Nindie Spotlight's Reviews

7 / 10.0 - Witcheye
Aug 27, 2020

There’s no doubt that Witcheye has a certain odd charm to it, with you literally controlling an eyeball that’s inclined to move in straight lines until it rebounds or it stopped or redirected by you directly...

6.9 / 10.0 - Hypnospace Outlaw
Aug 27, 2020

Games like this one are a challenge to review since they're so consumed with satisfying a central hook that they risk your enjoyment on whether it may appeal to any given gamer...

9 / 10.0 - West of Dead
Aug 26, 2020

While there are many roguelike shooters on the Switch (and quite a few of them are absolutely terrific) none of them plays quite like West of Dead...

One of the more overall neglected flavors on the Switch has been single-player experiences I would consider to be both appropriate for people of all ages as well as accessible...

7.2 / 10.0 - Glitch's Trip
Aug 26, 2020

While this may look like a cute and relatively straight-forward puzzle platformer Glitch's Trip wastes little time before smacking you around and letting you know it's here to kick your ass and chew bubble gum, and it's all out of bubble gum...

Free-to-play games are always a bit of a challenge to formally review, but luckily I'm not in the formal biz so I can just get on to breaking down the situation and leaving it at that...

7.5 / 10.0 - No Straight Roads
Aug 25, 2020

Brash, rebellious, and certainly a bit silly, the two members of the band Bunk Bed Junction you take control of in No Straight Roads, Mayday and Zuke, are die hard rock musicians determined to help it come back to prominence in a world dominated by EDM and the crushing control of NSR and its collective of superstars...

6.7 / 10.0 - Street Power Soccer
Aug 25, 2020

The NBA franchise is among my favorite in sports and I'm not alone in that opinion...

6.3 / 10.0 - Giraffe and Annika
Aug 25, 2020

There's nothing quite like a good exploration / adventure title for a few hours of enjoyment and discovery, and for the most part that's where Giraffe and Annika delivers...

This is one of those titles where I'm torn...

Boy are licensed games a tough one, especially when the attempt to bring solid production values to them is there with the right voice cast and a desire to honor the essence of the original material...

6.5 / 10.0 - One-Line Coloring
Aug 21, 2020

There's something great about game titles that pretty well sum up their experience clearly with their title...

While I've heard of the series I've never seen Peaky Blinders, and in general it seems like a curious choice for a license since I know maybe only one or two people familiar with it...

6.5 / 10.0 - Runestone Keeper
Aug 20, 2020

OK, so there are a ton of roguelikes on Switch these days and they're across a broad swath of game types, whether you're into shooters, survival, or role-playing...

6.4 / 10.0 - Fuzzball
Aug 20, 2020

One unfortunate side effect of checking out so many multiplayer indie titles on the console is that a large portion of them honestly begin to blend together in a variety of ways, perhaps visually distinguishable in some fashion but sharing enough DNA that they instantly feel all too familiar...

6.4 / 10.0 - Gleamlight

Gleamlight is one of those titles that visually sucks you in pretty easily...

8.5 / 10.0 - A Short Hike
Aug 18, 2020

We’ve truly been blessed over the past 6 months or so with a strong run of generally bite-sized exploratory adventures that focus far more on the wonder of nature and discovery than the normal more action-oriented fare typically out there...

9.5 / 10.0 - Spiritfarer
Aug 18, 2020

While many gamers enjoy blowing away enemies, racing through hairpin turns, or guiding their team to victory there’s a growing contingent of gamers who either prefer or enjoy more soothing experiences...
