Nindie Spotlight's Reviews

6 / 10.0 - Exorder
Oct 16, 2018

If you listen through the somewhat monotone voice acting you’ll be introduced to a story of power and betrayal, classic medieval royalty kind of stuff...

Starting with the positives the game absolutely looks great, has a ridiculous roster of players (including the likes of Michael Jordan), and features all sorts of preposterous on-court moves and dunks...

7 / 10.0 - Feral Fury
Oct 11, 2018

8 / 10.0 - Tricky Towers
Oct 11, 2018

Offering up a mix of iconic tetronimoes with a tower-building mechanic and some real concerns with gravity and your creation topping over this title can make for a lot of fun with friends...

The story starts out in a bit of a confusing manner, leaving you a bit disoriented as to what’s happening and why, but that seems to be by design...

As a party game your job will be to coordinate as you’re trying to get your aliens through a gauntlet of differently-colored monsters/gates that correspond to the colors of your team...

While it may be a port of an older title I can't say that I've played any other game that has nailed making stealthy play as fun for me as this one...

3 / 10.0 - Soulblight
Oct 4, 2018

Billed as an action roguelike the top-down graphics and generally uninspired and clunky combat get it off to a rocky start...

Oct 4, 2018

Without revealing too much, since the entire experience is woven around the bizarre narrative, you’ll follow Hamomoru as she explores the small village of Daiusu sometime in the 1920s...

For the most part if you’re familiar with the essence of a typical roguelike you’ll understand the deal here...

6 / 10.0 - Party Crashers
Oct 4, 2018

One great holdover from their first title is the visual aesthetic that borrows a bit from the likes of TRON, giving the game a somewhat futuristic look...

6.5 / 10.0 - Trouserheart

Pretty much everything in the game is easy to understand...

The major difference is the theming, this time working with anime characters from Kemono Friends...

Who knew that having played a number of horror-esque games on the Switch that the one that would be the most consistent and compelling to play would really be a casual title...

Oct 2, 2018

Starting with the building and management aspect of the game the biggest issue is that this isn’t any sort of sandbox situation, what you’re ultimately doing is just filling in some blanks as you progress with little room for flair or meaningful decisions beyond a minor focus in your stat modifiers...

7.5 / 10.0 - Rise & Shine
Sep 30, 2018

If you’re a shooting fan who is up to some crazy battles where you’ll need to use your brains as much as your reflexes Rise & Shine is a pretty good match. It won’t coddle you hardly at all, which will be either a positive or a negative depending on the type of gamer you are. I don’t recall ever having played a shooter that has had puzzle elements to it like this, so that does help it stand out from the crowd. Just keep in mind the caveats that come along for the ride when you decide whether to check it out.

6 / 10.0 - Dungeon Rushers
Sep 29, 2018

As exciting the title itself may sound, Dungeon Rushers lacks a fast pace or even a great deal of excitement. It’s a pretty safe experience with a fair art style, a decent sense of humor, and satisfying though generic combat. Probably best for playing lazily while doing something else it may have an audience but there are simply better options on the platform than this.

6 / 10.0 - Oh My Godheads
Sep 29, 2018

While Oh My Godheads is generally well-implemented, and the presentation is reasonably good, I also can’t say it made a very deep impression on myself or my family as we played through the modes and put it through its paces. While it had no glaring faults it also failed to generate much excitement or enthusiasm, though like any game it has its moments particularly early on when there were still some things we hadn’t seen yet. Once repetition set in it began to dull a bit. Just a very lukewarm takeaway in the end, it isn’t bad but it also didn’t thrill.
