Nintendo Switch Game Reviews - Page 14
Coromon is a game filled with potential but past sinking sands and perplexing puzzles it starts to fall flat. The shake-ups do let Coromon stand on its own and create an enjoyable experience, but it could’ve evolved to be something a little more.

Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic II - The Sith Lords Switch Review
Much like Aspyr's port of the first game, this new Switch port of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 - The Sith Lords is perhaps the best way to play this RPG!

As a follow-up to a 2019 cult classic adventure game, this surprise sequel is full of heart and blows past expectations.

While not quite perfect, Sunbreak confidently brings all of Monster Hunter Rise's best ideas to the next level.

Although it is more than 25 years old, Live A Live delights with charming narratives, solid gameplay, and a well-remastered presentation.

Little Noah: Scion of Paradise Review
Cygames' roguelite action romp offers a compelling take on the genre, that's perfect for beginners to grit their teeth on.

Between an exceptionally well-written cast, a deeply satisfying combat system, and an amazing adventure that remarkably earns its very long run time, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is a JRPG masterpiece.

RPG Time: The Legend of Wright Review
RPG Time: The Legend of Wright is a game made by an aspiring designer who's currently a school-kid, or at least that’s the game’s premise. The focus of this game is largely on style, but it’s not entirely devoid of substance. It is however held back a little by some annoying controls and Kenta’s railroading.

For a game that places so much weight on its cast and writing , Digimon Survive struggles to engage with poor characterization and weak storytelling.

SD Gundam Battle Alliance Review
Artdink's first Gundam game in a decade is surprisingly a challenge as a purely solo experience, and playing with others may make this action RPG shine despite its handful of flaws.

Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness Review
Although it has some interesting ideas as a survival action RPG, Binary Star Falling into Darkness will primarily appeal to hardcore Made in Abyss fans and offer very little to newcomers.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero Review
Western fans of The Legend of Heroes can finally officially experience this amazing lynchpin entry of the series and how the Special Support Section came together!

Voice of Cards: The Beasts of Burden Review
Voice of Cards: The Beasts of Burden is an overall more streamlined experience than other entries. With the frequency of releases in the series compared to the number of improvements made, the cards are starting to wear a bit thin.

Despite its various shortcomings, The DioField Chronicle is a refreshing take on strategy RPGs with satisfying gameplay systems and bold narrative design.

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Review
Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes provides Fire Emblem: Three Houses fans with a compelling retelling of its story alongside its great cast of characters.

The Outbound Ghost is a bland and confusing game that is as boring as it is pretty.
by Bryan Vitale on 10 October, 2022
Batora: Lost Haven is a boring RPG with tedious dialogue and lackluster level design, saved only by adequate combat, respectable art, and a mercifully short runtime.
by Adam Vitale on 27 October, 2022
While Reborn is largely an excellent re-release of Tactics Ogre (again), many of its gameplay alterations give it new flaws that will have me making caveats in recommending it (again).
by Josh Torres on 14 November, 2022
Pentiment offers a thematically striking and ultimately optimistic experience that is as engaging as it is unique.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Review
Beneath all the jank and technical disaster, there's a Pokemon game that deserved better.
by James Galizio on 25 November, 2022
Astlibra Revision captures the perfect definition of a hidden gem. Its engrossing gameplay and narrative makes it an easy recommendation to fans of the 2D action RPG genre.

Front Mission 1st: Remake Review
Forever Entertainment's modern crack at a classic strategy RPG has its highs and lows, but I walk away from it feeling stoked for the Wanzer warfare remakes to come.

Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII Reunion Review
After almost 15 years, the story of Zack Fair has escaped the confines of its UMD prison and has emerged as one of Square Enix's best remaster offerings that new and old fans of Final Fantasy VII need to experience.
by Scott White on 06 December, 2022
Dragon Quest Treasures touts itself as a treasure-hunting RPG, though I’d safely say it fits into the action RPG and monster-collecting genre. While there are performance issues and lackluster bosses, I always treasure a game that encourages exploration and gives me plenty to do.
by Paige Chamberlain on 13 December, 2022
Despite a paper-thin narrative, shallow one-note characters, and a kitchen-sink approach to its many subsystems, Fire Emblem Engage is the best-looking 3D Fire Emblem title with excellent tactical gameplay.
