All in all, Doughlings is a nice little classic game to play. It’s a good throwback to older games while still being fun for gamers today.

Sushi Striker is a decent puzzle game with an odd and somewhat charming theme. It’s not for everyone, but if you’re looking for something quick and easy to play on the move, this will definitely fit the bill.

Aug 13, 2018

City of the Shroud offers an ‘OK’ RPG experience wrapped around a fun and interesting combat system core.

Nier is an affecting game that entertains you but also makes you question your beliefs about who is the hero and the villain.

Overcooked 2 is everything I wanted it to be, and a few issues notwithstanding, I’m very glad I came back for seconds.

6.1 / 10.0 - Sleep Tight
Jul 26, 2018

All this might seem like I’m pretty down on Sleep Tight. But in the end, it feels like a game that’s hot out of the gate, but falls short after the first lap. It’s all style, but gets weighed down by some technical issues and a lack of variety.

Its simple yet stylish art and popping soundtrack still work so well. This is definitely a collection worth owning.

Jul 16, 2018

I love Tempest. I love Tempest 2000. I even love TxK on the PS Vita. And if I’m wearing my Tempest fan hat and badge, I love Tempest 4000.

8.2 / 10.0 - Octopath Traveler
Jul 11, 2018

Octopath Traveler presents itself as a simplistic title thanks to the 16-bit HD visuals, but it's anything but. It's a deep, complex RPG, with multiple intertwining systems and a huge world to explore.

For a re-release Captain Toad Treasure Tracker is a pretty good pick. The short nature of the levels and touch controls make it perfect for Switch, especially when playing on the go.

9 / 10.0 - Paladins
Jul 10, 2018

Paladins is a lot of fun, unique in gameplay, if not in premise, and well worth a look in if you enjoy team based shooters with a lot of variety.

Frontier Developments has done an amazing job with Jurassic World Evolution. Fans of the film series or those who enjoy sim management games will find plenty to keep them occupied. Jurassic World Evolution is highly recommended.

5.5 / 10.0 - 20XX
Jul 9, 2018

Ultimately a great soundtrack and immaculate controls aren’t enough to stop 20XX feeling like an overtly repetitive cycle of missed opportunities.

That Wolfenstein II The New Colossus was even released for a Nintendo console is amazing enough. However, the fact that the port of Wolfenstein II The New Colossus on Switch is good is even better.

7 / 10.0 - Onrush
Jul 9, 2018

In ONRUSH you'll be rewarded with hectic, fact-paced action, ridiculous tracks and a suitably eye-popping set of visuals.

There are some wonderful aspects to the game that I would wholeheartedly recommend. However, I'd really only recommend the game to JRPG fans, primarily for it's dated approach to story-telling and world design.
