There are a few different modes to play, along with online leaderboards so you can compete with the scores of your friends. Blast your way through tons of zombies and other monsters using a massive arsenal of weapons, meeting odd characters and completing side missions along the way. Splatter – Zombiecalypse Now ($7.99)Īh, it’s top-down shooter time again, eh? This one has sixteen levels and folks seem to have been rather keen on it on other platforms. It’s a dirty job, and apparently some frog’s got to do it. Recover the forty Frog Souls as you make your way through four different world types.

Take a relatively normal 2D puzzle-platformer with a time manipulation mechanic, skew the viewing angle a little, and you’ve got A Frog’s Job. For those who don’t have an immediate hunch as to whether or not they want it, I’ll have a review ready for you early next week. Its clever dream-hopping premise kicks off a game that is extremely familiar in the mechanical sense, and I believe that is either going to sell you on it or drive you away. Endless Memories ($19.99)Īt last, a dark indie Metroidvania with Souls-like elements! One with massive maps to explore that will take you at least a dozen hours to explore! And… randomized loot! Okay, yes, we have rather a lot of games like Endless Memories already. Not my kind of thing, but it’s neat to see it here if only for completion’s sake. Mechanically it doesn’t do much that you won’t have seen in other games of this sort, but it plays fine enough if you like this genre. Note that despite the title, it’s mostly an original tale. The developer has dug into its back catalog and pulled out this hidden object adventure that, I think, represents its first attempt at a game featuring the famous detective. Sherlock Holmes and The Hound of the Baskervilles ($12.99)įrogwares has made some very cool Sherlock Holmes games, but they weren’t always fancy 3D affairs. Still, if a Switch is all you’ve got and you love this series, this is much better than nothing.

I’ll be reviewing these but at this stage I am inclined to point you towards the PC releases if only because they can be modded with a better script prepared by fans. The bad news: the localization in these two games isn’t up to the standards of other releases, and indeed is kind of bland and charmless in a way that doesn’t do justice to the original script. The connective tissue between these stories and, say, Steins Gate is indeed quite loose, but it’s good to finally be caught up.

The good news: this gets the first and fourth entries in the Science Adventure series of visual novels out there officially in English for the first time. I’m hoping to be able to do a review for this one, but we’ll see how things shake out. By most accounts, this is a very good one of these, so if you enjoy games like DOOM, Quake, or Duke Nukem 3D, you will likely find plenty to like here. It has a cool single-player campaign as well as some multiplayer modes you can enjoy online. So let’s call this a classic-style first-person shooter.

I had gotten used to calling this kind of thing a boomer shooter, but I guess some people don’t care for that term now. This Switch version lacks the multiplayer features that can be found in the other versions these days, but you can still have a really good time just exploring and seeing what odd stuff you can come across. You can travel through space, you can land on the planets, and you can play it in a variety of ways. It’s a space exploration/survival game with an infinite procedurally-generated universe. This feels like one of those games that really doesn’t need much of an introduction, but let’s try. You have to be a subscriber to the Expansion Pack to get at it of course. I’m reasonably sure this is the first time this game has ever seen a rerelease, so that’s pretty cool. In case you don’t have time to watch it (but you should, because it’s kind of amusing), Pilotwings 64 will be hitting the service next week on October 13th. Nintendo has released a trailer announcing the date of the next release for the Nintendo 64 app, included in the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack.
