When it comes to games packing in some weirdness on the Switch I'm typically a big fan...
Aside from some AA and AAA conversions, the first-person shooting genre hasn't seen a tremendous amount of representation on the Switch to date...
If you say the words "roguelike shooter" you can assume my ears will perk up and I'm down to party...
As a huge fan of shooters, the twin-stick variety in particular, XenoRaptor on paper is absolutely up my alley...
Of course, if you’re a bit younger it all may feel a bit dated or some people may prefer not to turn the clock back quite so far...
Dungeon-crawling RPGs are very much just their own thing, and they're not for everyone, but for a budget title Drawngeon takes a fair stab at providing a decent experience...
Mixing together gameplay from a few distinct action puzzle styles Funny Bunny Adventures manages to be unique on Switch but that that doesn't make for a ringing endorsement either...
Pinball is absolutely a cornerstone of retro gaming so I'm always excited to see what people come up with to celebrate it...
With adventure game series like this it is somewhat difficult to think of them or review them as stand-alones when, in order to really appreciate them, they're meant to be played as a series...
If you're a big fan of the bygone heyday of the point and click adventure games the Deponia trilogy is well worth checking out...

At this point in not only the Switch's lifespan, let alone taking into consideration the whole of modern gaming, a game like Mushroom Quest begs the question "Do we really need another box pushing puzzle game?" There's a nice retro pixel art vibe, mechanically what little there is to the game works well, and the puzzles offer up a reasonable enough challenge...
Strategy games are woefully under-represented on the Switch but perhaps the bigger issue is the lack of high-quality entries for the genre...
When you're trying to make an impression in an eShop absolutely swimming with games of all types and degrees of quality, doing something new and/or different is always a plus...
While its novel style has some charm the bland and uninspired play leave it a bit flat
Yet another collection of pretty diverse top-tier tables awaits
Even as consistently as indie titles have managed to surprise me, there are times when I’m almost taken aback by a title out of left field...
As a huge fan of twin-stick roguelike shooters, and with plenty of excellent ones already on the Switch, my interest is always piqued by a new contender in this space...
