    The Next Penelope: Race to Odysseus brings a very welcome mix to the usual racing game genre, presenting a wide variety of contents and a plot that acts as the thread for the races. Thanks to a simple and intuitive gameplay and to its challenging difficulty level, The Next Penelope only feels like it doesn't deliver when it comes to multiplayer, as it lacks an online multiplayer component, as well its short lifespan.

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy brings the first three games of the Spyro series in a lovely triple remake that brings their audiovisual component to our day and age while respecting the original contents and keeping most of the experience intact in an effort that will appeal to both newcomers and those looking to revive the days of this platform classic.

    Featuring an interesting premise and a rich, dynamic plot, Lone Wolf could improve its control system, which doesn't fully use the console's capacities, and often feels too close to its original version made for mobile devices than to a game designed for a dedicated console.

    Thanks to its ambiance, sound environment and plot, this is a good effort at creating a horror-themed game for the Nintendo Switch. It is not as immersive as it should be and it becomes inevitable to compare it to the original but Outlast 2 still has assets to allow it to stand on its own.

    Players should not be deceived by Ittle Dew's apparent similarities with The Legend of Zelda series. The references are merely for comic and background effect and this is, in reality, a very satisfying puzzle game that will delight those with enough mental energy to invest their time on it.

    River City Girls is a beat'em-up that brings back many elements of its predecessors, as well as new and varied characteristics that spice up the combat system. River City Girls also features a marvelously funny plot, characters that easily stand out and wonderful animations, which all make their contribution towards this being a game that even players who don't usually pay attention to beat'em-ups will enjoy.

    Warlock's Tower may look simple but beneath this exterior lies a very challenging puzzle game that although not the most original, has a very well thought main mechanic and features a quality level design and a very well implemented difficulty level that fits perfectly with the player's advance in the game.

    L.A. Noire on the Nintendo Switch brings back the best of this criminal investigation game, as its excellent actor performances and facial animation still look impressive. As unique as L.A. Noire is, however, the conversion to the Nintendo Switch also has its flaws and it doesn't add anything too significant to the original game.

    Bringing Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker to the 3DS in 2018 might seem strange at first but after a few minutes this will immediately appear as a good decision. Featuring a marvelous 3D effect and an experience that does not fall short of that of it its Wii U and Switch counterparts, this 3DS version of Treasure Tracker only makes concessions on the visual performance and replaces a number of levels with others but that is in no way an obstacle towards making this a marvelous piece of gaming.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus may be graphically diminished compared to its twins but the possibility of playing it everywhere more than makes up for it.

    The arrival of GRID Autosport in the Nintendo Switch catalogue represents a rare moment where a driving simulator lands in a Nintendo console, something which had not happened in a long time. GRID's plentiful content, its challenging and tough gameplay and the possibility to select between a better visual performance or a more fluid game experience make this one of the finest driving games on the Nintendo Switch.

    Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails is more than a throwback to the 16-bit era, it’s an action-packed challenge on rails, guaranteed to keep the most demanding players closely around its simple, yet demanding concept. The jumping mechanics could use a more accessible learning curve, but anyone who plays this will have their entertainment needs properly fulfilled.

    BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle is a very welcome new addition to the Nintendo Switch catalogue after a long absence of this series of fighting games from the Nintendo world. Thanks to its simple but engaging gameplay and solid online functionality, this is a good quality game that only gets tarnished by its over-reliance on downloadable content.

    Extreme Exorcism is a delightfully fun and charmingly chaotic experience which renovates itself with each round of play. Boosted by a visual and sound environment that fit its concept perfectly, it would gain even more if only it featured an online component.

    Noitu Love: Devolution is an action sidescroller that is full of action and that makes a good use of the 3DS and Wii U controls at delivering it. Its action might get too confusing at times but that is a small price to pay for a game that is rich in content and beautifully crafted, even if a bit short at times.

    Monster Hunter Stories is not a groundbreaking game but the good news is that it's a very competent RPG with an immense amount of content to explore, a stunning visual presentation and a fun and challenging combat system.

    Its plot could be more involving and it feels too long on several moments, while the characters certainly won't become the player's darlings but Golf Story's redeeming factors can cover part of its shortcomings and create an interesting mixture of an RPG and golf.

    The Jackbox Party Pack 5 is a fun and memorable game that will get the players to contribute and to create hours of memorable moments. While the minigames involved often leave the feeling that something is missing, the game's nature and the way it is structured make it difficult not to enjoy it for its social side.

    Not only it's the best chapter for anyone to get into the Atelier series, it also features what is probably the best alchemy and combat systems. A major step forward in the series which is more than worthy of the players' time and dedication.

    While its level of challenge is certainly welcome, it's impossible not to think that at some moments, it goes a bit too far and as such, it's recommended only for those who are mentally prepared to take on its unforgiving difficulty.
