Outside of the arcade gameplay, Creed Champions shines in its arcade mode. Presenting a string of fights in classic style, each fighter has their own tale to tell. Characters from the films will stick to the script for the most part, although villains will end up winning in the end if they're...
When Invincible Collection first loads up, it seems like there will be a lot of variety. Ten games come with the initial download with a bonus eleventh one (Arkanoid vs. Space Invaders) available as an add-on download. However, many of those ten games are only slight variations on the 1978 original. Including both...
Speaking of quests, Shadowverse: Champion's Battle has an entire world to explore outside of its card battler gameplay. Between scenes, players can roam around the school and the surrounding area in a good number of fully 3D environments. There are collectibles to grab, side characters to chat up, and a few...
Watch Dogs: Legion's procedurally generated group of hackers pulled off something unique at launch, but they didn't really make for compelling protagonists. It was fun to explore the different ability sets, but the missions across London never felt like they were anything more than endless side activities stripped out of another...
As far as the gameplay and story are concerned, nothing has changed about Maneater on Nintendo Switch. Aside from patches and bug fixes, this is the same experience that released last year on other platforms. While it's initially a blast to swim through the various regions of the bayou and chomp through...
The gameplay additions are simple but effective, adding to the classic strategies without getting in the way of what people love about Pac-Man. A veteran player would only need a few rounds to understand the new mechanics and get rolling, and it feels like their old skills would serve them well...
Players join the fight against the Trade Federation as Delta Squad leader RC-1138, otherwise known as Boss. The beginning of the game depicts the clone commando's first moments on Kamino before going into his training and his meetup with his brothers in arms. After an impressively tight opening, Republic Commando is light on cutscenes,...
As far as museum extras go, the NeoGeo Pocket Color Selection does include looks at each game's manual, box and cartridge in English and Japanese. Other than that, the spartan menu only offers the option to play the games. This is a letdown considering the historical context a bundle like this can provide. SNK and...
Part of this is thanks to Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville's impressive single-player modes. The game arrives on Switch fully formed after a year of DLC updates, so it features multiple full adventures that can be enjoyed solo or with friends via co-op. While these modes felt like a sideshow on other...
While the gameplay in Grindstone thrives despite mobile convention, there are a few things about the port over to Nintendo Switch that could have gone smoother. Jorj's health doesn't carry over between runs, so taking damage means heading all the way back to the inn at the bottom of the mountain....
Not only does Huntdown perfect what's been done in 2D shooters, it offers several new ways forward for the genre. A retro-minded tour-de-force that feels right at home in 2020.
Thanks to a moody atmosphere and precise mechanics, West of Dead perfectly wraps the tense feeling of cover shooting around a solid roguelike core.
