Sep 18, 2017

You spawn as a randomly generated king or queen inside a wild, untamed wood with nothing more than your crown, your steed and a sack of coins. As you gallop through the side-scrolling forest, you pass a stone structure which spells out “Kingdom.”

The premise is simple. You are a little glowing cube called Midnight on a quest to retrieve your friends 36 star fragments.

4 / 5 - Severed
Sep 1, 2017

Given its brevity, you may dismiss Severed as a game for a rainy, bored day, but don’t. This is one of only a handful of must-plays in the Nintendo Switch library.

4 / 5.0 - Death Squared
Jul 19, 2017

Play with friends and watch the chaos ensue, or drop in and out of the game for some solo fun – either way you will find a fun, charming game that is very addictive and has that “one more go” effect that makes it hard to put down!

If you had told me a year ago that Nintendo would have made motion controls fashionable again with the Switch, I would have laughed.

3.8 / 5.0 - Bulb Boy
Jul 12, 2017

As enjoyable as Bulb Boy’s adventure may be, it is important to know that it is not a very long game.

4 / 5 - Mr. Shifty
Jun 20, 2017
