I'm loving Super Mario Bros. 35 and can't wait for the many inevitable updates that it'll receive in the coming months. The blend of its highly competitive online structure with classic 8-bit gameplay is simply a blast and I hope to see you online, too.
CastleStorm II isn't a bad game but it's definitely a substantial step down from the classic original. Speaking of which, after playing this over the past few days, I think I'll go back to enjoying the fantastic first game as it's a far more polished experience.
Out of the hundreds of shoot 'em ups that I've played in my decades of gaming, I can easily say that Ginga Force is one of the best. Its combination of skill-testing stages, rewarding customisation, and lively presentation make it one must-have shmup.
Alwa's Legacy is a lighthearted Metroidvania that's hard to put down once you start playing it. With tight gameplay that features an impressive amount of variety, I certainly recommend picking it up if you love exploring 2D worlds.
Those who have been playing video games for as long as I have will adore what Tamiku has to offer. From its charming visuals to its brilliant arcade-style gameplay, I highly recommend it to any old-school arcade game enthusiast.
Hades is in the upper echelon of roguelikes so if you enjoy action-packed combat, concise yet engaging stories, and unlocking rewarding goodies then you'll have a phenomenal amount of fun trying to escape the Underworld.
You might enjoy Trollhunters: Defenders of Arcadia if you're a fan of the show but even if you are, there's no denying just how unchallenging and unrefined of an experience it is. Here's hoping that a much better Trollhunters game is made down the road.
I love when indie games offer something unique and special and Going Under certainly does with its clever premise, striking style, and supremely rewarding roguelike structure and beat 'em up gameplay. If only real internships could be this fun.
Warsaw does what few World War II games do by crafting an oppressive campaign that can feel unfair yet manages to remain hopeful.
Paradise Killer is a rarity amongst detective games as it accomplishes the feeling of being an actual investigator within its unique setting.
Party Hard 2 is definitely a step up from the original but it's still plagued with dumb AI and gameplay that can be rather tedious at times.
Fans of old-school RPGs will get a kick out of Atom RPG and its Fallout-inspired campaign but it's best to stick with the PC version.
With many 3D platformers out there, I'm glad that Tin & Kuna offers a challenge-based setup as it makes mastering levels enjoyable.
Tamarin may be an adorable game but it's also one that'll make you wonder if it's sponsored by the NRA with its odd use of guns.
Kingdom Rush Origins continues the tradition of supremely rewarding tower defence gameplay and it plays wonderfully on Switch.
Just like its country bumpkin counterpart, Caveman Tales is a barebones simulation game that can be good to wind down with.
Fans of unconventional arcade-style experiences will love what GORSD has to offer, especially if they plan on playing it with friends.
It'll warrant a few laughs and is rather fun in co-op but Death's Hangover doesn't really do much to break out of the Breakout mold.
If you want a simple fast-paced arcade puzzle game to play with friends then you certainly can't go wrong with playing Batu Ta Batu.
Bounty Battle's character roster is the only thing it has going for it as everything else comes across like a school project gone wrong.
