    Pinball FX3 brings to Nintendo Switch the feeling of holding a real table in the player’s hands, each joy-con becoming a flipper button. FX3 is possibly the best virtual pinball game ever created, but truth being told, sometimes, following the ball can be a bit exasperating, due to the high number of elements on the board.

    Even though it doesn’t include many new features, Outlast: Bundle of Terror is a really interesting pack that horror survival fans will love. Both the intense atmosphere and the vulnerability feeling of the main character make us deep dive into the story compensating its small graphic issues.

    BGA’s goal is quite clear: to gather various players in a crazy fighting/shooter game. Despite this, its game modes and variations will not be entertaining enough for more than an hour.

    Radiation Island is a fun game to play, despite its mistakes (not a few). Even though, it seems that such fun is due to its influences from similar better games. One more example of smartphone games that do not work properly on Switch.

    The dumb one and the smart one, the fat one and the skinny one or the handsome one and the ugly one bring us a puzzle and platforming adventure with a significant amount of technical work behind it. Even though the modest amount of experience of Rock Pocket Games has taken its toll, the way in which they played with the weights of the two astronauts surprised us with a well-rounded game that lacked a little bit of risk.

    This is the game that has adapted the formula from the original video game to present times. Clearly, it's a limited formula; for many it can already be worn out or obsolete. However, it has nice-looking visual effects, one or two more speeds so that mastering the skills and reaching better scores is slightly more attractive than ever.

    Shoot'em up lovers will love this old-school game as well as lovers of eastern culture thanks to its constant references to Japan. Maybe it's not the best within its genre, but it's very entertaining and, above all, fun if you play co-op with a friend.

    A horror game with good ideas that comes up short in many aspects: while its history is addictive and progressively improves, its short duration brings us back to reality, and while its setting and sound put us in a tense mood with some jump scares mixed in, its technical side takes us out of that mood with a significant range of defects to be cleaned up.

    It finds an equilibrium between all the ideas that it brings together. The tower defense sections work well after having beaten small 2.5D metroidvania-type platforming levels.

    A Normal Lost Phone tells a story of visibility about a group that frequently goes unnoticed in the heteropatriarchal society in which we live. It's a good sample of how the video game medium can act as valid artistic expression in order to make society more sensitive to its more cancerous problems.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    The menus are confusing, it's not animated or dubbed, not even to emphasize the reactions of the protagonist to the bawdy phrases from their courtesans. However, the quality of the dialogue, the good structuring of the text and the option to be able to choose between characters allows any dirty girl (or boy, of course) to find the material to build their fantasies with.

    The combat is simple but deep at the same time due to the amount of actions that Lone Wolf can perform and about which the player will always need to be careful in order to react to the QTEs in time. All of this is complemented by minigames which makes this into a good deal for any lover of literature and video games.

    It has a minimalist look, but is completely loaded with color and expressiveness that will make the player enjoy the story that they want to tell. On the other hand, there are small mismatches on the technical side of things and above all in the controls which makes enjoying it a little complicated.

    Oh… Sir! The Hollywood Roast proposes a different and wild idea wrapped in a unique setting and a sense of humor with good and bad parts. It's not every day that we play an insult simulator, for which reason it's an attractive offer that, nevertheless, ends up becoming repetitive after a few hours of gameplay, something accentuated by its lack of content.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    The variety sticks out because of its absence and the difficulty level provides no challenge, which, when added to its casual but very limited technical aspect and the lack of other modes of play, make it into just another game that lends itself to comparison with mobile games.

    Undercoders has made a strange mix of sauces. Superola and the Lost Burgers is chaos where absurd memes, irreverent comedy, repetitive design, good control and nonsensical randomness all coexist, in which there is no middle ground.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Pure strategy and unexpected challenges all around. Although it doesn't reach the level of graphics that we are used to today, it has a wonderful setting, both in the level of detail in the stages and in its sound effects. It takes advantage of almost all the features of the Nintendo hybrid console.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This game invites us to stop and reflect before acting, for which reason we will need to use our cunning to solve the different word-based puzzles that we will find. Despite aesthetically recalling other great games, it has its own personality that sets it apart from the rest, presenting a magnificent setting.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    This is a game that plays with us, taking us where it wants to and it's impossible to resist its story. However, bad optimization weighs down a great game that is still worth the effort and gathers so many influences from horror games and works such as those of Edgar Allan Poe that becomes a fun, terrifying option.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A 2D action game with a frantic rhythm and a very striking and well-done visual aspect. It proposes many missions and possibilities but they get diluted over time after repeating the same stages and mechanics again and again. The multiplayer mode makes this shooting game's fun last longer by letting us play in co-op mode locally and online.
    • 70 Metascore

    It is notable for its great story that will offer us hours of fun. We will be able to encounter a wide variety of mechanics that give the title good gameplay, where exploration becomes very important.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    As a graphic novel it perfectly meets the need for a topic that manages to remarkably immerse the player. However, there are some evident faults regarding gameplay due to it being an exact port from the PC, without betting on the Nintendo Switch's mechanics.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    A game that will without a doubt delight puzzle-lovers and all those that are interested in filling in little gaps of free time in their day-to-day life. The local cooperative mode and its 300 levels will provide hours of fun playing by yourself or surrounded by family, friends and even the little ones at home.

    Uurnog is not your typical platforming game. Nor is it a puzzle game, but it makes us jump and advance through stages while we avoid and overcome obstacles in a clever manner. Its peculiar play system, similar to that of Super Mario Bros 2, will make more than one player smile.

    Fe
    Fe is a game that has a special charm which is difficult to describe with words. On an audiovisual level, it is a delight for the senses. Few games transmit so much using so little, giving more weight to the story using the setting, which is what transmits the story to us, not with words but precisely with their absence.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It has potential, it's easy to play but difficult to master, although unfortunately after playing it the sensation is that it's not being taken advantage of. It ends up being a pleasant and fun game, especially for playing with friends, but its content is slight in general but also especially for a single player.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    An outstanding story in contrast with slightly repetitive gameplay and its short duration, but that makes it good to recommend for those looking for a relaxed and deep game.
    • 68 Metascore

    One of the games that has the best value for your money currently in the Nintendo Switch eShop: loads of action and an extravagant setting confirm that this is a highly recommended game.

    Shoot, jump and duck. These three basic actions are applied with excellence in this addictive metroidvania that will keep you hooked all evening. Despite the excellent playability of Xeodrifter, the creativity got lost in outer space together with some mechanics inspired by other Atooi worlds.

    Bayonetta 2 for the Nintendo Switch brings a colossal Hack & Slash experience to a portable console for the first time, which can also be enjoyed at home in the living room. A port of a sublime game that could have had more work done on its graphics and gameplay, but that exceeds expectations.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Bayonetta is the intellectual property model that the specialized press demands from Japanese creators: games with their own idiosyncrasy, a Japanese tale about any story from around the world making the game into a cult hit. Moreover, the refined Hack'n'Slash style of Platinum Games from one of the studio's masterpieces can now be played anywhere thanks to the Switch's hardware, and it's wonderful.

    Like the gentle flapping of an owl, Owlboy arrives on the Nintendo Switch promising to make us fly. Soar across the skies of his world to discover an enigmatic story full of emotions, together with memorable travel companions, impressive graphics and a soundtrack that, despite its small faults, will make you feel free.
    • 64 Metascore

    It has its imperfections, but this doesn't make it a bad game, and we are very sure that for people who like puzzle games like this it will be a pleasant experience.

    Sky Force Reloaded is a game that perfectly combines old-school shoot 'em ups with innovation. If you like the genre and you want a game that is challenging and adapted to current times, it is without a doubt a very interesting title to keep in mind in the Switch's library.

    Night in the Woods transports us to a world of stormy pasts, uncertain futures and a lost young girl lost in the present. It's difficult to find another game that is so close and so subjective at the same time, playing and experimenting with the medium's narrative limits. Its artistic style, music, characters and story make it into an indispensable addition to the Nintendo Switch.

    Celeste presents a great challenge: complete platforming levels with perfected skill and pinpoint accuracy. And it mixes this with a story that is a perfect marriage for the playability of the game: get to the top of a mountain. However, the best part of the game is that the mountain is constantly a metaphor of different fears that occupy the mind of the player, and beating the game gives a hint for how to overcome these fears beyond the on-screen experience.

    SteamWorld Dig is a fun title that perfectly combines adventure, exploration and platforming. This is a very fun and entertaining game that you can now enjoy in portable mode and on the TV. Its short length is the only negative point that you could find.
    • 28 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    An inexpensive, simple arcade game for all audiences. Maybe it's too inexpensive, since it lacks depth in the playable aspect and it shows a technical limitation like games from past generations.

    Given the short duration of the matches, this title is an ideal game for the Nintendo Switch's category and being able to play together with another person at all times is an interesting addition and makes it even more attractive.

    Gunbird is an interesting game in its genre that is differentiated by presenting an odd group of characters instead of only controlling ships and furthermore by the introduction of a small story with dialogue between stages, something that gives it a certain appeal.

    Dragon Quest Builders is a construction adventure in the style of Minecraft but focused on single-player mode. A large part of the multi-player component is removed to give the game more plot, making it much more desirable for those that want to get lost in Dragon Quest worlds made by themselves.

    McMillen's universe masterfully fills our Nintendo Switch's screen and once again offers us another great game. With Super Meat Boy you will find a game full of quick platforms in which you'll have to use all your reflexes. A true test of your skill and above all your patience.

    The level design is smart, making Max's jetpack skill fun. Furthermore, the superimposed layers manage to impress and offer the player something surprising.

    A top-down shooter where we have to survive hundreds of enemies with the power of our weapons and items. That's it. Forget about elaborate stories, exploration or any other kind of incentive.

    Roguelikes are characterized by having a good amount of secrets to be discovered, and Enter the Gungeon does not disappoint. Even so, discovering how to unlock certain secrets or puzzles is just a matter of time, a lot of time.

    A nice and very well-thought-out game that recalls true jewels like Drawn to Life on the Nintendo DS. It will spark the imagination of the smallest players... and not-so-small ones.

    The Skill Points system was a great bet, since it's faster than the experience system. On the other hand, the high difficulty of the enemies in addition to the lack of specification of a clear plot, will give you serious headaches.

    Shu
    A nice and fairly simple platforming game, which ends up being entertaining, despite its short length. Its collectables can bring some replayability to the game, but the sensation after completing it is that it could have gone much farther if its developers had tried a little harder in some aspects.

    Fun, unexpected and fosters cooperation among friends. These are its three greatest achievements. Thanks to these things, it should capture the attention of the Nintendo fanbase that finds it among the never ending eShop list of the console.

    A fairly fun puzzle game that offers challenges for hours thanks to the amount of levels it has which are apt for all players, it being controlled with only a button / touch screen. The cooperative multiplayer mode exclusive to the Nintendo Switch is without a doubt one of its best points.

    The original idea of Monster Jam: Crush It! is good, but it misses the mark in many aspects and it lacks more content, such as a greater variety of stages and different modes of play. It's barely replayable which is due to the fact that it doesn't offer incentives that make its duration less than enough.

    Lost Sphear is a good game in which Tokyo RPG Factory has taken good notes on the features that were criticized in I am Setsuna. While it's true that it isn't a perfect game and even though it has improved aspects such as the combat mechanics or the greater variety in the surroundings, it continues to have room for improvement in others, such as the dungeons.

    This is a creative and curious title that, although it plainly borrows the format of Guitar Hero, manages to have an unique personality and is attractive. What doesn't convince us is the mechanical and underdeveloped repetition, together with the light amount of content that it offers.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Groundbreaking, striking, brilliant. It takes the sensation of being at war so far that the doubts and suffering of the characters comes out of the screen and implant themselves in the player. This does require an hours-long learning process based on the tutorials.

    • 70 Critic Score
    A first-person skill and puzzle game loaded with color and freshness. It's nice to get these types of games that make us stop and change pace that are more rewarding than ever.

    Nightmare Boy is halfway between both, excellent in some aspects and frustrating in others. Nevertheless, it is a challenging metroidvania game with a memorable design that demonstrates the good state of Spanish video game development.

    A carbon copy of classic Zelda games, but in my opinion the best part of this game is not how it looks, but its story design. A mixture of fairy tales.
