Among the genres with no lack of stellar representation on the Switch, Metroidvanias are pretty high on the list...

6.4 / 10.0 - Scrap
Jun 21, 2019

With a mix of endless runner, platforming, and a bit of puzzling in its gameplay SCRAP isn't too bad as a budget title to play anywhere but it's just nice...
