    SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star Game is the funniest game of the year with its hilarious open-ended gameplay that's sure to crack you up. Who knew that a sandbox game for kids could be this much fun?

    You don't often see hidden object games incorporate as many elements as Hidden in my Paradise does and it comes together beautifully.

    Europa's lovely sights pop on Switch with gorgeous environments and animation but its barebones gameplay becomes rather tedious.

    As a delightful game to wind down with, Caravan SandWitch presents a stylish and chill world but it's certainly lacking gameplay-wise.

    I had a solid time with Soul Stalker even if its gameplay and structure aren't particularly fresh. Plus, it's very cute.

    I love how Card-en-Ciel combines characters from Inti Creates' games into one strategic campaign that's impressively tough to put down.

    Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered offers a fresh coat of paint to a game that was already boasting beautiful graphics, bringing it on par with its sequel. If you've never played it before, it's a great excuse to get into the series and if you have already completed it then the low cost of the upgrade is a good excuse to relearn the lore and dig into a New Game+.

    Life is Strange: Double Exposure pulls you back into the world of Max Caulfield only this time, it has matured into a deeper storyline that provides more welcome gameplay than previous titles so if you're a fan of the series then you won't want to miss this one.

    Arsene Lupin: Once A Thief lets you play as both the thief and the detective while trying to thwart their crimes which is an interesting premise. However, the execution is lacking and it presents too many frustrating moments for me to recommend it.

    Killing Time: Resurrected is a curiosity from the past that makes for a great time capsule even if it isn't all that great of a game.

    With its unconventional premise, El Paso, Elsewhere is a blast as you shoot at all sorts of monstrous foes while popping pills like a pro.

    You wouldn't think a licensed package like RetroRealms would be as entertaining as it is so I'm very happy that it exists; top quality stuff.

    Out of all of the retro-style indie games that I've played, Fear the Spotlight is one of the most impressive and I hope to play a sequel.

    Back in 2015, Until Dawn would have made a bigger impact for its bold movie-like experience but now, it certainly falls a bit flat.

    If you play one game this Halloween, it should definitely be SILENT HILL 2 which remains in a class of its own even all these years later.

    The Smurfs - Dreams is one of the best co-op games that you can play with its variety of super-fun levels, adorable game world, and clever gadgets that elevate the gameplay to new heights. I can't wait for more Smurftastic entertainment like this.

    As with most SaGa games, Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven isn't for everyone but those who enjoy it will love it a lot. Spanning generations and a huge stand-out game world, it's one of the grandest RPGs ever made.

    I had a great time playing SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS with its modern adaptation of a genuine classic and its super-fun new campaign featuring Shadow the Hedgehog. This is such a bountiful package that any Sonic fan will absolutely love.

    I had a wonderful time with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed and its enjoyable co-op gameplay with memorable characters that all have top-notch voice actors. The pizza did come out of the oven a bit too early, though.

    I'm definitely looking forward to whatever they make next which will hopefully be a bit more polished and much less derivative.

    Super Mario Party Jamboree is definitely one of the best games in the entire franchise and my personal favourite one so far. If you're looking to have a party with local friends or online friends-to-be, be sure not to ignore your invite to this shindig.

    I had an excellent time with Ys X: Nordics and it's outstanding that after all these years, Adol's adventures are still taking him to such refreshingly different worlds that are home to distinctly memorable characters. It makes me wonder: where will he end up next?

    Besides a few minor frustrations, TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials presents a superb blend of racing, platforming, and shooting that really packs a punch when it all comes together. Whether you're testing your skills or taking on a chum, you'll have a great time.

    Even though I enjoyed its online multiplayer much more than its story mode, there's no denying that DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO is a great fighting game. It's also one that the more you play it, the more you'll enjoy it because of its steep yet rewarding learning curve.

    If Max Mustard was a non-VR platformer, it would be excellent but add in virtual reality and you're left with an unforgettable experience.

    If you love classic Dreamcast games then you'll have a blast with Parcel Corps and its colourful yet oddly sinister setting.

    I wish that The Plucky Squire was a smoother and more challenging experience because it certainly has a clever premise and game world.

    I had a blast with KILL KNIGHT and plan on playing it much more as I climb the leaderboards higher and higher; what a great shooter.
