    Riverbond is just a very fun time, perfect for youngsters but oddly therapeutic for all of us grumpy old adults.

    Riverbond isn’t the most in-depth game on the Switch this year, nor is it the best looking. It does, however, boast an interesting art style, and its gameplay is simple yet engaging enough that almost anyone of any skill level can give it a good crack. There are plenty of unlockable skins and weapons to try out, and although there’s little incentive to replay once you’re done and dusted, it’s a decent way to spend a few hours during the quieter winter months.

    If Minecraft had a hammer, it'd crush Riverbond to the ground. Nah, it's only a joke, as it is fairly repetitive and easy, yet fun little title you can enjoy with up to 3 more friends, cooperatively. With lots of voxel explosions! Pretty...

    It might be a good first dungeon-crawler for a younger audience or a family that wants to play together, but this Riverbond ain’t wide enough for me to recommend it to you.

    If you’re yearning for a test of skill – or at least something that can’t be beaten by taping down the attack button and pushing forward – Riverbond is unlikely to fulfill your need for hacking and slashing.

    Unless score chasing is your thing, Riverbond offers nothing else after completing its nine worlds.

    Riverbond is an easy win for a clean, simple, and straightforward dungeon crawler for the whole family. It's not rocket surgery, but I thinkRiverbond is an easy win for a clean, simple, and straightforward dungeon crawler for the whole family. It's not rocket surgery, but I think that's why it's a great game to play with the kids. Easy to pickup and play a quick run through of a dungeon, then walk away happy and do something else.… Expand
