    Built around a concept introduced in Hotel Mario, a much-maligned CD-i title, Goliath Depot offers a rather grand remodeling. The result is an arcade-style experience that feels familiar yet has enough novelties to stand on its own.

    Goliath Depot is an arcade-style throwback that's as entertaining as it is retro so grab a chum and get closing those doors already.

    If you’ve enjoyed the recent string of retro arcade throwbacks that have been brought to the Switch by Flynns Arcade, you’ll want to look into Goliath Depot. It has a nice presentation, the gameplay mechanics are unusual and easy to grasp, and it has a lot of replay value packed into it. Chasing your way up a leaderboard is what keeps arcade-style games going, and Goliath Depot nails that aspect quite well.

    Goliath Depot effectively pays tribute to early ’80s arcade gameplay, and would’ve fit right in next to the machines that inspired it. Although aimed at classic gamers, modern features such as leaderboards, level randomizers, and a speedrun mode should help it appeal to a wider audience.
