    As a simple puzzler that's great fun to master, Pocket Puzzle really provides an impressively entertaining and charming experience.

    Whether you're playing RoboDunk for its distinct solo roguelike campaign or via local multiplayer, you'll end up having a grand time.

    I sincerely wish that Boti: Byteland Overclocked was more fine-tuned before its console debut but what we have is still a solid platformer.

    Dragon Takers isn't a bad RPG but it's certainly a generic one in many of its facets. What's here is still promising, though; I'll give it that.

    I can see most Metroidvania fans loving what ENDER MAGNOLIA: Bloom in the Mist has in store, especially if you enjoyed its predecessor.

    We need more silly games and Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos: Magazine Edition really scratched an itch with its entertaining gameplay and bubbly characterful presentation. Plus, the physical extras are brilliantly put together to make for one fan-friendly package.

    I absolutely loved my time with Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero and hope that it marks the start of many more sequels as I'm excited to see where Marona's adorable adventures take her next.

    SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada is one of the most unique and entertaining online games that I've ever played. At the same time, it can be an extremely frustrating experience if you don't play it carefully so be prepared to keep your eyes peeled during every mission.

    Blade Chimera is one of the best Metroidvanias that you can play thanks to its jam-packed gameplay, stellar presentation, and rewarding supplementary content. It may not be the longest or most challenging game in the genre but it's definitely unforgettable.

    Tales of Graces f Remastered features one of the most interesting storylines in the series and a bunch of mechanics that make it thoroughly stand out. As long as you can enjoy a very linear structure, this remaster is a great RPG to spend time with.

    As a Wii veteran, I can't help but feel a little let down but that isn't entirely Donkey Kong Country Returns HD's fault and it doesn't change how special it was when I played it originally in 2010 so if you play it as a newbie, I'm sure you'll have a great time.

    I'm very happy that I waited to play FREEDOM WARS Remastered online before writing my review because its action-intense combat lends itself so perfectly to multiplayer matches that I can't wait to play it again. You know what? I think I'll go do that now.

    Marvel Rivals is one of the more fun team-based online multiplayer games that you can play right now and with its simple gameplay and mostly straightforward unlocks, it really is a breath of fresh air. Plus, Squirrel Girl's tail is so bushy that it makes me one happy bear.

    Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana is one heck of a wild ride that acts as a wonderful nostalgic time capsule. At the same time, it's so maddeningly difficult on the normal setting and the poor sense of direction can occasionally be a tough pill to swallow.

    From its adorably charming visuals to its zany boss fights and fun Namco references, Arcade Archives TINKLE PIT is the cat's pajamas.

    If you love Raiden and want to enjoy something different then Arcade Archives VIPER PHASE 1 is a superb shmup that's sure to please.

    PICROSS S NAMCO LEGENDARY edition is the only Picross game I'll ever need thanks to its awesome theme and boatloads of content.

    As a huge fan of Volfied, it's clear that Mokoko X doesn't live up to the classic which is a shame because there's a lot of potential here.

    It's awesome that The Legend of Dark Witch Episode 2 is now for Switch and I wish more great 3DS games would be upgraded like this.

    With simple and repetitive gameplay that's impressively tight and entertaining, Uragun doesn't do much to break out of mediocrity.

    I had a wonderful time with Crystal Breaker and even though it's rather simple, there's still enough challenge to keep you delighted.

    It's great that DODONPACHI SAIDAIOUJOU is available for Switch. With so many modes and sublime gameplay, it'll knock your socks off.

    If it featured much more variety in its levels and no glitches then Ninja 1987 would be a must-play for retro action game fans.

    I had some fun with Super Rolling Heroes Deluxe and I'm sure you will, too, but it's still a frustrating and overly simplistic game.

    I had a very fun time tinkering with a variety of menacing machines in Besiege. It's quite a clever and cathartic experience.

    Who knew that caring for pets in a VR clinic could be this entertaining? Pets & Stuff is such an adorable game and I give it 2 paws up.

    Simply put, I wish that Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind was more fleshed out when it comes to its basic brawler gameplay.

    It takes a little while to grow on you but once you get in the groove, Symphonia will quickly become one of your favourite platformers.

    Sparking Beam Strike 1000 is an enjoyable and simple puzzle game that can definitely be fun in short albeit colourful bursts.

    VIVIDLOPE is one of my favourite arcade-style indies of 2024 thanks to its bubbly presentation and unique gameplay that's a ton of fun.
