Kaelyn Daugherty's Reviews
If you're a fan of retro arcade titles, or you just want something quick and fun to play on your Nintendo Switch then I definitely recommend getting Shootout. However, if you're looking for a more in depth experience or something with a strong storyline, then you might want to pass on this one.
I had a lot of fun playing Crossing Souls. The game turned out to be a lot more than I thought it was and even though I'd seen the references and heard the jokes, I could relate to it. Not to mention how much I love the overall look and sound of the game. It leaves you wanting more, but in a good way.
Element gets right to the point, but its also kind of repetitive. Still, overall it's an appealing game. The mechanics are easy to get the hang of and I love the retro polygon look. But if you're hesitant about this one, I'd say wait for it's inevitable eShop discount in the future.
As a fan of Crash Bandicoot my review probably seems a little biased, but overall the N. Sane trilogy really is a great set of games. If you're a fan of the series, or you just like a good challenge I definitely recommend getting this one!
Manticore: Galaxy On Fire offers great on the go play, beautiful scenery and fun customization options. While there isn't much variety throughout the adventure it's still a big step up from it's mobile predecessors.
Johnny Turbo's: Super Burger Time is a great on the go arcade game, and the ability to play with friends is a nice addition. I only wish there were a few more levels. But overall, if you're a fan of arcade games, or hamburgers I definitely recommend checking it out!
The Adventure Pals is a fun platformer that players of all ages can enjoy (assuming they like and appreciate the silliness of the gameplay and storyline), not to mention how great it looks. The story could be a bit more lengthy but it does have some replay value for those who like playing co-op or achieving 100% completion.
Shadow Bug is a fun, simple game that players can enjoy and take their time on. It hit's all the marks and does it's job well, not to mention how great it looks doing it. I highly recommend checking it out.
Typoman has some great original ideas. If you're a fan of platforming or puzzle games you'll want to check this one out. I just wish the game was a little longer.
Overall Romancing SaGa 2 was a great experience on the Switch. The console is a nice home for this retro gem and a lot of people are going to enjoy playing it for the first time. I highly recommend checking it out if you're a fan of this genre.
Sky Force Reloaded is a really fun arcade, shooter that looks great on the Nintendo Switch. If you're looking for a challenge or something to make you feel nostalgic check it out!
Draw a Stickman: Epic 2 is a really neat game. While it is on the shorter side it's still a fun adventure that anyone with a little imagination and creativity can enjoy. It's also priced under $10 which makes it even more appealing.
Puzzle Box Maker is packed with content. There are over 100 premade levels ready to play and an awesome mode where you can create you very own challenging levels for others to try. While it does seem a bit simplistic at times, its a fun game that will keep you busy for a while.
The Sexy Brutale is such a neat game and I really enjoyed my time with it. There's so many references to other games and like most murder mysteries, I felt a strong need to keep playing and uncover the truth of what was going on. It's too bad that the Nintendo Switch port suffers from horrible framerate issues. I'm really hoping the developers will make a patch for this soon because TSB is so awesome in every other aspect.
Caveman Warriors feels like a polished, retro arcade platformer. I like the way it looks and how simple the controls are. The gameplay can be a bit frustrating at times but being able to play with other people makes the experience a lot more enjoyable.
Human: Fall Flat could use some more content to keep players coming back, and sometimes Bob can be more than a little frustrating. But overall I enjoyed the use of motion controls and originality when it came to the levels and gameplay.
Revelations 2 is a great port for the Nintendo Switch. It looks good and the motion controls work really well. The game wasn't as scary as it could have been and I didn't like the recycling of enemies, but I enjoyed Raid Mode and being able to play with a friend.
Tomeling in Trouble is a very simplistic game that doesn't have much to offer. Unless you're looking for a quick game for the kids I recommend skipping out on this one.
Ectoplaza is a couch multiplayer game where you and up to 3 other friends can take the role of a whacky poltergeist and smash each other into oblivion. It sounds a lot cooler than it is but Ectoplaza has the potential to be a great game, if only it had some more to offer. If you have young children I recommend checking it out!
