Review: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Complete Edition (Switch 2) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Switch 2 bringing Nintendo up to par with the other latest-gen consoles has also brought many previously inaccessible games to Nintendo players. A fairly recent example of this is Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Complete Edition. And although it has its strengths, it also illustrates that not all games are ported equally. Developed by Team Ninja, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty was originally released for PC and consoles in 2023. It’s set in a fantasy version of the Later Han Dynasty in 184 AD China, a perf
Review: Heave Ho 2 (Switch 2) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Playing Heave Ho 2 is akin to moving a sofa via the stairwell. But in this case, the whole point is to turn the frustration of getting from here to there into a co-op party game. Whether it succeeds depends upon the dependability of your fellow movers. In Heave Ho 2, you and up to three others (local or online) control candy-like blobs with long arms. You control both arms in much the same way your brain controls both legs when you’re drunk; movement is wobbly and imprecise, so doing something a
Review: Disgaea Mayhem (Switch 2) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“The Legend of Zelda got a musou-style game. Fire Emblem did. Why not Disgaea?” I imagine that was the entire reasoning for Disgaea Mayhem, a hack-and-slash action RPG featuring the visual style, numerous game elements, and general vibe of the typically turn-based Disgaea series. As a sales pitch, it works. In practice, less so. Anyone who’s played a Disgaea game will be immediately comfortable with Mayhem’s appearance. It certainly looks the part, and the immediately whimsical approach adds a l
Village In the Shade demo bullet point impressions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s an accepted truth that not all games worth considering are covered in a Nintendo Direct. Such is the case with Village In the Shade, a farming sim coming to Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 from Nippon Ichi on October 27th. The timing is appropriate, because whereas it looks to be a cozy game during the daytime, NIS America warns you may not want to check who’s knocking on your door at night. A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to participate in an online demo of Village In the Shade. And as
Review: Brigandine Abyss (Switch 2) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Are you ready to sit at the adult table? Because Brigandine Abyss has an open chair for you. And although you’ll be expected to carry yourself with the proper turn-based tactics etiquette, you’ll find the setting is more welcoming than it has been in the past. If you’re not familiar with the Brigandine series, it offers the type of tactical/strategy RPG gameplay that appeals to those content to spend hours poring over game boards and pewter playing pieces. It’s for the Risk players who actually
