    Mario Tennis Aces
    Play through the story mode until you take out the first boss and you should have a good grip on how the game is played, once there I suggest you stop before the game turns you into a gibbering gibbon of pure hatred. Take that part as a tutorial and then play against your friends and you’ll have a whale of a time. I put the game in front of my family members, and for the first time ever I saw interactions that wouldn’t look out of place in a Switch infomercial, they were having pure, unadulterated fun and that’s where this game’s magic lies.

    Unravel Two
    If you enjoyed the original it's certainly worth going back for more, but there's not enough for returning players that weren't enamoured by its predecessor.

    Might & Magic Elemental Guardians
    There’s a decent RPG here under the F2P veneer, look past that and you’ll find a load of stuff to do.

    Jurassic World Evolution
    It's quite slow to start and has a pretty harsh difficulty curve, but when everything clicks, it proves to be the best use of the Jurassic licence yet. Running a park isn’t easy, but incubating your first velociraptor makes it all worthwhile.

    Moonlighter
    Whereas normal Roguelites are content with the loop of combat and loot gathering, Moonlighter’s idea of selling gathered loot in your own shop is ingenious.

    Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido
    A fun, fast, frantic puzzle matching game that hopefully won’t frustrate you to the point you want to throw your Switch like one of the game’s plates.

    FOX n FORESTS
    Fox n Forests does a lot to appeal to your retro visual nostalgia while playing well in a modern gaming world. It is full of gorgeous pixel art visuals, nice writing, and interesting bosses. I really just wish it had some good HD Rumble and was a bit longer.

    Smoke and Sacrifice
    If you enjoyed or enjoy games like Don’t Starve and want something like that with a great art style, Smoke and Sacrifice is for you. There’s always a sense of mystery that is nice and the mix of different mechanics works well. The world always seems huge and the game isn’t a short experience. If you’re willing to overlook some of these flaws like the UI problems, you will find a lot to love here. I can’t wait to see this improve over time.

    Fallen Legion: Rise to Glory
    Developers who port multiple games to the Switch in a single package should add something to incentivize double dips and YummyYummyTummy has done just that. Even if you played these games on either system before, this is worth looking into if you enjoyed your time with Fallen Legion.

    BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle
    The Switch version is fantastic for everything but online play. The lack of anti aliasing is only really noticeable if you play with RWBY and other characters together thanks to the new sprites versus the older ones. I had no performance issues at all. This game runs like a dream in portable and docked modes.

    BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle
    If you’re a fan of either of the universes here, this is well worth your time and money.

    The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker
    The characters are interesting, and the psychological threads draw out the plot leaving you just as vulnerable as the patients your interviewing.

    ONRUSH
    Onrush takes the team-based multiplayer of Overwatch and combines it with a blend of Motorstorm and Burnout, creating one of the most unique and fun arcade driving games of this generation.

    Vampyr
    A compellingly macabre adventure let down by so-so combat and a few niggling flaws.
    • 47 Metascore

    Agony
    As its name suggests, playing this at times is painful, void of fun, and a chore that could've been avoided had a lot more care been put into it.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Football, Tactics & Glory
    Football, Management and Tactics combines the best and worst parts of football management and strategy games, and that’s probably about it.

    Happy Birthdays
    If you enjoy sandbox games and want one that manages to add in quite a few mechanics and systems together, Happy Birthdays is a charming game.

    Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection
    The Switch version is pretty damn fantastic. I’ve played this on both PS4 and Switch. It plays great and everything runs and looks super on the Switch screen. If you’re a fan of the franchise, this is a great piece of history that has a lot of things fans will adore.

    N++
    N++ is a game that absolutely can be its best on the Switch but in its current state, I’d recommend buying it on PS4 or Xbox if you want to play docked. If you want it handheld, this is absolutely worth picking up right now.

    Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire
    Pillars of Eternity II is incredible. From the layered-but-accessible combat, to the deep conversation systems and sailing around a world packed with quests and events; there are few RPGs out there that can stand up to this giant.
    • 73 Metascore

    Runner3
    Runner3 is reminiscent of the hard as nails games of old, and wants you to play the game over, but it will cause you to lose your temper.

    Dark Souls Remastered
    While nothing has actually changed in terms of content, the visual and performance upgrades are much more noticeable than expected. This makes Dark Souls Remastered the definitive edition of FromSoftware’s modern classic.

    Yoku's Island Express
    One part Metroidvania, one part pinball game, Yoku’s Island Express is a beautiful mashup that just shouldn’t work. But it does, and as a result, it’s just wonderful.

    Space Hulk: Deathwing
    If you're looking for a science fiction FPS that'll feed your hunger until the heavyweights arrive, give it a go. Despite its flaws there's still fun to be had.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Sega Genesis Classics
    Many of the games featured were great back in the day, but if we're going to revisit them now, it'd be nice to have some more features for the nostalgic amongst us to enjoy.

    Detroit: Become Human
    A cliche-ridden written story that has some decent ideas throughout, but is so bleak it's hard to grow attached to.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Conan Exiles
    Conan Exiles excels in its sense of place, and has an absorbing and complex crafting system that will keep you coming back, but there is no escaping that it is a deeply flawed game that still feels a little unfinished.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time
    A good premise that just doesn’t match up to it’s execution, much like one of Akko’s spells.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Homo Machina
    A superbly realised little game let down by a lack of things to do.
    • 79 Metascore

    Death Road to Canada
    When it originally launched on the Switch, it had some performance issues and a poorly thought out icon on the home screen but both of these have been fixed since then. Now, Death Road to Canada is in my goto Switch games that I play while travelling alongside The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ and Enter the Gungeon. If you enjoy roguelikes, this one is super fun and pretty damn polished.
