I will long remember this beautifully designed an torn world, which offers so many facets and puzzles – despite the abrupt ending and some technical hiccups.

If you want to share your love for the genre with your little ones in an easily digestible form, this might be the perfect starting point.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is a perfectly prepared omakase menu: the individual ingredients are not revolutionary, but the presentation and game design make it something special. The story may be trivial, but when the gameplay is so satisfying and the visuals so impressive, I am happy to forgive the game for its narrative failure. Lizardcube proves once again that they understand what retro revivals are really about: not nostalgic romanticization or cheap exploitation of brand rights, but distilling the essence of the original and spicing it up with a modern polish.

This delightful upgrade more than justifies the extra cost of the Switch 2 Edition.

The remake of the DS game is not a bad game per se. Thanks to the satisfying progression system based on tasks assigned by the villagers, combined with the work on the farm, a successful loop is created. Unfortunately, I still get bored after a few hours because it lacks interesting characters and challenging gameplay in the form of dungeons.

In Herdling, the focus is on the experience rather than the gameplay. Navigating the herd through the enchanted landscape captivates with its visuals and sound rather than complex mechanics. The game offers little more than occasional obstacles to avoid and minimal switch puzzles.

"Midnight Murder Club" impresses with a simple but ingenious idea. In complete darkness, I sneak through a creepy mansion and try to murder my fellow players. The use of my flashlight – and my voice – must be carefully considered. The wildcard mode is particularly appealing, with its crazy gameplay modifications. Unfortunately, the game only offers one map and few exciting game modes. The number of active players is far from promising. Therefore, I only recommend Midnight Murder Club if you want to play with friends.

If you enjoy the quirky RPGs from developer Toby Fox or similar games such as “Earthbound,” then it's worth taking a short trip into the surreal world of “Off.”

The unusual gameplay foundation of Drag X Drive is compelling. It's fun to use the Joy-Con-2-mice to control the wheelchair as you race across the basketball court – even if I sometimes cramp up in the process. The exciting online matches against real drivers are the highlight of the game. Apart from that, the title offers little convincing arguments for a purchase. Uninspired side content, a lack of a progression system, and the dull visuals make the game seem soulless at times. I miss the magic that is typical of Nintendo. Even it's low price point, I cannot recommend the game – unless you really, REALLY want to try out the ingenious controls.

Bridge Constructor Studio pretty much met my expectations for a casual game. The game is great for bridging (pun intended) waiting times or boredom. It's a fun physics game that lets me choose whether to build efficiently or creatively. In difficult scenarios, I would like to see more help options.

With “Jamboree TV,” the already extensive “Mario Party Jamboree” is now also compatible with Nintendo’s new console. Although the camera and mouse are well integrated, some of the new game modes seem more like tech demos for the new Switch 2 features. The new team matches and some of the new mini-games will keep you entertained for a long time.

“EA Sports College Football 26” impressively demonstrates why college football is more than just sport: it is a festival of emotions, full of traditions, wild games and legendary stadiums. The presentation in particular conveys this perfectly: whether it's the White Out at Penn State, “Enter Sandman” by Metallica at the Virginia Tech Entrance or other college rituals. Moments like these make the game something special.

Lucas Arts couldn't have done it better. “The Drifter” is a gripping thriller that takes you on a wild rollercoaster ride that you shouldn't miss out on.

With “Donkey Kong Bananza”, the Switch 2 is getting its next must-play title after “Mario Kart World”. One month after its release, the console already has its first in-house single-player hit.

“Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster” is an excellent role-playing game that has unfortunately only received a minimal remaster treatment. The unique combat system, the engaging story and numerous quality-of-life optimizations set the JRPG apart from other representatives of the genre. If you are a role-playing game fan who has never played the 3DS original, I recommend the Switch 2 remake - provided you can get used to the underwhelming graphics and the unnecessarily repetitive ending.

"Ruffy and the Riverside" is a decent 3D platformer snack. However, it seems as if the developers have oriented themselves too much towards Nintendo. As a result, the game ultimately lacks the heart and uniqueness that its charming design deserves.

"Fast Fusion" is a fantastic racing game. It plays great, with the gameplay concentrating on a few, but superbly implemented elements. With the fusion mechanic, it also offers a fresh approach to adapting vehicles to your own driving style. For me, the only rather minor points of criticism are the limited choice of tracks and some graphical imperfections due to the upscaling. The high level of difficulty, especially at the beginning, might also put off newcomers.

I was on the verge of abandoning the review. After completing the short tutorial, I was faced with the task of teaching myself the game in the campaign through learning by doing. Important information is too hidden, too much micromanagement requires my attention, too many functions are simply not accessible to me. But it's worth persevering through the initial difficulties. After I've warmed up to the game a little, I realize how many possibilities are open to me.

“Mario Kart World” is a bold new beginning that feels fresh, and not just because of the doubling of the drivers. The open world turns the familiar cup structure upside down and also allows for a completely new game mode: the sensational Knockout Tour. It's the best thing that could have happened to “Mario Kart”. There is room for improvement in the unspectacular Free Roam mode, which makes the game world seem boring and empty. The Battle Mode and online multiplayer could also do with more meat on the bone. All in all, however, these are side notes in a well-done, colorful and chaotic overall package. If you own a Switch 2, you should definitely not miss out on this fun.

“Pro Cycling Manager 2025” remains what it has been for years: an in-depth management simulation for cycling nerds. Full of details, unwieldy, old-fashioned and fascinating at the same time.
