Review by Matt S. Circle Entertainment is prolific on the Nintendo Switch, and that’s an understatement. From rather enjoyable grand strategy titles through to lovely artsy nature romps and some genuinely brilliant rhythm games, the publisher has come a long way from when it was churning out the most detestable…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. One of the few things that Overcooked 2 has with cooking in real life is that both activities are far more enjoyable with friends – and the additions made by Ghost Town Games in its manic kitchen simulator’s sequel will be sure to have you and…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The developer of Salt & Sanctuary got very lucky. The Dark Souls remaster was meant to be the first Dark Souls-like game on Nintendo Switch, but with that apparently stuck in limbo, Salt & Sanctuary gets to be first to the table instead. It’ll probably do…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Crush Your Enemies is yet another effort at giving the Nintendo Switch a simplified “casual” strategy experience, just in case the recently-released Mushroom Wars 2 and Element weren’t enough for you.

Read MoreReview by Ginny W. As the Banner Saga draws to its fateful conclusion, what was previously a death march now feels like a funeral procession. The team behind it has risen to unexpected heights in the wake of the success of the trilogy’s first two titles. There’s always been a…
Read MoreReview by Priscilla M. Cosmic Star Heroine was on my radar since the initial Kickstarter in 2013, but it was not until the Switch port that I was given a chance to experience the galactic wonder for myself. Cosmic Star Heroine is touted as a game for fans of JRPGs…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. It’s almost impossible to find good quality information about the Middle East out here in the west. Whether it’s a look at the historical context of the Middle East, or a contemporary view of the volatile region, it’s nearly impossible to break through propaganda and ideology…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Code of Princess was one of the first downloadable titles released on the Nintendo 3DS, released right back in 2013. I wasn’t actually a big fan of it. It’s been quite some time since I played it, but while I don’t remember the specifics, I do…
