    Mr. Driller DrillLand is a welcome return for a character who hasn’t been in a new game since 2009. It’s filled with plenty of variety, and still holds true to its original gameplay — fans will be pleased, and it’s also worth a look for anyone who enjoys arcade-style action.

    Mr DRILLER: DrillLand is a cute, deceptively difficult puzzler for those looking for a quick challenge on their Switch, or fans of the series nostalgic for the unheralded GameCube classic. Just wait for a sale.

It seems a little bit boring compared to the pre-version of Mr. Driller. However, the sound effect and the main music playing behind the play was really awesome.
