Thymesia doesn't do anything new in terms of gameplay for a Soulslike, with some not that precise controllers and a little bit of framerate issues, the game is still a good point of entry for the beginners and veterans alike, specially thanks to it's focus on parrying.

Modern Warfare II brings an interesting campaign to complement the hit that was the 2019 game. Even if it feels a little bit "prone to tease" instead of a full story, is a fun experience. The MP is more of what make the first so successful, although it does have a few problems regarding parties and matchmaking.

God of War Ragnarök improves in every way the 2018 game. Not only delves deeper in the norse mythology, but also creates some fantastic side quests as an endgame after the campaign. Without a doubt Santa Monica took an strong foundation and pushed it to the max without loosing familiarity, Ragnarök is one of the best PS exclusives for this generation.

Pentiment is one of those games that you might not expect much and will blow you away. Even if it feels a little heavier in the discourse at the beginning, Obsidian crafted a wondeful world with rich characters and a town that feels alive. Even if is a little light on the puzzles and the mystery is a fantastic time of a great studio.

Jumpship tries its best to evoke Playdead's aura with Somerville and even if thematically there are some great ideas with a good art direction but the jump from 2D to 3D doesn't feel as polished as you think. The story needed some more time in game to develop properly or another focus, kind of dimishes the impact of the endings rendering them a little unearned.

New Tales from the Borderlands improves its technical side switching to Unreal Engine instead of the Telltale tool. Unfortunately the game feels inferior to the excellent first season specially due to some of its characters. There are good ideas in the game and the story is pretty good, but doesn't feel as interesting as the first game.

Citizen Sleeper is a fantastic game. Although the cRPG elements might be a little weird for the Switch, if you give it some time you'll find a beautiful game about what makes us human and how people can thrive even in the harshest situations. The game is a heartfelt adventure that you shouldn't miss.

Inertial Drift is an interesting racing that shows there's some new things to do in the racing genre, unfortunately content wise can feel a little short and some ideas definitely needed more time in the oven.

The Knight Witch tries to mix a Metroidvania with a bullet hell with quite mixed results. Not only it feels a little "unfair" even for the genre, but also the card mechanics doesn't feel as polished and functional as you might think.

High on Life is one of those games that have a lot of good ideas but the implementation of said ideas doesn't feel well done. Without a doubt the game explores some interesting topics on it campaign, but its gunplay and mechanics doesn't feel as polished as you might expect.

Unbound is one of the best games in the franchise. Although that might seem a compliment, it also shows how much NFS have been relegated in the last years. The new art direction is fantastic and really make it seem different from other games but some of its ideas aren't quite well implemented and might feel a little tedious.

Although the game gets interesting just before it ends, Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider is a fantastic throwback specially for fans of Ninja Gaiden or the recently released Cyber Shadow. Also the CRT filter in Switch OLED is just fantastic.

Sword Ship is one of those great ideas in gaming that even if it feels a little short. The Dodge'em Up works better than you think and the art direction is pretty interesting. That being said, the PS4 version running on PS5 definitely needs a patch to improve its performance.

Mortal Shell is a straight forward souls and the game definitely is great for fans of the genre that are looking for a classic Souls experience. Unfortunately the Switch is definitely not the best place to experience the game, if that's your only platform might be ok but if you have a PS5 or Series S|X there you'll find a better game experience.

Lone Ruin takes a lot of what made Hades great, although it's level design misses a lot of marks and makes the flow of combat a little stale. If you're looking for a shot experience and you're a Hades fan, this is definitely a game you should check out.

Lil Gator Game is just fantastic. A game about growing up with a cutesy coat of paint, show us how our priorities change when we grow up and with a innocent look remind us that sometimes... we just need to relax a little bit.

If you loved the Battle for Bikini Bottom Re-Hydrated, The Cosmic Shake is a great game. Not only Purple Lamp improves what make the remake great but also builds new mechanics without feeling like a copy. That being said, some of this mechanics need to be polished because they feel a little bit outdated.

Wave Break is a title with great ideas, but it's execution leaves a lot to be desired. What it could felt like a fun and a little violent version of Pro Skater, ends up being quite frustrating due to its controller and some design decisions.

Fashion Police Squad is a fantastic and different idea for an FPS. The game feels quite fresh with the idea of fashion and even if the story is formulaic, can feel quite fun. The problem? The part of using specific guns with specific enemies hurt the pacing of the gameplay.

Wanted: Dead is a game filled with good ideas but none of them feel as good as it should. The game definitely can be in the "So bad is good" pile (and it kinda is), but also feels like a more polished Devil's Third, a sequel could solve a lot of problems but ultimately is kind of a PS2/Xbox game released in 2023.
