Fury Unleashed - Switch Review (Quick)

When it comes to action-packed, 2D shoot-em-ups, I tend to approach them with a touch of caution, given that the genre is oversaturated with janky replicas failing to reach the heights of Enter the Gungeon or Gunbird. Luckily, Fury Unleashed does a decent job of fulfilling its run-and-gun quota. Good

Ultra Hat Dimension - Switch Review (Quick)

I really wanted to like this game. The first few levels of Ultra Hat Dimension gave me hope that I would have fun with it. The object of the game is to disguise the witchy protagonist with various hats in order to sneak past robots who also wear hats. The

Superliminal - Switch Review (Quick)

“Perception is reality.” From the get-go, that mind-bending phrase lingers, as you manipulate the size of chess pieces simply by altering how far away they are, truly impacting their physical nature. It’s a concept so simple and yet so intriguing, making interactions with the smallest details of Superliminal’s

Super Holobunnies: Pause Cafe - Switch Review (Quick)

The opening screen gave me hope that this game would be good. It’s pixelated bunnies with a sci-fi twist, how could it not be awesome? Sadly the title screen was nearly as good as it got for Super Holobunnies, as ⅔ of the game’s content is utterly dreadful and
