8 / 10.0 - HyperParasite
Apr 17, 2020

My time spent with HyperParasite was a lot of fun. Aside from the difficulty at times, it was enjoyable to take over host bodies. Being able to take over people and use different abilities kept the game feeling fresh. HyperParasite is definitely worth the asking price of $17.99.

6 / 10.0 - Snakeybus
Apr 17, 2020

While it's got problems, SnakeyBus remains a fun game with one of the more creative ideas I've seen lately.

8 / 10.0 - Bohemian Killing
Apr 17, 2020

Bohemian Killing isn't the prettiest game in the world, but it's certainly a fascinating experience. It delivers on both its concept as a good ol' fashioned whodunnit, as well as its unconventional approach to storytelling.

While there's definitely room for improvement and expansion, I can see kids liking this game quite a bit. There's plenty to unlock, and hearing that you did something better than Mama brings a smile. As someone new to the series, Cooking Mama: Cookstar felt reasonably fresh to me. But vets may find it more so resembles leftovers. Hopefully, the rights holder and publisher can work things out.

5 / 10.0 - Otherworldly
Apr 17, 2020

Otherworldly is just a little underwhelming and short for the price. I recommend waiting for a discount if this looks like a game you would be interested in.

8.5 / 10.0 - Save Koch
Apr 16, 2020

Save Koch is an absorbing story with well-written characters and a genuinely engaging mystery.

If you subscribe to Apple Arcade and can play Shinsekai Into the Depths on any of your Apple devices, there's little to be gained by moving it to the Switch. But if the Switch is your only access to this undersea wonderland, Shinsekai is an intriguing, engaging, and beautiful adventure worth exploring.

Swordbreaker The Game delivers on its promise of a choose-your-own-adventure story. If you like reading and enjoy a somewhat crazy adventure, this isn't a bad way to spend a few hours, especially if you're in self-isolation mode right now.

While Random Heroes may make a decent mobile game, the updated version—Random Heroes: Gold Edition—isn't really up to par, especially for the asking price of $4.99. It is an excellent example of why some games should stay on mobile devices.

7 / 10.0 - Roundguard
Apr 10, 2020

Roundguard is a unique twist on the RPG and puzzle genres. With smooth controls and fun gameplay, Roundguard has some great potential.

Arcade games are known for being to-the-point and energetic. Finding one that's both of those things, and fast-paced, is a treasure. There's definitely replayability in a title like Super Destronaut: Land Wars. Short as it might be overall, the game modes never get boring.

9 / 10.0 - Alder’s Blood
Apr 9, 2020

Alder's Blood is a wonderfully crafted game with an intoxicating story. Its missions are simple but your strategy can't be if you want to survive.

8 / 10.0 - La-Mulana
Apr 8, 2020

No, I didn't chuck my controller as I've grown up. However, I still say the game cheats. That aside, LA-MULANA has a ton of playability as you try to find hidden shops and solve the puzzles. It is not the best game on the Switch, but it is a lot of fun. It would be a shame to pass up this little hidden gem.

6 / 10.0 - La-Mulana 2
Apr 8, 2020

I still enjoyed this game for the way it offered some youthful nostalgia. It delivers a definite challenge. But LA-MULANA 2 is cut from the same cloth and does very little that's different from the first. While that doesn't make the game bad, it does make it frustrating.

7.5 / 10.0 - Exit the Gungeon
Apr 8, 2020

Exit the Gungeon is a refreshing next step for the franchise. The smaller scale comes with certain drawbacks, but it's nonetheless a worthwhile experience, even if it's not to the same standard as the original.

To do today: get up, brush teeth, follow strange dream about a deer and head off to the cursed castle to see what happens. Sounds like a plan, so what could possibly go wrong?  Well, we all know the answer to that question, don't we? In Operencia, you take off on a journey of exploration, adventure, and heroic deeds—not to mention monsters and mayhem. If you enjoy turn based RPGs, this one is worth checking out.

I think this game offers quite a bit of nostalgia. And even with all of its faults, I found ways to cheese the system or use the Force in fun ways to get through the missions. However, as fun as it was, I don't know that it's an accessible title for gamers who aren't fully versed on how games in 2003 played or are expecting a current-gen SW gaming experience.

7 / 10.0 - The Complex
Apr 6, 2020

The Complex is a cleverly made interactive movie with an intriguing sci fi plot that eerily parallels the real world.

I see great potential in Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories! I do think that there will be patches to fix the frame rate, and maybe even DLC chapters continuing the story.

5 / 10.0 - Ski Sniper
Apr 3, 2020

Ski Sniper is fun enough for some shooting practice with a funny premise, but it doesn't have a whole lot of meat to it.
