While by no means revolutionizing the classic Match-3 style, there’s nothing wrong with a variation on a theme
If you can accept the inherently floppy nature of everything, and enjoy that it keeps things silly and simple, it has some appeal
With an old-school and generally unique feel, given all the bouncing, there’s some fun and challenge to be had here
Has a reasonable variety of puzzles, and a light narrative, but doesn’t distinguish itself from being quite generic
A satisfying budget puzzler that’s visually polished and constantly changes things up, while crucially properly introducing new mechanics
While more hardened gamers will likely want to steer clear this mix of pet sim elements and mini games is a more casual treat
With a relatively simple mix of slider puzzles and a bit of Rubik’s Cube, this casual puzzler could appeal to the right crowd… maybe
Despite its attempts to entertain with what it describes as its “satirical” humor and compelling action, it delivers neither
There’s no question this feels convincingly like an 8-bit-era release, for better or for worse depending on tastes
While I appreciate its old-school FPS style and community-built levels, its gameplay stumbles more than it struts
If you’re seeking Wii-era waggle flashbacks without much to really do, you can waste your money on this
Mixing together exploration and puzzle-solving, while never really cranking up the challenge, The Pathless has a unique feel on Switch
With a reasonably-low price point, and a nice variety of musical tracks, this is a humble rhythm winner if you’re ready to be challenged
With an almost mobile-esque light feel, and plenty of ridiculousness, this could have appeal for somewhat mindless fun
I’m a fan of the fact that this is a game that does things its own way and mixes together genres, but the main event falls flat
A fresh take on the old-school first-person shooter infused with color, comedy, and generally smart gameplay
If you don’t mind its extreme simplicity and inherent repetition, this budget action game can be fun in bursts
Why this pretty shallow and generic beat-em-up is selling for over $10 on the eShop I have no idea…
Despite its action mostly being on the middling side, the game’s artistic style and story make it a compelling experience
A simplified interface makes this budget point-and-click sort of adventure sort of work better and worse at the same time
