Whats up light readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for November sixteenth, 2023. It’s Thursday, and which means we’ve got a complete bunch of latest releases to have a look at. The massive gun for the week is coming tomorrow, in fact, however at this time isn’t any slouch in the case of high quality. After summarizing all of these, we’ve received some gross sales to have a look at. The lists of latest and expiring gross sales, to be precise. Let’s dive on in and see what we’ve received!
New Releases
Astlibra Revision ($24.99)
The extremely lauded action-RPG that was made by one particular person over the course of fourteen dang years makes its approach to the Swap absolutely intact. It contains a wild narrative, stable fight mechanics, a particularly satisfying development curve, and a ton of tough edges that may remind you there wasn’t a second pair of eyes on this sport in any respect. Whereas some would possibly take concern with that, I like occasional reminders that video games are made by people. I’ll be doing a evaluation of this one later, so I’ll maintain a few of my feedback till then. It’s good, although.
Yohane the Parhelion -Blaze within the Deep Blue- ($29.99)
Right here’s the newest Inti-Creates sport, and it’s a spin-off of Love Dwell! Sunshine. Play as Yohane on this Metroidvania-style journey, performed up within the traditional Inti-Creates style. Battle enemies, discover treasures, craft new objects, take care of some particular areas that change to procedural technology, and meet all types of characters from the anime. Simply as within the Gunvolt video games, you should use music to energy up your character for a short while while you want it. Our pal Mikhail will probably be doing a evaluation of this one, and I’m to listen to what he has to say about it.
There Is No Mild ($19.99)
I imply, I can see a lightweight proper there. There’s clearly at the very least one gentle. Perhaps extra! This can be a top-down action-RPG that pulls inspiration from Darkish Souls and its ilk. It’s very difficult, significantly because you don’t have a ton of choices in fight. Some good pixel artwork on show, and should you’re on the lookout for one thing that may maintain you over for a whilst you’ll admire the twenty-plus hour size. Evaluations on different platforms are comparatively good, however that is one other a type of video games the place it’s essential to know what you’re moving into before you purchase it.
Low Story ($7.99)
Some indie efforts actually present their humble roots, and that is a type of. It’s a 2.5D motion sport that takes you thru six phases set in some very darkish areas. You mainly must blast something that strikes, remedy some very gentle puzzles, and sort out some nasty bosses. There are some secrets and techniques you could find within the ranges, and three completely different endings to uncover. It’s actually tough across the edges, however I believe it’s sort of priced on the level the place you most likely anticipate that in a polygonal sport. An earnest effort, on the very least.
Till The Final Bullet ($9.99)
I suppose Perpetually Leisure is placing its expertise from remaking The Home of the Useless to make use of. This can be a rail shooter with loads of FMV sprinkled all through, and it actually has a glance of its personal. There’s a corny story in regards to the human race being mysteriously mutated, and also you play as one of many final survivors. The woman he’s crushing on heads into some type ruined manufacturing facility by herself, which feels extraordinarily ill-advised. The hero of the story heads in to seek out her and convey her again. You’ll be able to play alone or pull in a pal for some native co-op. I’m certain it should all end up fantastic.
Jail Metropolis ($16.99)
Oh, I sort of like this one. It has that crunchy Natsume NES feeling to it, and I’ve to imagine it’s a really deliberate homage to issues like Shatterhand and Energy Blade. Battle by way of a whole metropolis that appears out to place a cease to you, blasting and chakramming your means throughout eight areas. Evaluations of the Steam model are reasonably constructive, and I believe so long as you already know what you’re signing up for, you’ll be glad. Which is to say, an NES-hard platformer. You want these, proper?
On Rusty Trails ($14.99)
A precision platformer the place the principle gimmick is your means to alter your look between two colours, which may also change the way you work together with the environments. Should you don’t have the fitting look, all types of issues gained’t work and plenty of traps will activate. We’ve seen this type of mechanic earlier than, even inside the platformer style, however it’s attention-grabbing sufficient that I gained’t say something towards it. Other than that, there appears to be some try at telling a narrative right here. And that appears to be it, however it’s sufficient for the sport to have gotten a really stable reception on different platforms. One other one for the speed-running followers, by the appears to be like of it.
The Delusion Seekers 2: The Sunken Metropolis ($14.99)
Right here is the newest Artifex Mundi hidden object journey, and common readers will know that I’ve kind of run out of issues to say about these. The amusing factor about this one is that the titular sunken metropolis is definitely Ys, the legendary metropolis that served as the premise of the favored Nihon Falcom action-RPG franchise. This sport performs it just a little nearer to the precise story, which sees Ys as an Atlantis-style metropolis beneath the deep. You must remedy the thriller earlier than Ys submerges and destroys Paris. Undecided if Dogi is on this one or not.
Smoots Pinball ($5.99)
Simply talking personally, I don’t actually perceive the necessity for this type of factor when we’ve got Pinball FX, Zaccaria Pinball, and even Pinball Arcade on the Swap. You’re much better off shopping for a desk or two from the parents who specialize on this type of factor. However should you actually love the Smoots, here’s a pack of 5 tables primarily based on them. The fee per desk is favorable, if nothing else.
Dream City Island ($12.00)
Kairosoft’s newest simulation sport isn’t precisely taking any dangers. It’s a city builder the place the principle gimmick is that it’s set on an island. However since most Kairosoft city builders restrict the scale of your metropolis anyway, there isn’t a lot of a distinction with this location. So what it actually comes right down to is should you’re up for one more simple Kairosoft metropolis sim, and if you wish to play it right here reasonably than in a extra reasonably priced kind in your cell gadget. I’ll depart that as much as you.
Arcade Archives Dino Rex ($7.99)
There’s no two methods about it: Taito’s Dino Rex is a horrible, dreadful sport. It’s a one-on-one fighter that includes dinosaurs, and whereas that ought to be an ideal idea, this sport simply goes in a really odd course with its mechanics. As a part of the Taito Milestones 2 assortment it’s an amusing curio, however I can’t suggest this standalone model to anybody. I imply, except you want weirdly unhealthy video games or are hungry for any slice of Rastan lore you will get your arms on. Wherein case… chances are you’ll proceed. However don’t say I didn’t warn you!
Tobari Dream Ocean ($14.99)
Discover the Dream Ocean on this motion platformer. You wield a particular employees that you should use to beat up the enemies you come throughout, and may use greater than thirty forms of magic in case you want some selection. These completely different spells lend a little bit of a puzzle high quality to the sport at occasions, and also you’ll must make intelligent use of them to traverse the ocean and discover some enjoyable secrets and techniques. The presentation isn’t very fancy, however it looks like a stable sufficient instance of the style, mechanically talking.
Hodgepodge Hunt ($4.99)
Reasonably oddly, that is Amongst Us however with cooking. You’ll be able to play alone, however optimally you’re going to be becoming a member of a four-player sport on-line. One particular person is the Spy, and the others are the Employees. The Employees’s job is to make a scrumptious hot-pot by discovering numerous substances and including them, whereas the Spy’s job is sneak some unhealthy substances in there to show the hot-pot right into a hodgepodge. Employees can vote to ban different gamers, stopping them from including any new substances to the pot. Properly, you most likely received the purpose with the primary sentence of this description.
Cats on Streets ($3.99)
Discover the cats on the images of the streets of varied cities. There are fourteen photos in whole and greater than 300 and fifty cats to seek out. Not far more to say about it, however I suppose if you would like one thing that doesn’t take quite a lot of vitality to play, there are worse methods to spend 4 bucks.
Fortress Invasion: Throne Out ($6.99)
That is borderline Bin Bunch, however it’s a first-time-on-Swap writer so I’m giving them a brief line of credit score right here. It’s a really fundamental citadel protection sport with fifty ranges. Improve your character as you go with the intention to deal with the more and more powerful hordes of monsters and different attackers. Nothing fancy about it.
