Operencia: The Stolen Sun is an old school dungeon crawler that evokes real feelings of nostalgia, but might be a bit more difficult to adapt to for those used to the comforts of more modern games.  These challenging retro-style games have seen a bit of a comeback recently, most notably with surprise hit Darkest Dungeon.  Operencia operates in a bit more straightforward way than DD though, with a static cast of characters, and no fatigue or other usage concerns to…

Nintendo surprised everyone by releasing a Nintendo Direct Mini today. You can check it out below and then please come back here for some thoughts on the Direct! I thought the Nintendo Direct mini was pretty good! No major new Nintendo games were revealed but a whole bunch of third party games were. And Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition was shown off more. I like Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii and the remake for the Switch looks excellent. Its great that…

Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales is a role-playing game that heavily incorporates a revamped version of Gwent, the card game featured in the Witcher games. Originally released in 2018 on PC and consoles, Thronebreaker has now made its way to the Nintendo Switch! While it does incorporate the card game, Thronebreaker is much more than that. Featuring a 30+ hour campaign, the game plays very much like a typical isometric RPG. How will these juxtaposed styles mash into a game, and how will they play out on the Switch? Let's take a look and find out!

When I first played Tetris 99, I didn’t like it. It was multiplayer only and had no single player. Sure it was free, but thats pretty much all it had going for it. But recently I wanted a Tetris on my Switch and I knew that the game had paid DLC where you could get single player! So I decided to get the game and the DLC. What a great decision! Tetris 99 is a blast. The single player marathon…

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the first ever HD Animal Crossing game. There have been two portable AC games and two console ones. New Horizons is the first one to ever be both. Fans and newcomers alike have had high expectations for this game. So, does it live up to the hype? Here is our review-in-progress of Animal Crossing: New Horizons for the Nintendo Switch!

One more day until Animal Crossing New Horizons comes out. Well, for some people. Australia and Japan gamers already have it. Some people around the world have gotten the game early too. And tonight at midnight (11 my time), the digital release will be unlocked! But for many people, including myself, New Horizons is a day away. I am so hyped for Animal Crossing New Horizons! If you’re hyped too and you don’t mind “spoilers”, you can check out Abdallah’s…

Square Enix has released a demo of Trials of Mana for the Nintendo Switch (its also on the PS4). I played the demo on the Switch and now I have some thoughts on it! The Trials of Mana demo is packed with content. Players are allowed to pick from several characters to play as, plus they can have two companions. I have tried out two of the characters but haven’t finished their sections yet. Each character starts off in a…

Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase just aired! We have the video below and some thoughts on it too. This Indie World Showcase was a lot better than then the last one in my opinion. A lot of cool looking indie games were shown this time. Which ones did I like the best? For me, the biggest standout was Summer in Mara. It looked like a cross between the Legend of Zelda and the new Animal Crossing! I absolutely want to play…

There are only three more days until Animal Crossing New Horizons comes out! So what’s the latest news? How am I feeling about the game? Let’s talk about New Horizons some more! Yesterday, reviews came out for Animal Crossing New Horizons. I didn’t read any of them but people were posting the scores and they were pretty high. Gotta love those 10 out of 10s. The game really does look like it’ll be that good! More trailers have been released…

As a fan of the show by the same name, as well as a long time Mortal Kombat enthusiast, I could not wait to get started playing One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows. At first, it seemed like a match made in heaven. While some aspects of the game were more in-depth and impressive than I would have suspected, others were equally less impressive than I had hoped. Let’s dive right in and see what awaits us in One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows!
