Akimbot is a love letter to Ratchet & Clank, but is clearly a unique game on its own. While you fight, puzzle and platform your way through the different planets, these gameplay sections get divided by perfectly timed cutscenes and driving scenes. The humour and references to other games blend it altogether and put a smile on your face while playing.- Gameliner

Monster Jam Showdown brings the classic chaos of Monster Trucks to the Switch with smooth gameplay and impressive trucks. While the racing action is fun, the experience quickly becomes repetitive due to limited variety and slow unlocks. Ideal for fans seeking quick, mindless fun, but don't expect a deep experience.- Gameliner

There's nothing funnier than a squirrels shoving nuts down his throat while shooting special agents in the face with a firearm and Squirrel With A Gun doubles down on that fact. Unfortunately, technical difficulties, wonky controls and hard crashes are doing a serious number on Dee Dee Creations' open-squirreled shooter.- Gameliner

XDefiant offers a fast-paced, arcade-style shooter experience that’s heavy on customization but leans towards grind-heavy progression and microtransactions. While the game’s diverse factions and loadouts provide variety, its reliance on grinding or spending cash might not appeal to everyone. It’s an entertaining shooter with plenty of potential, but the balance between fun and monetization could be a sticking point for some players.- Gameliner
