If you're trying to learn some basic Japanese, then Hiragana Pixel Party is a great entry-level game on Nintendo Switch to get you on the right track. You won't end up learning complicated words or how to have a conversation, but it will definitely take you from not knowing anything to knowing some of it, right? And you'll get to do it in a fun way that actually works, either at home or on the go.

I really enjoyed my time with Super Daryl Deluxe, a really unique beat' em up/Metroidvania that was definitely worth my time – and will be worth yours. The game is the drug trip I never knew I needed – in a good way. Honestly, I've played a ton of great Metroidvania titles, but none of them have made me laugh this hard – and so much. This is a game that deserves to be played!

Timothy vs the Aliens from Wild Sphere is a fun action platformer on PlayStation 4. It is not without its flaws, such as when there is some slow down during crowded fights or when the prompt for the Circle button remains in the screen even after you activate, but is a good indie release you will enjoy. It will take you around 3-5 hours to complete the game and get your Platinum trophy, depending on how long you take to find all collectibles.

6 / 10 - Deep Ones
Apr 27, 2018

At first, I liked the unique style and setting of Deep Ones, but the more I played, the more I realized there were some issues with the game. The controls felt too stiff, the time it takes you to fire more than once is too long, and the exploration as a whole felt too long and uninspired for long segments of the game. This is an inexpensive game that might be fun for you, but be ready for an experience that could end up feeling boring and frustrating.

Alchemist's Castle is a fun action platformer that certainly pays homage to the Castlevania games of a Metroidvania nature, and you will notice this in some of the enemies in the game, the skills you'll gain access to, the areas you will visit, and more. It pays homage to the vampire slaying series while doing its own thing, feeling like a minimalist and stylized indie version made available at a very affordable budget price of only $2.99.

8 / 10 - Strikers Edge
Apr 25, 2018

Strikers Edge is a fun arcade-style arena battle release on PlayStation 4 that is worth checking out. The gameplay mechanics are easy to understand but hard to master since this is basically a game in which you try to force your opponent into making a mistake so that you can corner him/her as you throw your weapon to slowly but surely chip at their health. Between the single-player campaigns and the local and online multiplayer side of things, you'll be spending dozens of hours playing this one on Sony's home console, and I'm sure you will have a blast doing so.

The Swords of Ditto is a great game with a beautiful art style and great music, fun and rewarding combat, and solid enemy design. The dungeons are fun to navigate and explore, paying homage to The Legend of Zelda series while also doing its own thing. I think the only thing that might rub some people the wrong way are the roguelite elements, but hopefully that is not a deal-breaker for you since you'd be missing out on a gem on PS4!

9 / 10 - Rogue Aces
Apr 24, 2018

Rogue Aces is a very addictive arcade-style 2D release that is very easy to recommend on PlayStation 4, and which I hope you download today! There's a ton to do in the game, and with all the extra modes you can unlock, it's more than worthy of your time and money.

Nightmares from the Deep 3: Davy Jones is a good end to the trilogy, tying up all stories and loose ends. At this point when you buy a game from Artifex Mundi, you should know what to expect, and this third game in the series does not disappoint. I love playing their games as quick releases between larger titles to keep things fresh for me, so I look forward to checking out their next one!

World Conqueror X is a great strategy game on Nintendo Switch with a lot of content to offer to both newcomers and fans of the genre. Taking on Scenario Mode will be the best way to prepare yourself for going to war against the world in Conquest Mode, greatly extending the overall time you're going to spend playing this one. Even after I had finished writing this review, I kept coming back to the game every now and then, making some progress in my journey to rule the world. I hope you give this fun game a try soon!

Old Man's Journey is a gorgeous game, with an art style that makes it seem as if you are playing a gorgeous storybook come to life.

Even though the premise and gameplay of Jettomero: Hero of the Universe are relatively simple, it makes for a fun adventure that feels different from the current batch of indie releases. It's a game that can be played in short bursts since exploring each planet takes around 5 minutes or so, and each solar system has between 3 to 5 planets. I recommend this release if you want to play a game that feels different while being short and to the point.

9.3 / 10.0 - EARTHLOCK
Apr 17, 2018

Earthlock is by far a much better game now that it has been upgraded and revamped, giving us an excellent homage to the classic JRPG of the previous century we can play at home or on the go with ease. [OpenCritic note: Tracey separately reviewed the PS4 (9.5) and Switch (9) versions. Their scores have been averaged.]

Overall a good fun game play.

If you're a fan of the SRPG genre, then I highly recommend that you get Mercenaries Saga Chronicles on Nintendo Switch. It has a ton of content at a very affordable $14.99, and completing all three games at least once will require dozens of hours of gaming at home or on the go. The games aren't perfect, and playing all three back to back to back might feel as if you're playing different (very long) chapters of the same game due to how they share the same overall look and gameplay mechanics, but for SRPG aficionados this won't be a deal-breaker.

7 / 10 - Titan Quest
Apr 10, 2018

Titan Quest is an interesting title to review in 2018. It looks good and has transitioned from PC to console fairly well, but the issue is that there are several ARPG on PS4 which play better and have new features that have upgraded the formula. But if you're in the mood for playing a revamped classic on Sony's home console, then you should definitely check this one out – who knows, we might a sequel at some point!

7 / 10 - Party Planet
Apr 9, 2018

With so many games in Party Planet there's definitely going to be some you're going to really like, while others might feel a bit boring. Overall, it's a good mix of games, especially if you have kids to play with. The one complaint I have is that I didn't like that a lot of the games were locked up instead of being made available from the start. After playing for several hours, there were still five games left to unlock. But if you're looking for a new party game for Nintendo Switch, this one might scratch that itch.
