After putting it through the ringer, we are ready to answer that question and more. Let’s dive in!

Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age Definitive Edition has finally arrived on the Nintendo Switch! The Playstation 4 version came out last year. I figured we’d have to wait much longer for the Switch take, thankfully I was wrong. Was Dragon Quest 11 S worth the wait? Here is my review of Dragon Quest 11 for the Nintendo Switch! Note: For even more information on the 3D mode: check out Adam Roffel’s review-in-progress articles of the Playstation…

Divinity Original Sin 2 is one of the better top-down RPG experiences I’ve ever played, but unless you have a desire to log over a 100 hours into it, you might want to skip this one. If you want fantastic value for your money, Divinity Original Sin 2 is what you want to invest in! Like with the first game, the second mold the characters through the quests – more depth is worked into the everyday questing than is done…

The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening is the latest installment of one of Nintendo’s oldest and most successful franchises. Based on the 1993 game of the same name, this remaster will be available on Nintendo Switch tomorrow! The question remains: is this remaster a glow-up that’s worth the purchase or is it a blow-up that’s worth the pass? Let's find out!

Daemon X Machina, the mech-shooter developed by MARVELOUS!, is set to release on Nintendo Switch this Friday, September 13th. Daemon X Machina puts you in the driver’s seat of the awesome battle-mechs called ‘Arsenals’ – which, if we’re being honest, look like something straight out of the Gundam universe – and pits you against the overwhelming number of AI controlled tanks and other vehicles that you must prevent from taking over the world. While not the most original storyline, any robot fighting game is worth taking a closer look it. Let’s dive right in!

Friday the 13th The Game is a nostalgic throwback to the narratives of the Friday the 13th movie series set at Camp Crystal Lake that captures the essence of the movies and the genre. In this 1 v 7 multiplayer game, players play as one of the different versions of the killer, Jason Vorhees, from the Friday the 13th movies. Players can also opt to be one of up to camp counselors representing the classic horror movie tropes trying to…

Earlier this year, we reviewed Fell Seal: Arbiter’s Mark for the PS4, and now that it has been released on for the Nintendo Switch, we decided to check it out there as well. While tactical RPGs certainly aren’t for everyone, they do carve out a spot for themselves in today’s ultra-competitive gaming market, and that is no small feat. With the original release receiving mixed reviews, how does the Switch version fare? Let’s dive right in and find out!

The latest Nintendo Switch controller from PDP, the Faceoff Deluxe+ wired controller is the first Switch controller ever to come with built-in audio. This is a core feature for most other console controllers and it is exciting to see accessories for the Switch starting to follow suit. Other than the introduction of built-in audio, the new Faceoff Deluxe+ also comes with a few changes and improvements over the previous iteration. How does this new controller compare to other third-party accessories? Let's take a look!

I’m generally not a huge fan of stealth games because I find the gameplay too slow for my liking. But if a game promises to be short – like this one does at 1.5 hours per play through – I can deal with stealth mechanics, and even enjoy them from time to time. Playing through The Church in the Darkness has been a phenomenal experience, and despite some glaring issues, there is a lot to really like. The Church in…

Fire Emblem: Three Houses is a modern blend of blend of previous Fire Emblem games that is likely to please fans, old or new. For those who are not familiar with the Fire Emblem franchise, the games have gone from intensely combat-focused to a veritable romance sim. In Three Houses you play a professor at an academy for young knights, which provides the perfect setting to find the balance between the combat and social aspects of the game. While those seeking a pure fighting game (or purely social game) will have to make some compromise to get the most out of ...
