Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics Reviews
Nintendo describes Clubhouse Games as "eclectic" in their official description of the game on their website, and honestly, that's the best description of the game that I could come up with. Clubhouse Games looks good but lacks any real substance beyond its large catalog of games, many of which offer little more than the most basic of strategies. It's as if Nintendo decided to collect free games put out for Windows 98 and then give them an HD render, offering some idle amusement. Once Clubhouse Games gets discounted (and I'm sure that it won't be long), it might be worth the price tag, but I wouldn't invest in a full-price version right out of the gate.
For the amount of content, the number of hours you’ll play and the ability to play with friends, with or without the game, 51 Worldwide Games is easily one of the must-have Switch games this year.
51 Worldwide games offers simple games that are more familiar in the mobile field these days. It also supports online duels and is a good distraction while waiting for a wider supply of Nintendo releases.

There’s something here for players of all ages, with the diverse selection offering elements of strategy, action, quick-thinking and, most importantly, fun.
