When I first saw this title and a hint of the gameplay I was excited by the potential promise of a return of some good old combat sports...
I've pretty much always had a love/hate relationship with the survival genre, though it may not be what you think...
Billing itself as a medieval Grand Theft Auto (this is GTA2, mind you, don't get too excited), Rustler is obviously trying to grab itself some attention, but that unfortunately also puts some expectations on it to try to meet...
As an old school arcade fan I'll just plain admit I'm a sucker for any game that remotely resembles the classic Marble Madness...
I’ve tended to be pretty clear in my distaste for pure visual novels and their lack of interactivity, and when I started this title I had some concerns it was headed in that direction with quite a bit of (often clever) dialogue to get it rolling...
It’s always a bit tricky to release both an original game and its sequel at the same time, but in the case of Spelunky 2 and its OG brutally-tough roguelike predecessor it works out reasonably well and either (or, even better, both) are worthy of a shot if you’re down for a challenge...
One of the last OG indie titles to finally come to Switch, Spelunky promptly gave me a nice slap in the face to remind me of just how quickly I could utterly fail in a game...
The thing that will obviously grab you with this title is its unique (and quite lovely) art style...
Not so much a game as an interactive toy, Townscaper is just a different sort of experience that people will likely either adore or hate...
This is one of those titles that's very difficult to explain in a way that establishes a decent value proposition for purchasing it but here goes: Only lasting a couple of hours, the "action" is you methodically using a metal detector on the ground of an old farm in search of something...
Whenever you run into a free-to-play title it's always a bit of a challenge to rake them over the coals when people could literally try them out and make their own decision for free...
While I don't want to show any undue bias against games unfairly, I'll admit that I've slowly become skeptical of games that seem to lean on the "cute factor" as a primary selling point...
While I'd like to be able to claim myself and my family are not victims of local multiplayer fatigue on Switch, it's tough to deny it's a thing...
Sometimes there are just games that start out hitting you the wrong way the moment you begin playing and just can't seem to recover...
The creepy Neighbor is apparently back, yet again, to give off his weird vibes and entice people to plunk down some money to join in his latest endeavor... in this case an asymmetric multiplayer experience with a group of kids trying to best him...
Who doesn't love a good mystery? Arrive at the crime scene, look for clues and evidence, interrogate witnesses, and then use your powers of deduction in order to solve the crime...
Ah, the struggle to properly evaluate games that aren't really made for you personally as the target audience...
This is one of those titles that, when you see a well-cut trailer for it, jumps out as having some real potential...
This aquatically-based platformer, which you can play either solo or co-op, is a bit of an odd bird...
There’s absolutely no denying that fans of twin-stick roguelike shooters, like myself, have an embarrassment of riches on the system...
