ITORAH is a fantastic Metroidvania and a must buy for those wanting an entry in the genre that tries new things.
PopSlinger is a tremendous game and one that may not be for everyone, but everyone who plays it will find something to love about it.
Reverie Knights Tactics is a good tactical RPG experience, but one that falls short of a top-shelf one overall.
Dimension Tripper Neptune: TOP NEP is an easy recommendation for anyone who ever loved Space Harrier. It's honestly more enjoyable than Space Harrier II was and delivers a fantastic modern interpretation of that kind of rail shooter with a level of color and polish that's unmatched.
Clockwork Aquario is a fantastic action-platformer that blends quick-moving playable characters and enemies alongside an inventive attack strategy.
Neptunia x Senran Kagura: Ninja Wars is a good action RPG when it comes to delivering fun, but is lacking in overall depth.
Hot Wheels Unleashed is a fantastic arcade racer at its core, but the overall product is hurt by the gacha mechanics.
Cruis'n Blast is the most thrilling racing experience on Switch and the best arcade racer in years.
Outside of iffy sound design, Kitaria Fables is an outstanding game from top to bottom.
F.I.S.T. Forged in Shadow Torch is a must-buy for Metroidvania fans looking for something that tries new things. It takes the well-worn staples of the sub-genre and blends them with a steampunk feel and a richer storyline than most
Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions is a fantastic arcade-style boxing game that showcases a lot of fast action while still paying tribute to the long-running Rocky franchise.
Overall, Prinny Presents NIS Classics Vol. 1 is an excellent collection for tactical RPG fans.
The Space Invaders Invincible Collection features a lot of fun packed into a single package - albeit with a lot of similarity between them.
Fire Tonight is short, sweet and unforgettable.
Mayhem Brawler is a top-notch beat-em-up that delivers far more variety and fun than most entries in the genre.
Super Sami Roll is a great game that holds itself back by being too beholden on paying homage to other franchises instead of blazing its own trail.
Cotton Reboot! is a fantastic re-imagining of a classic side-scrolling shooter.
Indigo 7: Quest for Love's puzzle formula is engaging and manages to be a mix of easy to learn, but tricky to master.
Neptunia ReVerse is a must-buy for anyone who has wanted to get into the long-running series, but didn't know where to start.
Astalon: Tears of the Earth is a tough, but fair NES-inspired Metroidvania that tests your mettle and makes it worthwhile.
