Dragon Quest 11 come out on the Nintendo Switch on Friday. I’ve been playing the game a lot and now I want to talk about the game’s most special addition: its 2D mode! In 2D mode, Dragon Quest 11 S looks like a game from the SNES era, though with a bit more detail than those 16-bit games. Its amazing how Square Enix completely recreated this world in retro style and how fantastic it looks. The battle system is in…

Previously, I told you some about Dragon Quest Builders 2 in general and then spotlighted the game’s online sharing too. This time, I want to talk a little bit about the game’s story mode. The first Dragon Quest Builders wasn’t really focused on its story. It was much more focused on building. There was even an extra mode, Create Mode, that was all for building stuff. Meanwhile, the second game focuses on the story right from the start and introduces…

I’ve been playing Dragon Quest Builders 2 a lot, as I talked about yesterday. And while I’m enjoying the game a bunch, I do have one major question: how in the world do people create some of the stuff I’ve seen in this game?! I have no answers but I do want to talk about some of the things I’ve seen in Builders 2’s online sharing! Dragon Quest Builders 2 has an online sharing component. The first game let you…

On Friday, we received a review copy of Dragon Quest Builders 2 for the Playstation 4 from Square Enix. I’ve been playing the game all weekend. And now I want share my thoughts about the game in this preview! I played the first Dragon Quest Builders on the Nintendo Switch and liked it. I wasn’t sure what to expect for its sequel. Would it be better? Would it be more of the same? And since I was going to review…

What do you get when you combine Zelda and Earthbound? If you said Rainbite’s Reverie, then you’re right. But if you also said Anodyne from publisher Noooo you’d be right too. While Anodyne has a slightly darker look to it then Earthbound or Zelda, it shares much in common with both. Anodyne is coming to the Nintendo Switch this Thursday. I received a review copy of it and wanted to give you a glimpse into this unique game’s world. Anodyne…

Daggerhood is the latest game that Ratalaika Games are bringing to the Switch. Its an action/platformer and its pretty hard. I have been playing it for review and I have some thoughts on it. Daggerhood is an insanely hard game. In Daggerhood, you play a thief who is out to steal all of the king’s gold. He only has a dagger to get him through all of the insane traps and enemies that he’ll find on his journey. Fortunately, the…

Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story was a game on the DS originally. I never played it. And now Mario + Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story comes to the 3DS and with an extra game, Bowser Jr’s Journey, included. I received a review copy of the game yesterday. Here are my first impressions of Mario + Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story + Bowser Jr’s Journey! I have never played Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story before. When I saw it on the…

Marenian Tavern Story: Patty and the Hungry God came out yesterday for the Nintendo Switch. My review of this game isn’t ready yet, but I wanted to provide our readers with my thoughts so far on the game. Is this an rpg/sim you’ll want to play? Marenian Tavern Story is part Little Dragon’s Café and part turn-based rpg. In this game, you run a small bar that you are trying to turn into a success. In order to do that,…

Thursday. 12:46 pm. I knock on Detective Gallo’s door. I’m in a hurry. I hear a voice say “Come in already.” I quickly enter his office and close the door. ” Who are you?” a voice says. I turn around and see the detective. “I…I…” I’m not sure what to say. He stares at me hard and then pulls out his gun. ” Who. Are. You? ” he says again. “I’m a reviewer! I have a preview of your game.”…

Earlier this week, I wrote about Warioware Gold for the 3DS in my column for this site. I said I couldn’t wait to play this game. Well, somebody must have heard me because Nintendo released a demo for the game yesterday. I’ve gotten to play that demo some and now I can give you my impressions of it. Is the Warioware Gold demo fun? Mash it, twist it, touch it, and take turns doing all of them. If this sounds…
