There's so much to like in Cally's Caves 4 that it's difficult to find fault with it. Yes, it's tough, yes it's frustrating in places, but the whole time you're playing you're likely to have a huge grin on your face. If you're a fan of the series, or of old-school platformers in general, then do yourself a favour and pick this one up straight away.- Pocket Gamer UK

Overall, Into the Breach is a truly stunning strategy game, and it's right at home on Switch. With just three units to control and short matches to contend with, it's easy to pick up and play wherever you are. The strategy mechanics are absolutely sublime, and the shift from outright victory being your objective to simply scraping by will have you scratching your head and questioning every decision. It can be tough going at times, both mentally and due to its high difficulty, but if you invest some time and energy into the game, you're going to get a lot out of it.- Pocket Gamer UK

Indeed, it's somewhat ironic that only now, with the integration of Wi-Fi, Pokémon has become the community game it's always pretended to be. Casting a retrospective eye upon the series, it would appear that every game since the series started in 1995 has just been a level up. This, finally, is the real deal. [JPN Import]- Pocket Gamer UK

There are games out there that are maybes, but Starman is a definitely. It might be a little short, it might be a little slow, and it might be a little annoying in places, but when it gets things right it gets them so very right. Take your time with it, have a sit down and make a brew. By the end you'll have played through something that's really rather impressive.- Pocket Gamer UK

Pineapple: A Bitter Sweet Revenge can be played in an evening, giving you a new take on a viral Reddit story, that comes with its own message. It's also fantastic in the level of polish, providing for a very fun game to play.- Pocket Gamer UK

Streets of Rage 4 is a faithful sequel to a hit beat 'em up franchise that still manages to shine even after two decades. The mobile version will supposedly introduce multiplayer functions in a later update for free, but until then, you can rid those streets of rage alone without assists and still have a lot of fun - just remember to keep an eye out for those whole chickens someone keeps leaving behind trash cans for some reason.- Pocket Gamer UK

Tales of the Mirror is one of those games that will captivate you within the first 5 minutes, and will only build that up the more you play. Everything is perfect from an audio and graphic point of view, and when it comes to the narrative, you're in for a treat.- Pocket Gamer UK

Steamworld Heist excels at what initially seems like a potential weakness, removing a dimension from the typical 3D battlefields of XCOM and similar games. But its brand of 2D tactics only makes positioning, smart strategy, finding effective synergies between weapons and classes, that much more crucial and satisfying when you survive against overwhelming odds.- Pocket Gamer UK

SteamWorld Dig 2 is a fantastic addition to the franchise which uses everything we loved about the first game and builds on it, whilst also taking into account what fans have asked for. It's strategic, exciting, fun, utterly enjoyable, and a must-have for the average Switch owner. Whether you've played the first game or not, you'll have a blast with this one.- Pocket Gamer UK
