Dungeon of the Endless provides a nice mixture of tower defense, RPG and dungeon crawler strategy with a great gameplay experience. The game is challenging, unforgiving, and requires a player who is ready to fail in order to eventually succeed.
NetherRealm Studios continues to prove that high-quality, story-focused content in fighting games has an audience, and they deliver that in spades with Aftermath.
Two new civilizations and maybe a new game mode Maya or Maya not tempt you to grab this DLC... it's ok, I'm sure my son would have cringed at that too.
51 Worldwide Games is a nice big package of classic games - but not much more than that.
Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition breathes new life into this epic JRPG
Minecraft Dungeons is the perfect distraction and while it doesn't offer much in terms of originality, it's an enjoyable block… err… hack 'n slash game set the wonderful backdrop of Minecraft in this family friendly version of Diablo with good gameplay, graphics and audio to help get you lost in pure entertainment. It's also a game that is played better with friends so if you need some mindless entertainment, check out Minecraft Dungeons!
All in all, I'd say my experience with Sakura Wars was quite mixed. I enjoyed the look and feel of the game as well as spending time with its characters. And save for the repetitive, shallow combat system and tropes, I'd say it's a solid introduction to the franchise for western audiences.
If you're a Switch owner with a passing interest in baseball, Super Mega Baseball 3 is a must buy. One of the best independent titles to date on the platform – and arguably the best indy sports title, period – it does everything its predecessors did…only better.
Well intended but average in execution, Red Wings: Aces of the Sky is a noble also flawed attempt at an arcade WW1 flight shooter. Despite occasionally beautiful visuals and audio, execution is sorely lacking.
Good for one or two hits, but don't over-dose!
If you are looking for a crime caper worthy of Scorsese, this is it.
Overall though, Trials of Mana is a visually impressive game with fun combat and engaging characters. It's a game I would definitely recommend to fans of the series or any JRPG fans out there as it's a solid remake that offers players a better way to play the original game.
Green Hell the survival crafting game. Can you survive in the Jungle? Build a base, survive the night and beware of things that go bump in the night.
Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee is a pure and simple port of the original game that runs perfectly
Someday You'll Return is a typical psychological horror game that brings nothing new to the table.
If you want a bit of grappling, swinging VR fun… I would recommend Slinger VR!
It appeals to a certain type of gamer, one who embraces the challenge and has the patience to explore the lore which is waiting for you.
Does SoR4 do the franchise justice? Yes! It gives older gamers the game they've been waiting for while offering younger players the chance to play a comic-book esque beat-em-up that's challenging and fun.
Overall A Fold Apart is a job well done.
A welcome and colourful addition to the growing list of local co-op party games this generation. Like Overcooked? Get Moving Out.
