Fit for a King is a surprisingly deep game with a wide variety of interactions. The retro theme is well done and provides a nice charm to the game.
I am glad to see that Mable & the Wood was able to maintain the level of quality that I saw in my earlier preview. The platforming has a nice flow to it with a good balance of enemy hazard and platforming challenge. If you are a fan of metroidvania and or retro styled platformers I recommend you give Mable a chance.
Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble is a great improvement on its predecessor Tiny Metal.
Etherborn is a charming game with great level design and soundtrack. While the story and character were rather flat the gameplay more than made up for it.
I like tower defense games. I especially like tower defense games with a player character that can be controlled — I like the sense of involvement. That, coupled with the fact that this game is local co-op for the Switch drew me right into Duke of Defense: a tower defense adventure game set in the medieval age that gives a hack-and-slash feel even though it is a tower defense at heart.
The art style is great, and the humor manages to be a good mix of political satire, references, and great jokes. Irony curtain is an excellent time if you are looking for a relaxing point and click with great atmosphere.
Vambrace: Cold Soul is a great love letter to Darkest Dungeon.
As a party game, I recommend Duck Game highly. As a personal purchase, I still recommend Duck Game because it is a simple game done well.
Would I recommend Fell Seal: Arbiters Mark? Yes, I would. It has remarkable polish, gorgeous art and was simply a blast to play. I went in with low expectations but walked away grinning from ear to ear. If you are looking for a turn-based tactics game set within a stunning fantasy setting, Fell Seal: Arbiters Mark should be right up your alley.
