough to make for an enjoyable experience.

8 / 10.0 - Octahedron
Apr 2, 2018

Octahedron is quite the spectacle to look at with its colorful visuals and unmatched style in the platforming genre. While the gameplay isn't exactly revolutionary, this is still an enjoyable indie title that you can keep coming back to if you need some something exciting in your life.

8 / 10.0 - Q.U.B.E. 2
Mar 29, 2018

Q.U.B.E. 2 is an immensely satisfying first-person puzzle solving experience that is beautiful to behold and fun to play. The narrative holds it back from achieving greatness, but you can't go wrong spending an evening solving these mind-bending puzzles.

7.5 / 10.0 - Bleed 2
Mar 17, 2018

Bleed 2 is a great action title that improves on the first game in a almost every way. It may be a short experience, but any fan of bullet-hell type shooters should check this out.

8.5 / 10.0 - Furi
Mar 10, 2018

Furi is an excellent action, hack n' slash shooter that tells a compelling story with an outstanding soundtrack. I'd be doing my fellow gamers a disservice if I wasn't evangelizing how much I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Furi.

8.5 / 10.0 - Moss
Mar 7, 2018

Moss is an outstanding achievement for VR and further proves what makes the platform so compelling. If you own a PS VR or are looking to buy one, Moss is a perfect reason to jump in.

7.5 / 10.0 - The Sexy Brutale
Feb 10, 2018

The Sexy Brutale is a wonderful murder-mystery experience that features a great story and cast of characters. Unfortunately, the dreadful frame rates, long load times, and poor optimization on the Switch make this hard to recommend unless you plan on playing it on another platform.

World to the West is a charming and gorgeous adventure that feels right at home on the Nintendo Switch. Rain Games have crafted a tale that is every bit as good as Teslagrad, and possibly even better.

Humble Hearts has managed to create a fun little title with Never Stop Sneakin'. While far from perfect and lacking the complexity to make the gameplay memorable, the fast-paced combat is addictive and the Metal Gear Solid references are fantastic.

Oh...Sir! The Hollywood Roast is a fine game to play with friends for an afternoon, however, quickly becomes an afterthought after a couple of hours of play. There is some fun to be had, just don't expect a deep and engaging experience.

7.5 / 10.0 - Knight Terrors
Jan 11, 2018

Knight Terrors unfortunately arrived out of nowhere, but don't skip this little indie gem. With a fun and addictive gameplay loop and reasonable price tag, Knight Terrors is a worthy addition to anyone's Switch library.

7.5 / 10.0 - Serial Cleaner
Dec 24, 2017

Serial Cleaner succeeds in bringing a strong presentation and 70's style to the stealth/action genre. The gameplay mechanics are surprisingly deep even with hit-or-miss AI presentation. And, although simple, the art style is great. I never knew obstructing justice could be so much fun.

Cat Quest was a charming and satisfying lite-RPG adventure with a cute cast of characters and visually pleasing world to explore.

Since Radial-G Racing Revolved is one of the few futuristic PSVR racers on the market, it may be worth a cursory glance. Unfortunately, I can see it becoming obsolete once a juggernaut like Wipeout VR comes into the fray.

Heroes of the Monkey Tavern is a worthy addition to the dungeon crawling genre, although it is undoubtedly retro to a fault. While the simple graphics and generic enemy designs are disappointing, the actual dungeon crawling is effective in its purpose, and can be enjoyable if you come in expecting it to be nothing more than what it is.

7.5 / 10.0 - Oure
Dec 6, 2017

Oure embraces the freeform nature of the adventure genre with wondrous exploration through the clouds as a dragon. While taking down the colossi can become frustrating due to the controls, Oure still has the wings to stand up to Journey and ABZU admirably.

7.2 / 10.0 - Tiny Barbarian DX
Dec 1, 2017

Tiny Barbarian DX is a solid retro action-platformer with a gorgeous pixel based art style and great music. While the simple control scheme and repetitive nature of the title won't blow your mind, there is enough enjoyment and fun to be had while playing in spurts.

The Mummy Demastered hits most of the right notes in bringing back nostalgia-driven 16-bit gameplay and aesthetics. While not without its flaws, anyone looking for something similar to Metroid or Axiom Verge would do well to give this a shot.
