8.0 Ship of Fools

 

Just when you thought you’ve seen and done everything a rogue like game could offer….along comes Ship of Fools. Ship of Fools is a seafaring rogue like co-op game where you play the Fools, the only creatures fool enough to brave the sea. The Great Lighthouse that once protected the Archipelago is broken and a storm of malice and corruption is coming. Together, you and your ship mate will jump aboard ...

 

8.0 Return to Monkey Island

 

Return to Monkey Island is the follow up to 1991’s Monkey Island 2, that’s right 31 years later we got the follow up to the cliffhanger ending of Monkey Island 2. For those of us old enough to remember and appreciate it. Legendary point and click game creator Ron Gilbert (Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island, Thimbleweed Park) had always wanted to continue to work on the series he created however when ...

 

7.5 The Battle of Polytopia (Switch)

 

I remember a while back I picked up The Battle of Polytopia on PC and the reason I got it is because I have been a huge fan of Real-time Strategy (RTS) Games but also love the civilization series with its turn-based concept. When I saw The Battle of Polytopia Developed and published by Midjiwan AB coming to Nintendo Switch, I had to check it out. Here are my thoughts on what I believe is a great game that I…

 

10 Persona 5 Royal

 

Persona 5 Royal is now on the Nintendo Switch. In this review, we tell you all about the game and how it runs on the Switch!

 

9.0 Bayonetta 3

 

Bayonetta has never been a franchise I have paid much attention to. Until the recent controversary around voice actor salaries and who was or wasn't included in the project, I took a deeper look at the world of Bayonetta. What I found was a franchise beloved by many, but perhaps still a niche experience when compared to other Nintendo published franchises. Still, this one from PlatinumGames is promising to be ...

 

9.0 Mario and Rabbids: Sparks of Hope...

 

Mario and Rabbids: Sparks of Hope is the newest game in this epic franchise from Ubisoft and Nintendo. Is it a great game? Let's find out!

 

Gunslingers & Zombies

 

What happens when you mix up the wild west and zombies? Red Dead Undead Nightmare! Well, no, umm what happens when you mix up the wild west, zombies and XCOM? Gunslingers & Zombies. A game formally available on Steam has now made its way to the Nintendo Switch, but is it worth your time? Or should it have been left in the graveyard? Gunslingers & Zombies is an action-adventure strategy game hilariously ...

 

Hidden Indie Gem ENDLING – ...

 

Endling: Extinction is Forever is a survival game that takes you on an emotional journey that also gives us a glimpse of what the future can become. The game was developed by Herobeat Studios, it has you play as a mother Fox whose purpose is to protect her cubs and survive in the cruel world where humans are trying to take away your home.

9.0 Tinykin

 

So, Nintendo may have finally announced and given me a timeframe for Pikmin 4 after many, MANY long years. But in the meantime, something to help quench that thirst came along my way called Tinykin. Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a fan of the quirky games and some of my favorites of all time include Pikmin and Chibi-Robo (from the GameCube Era). Tinykin is heavily inspired by both of these games, and I ...

 

8.0 Splatoon 3

 

Splatoon 3 is easily one of Nintendo's most anticipated games of this year, and definitely the biggest this fall / holiday season. The primarily online paint shooter has become wildly popular through the first two releases, and Nintendo is looking to cash in on that success again here. Many would argue the jump from Splatoon to Splatoon 2 was pretty minor, so how do things shape up as we move towards the launch ...

 

7.5 Aquadine

 

So, first off let me say, coming into this review I knew absolutely nothing about Aquadine. I never heard from it, wasn’t on my radar or anything. Let’s check out the official description: After his mother was hospitalized for an unknown disease, Robin Liyun works as a part-time gondolier to make ends meet, but under an alias named Ciel. As he finishes giving tours one night, a mysterious voice lures ...

 

7.0 MADiSON

 

What would you do if you woke up locked in a dark room, with your hands covered in blood? Play as Luca, and endure the brute torture of MADiSON, a demon that has forced him to continue a gory ritual started decades ago, making him commit abominable acts. Will you be able to finish this sinister ceremony? MADiSON is a psychological horror game in similar vein to something like Outlast or what we got a glimpse of ...

 

9.0 Xenoblade Chronicles 3

 

Recently, we talked about Xenoblade Chronicles 3 gameplay, graphics, and story in our review-in-progress articles. Now its time for our full review of the game. Is Xenoblade Chronicles 3 worth checking out? Story And Gameplay The world of Aionios is torn apart by a war between two factions. Each faction is a slave to a clock that must be feed by deaths and each of the people only have a limited time on the ...

 

9.0 Live A Live

 

Square Enix’s latest role-playing game, Live A Live, is seven stories set within seven different eras, with seven different characters. The key word is different because that’s what Live A Live is. It’s a very unique experience. Is that experience good though? Is Live A Live worth checking out? Here is our review for Live A Live for the Nintendo Switch!

 

10 Cuphead Nintendo Switch

 

Cuphead has to be one of the most successful indie games to grace our presence in the past decade. It combines a classic platformer feel with a wacky and unique cartoon aesthetic, topped with very challenging and rewarding gameplay. If you have not yet found the time to experience Cuphead in all of its glory do not fret! Cuphead and it's DLC, 'The Delicious Last Course', are available on the most mobile and ...

 

8.0 My Universe – Green Adventu...

 

The latest entry in the My Universe games – best known I think for being well-crafted family friendly games that are easy enough to play for nongamers and young kids – have moved on to what I think is their greatest one to date with Green Adventure – Farmers Friends. Despite the complicated naming convention, the idea is pretty simple. The old tried and true story of you getting a run-down farm ...

 

7.5 Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition

 

Even the Blade Runner version of 2019 looks like a dream compared to 2022. No pandemic, no crazy politics – just murder robots and really bad pollution. Oh, and new coke. So visiting it in video game format for the first time in 20 years felt like it was going to be a real treat. And in many ways it was. This enhanced edition of the original PC point and click game was a labour of love for the developers…

 

9.5 Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes...

 

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is the latest game in the Fire Emblem and “Nintendo” Warriors series. The games have, so far, combined Nintendo and the Warriors gameplay successfully. So how is Three Hopes? Is it a good game? Will Fire Emblem fans like it? Here is our review of Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes for the Nintendo Switch! Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is set in the same world as Fire Emblem: ...

 

9.5 TMNT Shredder’s Revenge

 

Growing up I was a massive Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fan, and yes I mean the old show. I’m part of that generation, where we would get personal pan pizzas from Pizza Hut and even bought the musical album they put out as well as the tour video…I had it all, tons of figures, bed sheets, and video games. The Ninja Turtle video games have always held a special place in my heart, especially the arcade ...

 

6.5 Mario Strikers Battle League

 

Mario Strikers Battle League brings soccer with Mario and friends to the Nintendo Switch. We did a preview of the game and now here is our review of Mario Strikers. Is this another Nintendo sports hit?

 

7.0 Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Sag...

 

The Lego games have been feeling a tad tired as of late. More than once I’ve jumped into a game wishing they would rebuild the franchise from scratch. You know – brick by brick. Enter Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. It certainly looks different enough on the surface, but is it as transformational as long-time fans might have hoped? The simple answer is no. It’s decent fun – especially ...

 

7.5 Nintendo Switch Sports

 

Nintendo Switch Sports hopes to capture the same audience that was once hooked on Wii Sports. Does it succeed? Here's our review!

 

9.0 Kirby and the Forgotten Land

8.5 Pokémon Legends: Arceus

 

In our review-in-progress of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, we talked about what made the game different than previous games in the franchise. And now in our review we look at the game as a whole and pass final judgement on it. Is Pokémon Legends: Arceus the best game in the franchise so far? Pokémon: Legends Arceus is set in a different period than previous games in the franchise. It’s in the distant past and ...

 

5.5 Aery – Dreamscape

 

Fly through people’s deepest desires as a bird. And, no, Aery – Dreamscape isn’t an adult game. Because it turns out everybody’s deepest desires are things like “be a pirate”, “visit the moon” or “get out in nature”. Not a single level begins with the phrase “hey, you know that girl from Friends?” Maybe that would have been a better game – its not for me to judge – but it would have been a ...

 

7.0 Big Brain Academy: Brain Vs. Brai...

 

Are you ready to train your brain? Nintendo has brought a brand-new brain training game to the Switch: Big Brain Academy: Brain Vs. Brain! Is it any good? Here's our review! School might be out soon, but Nintendo is keeping the learning going throughout the holidays!

 

7.0 Beyond a Steel Sky

 

27 years later we get a sequel to Beneath a Steel Sky…The original came out in the hay day of point and click adventure games like Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, and Broken Sword. As an “old” man, these types of games have always had a soft spot in my heart. I do recall playing the original but it’s been a LONG time since I’ve thought about this game. Luckily you aren’t missing much in picking up the ...

 

9.0 New to the Series: Pokémon Brill...

 

Was Pokémon Brilliant Diamond a good place to start? How difficult was the game? Will it hook you on the series? Here is our review of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond!
