    Nuclear Blaze’s platforming, flame dowsing, and sense of dread are all blistering hot. Even repeated attempts to overcome a thorny section will do little to cool your enthusiasm. What might be an issue is the game’s two-hour length. This port augments the action with a tougher New Game+ component, but it can feel like tossing a single piece of kindling on a once-roaring inferno.

    Nuclear Blaze arrives on Switch with extra content and provides a Metroidvania-like experience that gets immersion right. While the game world nearly makes up for what the story lacks, and the gameplay offers up the odd moment of frustration, this one easily finds itself in the better half of Switch titles of the genre.
