    Yakuza 6: The Song of Life
    Despite the few shortcomings, Yakuza 6 is a worthy successor for the franchise and an absolutely fantastic experience that will keep most enthralled from the beginning to the end, with a whole lot of extremely welcome detours due to the wealth of side stories and additional content.

    The Council - Episode 1: The Mad Ones
    If you can get past the slow start and some of the glaring technical problems of The Mad Ones, then you will find the most innovative episodic adventure game to come from a studio other than Telltale.

    The 25th Ward: The Silver Case
    The 25th Ward: The Silver Case takes chances and pushes the boundaries of storytelling and character development.

    Q.U.B.E. 2
    A great game. The story is gripping and enticing, and for people that don’t want it, it’s not forced down your throat. While improvements could be made to the controls and framerate, I had a blast with Q.U.B.E. 2 and I hope that Toxic Games decides to add more to the game in the months to come.

    Blasters of the Universe
    Blasters of the Universe is a diamond in the rough that is worth owning.

    YUMENIKKI -DREAM DIARY-
    I feel like I want to recommend the game to peers if only to have more people to talk about the story with and hear their interpretations of the events that transpired.

    Fear Effect Sedna
    Fear Effect Sedna is saved by a great story and awesome puzzle design.

    Muv-Luv Alternative
    Muv-Luv alternative is the perfect crowning for an emotional rollercoaster that will shake you up harder than the cockpit of a TSF at full running speed.

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance
    While the developers did squeeze as much potential as their studio could out of this concept, to sometimes remarkable results, Kingdom Come: Deliverance may have been a tad too bit ambitious for them on a technical level.

    Metal Gear Survive
    The worst part of Metal Gear Survive is its opening hours.
    • 79 Metascore

    Subsurface Circular
    Subsurface Circular is the brunch of gaming fare on Nintendo Switch — abbreviated, filling, and definitely worth the price.

    Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet
    Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet is the best SAO game that I’ve played since Re: Hollow Fragment.

    Where the Water Tastes Like Wine
    As a game devoted to the art of storytelling itself, Where the Water Tastes Like Wine shines with its powerful writing, exceptional voice-acting, and its visual and aural elements that bring players back into the time of tall tales and endless stretches of road to explore.

    Bridge Constructor Portal
    Simply put Bridge Constructor Portal is a great puzzle game. It’s fair but challenging, it includes a ton of levels, and best of all it feels like a part of the world of Aperture Science, while at the same time feeling like it’s own separate entry in the franchise.

    Gravel
    While Gravel looks good and plays well, it suffers from never deciding whether it wants to be a simulation game or and off-road arcadey racer.

    Fe
    Fe may be occasionally rough around the edges and gameplay derivative, but failure to look beyond that is missing the forest for the trees.

    Mulaka
    If you can get past the somewhat janky visuals and combat, you will find a decent action-adventure game that does an excellent job exposing new people to an intriguing culture and mythology.

    The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia
    The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia manages to disappoint in just about every category.

    Bayonetta + Bayonetta 2
    The Bayonetta games remain near-perfect examples of pure, unfiltered action and spectacle.

    Past Cure
    Perhaps my biggest issue with Past Cure above everything else I have mentioned is that it feels so uninspired. I’m hard-pressed to believe that Phantom 8 Studio found anything in Past Cure to be what I would consider “fun” because there’s just none to be had.

    Dandara
    Dandara is more than the average Metroidvania and is a game worth your time.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Secret of Mana
    Secret of Mana is the same adventure that I remember, and I couldn’t have asked for more.

    Sprint Vector
    A prime example of high-risk, high-reward, Survios’s Sprint Vector is a game every VR owner should certainly consider.

    The Fall Part 2: Unbound
    The sequel does exemplify some of the gameplay flaws of its predecessor but tells a fantastic sci-fi tale and builds a world that I never imagined it would.

    Dynasty Warriors 9
    Dynasty Warriors 9 does a very good job of making you feel part of a larger war that is happening all around you.

    Crossing Souls
    The video game equivalent of eating your favorite childhood junk food as an adult: not as good as you remember, but heartening.

    Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT
    Dissidia Final Fantasy NT’s soundtrack is fantastic.
    • 67 Metascore

    The Longest Five Minutes
    The Longest Five Minutes is almost the standard definition of an RPG, brought to life with one of the most interesting storytelling techniques for any Switch game.
    • 85 Metascore

    Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology
    The updates in Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology are phenomenal.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The Deer God
    The Deer God may be a great visual experience to unwind with, and it has a spiritual message to match. But when it comes down to the actual gameplay, the game just feels too stiff and uninteresting. Despite an almost enchanting presence, the actual mechanics of The Deer God will do as much as possible to push you away.
