Even if Tempest Dawning Connections is a great Switch otome game that pays extra attention to its love interests and supporting characters.
Super Mario Bros Wonder certainly dares to be different with its aesthetically pleasing environments and unconventional Wonder Effects in stages.
World of Horror draws you in from the beginning with its creepy, grotesque vibes, 1-bit graphics, the Junji Ito-inspired art direction, the point-and-click gameplay, and story that pays homage to the horror genre.
A nice art style, solid design and creative mechanics tie together for a game that's a great time alone or in co-op.
I admittedly went postal a bit the first ten minutes when I was hopelessly lost. Nintendo Switch version reviewed.
Crymachina offers a cybernetic futuristic world with excellent action-based combat. Though it loses itself in the weeds with its plot, it delivers nonstop fun.
Baten Kaitos I & II HD Remaster brings back two fantastic cult classics with improved visuals, and some limited QoL features.
Front Mission 2 Remake delivers on both the gameplay and writing fronts. While it has some pacing issues in its story, the gameplay remains consistently fun and engaging.
Combining tactical depth and roguelite progression, Sigil of the Magi is a solid title that makes simplicity a strength.
Paleo Pines is a cute farming simulation game in which players care for friendly dinosaurs, but it is unoptimized and poorly paced.
A Tiny Sticker Tale is a simple puzzle game that lets you relax and play around with characters like stickers to accomplish your goals.
Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai offers frenetic and surprisingly action RPG gameplay that is weighed down by mobile-style progression and a pointless story format.
Assassin's Creed Mirage digs deep to return to its roots, but loses what made it so great in the process with messy climbing and an unnecessary story.
Detective Pikachu Returns is a charming mystery adventure. The long-awaited sequel to Tim Goodman's saga was worth the wait.
Mega Man X Dive Offline offers fun bite-sized Mega Man action that you can tackle with a near-endless wealth of unlockable characters.
If you like games with unfathomable narratives and journeys through alien worlds, I highly recommend Cocoon.
While Silent Hope does rely in a very specific sort of routine that may (or may not) click with a player, I had a lot more fun with it than I expected. It was really satisfying to go on excursions into the Abyss. So much so that I got caught up in making sure my Caster and Farmer felt “right” to use, rather than focused on progression and heading deeper for a while. That said, it is a very repetitive game that relies on a certain kind of feedback loop, and those who don’t get invested probably won’t learn all of the game’s secrets.
As a genre-expanding release rather than its predecessor's sole standard-bearer, Wargroove 2 hits a bit differently.
NIS America said Disgaea 7 would be built with Disgaea 6 feedback in mind, and the result is a much stronger, more traditional entry.
Mineko's Night Market has a great story, fantastic vibes, and fun concept, but the balancing and Switch performance issues are hassle.
