In the year 2021, who would have imagined that a quirky video game about moving into a new home could result in one of the most cathartic pieces of interactive entertainment of the year? Unpacking delivers exactly what you'd expect from a video game about unloading boxes of personal possessions, and yet the game is more than just zen-like tranquili...
A great game is fun the moment you load it up, but a groundbreaking title manages to provide entertainment value that survives and thrives for decades after it was first released. Quake is one of those rare games which is still just as much fun to play as it was 25 years ago, and on the Nintendo Switch, that action-packed romp across hostile territ...
Capcom's Monster Hunter franchise is no stranger to Nintendo consoles, but arguably the best game in the entire series is one that Switch owners had to watch from the sidelines--or satisfy their cravings with 3DS port Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate--as Xbox, PC, and PlayStation owners had a wild time with Monster Hunter World. Thankfully, Capc...
Metroid games always have their work cut out for them whenever they arrive, as Nintendo's cosmic franchise has to balance nostalgia, evolution, and refinement of its classic formula all at the same time. Metroid Dread is a triumphant return to form then for bounty hunter Samus Aran, an intense and enjoyable platformer that mixes precision action wi...
Overcooked! All You Can Eat is a game that feels like it was designed to end friendships. It's a tense multiplayer game about the joy of cooking, and it makes superb use of the Switch's portable nature for impromptu rounds of kitchen nightmares. There's no Gordon Ramsay present, but once chaos hits the fan, everyone's going to be swearing like a sa...
One of the biggest indie game success stories of the early 2010s, Fez is as wonderfully charming today as it was almost a decade ago. A joyful platformer that mixes 2D worlds with reality-warping manipulation of the third dimension, Fez quite literally added a new perspective to a classic genre of video games when it first arrived. On the Switch, t...
Dusk may look like a first-person shooter with outdated graphics, but beneath the visual homage to action games of a bygone era lies a game that builds on that foundation with clever design and pure passion. A high-energy blast of fun that delights in throwing players straight into a meat grinder of bloody violence, Dusk's spooky collection of leve...
The Wii U may have been one of Nintendo's least-popular consoles, but it was home to some memorable games. Thanks to the Switch, many of those gems have received a well-deserved second chance, and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is proof of just how timeless a great Mario game can be. While Nintendo could have easily slapped on some updated gr...
Tetris in its most basic form is a game with universal appeal. Stacking rows of Tetriminos, clearing lines, and facing a steadily-escalating challenge makes for a deceptively deep game to dive into, but also a formula that has managed to remain relevant for decades since the first game was released in 1984. How do you improve on that concept? By ma...
While it may be surprising to see The House in Fata Morgana as the top-rated Switch game of 2021, it's probably no surprise to those who have played it. This visual novel deftly weaves a gothic horror story with sumptuous visuals, gripping writing, and haunting music. If you're looking for an interactive story to lose yourself in, The House in Fata...
