    If you want to scratch that retro Doom FPS itch, Prodeus could be just the game to do it for you. The Switch version is inferior to other platforms hence even more retro, but the true magic lies within its fast-paced gameplay and lots of enemies to cut through with a flashy arsenal. If you like games like these, give Prodeus a chance.

    A tribute to the early days of FPS. It's a must for anyone who was a fan of DOOM, Duke Nukem, and others in the 90s.

The graphics are top notch, giving a gloriously gritty look that mimics the oldschool sprite based shooters of yesteryear, and at the same time giving a modern sheen to things that really fits nicely with the aesthetic. And then there's that Andrew Hulshult soundtrack, WHOA BABY! In my opinion it's the retro FPS of the year on Switch. Full Review »
