Beyond the graphical environments and gameplay, Pure Chess is a compelling title, offering plenty of options, as well as tutorials for beginner players. However, its asynchronous online mode harms the experience of playing with an opponent at a distance, which hampers the game’s appeal to those interested in online chess matches.- FNintendo

Making a strength of its simplicity, it presents the player a challenging campaign, well designed levels with a perfectly appropriate difficulty level and a nicely presented and enjoyable content. While it may feel too simple at some moments, Shift Quantum is a very welcome addition to the Nintendo Switch library.- FNintendo

Yo-Kai Watch 3 is easily the best game in the Level-5 trilogy and one which makes it worthy to hold on to the Nintendo 3DS. While the game's main plot is hardly its most interesting asset, its top-notch technical execution, the amount of new content and the urge to explore its new locations all contribute to make this the finest game of the trilogy and open the curiosity for what the series still has to bring.- FNintendo

The first Inazuma Eleven to be fully produced for the 3DS had a tremendous opportunity to bring forth a significant evolution to the series. Nevertheless, other than the laudable technical progress, its new features are lukewarm at best, some of them even bothersome. This remains a solid, quality title but Inazuma Eleven GO: Light/Dark has missed its champion shot.- FNintendo

Trials Rising is a very fun effort that is indissociable from the high difficulty level of the Trials series. The level editor is a major plus which makes the game's lifespan stretch for longer but at the same time, this release on the Nintendo Switch is riddled with technical problems that should be fixed as soon as possible through updates.- FNintendo

Thief of Thieves for the Nintendo Switch is the closest thing to a comic book adventure in a playable format, with the additional advantage of the console's handheld convenience. Its loading times may feel too burdensome but other than that, Thief of Thieves gets a lot of things right and the game's immersive environment and soundtrack, as well as the fun and engaging missions will make this a fun and involving experience for everyone.- FNintendo

Indivisible brings together elements of a Metroidvania type of game with those of an RPG and the result is a resounding success. Despite its poorly paced plot, the game's marvelous audiovisual environment, its exploration and combat system and the overall humorous tone of the entire game make this a work that deserves players to put their energy into it, now that it was released in a proper way.- FNintendo

Turok's remaster for the Nintendo Switch brings one of the first Nintendo 64 classics to the contemporary age and for a game that is over twenty years old, the work done here is competent and well executed and it improves on some key aspects that needed to be updated. While this does not intend to reinvent the game, this remaster can both appeal to fans of the original game and to those curious about the early days of console first-person shooters.- FNintendo

BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL! is the fourth game of the BoxBoy! series and this iteration brings a very welcome cooperative mode, as well as new additions that contribute towards making puzzle solving more enjoyable. Character customization is also a new element that contributes to make this a remarkable and fun puzzle game and which will fit perfectly with those who enjoy using their heads.- FNintendo

Infinite Minigolf lives up to its name and allows for a potentially endless experience, presenting as well a sharp ball physics and control system. It does create some difficulties for people who are less used to play videogames and the lack of motion controls is something that requires an explanation.- FNintendo

Heroki is not the most innovative game ever made but that does not stand on its way from being a fun and entertaining 2D platform experience. While it still keeps many of the traits of a mobile game, Hiroki's accessible and simple control system, as well as its level design and collectibles that keep the player interested will help make this another enjoyable experience in the Nintendo Switch.- FNintendo

The Inner World is a relaxing and well-crafted point & click game which, despite its lack of a touch screen control system, will certainly be enjoyed by most players thanks to its challenging puzzles, art style, voice acting and overall environment. While some of the puzzles might seem too off the mark, the overall experience is nothing short of positive and appealing.- FNintendo

Zombie Incident is another welcoming sight of a retro-style game that is being released on the 3DS eShop. Its gameplay is addictive and the visual and sound environments fit perfectly within the era it pays tribute to, but several elements can make the experience frustrating.- FNintendo

Into The Breach is a challenging turn-based strategy game that features a competent gameplay and a wide variety of levels. While it could certainly use a more elaborate plot and some more weapon tutorials, it's safe to say that this rather orthodox work will appeal to fans of strategy games looking for something that follows the genre's main tenets.- FNintendo

Quell Memento follows the footsteps of its two predecessors so closely that it requires more original content to stand out on its own. Nevertheless, it features quality level design and it gives the player a certain margin to experience the game without too much pressure or excessive requirements.- FNintendo

Valfaris does not have to make perfect sense to be a good game and while its plot is rather basic and its gameplay doesn't always feel perfectly fluid, there's enough to this chaotic action platformer with a sci-fi and heavy metal theme to make it stand out. Thanks to its marvelous visual environment, metal-based soundtrack and variety of action moments, Valfaris is nothing short of a fun delight for fans of absurd, violent and chaotic action.- FNintendo

Niddhog 2 improves on the original game's experience to deliver a fun effort that stands out the most when played on local multiplayer, while its single-player experience feels rather empty. Nevertheless, Niddhog 2's combat system and its fluid action and gameplay mean that any party or group of players that picks it up will feel satisfied for doing so.- FNintendo

LIMBO presents itself with a unique art style which has a beauty of its own. Thanks to its style, high quality puzzles and challenging difficulty, LIMBO is a marvel of a game, which could be even better if its experience lasted longer and did not really as much on trial and error as it does.- FNintendo

It doesn't fully live up to its potential due to repetitive gameplay mechanics and to its often maladjusted control system and interface, which together with the lack of a proper plot and tutorials will only contribute to make it less appealing to many players.- FNintendo

Zombie Defense is not the most ground breaking RTS and it does not assume the role of a revolutionary trailblazer as far as zombie narratives are concerned. That said, it's a competent work with well-implemented mechanics, a good upgrade system and can provide hours of addictive fun for those who invest in it, including a solid and challenging lifespan.- FNintendo

The experience of playing Candleman is as charming as it is simple. An action-adventure game with puzzles, designed around a candle questioning their reasons to live seems unusual enough but Candleman's level design and puzzles, which fit like a glove on the Nintendo Switch format, make this game something any player can immediately get attached to. Candleman would be an even better experience if it was more ambitious and went beyond its base concepts.- FNintendo

Daemon X Machina is an edgy and well designed work that puts the player at the centre of a detailed experience, where mission planning, strategy and customization make a major contribution towards building this into more than a mere action game. If the plot is not its greatest asset, the overall experience is fun and involving and anyone who enjoys action with strategic planning will find a very satisfying time around Daemon X Machina.- FNintendo

La-Mulana knows how to be tough and demanding but dedicated players will find a game that has an interesting plot, a marvelous visual environment that's inspired on the 16-bit era, an exquisite soundtrack and very engaging puzzles. Not all players will be lured, due to some puzzles leading to frustrating moments but fans of Metroidvania-type games have a real gem here for the Nintendo Switch catalogue.- FNintendo

Farming Simulator 18 is a strategy and simulation game that manages to deliver some very entertaining elements with simple controls and a well implemented level of complexity. It does fall short on explaining the player what to do but it's a game that can easily grow on its players, reinforced by the possibility to bring it everywhere.- FNintendo

While it may not be a groundbreaking title, it's certainly effective enough at providing some fun for a few hours, even if it feels like a game that would fit better on a simpler platform, given its sense of immediacy and rather short amount of content.- FNintendo

Golazo! does not deliver a serious football simulation and that's fine - fun and intense moments is all what this game is about, with its dribbling and tackling moves, enjoyable local multiplayer (pity for the lack of online though) and overall sense of satisfaction of a few hours well spent. Some technical issues need to be addressed and the emphasis on a more action/arcade experience will leave out more committed fans of the king of sports but Golazo! is more than able to provide some hours of less than serious fun.- FNintendo

Haunted Dungeons: Hyakki Castle presents a very welcome way of merging Japanese and Western themes, as well as creative gameplay mechanics and a healthy variety of characters. Even if its flaws also stand out, namely the audio component and the rather uninspired level design, this is still a welcome arrival on the Nintendo Switch catalogue.- FNintendo

While the action can get repetitive too fast and its difficulty level is a tad too artificial, the game is an overall fun experience with a good lifespan, especially on multiplayer up to four players, which is where Castle Crashers Remastered really shines.- FNintendo

Being a short and intense game, Ziggurat gives many incentives to be played again and again and only suffers from some technical flaws in its Wii U incarnation which nevertheless don't stand in the way of an addictive game.- FNintendo
