Being a precisely “tailored foreSports" competitive tactical team action, this is more than just an alternative to Counter-Strike.

Tremendously playable time trials with an extensive editor and a continuous supply of new challenges.

A no-frills, but technically sound reissue of a solid game, that still doesn’t live up to its potential.

A very good collection with sensibly revised editions of the Anno franchises’ staples.

The mix of shooter and realtime strategy takes getting used to and eventually delivers tense battles – despite the AI issues and other flaws.

A playworthy history lesson about an undervalued shoot-em-up franchise. The collection is technically excellent, while the retro games keep up their fascination til today, mainly because of their imaginative bosses.

No-holds-barred collection of the first three franchise entries – unfortunately on Switch not as playable as their original versions.

Only slightly improved, but pleasantly relaxed old-school jump-and-run in 3D, that convincingly captures the essence and the humour of the cartoon show.

The Isle of Armor gives you a neat little exercise trip with Kubfu, but story and visuals still are a bit bland.

It is in fact an interesting collection with a focus on NES and technically sound. Due to age the software quality is not everybody’s cup of tea, though.

An entertaining conquering expedition somewhere between Defender of the Crown and King’s Bounty.

Lots of content, high framerates, a crisp port: Burnout Paradise still packs a punch and delivers tense arcade racing in an open world.

Surprisingly competent sidescrolling brawler with impressive strike feedback and top-notch controls – if you liked Streets of Rage 4, this one is definitely for you.

Quotation forthcoming.

The Last of Us Part 2 will look deep into your eyes - and you will be scared. Naughty Dog shows maturity, courage and sheer class. Absolutely brilliant!

It looks fantastic, it sounds great and it rewards thoughtful explorers – unfortunately the fighting system as well as the story can’t keep up with the technical achievements.

Enormous content, great fanservice and a lot of attention to detail: The Command & Conquer Remastered Collection is a prime example for what a remaster should offer.

A clumsy, sluggish and uninspired horror adventure.

In terms of storytelling and gameplay these shooters still are top-notch. The Switch versions suffer from slight control issues, though.

Moving house actually can be fun. As long as you don’t play solo, this delivers some decent party entertainment. It is not as sophisticated as Overcooked 2, but also much less prone to stress and frustration.

Yet again Utawarerumono remains a solid, but still very unspectacular mixture of visual novel and tactics roleplaying game.

A large chunk of the atmosphere as well as parts of the playability of this at its core still great rpg are destroyed by the abysmal technical conversion.

The comic source is staged nicely, but despite the audiovisual appeal, the storytelling doesn’t offer anything exciting and is enhanced by dreary shooter action.
