    Eagle Flight
    The controls are tight, combat is simple, and Uplay still sucks, but this game isn't half bad. [Tested with Oculus Rift]

    Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher
    Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher won't set the world on fire with its monster breath, but fans of the source material will surely appreciate their time taming giants.

    Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey
    Atelier Firis: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Journey is a dull, flat story filled with insipid characters, delivered through thoroughly monotonous gameplay and dragged out over the course of an interminable amount of time. Steer clear of this trope-ridden snoozefest.

    Batman: The Telltale Series - Episode 3: New World Order
    Telltale’s Batman game continues with the most surprising episode yet. This is shaping up to be one hell of a series, despite technical issues.

    Lost Words: Beyond the Page
    Lost Words: Beyond the Page makes a strong case for the argument that video games can be considered art.

    Fire Emblem Warriors
    I’m impressed at how well Fire Emblem blends into the Warriors style.

    Anna’s Quest is a charming, whimsical and beautiful adventure, that is sure to please fans as well as entice newcomers to the world of adventure games.

    Kamiko
    Kamiko's quaint, pick-up-and-play nature makes it a fantastic fit on Nintendo's versatile console.

    Potion Permit
    Potion Permit is a flawed experience, but one with a unique concept and engaging gameplay loop that will please any farming-sim fan.

    Cat Quest
    Cat Quest is a mobile phone game turned Switch RPG that has an adorable facade, cat puns, and not much else.

    Sonic Colors: Ultimate
    Sonic Colors: Ultimate is a safe remaster of a cult classic which should please old players and newcomers alike, but isn’t going to redeem the iconic hedgehog’s troubled record.

    Jurassic World Evolution 2
    Jurassic World Evolution 2 covers all its bases in the newest iteration of the franchise. Aside from a few clunky issues when designing, every detail was considered and the game will appeal to a wide range of gamers, not just fans of Jurassic Park or Sim games.

    RPG Time: The Legend of Wright
    While its gameplay is somewhat linear and hard to nail down, RPG Time: The Legend of Wright is a masterpiece of presentation that celebrates the joys of a child’s imagination.

    Cities: Skylines II
    As far as world-building games go, Cities: Skylines II is second to none. The sheer volume of capability is staggering and the possibilities are endless for what you can create.

    Dead In Vinland
    Dead In Vinland tries to blend the best of multiple genres, but when combined those once worth-while features become a single idea that many times works, yet at others simply doesn’t.

    RetroMania Wrestling
    While not perfect and sorely lacking playable female characters, RetroMania Wrestling is an enjoyable, feature-packed love-letter to the late 80’s and early 90’s era of wrestling videogames and the WWF in general.

    MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries
    If you aren’t a BattleTech fan, mech fan or a gamer prepared to put in the additional study time required in order to learn how to master it, MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is a game that is either best left avoided (unless you’re taking it for a non-committal test drive on Xbox Game Pass).

    World Conqueror X
    If you’re looking for a more conventional strategy title to add to your Switch library, World Conqueror X is perfect for you. I think the game works best in handheld mode, as it’s not boasting the most visually appealing style.

    Disney Illusion Island Starring Mickey & Friends
    Disney Illusion Island is a must-play for classic Disney fans, and a very welcome multiplayer experience for PlayStation faithful.

    Master of Orion: Conquer the Stars
    What Master of Orion: Conquer the Stars really needs is just a set of tweaks, because the foundation is clearly there. If you're the type of person who loves spending time crafting the perfect plan and becoming immersed in a completely new world, it's worth diving into.

    Forts
    Forts is a fun 2-D RTS with some interesting new mechanics thrown in. It suffers from a few bugs and an unnecessary story, but is generally an entertaining experience.

    Life is Strange 2
    Life is Strange 2 on the Nintendo Switch holds true to its story-telling ability and deep dialogue choices while offering a good-enough option for those wanting to take the game on the go.

    Silent Hope
    Silent Hope is a solid action adventure title that is easy to recommend to fans of the Marvelous aesthetic, but may be a hard sell to newcomers.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Harvestella
    Harvestella is a fresh take on life-sims that wears many different hats well, but doesn’t always know when to wear them.

    Batman: The Telltale Series - Episode 4: Guardian of Gotham
    Telltale’s Batman tale continues to impress and overcome its minor technical glitches to deliver one hell of a dark knight mystery.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    One Piece Odyssey
    One Piece Odyssey is a slog to play, with horrendous pacing and progression issues destroying what little good can be found in the story and combat.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Ladykiller in a Bind
    Ladykiller in a Bind hits some unfortunate narrative snags and suffers from mixed characterization, but is ultimately a worthwhile, interesting game that takes the medium in interesting new directions.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS
    Super Mario Maker 3DS hits home and aside from a couple mild issues, it’s a dream come true for Nintendo nuts.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Storyteller
    Storyteller is a mediocre game that can GENEROUSLY be called a puzzle-solver, but isn’t nearly as creative as it thinks it is.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Mafia: The Old Country
    Mafia: The Old Country is the textbook definition of fine, which is a shame because the first game was such a stark contrast to anything that had come out at the time and had so many unique ideas. For this sequel to come out and do little else than push the boundaries of visual hardware is genuinely disappointing. Like I said, the story is definitely worth experiencing, but the game isn’t going to be remembered.
