    Dragon Star Varnir is a step up from a lot of Compile Heart's games, but the Switch version is a technical mess.

    Fairy Tail 2 is a wonderful continuation of this RPG anime adaptation, with fast paced flashy combat and a gorgeous world to explore.

    Switchback VR surprises and delights with its jump scare rollercoaster ride through its greatest hits, offering a great reason to don a headset.

    The Golf Club promises a lot but falls down on its implementation. Golf fans will find a lot to like here, though, with the Designer and the solid gameplay providing an expansive experience. Unfortunately, last-gen visuals and a series of frustrating issues make this a hard game to recommend to all but the golf obsessed.

    Touhou Genso Wanderer was a really good roguelike on the PS4 already and the added content and portability aspect of the Switch makes this the definitive version of Touhou Genso Wanderer by far. If you’ve been craving your Mystery Dungeon and Shiren fix on Switch, this is the game to get.

    An interesting and great-looking game that blends the visual novel genre with poorly thought-out strategic combat.

    From the outside Atlas Fallen has all the pieces of an open world fantasy epic, but if you look a little more closely you'll see the cracks.

    Mixing puzzles, stealth and even mild horror elements, FRACTER is a short, sweet adventure that’s just fun to play.

    Kinetic Edge feels like its fighting with itself just a little too much. While having more modes makes the initial menu screen a bit more vibrant - like Kinetic Edge’s visuals - that vibrance becomes tedious and a little wasted.

    Ikai does a great job of incorporating Japanese folklore into a claustrophobic psychological horror, with some smart puzzles throughout.

    The daunting difficulty is always going to be a problem to a newcomer taking their first steps into such a popular, community-driven landscape, but Magic 2015 offers an in-depth tutorial that doesn’t skimp on the information. Sadly, though, the main game will disappoint established fans.

    Matches in AEW: Fight Forever are a ton of fun to play, with a career mode that takes inspiration from Yakuza in the best kind of way.

    Little Town Hero is a slice of something different. It rewards tactical, considered play in a lovely charming village setting. If you can overlook the randomness of battles, there's a lot to like here.

    Adore brings action packed combat to the monster collecting genre, but unfortunately it's just too repetitive and frustrating to recommend.

    A brainless shooter that manages to be fun despite poor aesthetics and a host of technical issues.

    While NASCAR Heat 3 is still a fun racer and a great representation of the sport and its support classes, it just doesn’t do enough to differentiate itself from the previous two games.

    Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles is a lovely, sedate open world adventure game that inexplicably gates its crafting mechanic behind an obtuse, tiered system that renders it moot.

    A unique experience that gets tedious very quickly but also one that should be experienced by anyone craving some mindless (but perverse) fun.

    Elex II is another example of Piranha Bytes aiming far too high. It's a plodding, often clunky adventure with few bright spots.

    Aside from the short length, there isn’t much that Chronology does wrong. The platforming is competent and it controls pretty solidly; the puzzling is well thought-out and intuitive, and the gameplay interesting and varied. But none of the elements truly excel either, leaving you with the feeling that, whilst enjoyable, this is a game that could have been great were a few more risks taken.

    A poor first expansion to Ubisoft's floundering shooter. They must do better.

    In its current state, the Switch version has no touch screen support. This is very disappointing given the platform and its various input options are perfectly suited to games in this genre. Thimbleweed Park is the best example of how to handle bringing the genre to Switch. The Switch version of Deponia also has some inconsistency with A and B for selecting. Usually, games that see late ports to Switch and cost more have a few added extras. Over here, you aren’t getting anything extra barring the asking price.

    Rust is a survival MMO filled with danger around every corner. It's punishing at first, but certain players will end up feeling at home.

    Nightmare Reaper is a fast paced and fun boomer shooter, which isn't too punishing with the Roguelike stuff.

    It may be too short, but it attempts to make up for that with a decent variety of extra modes and a very well implemented group dynamic.

    Scars Above is a well-crafted third-person shooter with plenty of options to take on the punishing alien world you find yourself in.

    You cannot help but think that a more fitting tribute to the little yellow fella would have been a standalone version of the top-drawer Battle Royale, with the inclusion of online play that they have bafflingly ignored.

    A good second stab for Ubisoft's latest spin-off series, India makes up for what it lacks in excitement with visual flare.

    Initial bewilderment gives way to fascination as you understand what Ancestors is trying to do, but fiddly controls and a lack of hand-holding leads to frustration.
