Even though all 13 included games can be played via the Nintendo Switch Online subscription, Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition provides a whole new way to play all these games.
Nobody Wants to Die is a masterpiece about being able to solve crimes in an original way in a picturesque futuristic New York City, with great voice acting and a story that will drag you right in.
EA Sports College Football 25 is the sports game we needed back to fill that little void in the sporting world. We have had yearly releases of MADDEN, but it’s not the same as College Football. If you want to get amongst some great football, then this title is designed for you with a more college touch.
Dungeons of Hinterberg is the perfect mix of adventure and dungeon crawling, and its bright and vibrant colours had me hooked.
Fast-paced, fun and funky, Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble captures the arcade-like charm of the originals and turns it up a few notches.
I’m in shock. ‘Downward’ the enhanced edition had no business being as addictive as it was. Just a typical first-person, parkour adventure title, developed by Caracal Games, this game was more than meets the eye as it thrusts you into a world turned upside down…wards.
For long-term Smurf fans and younger audiences, The Smurfs – Village Party might tick several boxes on your party must-haves. With a nostalgic feel and loving tribute to The Smurfs, there’s plenty to entertain. Still, it all depends on whether you’re keen to attend despite the party’s little problems.
I have had a blast during my time in The Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road and I always find the community to be welcoming and eager to help new players. The amount of content and lore you can uncover keeps me hooked and wanting to sink more hours into the experience. A massive plus is that no matter the player’s level and experience, all of the story chapters can be played at any level, so it is always an exciting experience for new and returning players to the series.
The character designs are nicely detailed, even with the slightly pixelated look, and as players wreak havoc onscreen, the animations are smooth and action-packed. The way Shou is animated makes him look like he was taken straight from a fighting game, and he would perfectly fit into a classic Marvel vs Capcom or Guilty Gear game.
The most fun part is serving customers and preparing their orders and could have done without anything else. The game is riddled with glitches, preparing food comes with a lot of inconvenience, and the graphics are severely out of date. Food Truck Simulator serves up a lot of potential but falls short on the order.
If you are chasing a title that has the perfect mixture of gameplay that submerges you into the life of a pathologist and spine-chilling moments that will keep you on your toes from start to finish then Autospy Simulator will be the perfect game for you to cut some time into.
Fans of epic Kung Fu, fantasy, and drama films will find plenty to enjoy in Xuan-Yuan Sword 7 which includes plenty of story, action, and more. Players outside of Asia now have the opportunity to experience this 31-year-old hidden gem and hopefully, the next instalment in the series isn’t too far away.
I’ll never not love jumping into the great world of Mario and the adventures he finds himself on, and having played the original once before I loved being able to jump back into the adventure and play it and remember. I will be sinking more hours into this title as it’s super relaxing and you can play it from the comfort of the couch, or even in bed before you head to sleep.
The developers did not hold back with this title and they went all in and created an absolute F1 masterpiece, from how the cars handle, down to how the drivers celebrate, you will get immersed into the racing life and it’s not one I’m upset about being immersed into.
Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game has all the makings of a great asymmetrical multiplayer game, and it could very well replace most of the current fan favourites. Even if you’re only playing with a small group of friends, the random rotation of who plays on what team and the variety of options to escape will help keep it feeling fresh. The different classes, both Klowns and Humans, offer new challenges and hurdles, and no escape attempt will ever feel the same.
The mechanics are pretty simple to master. You can walk around the many environments you are presented with and can access a shop menu using the R3 stick.
An isometric third-person helps with the retro-detailed effect, offering a top-down perspective that allows you to appreciate the intricacies of the environment. The classical graphic style not only captures the essence of the era but also adds a layer of charm and authenticity to the eerie abandoned theme park.
The soundtrack is rooted in traditional Japanese instrumentation, including taiko drums and shakuhachi flute, like the one Jin carries with him. From serene compositions during exploration, emotional pieces and more intense battle music, which in some encounters has Mongolian influence when fighting the big bad.
The graphics are a beautiful cartoony hand-drawn art. It reminded me of what a child would do with a combination of charcoals and coloured pencils. It was expertly presented with a dinginess and brightness that complimented the tone of the game, and while the cutscenes between gameplay are done in the same style, they are presented in a comic book style.
Shutting a door or window not only leads to the goal, but also shoots out projectiles going left and right, which will temporarily stun enemies if they connect and players can kick them off the stage by simply running into them, but they can respawn. Each boss battle is different from the other, offering more variety and adding to the challenge.
