10 / 10.0 - Oxenfree
Oct 5, 2017

An evolution of narrative design, along with being one of the most captivating and original stories ever told in media.

10 / 10.0 - Celeste
Jan 29, 2018

One of the best platformers you'll ever play. The story is also equally superb.

There aren't enough points on the scale to accurately score Smash Ultimate; it’s almost a disservice to score a game like this. There’s nothing like it on the market, nothing that dominates the genre so completely. This game is as near to perfect as any game will ever be. There may never be another entry in the Super Smash Bros. franchise like this, so savor it as long as you can.

10 / 10.0 - GRIS
Jul 13, 2019

GRIS has to be one of my favorite games in the last few years and I honestly can’t find any flaws in this perfectly-made game. I look forward to Nomada Studio's next release, whenever that may be.

When it comes down to it, The Last of Us Part II is the most near-perfect game I’ve played. If you’ve played the original, this is a must-play game on every level. If you haven’t, go back and play the first game.

9.5 / 10.0 - Super Meat Boy
Jan 22, 2018

So is Super Meat Boy worth another go? Even if you bought and played the game halfway through its lifespan, I would say that it’s a definite “yes.” For newcomers who enjoy pain- I mean, who enjoy a challenge, I’m excited for you. You’re going to have a fantastic time yelling at your Switch while loving every minute of it.

9.5 / 10.0 - Super Mario Odyssey
Nov 1, 2017

An incredibly fun new adventure with wonderful environments, fun challenges, and plenty to collect. Super Mario Odyssey is an absolute system seller that should be in any Switch owner's library.

The ultimate example of how to immediately remake a game and one of the best stories I've seen so far in Pokémon.

9 / 10.0 - Abzu
Dec 3, 2018

ABZU is an amazing, self-contained experience with really minimal performance issues on Nintendo Switch. There’s not really anything to dislike about this game, which is a worse way of saying that ABZU is a phenomenal experience that I would recommend to anyone. It doesn’t matter what platform you play it on, just play it.

9 / 10.0 - A Hat in Time
Oct 20, 2017

Cute-as-heck callback to the platformers of old. If you don't like it, get lost.

A pleasantly challenging precision platformer with a gorgeous art style and fascinating mythology.

Kingdom Hearts III a beautiful game with a heart like few other games. It does have a harder entry point than most games, but catching up is worth it. Even newcomers can jump in. Just don’t expect the game to hold your hand narratively. Kingdom Hearts III is not a perfect conclusion to the saga, but it’s pretty damn close.

If you're a longtime fan of Wolfenstein or just looking for a way to get rid of some pent up aggression towards the Nazi Party, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is an excellent addition to your collection.

Assassins Creed Origins is the best title in the series to date. With an intriguing story, an impressive open world and the best combat in the series, Origins is a game I highly recommend for hours of fun.

8.5 / 10.0 - Hand of Fate 2
Nov 9, 2017

With all the new additions I think this is a great sequel to a great game allowing new people and already experienced players to have a wonderful time. I definitely would recommend Hands of Fate II.

A moving story of miniature apocalypses as a larger one blazes in the background.

8.5 / 10.0 - A Way Out
Apr 2, 2018

A Way Out is one of the best co-op experiences out there. A great storyline and various possibilities make for a great and intriguing experience.

8.5 / 10.0 - SoulCalibur VI
Nov 2, 2018

A graciously-executed fighting game, with enough fairly unique content to satisfy you for tens of hours.

While it might not be up to the same kookiness of previous titles from SWERY, The MISSING has other reasons to make you stay, leaving you shook and heart-broken with a stop-start narrative, and an gameplay gimmick that doesn't overstay its welcome.

8.5 / 10.0 - Pikuniku
Jan 30, 2019

Pikuniku is worth your money and time. It may not be a revolutionary work of high art, but it’s definitely enjoyable. I’d recommend buying it for the Nintendo Switch so you can play it in pieces, but the PC version (which I played) is perfectly acceptable. This is a game I’m going to tell my friends about and get them to buy.
