If you’ve played a Warriors game before, then you’ve basically played One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4.

8 / 10 - La-Mulana

Though brilliant in its design, La-Mulana is definitely one of those games that will only appeal to a dedicated few.

9 / 10 - La-Mulana 2
Mar 24, 2020

The original La-Mulana was a masterpiece in its own right, but we’d contend that it’s been edged out by the sequel.

Whether or not Langrisser I & II is the release for you ultimately depends on your affection for decidedly simpler, but more straightforward RPGs.

9 / 10 - Afterparty
Mar 9, 2020

Afterparty is certainly an acquired taste, but—like a fine wine or a good beer—it’s definitely worth the effort.

There’s something here for everyone in Rune Factory 4 Special, but its greatest strength is how it ties together everything into one thoroughly enjoyable package.

Knights and Bikes is a delight to behold and a testament to the creative power of the talent at Foam Sword.

Code Shifter is basically a playable version of an unenthusiastic sigh. There is platforming. There is fighting. There is a story. Each of these things is there, but all of them feel underdeveloped or underutilized in their own way, and never really come together all that well.

In sum, Arc of Alchemist is not worth your time.

Don’t waste your time or money on this poor approximation; go download Puzzle & Dragons for free on your phone for a much more enjoyable experience and save your money for much more worthwhile releases for the Switch.

7 / 10 - Dauntless
Dec 22, 2019

Though this Switch port mightily struggles from a performance perspective, it’s still enjoyable on a consistent enough basis that such issues can be mostly overlooked. It literally costs you nothing more than time to give Dauntless a try, and we’d highly recommend you give it a shot.

The short length and simple concept keep it from having much staying power, but it’s a thrilling experience if you’ve got a night to yourself and feel like giving yourself a good scare.

Yacht Club Games continues to impress with its support for Shovel Knight, and we’d highly recommend you experience Shovel Knight Showdown one way or another.

This is likely the last we’ll see of the ‘core’ Shovel Knight series for some time, and King of Cards acts as a worthy swansong for a now-legendary platformer. Bravo.

Auto-runners don’t get much better than this, and it’s a blast to play through.

It’s both easy and difficult to recommend Romancing SaGa 3 as it’s a title that you’ll either love or hate with very little room for a middling response.

It’s an excellent ‘winding down before bed’ sort of game, and though it might not fully live up to the series legacy, we’re still excited for whatever Level-5 is planning next for Kat.

Disney Classic Games: Aladdin and The Lion King is an unfortunately tough release to recommend.

It’s hard to recommend a game such as Disgaea 4 Complete+, as it’s the sort of game that you either love or hate – there really is no in-between.

We’d give Overwatch a recommendation, but with the caveat that you should consider first why you’re buying it. If you intend on playing it plenty when undocked, we can’t recommend it enough, but if you intend on mostly playing on the TV, consider first buying it elsewhere.
