    Well... Another good game that may get tanked because of critic reviews. I really like this game. I like the bright and festive artstyle, I like the characters and I love the swinging/slinging mechanic. The combat is as you would expect from a 2D platformer focused on platforming. It reminds me of Shantae in that respect. Punch, kick, take out the bad guy. You have some extra moves you canWell... Another good game that may get tanked because of critic reviews. I really like this game. I like the bright and festive artstyle, I like the characters and I love the swinging/slinging mechanic. The combat is as you would expect from a 2D platformer focused on platforming. It reminds me of Shantae in that respect. Punch, kick, take out the bad guy. You have some extra moves you can acquire as you play. The mystery aspect of the game is unique—it makes you engage in the story apart from just watching a cut scene. It looks great on my Switch in portable mode and the levels are nice and bite sized. My only gripe, which I have become accustomed to, is that there is a small delay in moving the character when I move my left joycon stick. It may just be my joycon is old, I cannot say. But, it is not an issue, I simply got used to it. In short, this is a fun game and worth playing if you are into Shantae. Enjoy!… Expand

    Double Cross is a game that is based on some good ideas...but in the end, there might be too many of them to work properly, namely trying to mash too many different gameplay styles together. If the action and platforming sections are enjoyable and turned out right, the detective work moments and the combat sections are too sub-par and the game ends up getting harmed by too many dull moments.

    A solid if not exceptional offering that could use a bit of fine-tuning. [Issue #39 – May/June 2019, p. 22]

    Once you get into the groove of its logic, it has solid pacing, clever puzzles, and enough charm to keep players engaged.
