While a relatively simple grind in the end, there’s something oddly engaging about it, destroying so much in the name of simply saving a cat
While the concept is odd enough to help prop up the experience to a degree, at some point its middling mechanics and play struggle to justify its price tag
A delightfully odd, creepy, twisted, and yet clever adventure full of laughs and unexpected surprises
A pleasant enough little sandbox, but mileage will definitely vary depending on what you’re looking for
Joins a number of other decent but pretty ordinary beat-em-ups in the eShop that are fun for a run or two but not really memorable either
A mystery game that has a distinctive look and feel, some creepy beats, and plenty of people to investigate
Weirdly enough, while the game has some cool music, and it delivers simple-but-challenging action, I wouldn’t really consider it a rhythm game either
A very murky, muddled, and dull walking simulator that comes up short on scares
While it has some unusual visual quirks at times, for cat lovers or people who just enjoy a more unusual RPG experience this is simply different
A great follow-up to Mission Impawsible that continues to show how to properly take a license geared at kids and turn it into a solidly-accessible game experience
While it packs in some new ideas, this collection feels like it has lost a step in terms of its normal level of entertainment
If you’re just looking for some cheap scares and pretty well nothing making much sense, this may work for you
An interesting mix of old-school adventure and pretty slick modern horror video production
In an eShop full of farm sims of varying quality, but almost always playing in the cozy lane, Village in the Shade dares to go in a different direction
Sadly enough, though as a racer it plays well enough in principle, a lack of sufficient content and its bare bones nature make it little more than a tech demo, rather than a game
While its presentation and general style are approachable and family-friendly, a lack of any significant depth will make it disappointing to hockey fans looking for their fix
While it has a pretty unique puzzle style, and some stories to tell, incomplete instructions to get you started and its somewhat cumbersome nature keep it from being better
One of the premiere first-person shooter series is back on a Nintendo system, and pretty well no matter what flavor you prefer you should find a satisfying match
While it has decent bones, and an element of fun, its very clear mobile roots, some bugs, and a fair amount of grinding make it tough to enjoy in much more than quick bursts
While an undeniably pleasant and chill fishing experience, it’s also slow to progress and lacking in overall substance
