    Goblin Sword likely won’t blow players away, but it is a fun game that provides plenty of replayability, especially for completionists. The game is available on mobile devices, but it feels like a game that was made for the Switch. Plus, for the price - Goblin Sword is actually on sale for $2.99 on the Nintendo eShop at the time of this writing - you really can’t go wrong with the well-executed platforming adventure.

    Goblin Sword's developers are clearly talented so I look forward to their next game where they'll hopefully iron out a lot of wrinkles.

    Goblin Sword offers an ideal commute experience with its short levels and simplistic gameplay, but that also means anyone looking for a deep or diverse experience will sadly be disappointed. This is an arcade-style action-platformer that just falls a bit short of satisfying.

This game does what it says it does, and it’s really a great game with quite a lot packed in it! It’s not too difficult, but don’t go in thinking it is easy, because it ain’t, maybe the first few levels, it gets harder the further you go into it!

    Definitely recommend!    … Full Review »

    An easy game to pick up, and a lot of levels, cool bosses and collectibles to find.

Simply put, this is one of the most underrated games I have played ever and one of my favorit Switch games. Adorable 16-bit visuals, solid gameplay, many and varied weapons and relics that grant unique powers to play with. Impressive variety in enemy- and boss designs and unusually clever level design and flow. I see this questionable line on all the mixed reviews: "This game is not for everyone" - so mention for me, please, a single game that is? Simply put: Do not miss out on Goblin Sword on Switch.… Full Review »
