Despite the game starting to feel a little shallow over ten years later, Castle Crashers is still an absolute riot when played with friends. I can’t recommend it as a solo experience, meaning its appeal on a hybrid console like the Switch may be a little limited. I can however...
The novelty of being a goose is cute, and it wore off when it should of. Both the artwork and music are lovely. The art style is heavily minimal, with some very nice and expressive animations. For me, these felt like the reward for completing a task or solving how...
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, despite its share of technical mishaps, remains one of the most wonderful entries in the series. The charm, gameplay and world building are wonderful to behold and deserve to be seen. The selection of smart fixes makes the game less of a grind and...
There is certainly a lot to love about Puzzle Quest’s remastered return on Switch. The RPG-meets-puzzle battle system is just as deep and memorable, but almost everything else feels like something straight out of 2007. On the whole, that’s fine, but I can’t help but be dismayed by the bland...
While you can easily compare Sayonara Wild Hearts to other stylish rhythm games - Rhythm Heaven, Thumper, and Rez came to my mind while playing - the precise spectacle makes it stand out from similar works. This is a full-length interactive music video that exudes joy. It’s the absurdity and...
Overall, The Sinking City is a fairly okay detective game, with an intriguing supernatural mystery taking place in what is obviously a lovingly-crafted environment. It does some interesting things such as using bullets for currency, causing the player to have to weigh the options of fleeing from or killing a...
Risk of Rain 2
Since Risk of Rain 2 is explicitly in Early Access on another platform I won’t be giving a definitive verdict quite yet; I’ll likely revisit it in the future once the Early Access moniker has been removed. The content that’s in the game right now shows a lot of promise,...
With its incredible artstyle and striking world design, Blasphemous could have been a fine adventure with a dark and twisted tone. The aesthetic is incredible, and the map design of Cvstodia is solid and engaging. Unfortunately the game is too bogged down with a high difficulty level that is more...
I think that at the end of the day, there is a good game here, but it’s running poorly and could be better experienced somewhere else. This is a huge disappointment because as a player with the Switch as my primary console, I would have liked to experience Remothered: Tormented...
Overall, LEGO Jurassic World is a great love letter both to fans of the Jurassic Park franchise and fans of LEGO games. The strange addition of quick-time events to this entry was annoying, but looking past that, there is still a lot of content to enjoy. It would have been...
Spyro Reignited Trilogy feels like a game straight out of the late ‘90s because, well, in most ways it is. This could be seen as a good thing, as this type of 3D collectathon has been overall absent from gaming until very recently. In addition, those who grew up with...
There are things I really like about Daemon X Machina. Building my Arsenal was fun, but eventually that basically came to a stop. The setting and cast is creative and enjoyable enough, but the story delivery strays into anime tropes and babbling between the cast. I respect the work that...
