8.8 / 10.0 - Will You Snail?
Mar 9, 2022

A worthy discussion that has come up in recent years has to do with accessibility and whether games that are inherently hard should have a way to play them at a more approachable degree of difficulty...

5.6 / 10.0 - Splash Cars
Mar 9, 2022

Even when they may not be racing titles I'm always down to check out a game involving cars, especially since in general they're under-represented on the Switch eShop...

7.5 / 10.0 - LIT: Bend the Light
Mar 5, 2022

One thing I do appreciate about quite a number of indie titles is that even if they aren't groundbreaking in their conception, it is clear they had a specific design and set of objectives for play in mind and then executed them all admirably...

More budget-friendly titles are almost always a challenge to know how to score against their more full-priced brethren...

This is a case where you have a game with a very cool sense of style, a compelling set of main characters who have some great interactions, and a sometimes pitch-black sense of humor… mixed with puzzle platforming that ranges from inspired to merely ordinary...

While I've seen quite a variety of takes on the classic adventure formula that has enjoyed a rejuvenation in this last generation with indie developers I've not seen something quite like Buck Bradley...

6.7 / 10.0 - Quest for Infamy
Mar 4, 2022

I definitely think this is one of those titles that will have pretty heavy-duty pendulum swings in the range of opinion from the people who play it...

9 / 10.0 - A Musical Story
Mar 3, 2022

I’ve truly enjoyed the diverse set of indie titles that have come to the Switch under the category of rhythm and music...

At this point in some regards it is tough to make a meaningful splash running with a humorous classic adventure title simply because there's a ton of competition out there on the Switch to compare with...

Have you ever been kept up at night pondering what it would be like to do incredible things in places filled with wonder and excitement?

While I’ll open by admitting that, in general, any game with the word Pinball in the title gets my attention, in the case of Zombie Rollerz there’s so much greatness here it had no need to tap into my silverball nostalgia to make me happy...

6.1 / 10.0 - Primordia
Mar 2, 2022

Breaking from the trend towards more strange and silly point-and-click styled adventures on the Switch, Primordia instead strikes a more serious tone with both its more brooding art and sci-fi environs...

5.8 / 10.0 - 35MM
Mar 2, 2022

There has always been something intriguing with exploring a post-Apocalyptic wasteland, whether it being the sense of isolation, how it can make you reflect on your own current life, or any number of other reasons...

8.5 / 10.0 - FAR: Changing Tides
Mar 1, 2022

Picking up roughly where the original FAR left off, and generally offering up a very similar (though longer and refined) experience, Changing Tides doesn’t reinvent the post-Apocalyptic wheel but it also didn’t need to...

8 / 10.0 - Conan Chop Chop
Mar 1, 2022

Having always been a fan of beat-em-ups, despite their tendency to get bogged down to some degree with repetition, I’ve been thrilled to see new ideas brought to the table...

7.5 / 10.0 - One Gun Guy
Feb 25, 2022

Ahh, the classic run and gun… it’s a timeless arcade-style staple that has been around forever...

6.1 / 10.0 - Moto Roader MC
Feb 25, 2022

While I was excited to see a retro racer in the vein of classics like Super Sprint and its ilk coming to Switch, I knew it could be tricky...

6.1 / 10.0 - Pudding Monsters

OK, so let's get down to the case of mobile game conversions on the Switch...

While movies and TV shows tend to make the idea of being a cop seem to be packed with danger and excitement, I have no doubt that the vast majority of time spent on the job is filled with some degree of tedium getting from Point A to Point B or filling out paperwork...
