Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection lets people really appreciate Lan and MegaMan.EXE's story and savor these massive games at their own pace.
Dredge manages to be both a fantastic fishing game and a horrifying look at what it's like to be alone in the ocean.
Void Terrarium 2 offers a cute art style with fun rogue-like gameplay, relaxing side content, and a dark, touching story.
Process of Elimination is a decent murder mystery with a ton of interesting ideas that never quite get used to their full potential.
Melon Journey: Bittersweet Memories has a great aesthetic and can feel like a slice-of-life investigation of seedy situations, but it has a few pits.
Norn9: Var Commons attempts to do a lot and, while it is an enjoyable otome game and at its best on the Switch, some routes are more satisfying than others.
GrimGrimoire OnceMore is one of those rereleases that not only acts as a remaster, but includes meaningful quality of life adjustments that make the experience better.
Record of Agarest War could have been an interesting generational RPG, but the fanservice and bloated mechanics water down the experience. Switch version reviewed.
Atelier Ryza 3 is a game that makes good on its promises. We've spent years getting to know Ryza and her friends and learning more about their world. Now there's this pay-off that really feels fulfilling.
Capcom created a complete reimagining of Resident Evil 4 through this remake, which may leave some fans feeling lukewarm as it pivots further away from horror and straight into action.
ONI: Road to Be the Mightiest Oni is a mostly charming little adventure game that suffers from repetitive design.
Alice Gear Aegis CS is a solid, if simple, arena fighter with great mecha musume characters. But its thin storytelling doesn't endear players to a world that's largely been Japan-exclusive until now.
Bayonetta Origins is a wonderful game that shows how Cereza and Cheshire, and their friendship, grow through both gameplay and its story.
Paranormasight is a well-crafted mystery-horror that leans more into the mystery while keeping things light with a snappy script.
Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is an unnerving, cohesive game filled with murderous ghosts you'll both fear and pity.
If you've kept up with the events in Crossbell, Erebonia, and Liberl over the last decade, then you'll find Trails to Azure will be a joy to play.
Little Witch Nobeta combines the fun of a shooter with the difficulty of a soulslike with an anime sense of style in a natural way.
The Smile Alchemist is one of those unexpected KEMCO games, as it brings Asobox's pleasant alchemy life simulator to a wider audience.
Redemption Reapers tries to evoke a sense of desperate, skin-of-your-teeth battle, but succeeds more in adding tension to its combat than its narrative.
Odencat's Meg's Monster is a brief, pleasant adventure that takes rather obvious cues from Undertale.
