Jenny LeClue is a game I’ve been interested in for awhile now. I really like its art style and its Nancy Drew-like story. And I have to admit I have been hoping that the game would be announced for a Nintendo platform. The game is coming to the Nintendo Switch! Check out the trailer for the game below. Jenny LeClue -Detectivu will be coming to the Nintendo Switch. No release date has been announced yet. The game’s art style is…

Yesterday, Nintendo had a Treehouse Live and showed off several games. The game that stood out the most to me was Yoshi’s Crafted World! Check out the Yoshi’s Crafted World Treehouse Live gameplay video below and then please come back for my thoughts on the footage. Yoshi’s Crafted World looks fantastic! I think the graphics look even better than Yoshi’s Woolly World, which is saying a lot because that game looked great. This new Yoshi game has a wonderful look…

I don’t have a Playstation 4. This doesn’t mean that I don’t care about the system however. I keep my eye on games for this system and for the Xbox One. One of the games that I think sounds the most interesting for the Playstation 4 is Dreams. Media Molecule, the creator of LittleBigPlanet, is creating a brand new game where you can create your own levels. Well, its more than that even. Let me tell you more about Dreams…

Jack and Jill went up a hill…and ended up in a video game. Indie game Jack N’ Jill DX came to the Nintendo Switch eshop recently. I received a review code for the game and checked it out. Is Jack N’Jill DX any good? Jack N’ Jill DX is a runner. You do not control the movement of your character. At the beginning of the level, you press A and the character runs. After that, all you can do is…

Last week, we had a Nintendo Direct. There were a lot of announcements out of that Direct, however my favorites were Animal Crossing Switch and all those Final Fantasy games! I already talked about those though. For this More Thoughts, I want to focus on the other cool announcements from last weeks Direct. There was just so much! Here’s what else I liked. I don’t like Pokemon. I think everybody thats read this column or that follows me on twitter…

Last night, a demo of Mega Man 11 was released on the Nintendo Switch. I downloaded the demo, beat the demo, and now I have some impressions of it! I suck at Mega Man games. I have never been good at games in this series. Though I do like Mega Man, he just isn’t my favorite character (he is cooler than Sonic!). And so you can imagine when I heard there was a Mega Man 11 demo on the Nintendo…

Human: Fall Flat, a physics based puzzle platformer, received a free online multiplayer update recently. The update is for the Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch version of the game. The PC version received this update last year. Check out a video for the update below. I have never played Human: Fall Flat, but it looks like a really neat game. And now 8-player multiplayer has been added to the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, and Xbox One versions of…

Nintendo UK had an Indie Highlight video today. You can check it out below and then please come back for my thoughts on this Indie Direct. The Nintendo Indie highlight video was not announced. It was a complete surprise. Also surprising was that three of the games shown in the video: Bad North, Prison Architect, and Morphies Law came out today! I thought the video was pretty impressive overall. Nintendo Switch is getting a ton more Indie games for the…

Penny dies. Game Over. Well, ok, not exactly. Penny dies, becomes a ghost, runs into Death and then becomes Death. Wait, what?! Welcome to the delightfully odd world of Flipping Death, which I got to play early thanks to Zoink! Games. These are the same people who brought us Stick It To the Man. My review of Flipping Death isn’t ready yet but I thought today, the day of the game’s release on the Switch, would be an excellent day…

Thanks to a freak accident, a chicken suddenly doesn’t lay eggs anymore…he lays bombs! Bomb Chicken for the Nintendo Switch is an odd game. I wrote about it in a preview. And now my review is done and we can finally find out: which came first the bomb or the chicken? Wait. No. We’ll find out whether or not I recommend this game! There isn’t much of a story to Bomb Chicken but that shouldn’t be a surprise: this game…
