    Puzzle Bobble Everybubble! is a cute and addictive game that respects the franchise's formula by offering plenty of levels and multiplayer fun. However, we feel that its full potential is not fulfilled due to the lack of diversity in game modes.

    While DNF Duel Who's Next is a good fighting game, it's not the best you'll find on Nintendo Switch. If you're a fan of the franchise it's based on, or are looking for a slightly different experience to the other games in the genre available on the platform, it can be a good option. However, its somewhat poor online mode relegates competitive play to versions of the game only for other platforms.

    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is much more than the sequel to Breath of the Wild. It is a perfect adventure game, with innovative mechanics, an exciting story and secrets around every corner. With this installment, the world of Hyrule is much larger than ever before, both in density and vertical exploration. In every little detail, you can feel all the work and care that Nintendo has put into this game over the years, because it is simply magical. Undoubtedly, we are facing the best Nintendo Switch game, and we don't think any other will be able to top it. A true masterpiece.

    There are many good ideas in Minabo, so we regret a little that the execution of some of them are not that good. All in all, it's still a good job by Devilish Games, a team that you can tell has put all its efforts into creating an experience that, while we don't think is made to be enjoyed for everyone, does provide an interesting metaphor for representing our own lives.

    Have a Nice Death is a very fun and dynamic game, although with some performance problems on Switch. As a roguelike, it doesn't stand out from other games in the genre like Hades or Hollow Knight. However, if you're looking for a challenging action platformer title with a lighthearted tone, it's a good choice.

    Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection is a splendid update of six classic Japanese RPGs, now on Nintendo Switch. High-definition graphics, widescreen support, a superbly orchestrated soundtrack and a gallery full of extras make this collection a must-have for any lover of the franchise who wants to revisit or discover these games for the first time.

    Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp is the best option to enjoy two strategy classics, renewed with improved graphics and an online mode to play with friends from all over the world. Despite the improvements, we are still faced with niche games that feel somewhat repetitive, but that fans of the series will accept with open arms while waiting for an unlikely new original installment of the series.

    If what you are looking for is a story with adventure and intrigue and not focused exclusively on romantic relationships, Norn9: Var Commons is a safe bet. This game balances a well-narrated plot with protagonists that are hard not to get attached to.

    This compilation of all Mega Man Battle Network games has many improvements and new features that have made us appreciate these games again. A large gallery full of interesting material and the incorporation of online give a new life to games that are far from perfect, but were very relevant in the era of the Game Boy Advance.

    Curse of the Sea Rats is a good metroidvania game. Playing it solo is quite challenging, and playing it with up to three other friends in local mode is fun. While it's not a perfect game, it left us with a good taste thanks to a very original art style complemented by a somewhat basic but decent gameplay.

    We found Meg's Monster to be a short but beautiful experience. Its emotional story with plot twists, its fun combat and its art style and soundtrack are remarkable, and make the game worthwhile despite being a short and quite simple title.

    Mato Anomalies is a role-playing game that dares to innovate in things that sometimes work well, and sometimes not. With a very interesting mix of genres that gives rise to turn-based combat and card duels, its story and setting are very interesting. However, the repetitive combat and simple dungeon design may not appeal to all players.

    The world of Oddworld returns with all the charisma of its characters and story. However, it does so with many performance problems and lacks attention to detail, with multiple audiovisual problems, which tarnish the whole experience.

    Amnesia: Memories is a classic. It has earned a deserved position among the oldest games. This game can be a good first contact with the genre, as it is a title with a decent story and a good number of routes.

    Returning to the world of Rakuen on Nintendo Switch has delighted us. Rarely in video games have we seen such an emotional story with such a great soundtrack. While it all depends on whether you connect with its premise, additions like Mr. Saitou or Laura Shigihara's short films are enough for us to recommend you to relive this exciting adventure.

    Atelier Ryza 3 is the best game in the series to date. An outstanding instalment that brings the most successful trilogy of the Atelier series to a close with a highly versatile, entertaining and emotional adventure. We have seen these characters grow over the years, and this adventure is the perfect moment to say goodbye to them. If you're a fan of the series, you have to give it a try.

    Dredge is a game that proposes a peculiar but well implemented mix that keeps you hooked thanks to its puzzles and dark aesthetics. It knows how to keep you hooked, but in the end it can get a bit repetitive.

    Peppa Pig: World Adventures is an ideal game for the youngest players, being very accessible and taking us to different parts of the world. However, its very short length and numerous loading screens make it difficult to recommend it to anyone who is not a big fan of the popular cartoon series.

    We found Little Witch Nobeta to be a simple but fun game. Its gameplay is engaging and its progression system is very good. However, the lack of enemy variety beyond the bosses and the lack of support for the Nintendo Switch's gyroscope are some of its weaknesses.

    Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is a must-play for fans of the franchise, as it's the only game they probably haven't had a chance to try yet. However, if you're not a die-hard fan of the series, there are other, better survival horror games on Nintendo Switch. While this game has been updated with some interesting additions, the end result has weaknesses that we can't help but notice, such as too many annoying loading screens. All in all, it's still a very interesting game and a decent instalment in the Fatal Frame franchise.

    Bayonetta Origins manages to stray from some elements of its core franchise to create a beautiful adventure in the form of a macabre but captivating fairy tale. With diverse puzzles and gorgeous visuals, Cereza and Chesire have made their way into our hearts with an unforgettable story full of nods to the legacy of the Umbra Witch.

    Ib
    Ib was already a must-have classic for fans of RPG Maker games. However, thanks to this new version for Nintendo Switch it becomes an even better title. The remastering of its graphics to high definition, its new content and the addition of more languages make it a much more accessible gem for the enjoyment of new players. If you enjoy short but scary adventures full of puzzles and charismatic characters, you better give Ib a chance as soon as possible.

    Figment 2: Creed Valley is a dreamlike game that provides a good adventure full of puzzles and musical numbers. Its length is just right, its local co-op mode is fun and its design has surprised us with a lot of different mechanics. Although its combat system may be too simple and its performance on Nintendo Switch is not very good, this is a game made with a lot of heart that is definitely worth it.

    Paranormasight is a very original and charming experience that blends horror and suspense to perfection. As a visual novel, it is more than remarkable despite certain stretches where it can become a bit obtuse due to its peculiar structure. However, it's a game that fans of horror visual novels and shocking plot twists will love.

    Its revamped visuals, new mini-games and features, and a new great epilogue starring Magolor make Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe a very worthwhile game. If only it included online play with friends, it would be the perfect Kirby game.

    Octopath Traveler II corrects all the flaws of its predecessor to become not only an exemplary sequel, but also one of the best RPGs in the Nintendo Switch catalog. Its stories are mature and deep, its gameplay remains classic and challenging, and its graphics and soundtrack are still outstanding. A great victory for all fans of conventional RPGs.

    Tales of Symphonia Remastered remains the legendary Japanese role-playing game it was from the beginning. Thus, it is an outstanding work with an edition that hardly brings anything new to the table except its availability on modern consoles. If you have not been able to play this game so far, this is a good opportunity to do so, but if you have already done it and remember it well, there are not too many reasons to return once again to the adventure.

    Blanc is a very cute game with a message about love and accepting each other's differences. Being an ideal title to play with a friend, it is not at all complex, which allows any type of player to enjoy it. Precisely this lack of complexity, together with a short length, can be a negative point for many players. However, it is still a good cooperative experience that is worth trying.

    Theatrhythm Final Bar Line has enchanted us. It's not only the biggest celebration to date of music not only from Final Fantasy, but from Square Enix in video game form. But also one of the most complete, deep and full of unlockables rhythm games you can find on Nintendo Switch. Despite some shortcomings, it is still a gem for rhythm game lovers that we recommend you not to miss.

    Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is one of the best games Nippon Ichi Software has ever made, but also one of the most dense and complex. As we have progressed through its plot we have learned lots of new mechanics and secrets have been revealed that have left us pleasantly surprised with what this game truly has to offer.
