When I played the game during the first Switch beta test, I said Tencent Games wasn’t screwing around. It still isn’t. This is the absolute premier way to play the game. Arena of Valor may have been born on mobile, but on Switch is where it feels at home.
Wandersong is the most emotionally satisfying game I’ve played in 2018. It’s a rollercoaster ride through the spectrum of feelings, all wrapped up in a lovingly crafted construction paper world. I didn’t even know this game existed a month ago. Now, it’s one I’ll never forget.
Senran Kagura Reflexions is really nothing more than a proof of concept. Honey∞Parade Games set out to make a game where you touch Asuka all over until she’s been satisfied and in that respect, it succeeds. Just a damn shame the developer couldn’t turn all that touching into something worth...
Little Dragons Café is the type of game I walk away from feeling more hopeful in the world. Each chapter ends on such an earnest note that it raises my spirits. Sure, it doesn’t have the deepest mechanics, and it’s not the most polished title I’ll play this year. But...
Code of Princess EX really doesn’t take itself seriously, but you should. Though not all of the 50+ characters are worth maxing out, the eight heroes of the campaign and the unlockable bosses are an absolute joy to play, learn, and master. With so many modes and so many quests, this...
I have a lot of questions for this game, like why is Poseimon one of the last tracks I unlock when it’s so dull and why does Dino Juice have a Jurassic Park design motif with a Danny Elfman inspired music track? Or why did I race the same track two...
Mario Tennis Aces has a chance at being a great game down the road. Right now, it’s simply good. The gameplay is as addictive as ever and the Adventure Mode is a great way to educate people on the ins and outs of Mario Tennis. It’s just missing features that, while...
Gal*Gun 2
Nothing in Gal*Gun 2 tries to go beyond what the series has done before. Many parts don’t even keep on par. Changing the structure of the campaign helps pad the play time, and it’s still a silly, relaxing, and quirky experience with bizarre elements that are beyond explanation — hit...
Part Time UFO is a HAL Laboratory classic through and through. It’s cute, charming, and challenging. It may not set the mobile world on fire, but honestly, it’s the exact type of game I’d love to see more of from the old-school titans of the industry.
When I first previewed Monster Energy Supercross many months ago, I thought it was a fun racing game with a lot of potential. I still think it’s fun, but this first run at the license from Milestone doesn’t come anywhere close to meeting its real potential.
One week isn’t enough to really understand everything about this game. The campaign is complete, but there is much still to do with the post-game content, trophies and what I can only assume are many more mysteries I can solve. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is not a game you should...
There is more to this game, a lot more, but I just don’t care. Cladun Returns: This is Sengoku! can be played for hundreds of hours, but these are hours I want to spend with something I actually like. There are a lot of facets here, including quests I can...
