8.5 / 10.0 - Patapon 1+2 Replay
Jul 18, 2025

PATAPON 1+2 REPLAY isn’t trying to reinvent the series. It doesn’t need to. These two games stand tall as some of the most original titles ever made for a handheld, and they work just as well now with a controller in hand and the volume up. It’s a love letter to fans and a gateway drug for newcomers. The drums are calling. The tribe is waiting. And the beat goes on.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is a content rich package that delivers hours of addictive gameplay and arcadey old school fun. Its technical polish, responsive controls, and lovingly recreated levels make it an essential experience for both veterans and newcomers. Yet, the mishandling of Pro Skater 4’s campaign and the gutted soundtrack prevent it from achieving true greatness.

No Sleep For Kaname Date does not try to be a full sequel, and that works in its favor. It is a focused, gripping side story that builds on everything that made AI: The Somnium Files memorable. Longtime fans will appreciate the returning cast and deeper lore, while newcomers might find it a weird but fascinating entry point. It is not as sprawling or thematically rich as nirvanA Initiative, but it offers a more compact, puzzle-heavy experience that still packs a punch. At its core, this is a game about dreams, delusions, and the connections that transcend reality. It is all wrapped in a murder mystery involving aliens, sentient eyeballs, and idol songs. If that sounds like your kind of strange, don’t sleep on it.

I definitely think that hardcore RPG fans will find a lot to enjoy with this game. For fans of the series, it might be worth revisiting as well. The jump to HD might appeal to some, however, there’s something to be said about the loss of the game’s nostalgic, chunky pixels on the 3DS. I looked up various pieces of gameplay for comparison’s sake, and character models look significantly worse in HD thanks to their rough polygons that were made for a specific system. Then again, longtime fans might love to see the game they know so well in a new light! As a newcomer myself, I wasn’t terribly impressed. While the combat is just fine and the job system offers neat combinations, I found the story and its characters so crushingly uninteresting that I started to dread picking up my Switch 2 to continue the journey. Thankfully, the gorgeous music is available for streaming, as I don’t plan to revisit Luxendarc anytime soon.

6.5 / 10.0 - Warside
Jul 11, 2025

While Warside doesn’t rewrite the rules of turn-based tactics, it does a fantastic job of polishing and modernizing them. The pacing is tight, the strategic depth is strong, and the tools it offers players , from custom maps to faction variety , ensure that it never overstays its welcome. Whether you’re a grizzled tactics veteran or a newcomer curious about the genre, Warside offers a compelling and addicting battlefield to master.

By the end of the adventure, you’ll feel like you’ve made memories, not just completed objectives. With its handcrafted style, joyful mechanics, clever puzzles, and heartfelt characters, Ruffy and the Riverside stands as one of the most charming and memorable platformers in recent memory.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is a profound and masterful achievement that blends innovative gameplay, cinematic storytelling, and technical excellence into a cohesive and unforgettable experience. Just like the first game, this full fledged sequel may not appeal to everyone, but the game’s ambition, polish, and artistry are undeniably beautiful.

7 / 10.0 - Locomoto
Jun 30, 2025

Locomoto brings your dreams of train ownership to life in a cozy environment. You visit destinations around the land while completing tasks. Expanding the train by finding collectibles and personalizing it is enjoyable. There are a lot of simple fetch quests and some visual mistakes are noticeable. For a cozy train experience that lets you manage your own train, Locomoto is fantastic.

7.5 / 10.0 - Date Everything!
Jun 25, 2025

Overall, Date Everything offers a refreshingly unique experience, packed with clever humor and witty dialogue. While it may not be the most visually striking game, its charm and creativity more than make up for it. I never imagined that everyday objects could be so hilariously dateable—until this game proved otherwise.

7.5 / 10.0 - Rematch
Jun 23, 2025

Rematch is a soccer sim with arcade soul, a competitive beast dressed in cleats, and an early access title that could very well score big, if it keeps its foot on the gas and listens to its fans. For now, it’s not quite the beautiful game, but it’s definitely a beautiful start.

RAIDOU Remastered is what a detective noir JRPG should be: strange, stylish, and loaded with secrets. It’s a cult classic polished to a modern shine, one that drags you into its smoky streets and refuses to let go until the last case is closed. Whether you’re a long-time fan or totally new to the Devil Summoner series, this is one case you don’t want to leave unsolved. Step into the fedora, summon a demon or two, and prepare to lose yourself in a murder mystery with a pulse made of thunder and shadows.

6.5 / 10.0 - FBC: Firebreak
Jun 18, 2025

Remedy’s trademark creativity flickers in the margins of FBC: Firebreak but never truly takes center stage. The game’s content is thin, its narrative underdeveloped, and its gameplay loop too derivative to stand out in a crowded genre of cooperative shooters. That being said, there are flashes of fun, but the team needs to put in a lot more work if they want Firebreak to leave a lasting impression down the road.

9 / 10.0 - The Alters
Jun 17, 2025

The Alters lets you recruit alternate versions of yourself to survive on a desolate planet. It’s a unique concept that ties in with the story and makes you curious about what comes next. Figuring out what to do next can be difficult and having to progress to unlock upgrades feels inconvenient. This game has an interesting concept that knocks the premise out of the park.

Fans of grand strategy games will find a lot to love here. While It’s not as intuitive as Civilization by any means, the sheer depth of systems and aspects to growing your kingdom as you strive to unify Japan can be a welcome addition for lovers of grand strategy games. Nobunaga’s Ambition is a great edition to your Switch 2 library!

Nice Day for Fishing might look like a one-joke game on the surface, but it’s got a whole ocean of heart underneath. It’s a brilliant send-up of RPG conventions, sure, but also a genuinely fun and heartfelt adventure in its own right. So whether you’re here for the jokes, the deep-sea boss battles, or just looking to save the world one cast at a time, this game proves that sometimes the biggest legends don’t wield swords. They carry rods, wear funny hats, and never let a bad cast stop them from trying again.

5.5 / 10.0 - Scar-Lead Salvation
Jun 8, 2025

So where does that leave Scar‑Lead Salvation? It’s a retro-flavored experiment with genuine flashes of fun but drags them down with repetitiveness and narrative fluff. You feel like an old-school shooter in a modern shell—fun when it works, frustrating when it doesn’t. There’s competence and charm here, but not enough depth or polish to sustain it. You’ll enjoy the nostalgia, the immediate gunplay thrills, and the occasional boss crescendo—but you’ll walk away wishing there was more variety, pacing, and story payoff to back it up.

Guardians of Azuma is a solid Rune Factory game that does most things right on a basic level – it’s not broken, it’s cute, and it’s plenty approachable – but it doesn’t stand out in any big way. It’s more like a pleasant afternoon chat with old friends than a fireworks show. So while I’d still recommend it to folks who adore farming sims and want a new cozy world to chill in, I’ll be honest: it’s definitely not the peak of the series for me. The villagers and the concept of dancing to heal the world are fun, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that this installment just played it a bit too safe. If you’re wondering why it’s my least favorite Rune Factory to date, it boils down to that lack of spark and depth compared to earlier entries. It’s a “fine” game with nice moments, but my nostalgia was left wanting a bit more of the old Rune Factory magic.

8.5 / 10.0 - Projected Dreams
Jun 4, 2025

Projected Dreams is a heartfelt homage to the power of imagination and the bonds that tie us to our past. It’s a gentle reminder of the joy found in simple pleasures, like casting shadows on a wall and weaving stories from the shapes that emerge. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing gaming experience or a trip down memory lane, Projected Dreams offers a cozy escape into a world where shadows tell the most illuminating stories.

Neon Apex: Beyond the Limit gives you an intense racing environment where speed is everything. Rushing past the competition is an exhilarating feeling. However there isn’t much that separates Neon Apex from other racing games and the other modes are ordinary.

6.5 / 10.0 - Viscerafest
May 24, 2025

Viscerafest could easily appeal to boomer shooter fans who want a high-speed challenge that demands mastery of specific gameplay. However, the game’s obtuse design choices with gunplay, ammo management, enemy design, traversal, and level layout might leave most players feeling more alienated than the actual aliens Caroline crushes.
