    A decent enough game, but there's not enough here that really sparks into life.

    Splatoon 2 is an incredible shooter that improves on the original in almost every single way. But if you still have a Wii U and don't care about taking it on the go, there might not be enough new content to justify the purchase.

    A decent enough tapper with some famous sweaty men, that doesn't add anything to the genre.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There's still a wonderful game here, it's just a little hamstrung on a platform it was never designed for.

    Layton's Mystery Journey may be a big investment, but if you're a fan of the games or love solving puzzles in general this'll be well worth the money.

    Motorsport Manager 2 is a highly polished, incredibly engaging simulation. But it's not too daunting if you're new to the genre. There are things to tweak and think about, but there's never too much information that you feel squashed under it. But there's still enough going on that you feel like you're part of something. Fans of sims, of racing, and even people with only a vague interest in either, are going to lap up everything this one has to offer. Oh hey, lap, that's a pun.

    Resynth's musical design and relaxed pace makes for a satisfying minimalist puzzle game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Lots of bitty components fail to amount to much of anything in this slightly thin sci-fi spin-off.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Shephy has a lot of promise, but ultimately lets itself down by unbalanced decks and somewhat messy rules.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Death Squared is a well-made and entertaining cooperative puzzler which seems a pretty darn perfect fit on the Switch.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Street Fighter 4: Champion Edition doesn't really work on mobile. One to give a miss for now.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Heavily derived from Clash Royale, SIEGE: Titan Wars does make a few small changes to keep things interesting.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Overall, I and Me has some good ideas but the gameplay dries up too quickly to warrant hours of play.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Minecraft: Story Mode, S2, kicks off the series with a bang as fans both familiar and new to the series are met with humour, adventure, and an intriguing storyline.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An excellent retro arcade blast that improves on the original in pretty much every way.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Breath of the Wild's first DLC definitely has a lot of goodies on offer, however I can only hope DLC 2 has more to offer in terms of story.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A clever and compelling one-touch arcade blast that's well worth checking out.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Bulb Boy makes itself at home on the Switch to give us a spooky puzzler to play at home or on the go.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow has some fun ideas, but its free-to-play features weigh it down.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A smart and slick platformer that just gets better the deeper you get into it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The House of Da Vinci may borrow heavily from The Room, but it's a well-made, detailed, and complex puzzler with a lot to offer.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    GoNNER isn't a roguelike revolution, but a celebration of the best the genre has to offer in a neat little package.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    NBA Playgrounds is a half-baked arcade basketball game that's lacking in content and features. Only the die-hard fans need apply.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Night School Studios' top of the line writing takes steps to save what was an imperfect movie in this fine narrative-driven adventure.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas is right at home on the Nintendo Switch, if only it implemented more of the console's features.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A decent mobile port of a smart game that's well worth a look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    About as shameless as it gets, Blitz Brigade: Rival Tactics takes all the ideas of Clash Royale while completely ignoring what made it great.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's definitely not for everyone, but Farming Simulator 18 is the absolute best example of a simulator on mobile.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's all been done before, and even with a handful of new ideas, Asphalt Street Storm Racing doesn't do it much better.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There's nothing broken here, not really, it's just a little scrappy in places. There's charm all the same, and a decent graphical style that changes from level to level. It might not have the bright ideas of the best action adventure games on mobile, but there's enough to keep you playing right to the end of everything Mr Future Ninja has to offer.
