8 / 10 - Tokyo Xanadu
Jul 5, 2017

Tokyo Xandu is an attempt from Nihom Falcom to tackle the Persona series. It is a solid RPG on its own although it is hard to draw comparison to the genre it targets here, but it has more than enough unique features to make it stand out on its own.

8 / 10.0 - Arms
Jun 8, 2017

Nintendo's innovative fighting game excels in the gameplay department and offers a robust multiplayer experience, but packs limited appeal for solo play. With a regular stream of content, though, ARMS is likely to have legs heading into the future.

ClaDun Returns: The Is Sengoku! might have its charm with its 8-bit retro visuals and a dungeon focused hack and slash gameplay but it starts to get repetitive rather quickly. There is not a lot to offer in term of story and content but if you are itching for a classic dungeon RPG, you might enjoy ClaDun Returns.

7 / 10.0 - Shadow Warrior 2

Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception is a fantastic visual novel that integrates some great ideas with its turn-based strategy combat. While the game's story is highly enjoyable, the pacing of the game is terrible at times, leading to some dull moments that dampen the overall experience.

Disgaea 5 Complete is a great port that not only bundles all the DLC in one package, it also manages to utilize the potential of the Nintendo Switch hardware to improve the experience from the original release of the game.
