It's the cast that makes Night in the Woods so memorable. [Issue #34 – July/August 2018, p. 20]

At the end of the day, DNF Duel is one of the best new fighting game IPs of the last few years, and it's an easy recommendation. But, while the Switch port is still a lot of fun (and conveniently portable!), know that it is a step down from what you can get on other platforms. [Issue #66 – July/August 2023, p. 73]

Little Nightmares is a bit of a quandary, as it's both a relaxing, floaty platformer and an unsettling portrait of the macabre. [Issue #34 – July/August 2018, p. 21]

If you really liked Happy Home Designer, you'll be very happy with how Happy Home Paradise improves on its formula, especially after you've worked your way up the ranks. If you're not interested in interior decorating, the only things you'll be missing out on of any note would be the ability to craft room dividers and redecorating your neighbors' homes. [Issue #57 – January/February 2022, p. 27]

Black Bird is small, but if the worst thing you can say about a game is that you want more of it, then that's quite the compliment. [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 25]

One heck of an entertaining experience for those willing to jump into it. [Issue #34 – July/August 2018, p. 71]

A treasure trove of tantalizing trials for players of every possible persuasion. [Issue #34 – July/August 2018, p.72]

If you're a fan of LEGO but you're tired of the usual slapstick smashy gameplay, or if you like simple puzzle games, LEGO Builder's Journey is a hidden gem that might be exactly the game you're looking for on a rainy day. [Issue #54 – September 2021, p. 22]

What a journey! After eight years of waiting, the fifth installment of MegaTen is finally here, and it manages to deliver a satisfying experience. It may not have the deepest plot or most interesting cast of human characters, but it's fun, and I appreciate that it challenged me to think more about myself, my beliefs and how I view the world around me. And how many games can do that? [Issue #57 – January/February 2022, p. 76]

There are technical limitations inherent with the Switch version of Dark Souls, but if you're from a time where you can fight through it, you should be OK. [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 73]

I recommend Boomerang X, but with one last caveat – consider its PC version before taking the plunge on Switch. I did well with this edition, but I think mouse-and-keyboard controls might have made me like it even more. [Issue #54 – September 2021, p. 29]

Pixel platformers are a dime a dozen on the Switch eShop, and sometimes it can be hard to find the treasure in the trash. Without a doubt, Bomb Chicken is one of those treasures! [Issue #35 – September/October 2018, p. 23]

Don't let the stick figure graphics turn you off – this is one journey you'll want to saddle up for, especially if you're looking for a new casual RPG, or just a good laugh! [Issue #35 – September/October 2018, p. 23]

This is one of the most gleeful, confident, silly-but-deep games I've played in years. [Issue #23 – September/October 2016, p.23]

If you missed Quake back in the day, this port is a fantastic way to experience this genre-defining work, especially for fans of 2016's DOOM. While a lot of the old-school design choices may feel simple by modern standards, it results in an elegantly intense game that's still an addicting delight to pick up for even a short session of a few minutes. [Issue #55 – October 2021, p. 22]

While some of the challenges have been too tough for my 5-year-old to tackle on his own, he never gets tired of trying. He's actually playing the game right now as I write this, laughing at Fart Cat's flatulence and working hard to find a key to a new stage. [Issue #55 – October 2021, p. 23]

It feels good to step back to where it all began. [Issue #23 – September/October 2016, p.70]

Generations feels like a half-step sequel in the series instead of a full leap into new territory. [Issue #23 – September/October 2016, p.74]

As much as I enjoyed NEO, there were a few aspects that worked against it: the characters, the difficulty levels and the time between installments. It's a great action RPG, but it was made for the TWEWY fan in mind, so if you've never played the original, do that first and see if it's up your alley before diving into this sequel. And if you are a TWEWY fan, what are you waiting for? [Issue #55 – October 2021, p. 69]

Playing through this game brought me back to my childhood, when I played the Pokémon Trading Card Game and Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards on my old Game Boys. We haven't seen many collectible card games like those on the Switch in recent years, but Shadowverse: Champion's Battle fits their mold well. So, if you're longing for that anime card game experience, give it a try and get ready to duel! [Issue #55 – October 2021, p. 71]

It's a joy to run back through this vintage adventure. [Issue #48 – September/October 2020, p. 24]

Nightdive's doing great work bringing the past back into the present. [Issue #48 – September/October 2020, p. 24]

If you're looking to try the series out for the first time, go ahead – you won't be disappointed. [Issue #19 – January/February 2016, p.68]

A challenging but fun time, boosted by great replayability. [Issue #48 – September/October 2020, p. 25]

Tribute really managed to capture old-school level-based platforming in a bottle and put their own spin on it. [Issue #48 – September/October 2020, p. 26]

The overall evolution of the Pokémon gameplay experience has taken another step forward thanks to DLC. [Issue #48 – September/October 2020, p. 28]

To see a developer fully embrace Norse mythology in a way like Jotun is refreshing. [Issue #24 – November/December 2016, p.19S]

If you're a fan of this series, buy this game. You owe it to yourself. [Issue #24 – November/December 2016, p.22S]
