Interactive drama game As Dusk Falls has a strong start, but it's quickly bogged down by pacing issues and an uninteresting second half.
Loopmancer is an action-packed, atmospheric detective mystery that works best in the heat of combat, but its roguelike elements could use some work.
Although the story doesn't deliver anything fresh, it serves the game well and provides a platform for the game's excellent design and well-crafted horror. Go into MADiSON without any pretense of a groundbreaking story to find a terrifying journey through the minds of pained and neglected killers. Overall, MADiSON is a great first game by a new developer and is sure to provide plenty of scares.
Rabbids: Party of Legends surpasses Mario Party in some ways, but it has a few major flaws keeping it from reaching its full potential.
Outriders: Worldslayer offers more content and fast action fighting, which made the base game fun to play but struggles to find its story compelling.
The Jackbox Party Starter features three of the best Jackbox Party Pack mini-games, but one would be better off buying a full game instead.
Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course is a short yet sweet send-off for the beloved platformer, featuring plenty of depth and a rigorous challenge.
Mario Strikers: Battle League's core gameplay is a blast, especially with friends, but the game suffers from a severe lack of content.
Redout 2 is a visual treat that makes no attempt to tune the experience for casual players.
TMNT: Shredder's Revenge sticks close to its classic beat 'em up roots but still manages to be a wildly entertaining tribute to the Ninja Turtles.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 - The Sith Lords translates well to the Switch, but it unfortunately suffers from severe technical problems.
Supermassive's The Quarry is one of the best games from the developer since Until Dawn, but it still has some recurring issues from previous titles.
Sniper Elite 5's modernized version of a classic formula caters to every type of player, for better and for worse.
Soundfall is a treat for musically inclined gamers, but its weak mechanics hold it back.
The final challenge will be a fun throwback for Flight Simulator X fans, as players are tasked with landing their aircraft on a moving carrier ship's deck, just as Top Gun's Navy pilots do.
Evil Dead: The Game is one of the better asymmetric multiplayer horror games out there, but it's severely lacking content in its current state.
Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong brings players back to the World of Darkness to investigate an attack on the Camarilla.
The Centennial Case aims to make poignant statements about life and death but succumbs to its poor medium choice and confusing logic.
It's possible that Nintendo will improve Nintendo Switch Sports with future updates, but that remains to be seen. It's known that Nintendo Switch Sports is adding golf in a future update, but otherwise Nintendo's post-launch plans for the game remain a mystery. There's a lot of work to be done to make Nintendo Switch Sports even half as fun as its predecessors, and as it stands now, it's a game that Switch owners can safely skip.
Despite some minor technical flaws, This War of Mine remains a poignant and, unfortunately, relevant game to this day. It is no surprise that it was the first video game in history to be added to a school curriculum. Its depiction of the harsh reality of war for civilians makes it one of the most unique games to come out of the previous decade.
