There's plenty to like about Marble It Up! in its current form, but if you're not a diehard fan of the genre, it may be worth waiting for a sale due to how short Marble It Up! feels. It's absolutely a well-crafted experience that looks, sounds, and plays great. It's just a little frustrating to see another indie game on the Switch eShop that feels a little light on content, especially with its price point.

If you need to scratch that survivor game itch, 60 Parsecs will definitely do you good, but it's not going to blow any minds.
In the smaller moments, Kingmaker captures the tabletop experience better than any single player game I've ever played.
Astro Bot Robot Rescue is more than an extension of flat screen platforming, it is the next evolutionary step that all family members will enjoy.
8-Bit's prime selling point may also be a vice.
For those who love action-arena games like Gift of Parthax, this game will likely delight, as the pixelated characters are nostalgic as hell and the combat, when leveled properly, can be that right mix of challenging but fun. Unfortunately, for those more casual about the genre, Gift of Parthax doesn't offer enough to offset painfully unbalanced seasons, the grinding that results, and a leveling system that's as mystical as its characters.
Nintendo, your Mario Party fans deserve better than Super Mario Party. Take a page out of the Smash Bros book and give fans a real treat next time.
Get out your guitar and strum along to this one, because Wandersong brings a fun, meaningful story fully grounded in a colorful world that's worth saving.
Sometimes the cringe is what sells it, like a train wreck you can't keep your eyes off of. That cringe factor isn't an accident, which leaves you wondering if it's all just a big old trolling of those who have far too much to say about everything. If you're not so serious about everything all the time, though, it's a fun diversion.
Filled with humor, cuddly visuals and some surprising depth, The Escapists: Complete Edition is a big game in a tiny little package. You might feel like a real prisoner at times trying to survive its grueling difficulty, but its charm and reasonable price help to make this stint in the big-house a surprisingly fun experience.
Mega Man 11 brings the series to new heights.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey, for better or worse, feels like a palette swap of Origins.

Overall, Life is Strange 2 was not only better than I expected, but I believe it would have been a hit even if no one had ever heard of the first game.
Make no mistake about it, for fans of racing games, Forza Horizon 4 is a must-own.

Overall, Cities: Skylines' technical performance is not completely top-shelf, but it gets the job done. I rarely noticed choppy frame-rates, and bearing in mind the console we're working with, I'd say a massive feat like porting a complex city-builder deserves some credit.
