Lacking value-added features or even intuitive controls this feels like a stilted replacement for the in-person experience
A roguelike platformer that you can play with others locally or online that provides variety but perhaps lacks personality
A very ambitious retro-styled Metroidvania experience that works pretty well within the confines of classic expectations
Collections are always a tricky proposition, and this is no different with about a 50/50 of good and forgettable included
Mixing together pretty well-implemented traversal, slinging yourself around, a gripping story, and decent but repetitive combat
Sharing much in common with its predecessor, this challenging Metroidvania has style but can be tough to love
A slightly different take on your typical build and expand strategy title
Walking the fine line between honoring and completely ripping off the classic arcade shooter Space Harrier
As an adventure without a sense of adventure and a horror game without almost anything that’ll give you a scare, this struggles
Especially in genres that you rarely see deviations from the norm new ideas can be exciting, but not always
While it feels like there could be an interesting and different game here, poor direction paired with complexity sink it
If you’re really into hidden object variations, this will give you a fair amount of it in different themes
While there’s some novelty in the challenge of this wall-jumping actioner, it’s hard to sustain interest in it
While answering the question of whether you can play a “clicker” on the Switch with yes, it comes up short on “Why?”
Sporting a ridiculously fitting killer soundtrack, and incredibly satisfying controls, this is a must-have music title
While dinosaur fans may be inclined to be patient just to play a game in their midst, this is mostly a slog
A reasonable mix of story beats and various puzzles strung together by pretty horribly compressed video
While it has the look (mostly), the sound, and some of the character of the movies, the game is a buggy mess
It’s already getting to be that time of year, so a Metroidvania where you play as a reformed Scrooge is in order
Since it isn’t any sort of game, instead a nifty music-making app, it’s hard to “rate” among its peers
