Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 are a couple of the best 3D platformers ever and this brand new Switch release is the optimal way to experience them so whether you're a long-time fan or have never played them before, they'll surely send your fun meter to outer space.
It's great that Puzzle Quest: Immortal Edition is here to liven up the classic indie with slick visuals and oodles of accumulated content.
It may not look like a super-tough shoot 'em up but Platypus Reclayed definitely is and it's so much fun that you'll want to master every stage.
Earthion is a modern shoot 'em up throwback that does an exceptional job of embodying what made the 16-bit era so special for the genre.
With its unconventional approach, tight arcade shooting gameplay, and charming anime presentation, I absolutely love Mamorukun ReCurse!
If you get invited to LEGO Party! then be sure to go because with its incredibly entertaining mini-games and commentators that'll make you crack up as you explore its jam-packed super-silly boards, this is one funky fresh shindig that you won't soon forget.
If you have a big heart, love cuteness, and want to be immersed in a bubbly game world teeming with upstanding welcoming characters then Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian is an RPG that you have to play even if it can be a bit simple gameplay-wise.
PAC-MAN WORLD 2 Re-PAC is one of the best 3D platformer remakes and a superb example of the genre from a simpler time. There's just so much Pac'd in here that you can spend hours upon hours and still discover new goodies and fun challenges.
FINAL FANTASY TACTICS - The Ivalice Chronicles takes an already incredible SRPG and makes it even better with plenty of modern niceties and full voice acting. Hey, you can finally learn how to pronounce the characters' names and that's worth it alone.
Agatha Christie - Death on the Nile is a funky fresh twist on the classic novel that presents 2 very different but intertwining storylines and a variety of elaborate puzzles. If you're a fan of detective games at all then you can't miss this one.
SILENT HILL f is one of the best survival horror games out there with its constant surprises, pitch-perfect game worlds, and exceptional blend of combat and puzzles; sometimes, both at the exact same time.
Cladun X3 is a super-customisable action RPG that boasts plenty of small dungeons and intuitive combat. The need to grind and micromanage everything can be a bit much but the lively spirit of it all is still sure to make you smile as you play.
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds features some of the best track variety in the genre as well as a visceral driving experience that has you seamlessly take to the skies, water, and road. If you love kart racers, it's an absolute must-play.
Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree is a roguelike where the more you play it, the better it gets. With so much variety in its combat thanks to an awesome cast of characters and flashy unlockable spells, those who love to experiment will be downright hooked.
If you love a hearty challenge as much as I do and have a fondness for arcade-style shooters, you'll absolutely adore ZOE Begone!
HYKE:Northern Light(s) is a super-fun action RPG that does a great job of providing a variety of gameplay via its unique character abilities. The maze-like dungeons are challenging and rewarding for sure but I wish there was more to the game world elsewhere.
If you enjoy nonsensical silliness and making a mess then Henry Halfhead is a wonderfully curious little game that you need to play.
I had a great time with Tiny Witch and for such a cute game, it certainly doesn't mess around so if you love optimising efficiency, check it out.
LEGO Voyagers is an unforgettably lovely co-op adventure that's filled with heart, rewarding puzzles, and light platforming. It can be frustrating and a bit tedious at times but overall, there's so much variety and fun to be had that I still highly recommend playing it.
I can't believe how much better Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter looks, sounds, and plays compared to the original. It may not be as epic as some of the more recent games but what's here is certainly charming and satisfying enough for any RPG fan to easily fall in love with it.
