    Calamity Angels: Special Delivery
    First and foremost, Calamity Angels: Special Delivery is a comedy game and it delivers (sorry) on that foundation exceptionally well as it'll constantly make you laugh out loud if you don't take it too seriously. Even though it gets repetitive, you'll still make plenty of memories.

    Ys X: Proud Nordics
    Ys X: Proud Nordics is the same great game with extra content that adds a lot of value and rewarding challenges for those who master its memorable seafaring campaign. It may have released a bit too soon but what's here is excellent stuff regardless.

    High on Life 2
    High On Life 2 presents such a constant barrage of ridiculous humour and memorable gameplay scenarios that it can be a great deal of fun. At the same time, its core gameplay is quite simple and not everyone will appreciate its world's cynical albeit colourful lens.

    BlazBlue Entropy Effect X
    BlazBlue Entropy Effect X is one of the best roguelikes thanks to its action-packed combat, strategic upgrades, huge variety of characters, superb animation, and constant sense of reward. If you love 2D action games then you'll have a wonderful time with this impressive package.

    Mario Tennis Fever
    Mario Tennis Fever is absolutely the best game in the series so far and if you enjoy the back-and-forth of the sport as you take in all of the wonderfully charming sights and sounds then this is a must-play game that really shines in multiplayer.

    Relooted
    Relooted's clever blend of gameplay elements as you plan, solve puzzles, and then execute via exciting parkour segments completely blew me away and it certainly stands tall as one of the most unique and rewarding indie games that you'll ever play.

    SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION is bursting with explosive old-school fun that has held up outstandingly well over the decades. Whether you're playing it solo or with a couchful of chums, you'll be in for one superbly entertaining time.

    My Hero Academia: All's Justice
    MY HERO ACADEMIA: All's Justice is a flashy and entertaining fighter that folks of all skill levels can easily enjoy thanks to its intuitive and accessible control options. Plus, it looks excellent to boot and is full of superbly memorable characters.

    Nioh 3
    Nioh 3 is a superbly enjoyable culmination of action RPG fun and its open environments are bursting with so much rewarding content that it's hard to put it down whenever you start playing. It may be a big change of pace but I'm incredibly happy with everything it offers.

    The graphical upgrade and streamlined gameplay of DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined provide a breath of fresh air that do a great job of making this classic RPG appeal to both new and familiar audiences.

    Rightfully, Beary Arms
    I had fun with the basic gameplay and quirky premise of Rightfully, Beary Arms but it definitely doesn't live up to its genre contemporaries.

    MIO: Memories in Orbit
    I had a great deal of fun while being immersed in the striking world within MIO: Memories in Orbit as it is one captivating Metroidvania.

    Brave x Junction
    I appreciate Brave x Junction's Blackjack battles but the overall fun factor wears thin after traversing only a few of its repetitive dungeons.

    There are so many puzzle and strategy elements in Drop Duchy - Complete Edition yet it ties them all together into one super-fun formula.

    Candylands Journey
    Candylands Journey is a fitting follow-up to the delightful Farlands Journey and I downright adore both of these super-fun retro-inspired indies.

    Escape from Ever After
    Escape from Ever After establishes its lighthearted fairy tale world wonderfully with its endearing visuals, characters, and music and it plays superbly to boot thanks to its impressively strategic party setup and battle mechanics. What an absolute delight.

    Dynasty Warriors: Origins
    Dynasty Warriors: Origins is a supremely fun one-on-many fighting experience with familiar grand scale battles combining with freshly challenging elements that can really put your skills and reflexes to the test and it works wonderfully on Nintendo Switch 2.

    Suika Game Planet
    It's no Fruit Mountain but Suika Game Planet is still a good time with its simple and satisfying gameplay. Plus, there are stickers to collect!

    Super Farming Boy
    Super Farming Boy is one of my new favourite indie games with its adorable visuals and super-rewarding gameplay where strategically placing crops will make you feel like a farming legend who may just be capable enough to save their mom and friends.

    Octopath Traveler 0
    Despite some of my issues with OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0, there was simply only one conclusion I could draw after finishing the game: the future of the series is bright and I couldn't be happier about that.

    Hero Seekers
    Hero Seekers is the first game from VANGUARD that really clicked with me and I'm looking forward to many more games from them as they continue to improve on their established formulas to create increasingly fun and memorable old-school RPGs.

    ARC Raiders
    ARC Raiders is a heck of a lot of fun that'll have you coming back for more even months after you started playing it. In fact, it may just be the most immediately gratifying pick-up-and-play shooter that I've ever enjoyed. Definitely check it out if you haven't already.

    Big Hops
    Big Hops is a super-cute game that can be a lot of easygoing fun if you enjoy physics-based 3D platforming. However, its mostly empty environments, occasionally annoying glitches, and odd flimsy gameplay segments make it fall flat from time to time.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon
    The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon is a massive game with oodles of familiar and fresh characters, locales, mechanics, and quests. It can actually be a bit too much at times yet it all comes together to form one of the best-crafted modern RPGs.

    Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga is bursting with nostalgic fighting fun for any fan of Nihon Falcom's RPGs. Although it's rather basic, there's so much packed in that you're bound to love unlocking oodles of goodies as you take in all the lovely sights and sounds.

    Simogo Legacy Collection - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
    Even if you end up playing only 1 or 2 of the games, the level of quality showcased in Simogo Legacy Collection makes it well worth owning.
