![]() ![]() It feels somewhat inspired by Konami’s Yie Ar Kung Fu and of course Data East’s Karate Champ. This time it’s Taito’s 1985 fighting game Typhoon Gal. Arcade Archives Typhoon Gal ($7.99)Īfter a week of Pac-Man and Xevious, Hamster is getting back to the deep pulls. With solid puzzle design, a unique look, and plenty of stuff to enjoy, Bonfire Peaks is a great title that puzzler fans should give heavy consideration. You’ll have to do a whole lot of block manipulation and careful navigation through each environment, as it’s rare as simply as going from point A to point B. You have to make your way through more than two hundred puzzles, carrying a specific box to a bonfire to light it up. This is a puzzle game with an intriguing voxel style by Corey Martin of Pipe Push Paradise fame and the folks at Draknek. Gosh, Draknek sure is making a big splash on Switch these days. I’ll have my review right around then, too. There are a few rough edges in this launch version, but a big patch is on the way early next week. With a huge assortment of real vehicles, licensed stuff like the Batmobile, and Hot Wheels originals, there are a lot of neat vehicles to track down and race. But it’s in the collecting aspect that this game shows its real strength. It’s drift-heavy and carries itself well. In terms of weight, the cars really do feel like toys, giving the racing a particular feel of its own. It features 68 cars based on the toys that you can collect and race on tons of tracks in five different environments. Wait, it’s a good Hot Wheels game? What the heck? Yes, I can actually say that this is a pretty solid racer that has a very distinct Hot Wheels flavor to it. I’ll have a review of this one once I can put some time into it. You get the game plus both of its DLCs in this package. You play as Fury as she tries to hunt down and dispose of the Seven Deadly Sins in this hack-and-slash action-adventure. Assuming the developers have pulled it off however, this release finally completes the Darksiders saga so far on the Switch. This game had a lot of technical issues on more powerful systems than the Switch, so this could be rough. I am saying this because I have to play Darksiders III‘s Switch version before I can recommend it. I will once again remind readers that I use the highlight to point out games of interest, and it’s not necessarily an endorsement. Your choices will determine the ending you reach in this stylish top-down action-adventure game. You can save other Automatons or drain them of their Anima to give yourself more time. The more time you waste, the more NPCs will become Unsighted and be lost. That’s the gimmick of this game, by the way. Alma must battle against the clock before she joins her brethren, making her way through a world full of danger. Those who don’t have enough Anima become mindless killing machines called Unsighted. The androids rely on a resource called Anima to give them sentience, and the supply is running low. Unsighted ($19.99)Ī deadly war between humanity and a race of mechanical Automatons has left the world in ruin. I’ll have a review of this one soon but if you like the sound of what I’ve described, you’ll probably enjoy Death’s Gambit. There’s plenty of non-linear exploration, alternate endings, crafting, a New Game+ mode, a super-tough Heroic mode, and a whole lot more. There are seven different character classes to choose from, each with a ton of skills and abilities to unlock and use. ![]() As Death’s new right-hand, you’ll travel through twenty areas defeating the challenging Guardians you find along the way. Let’s get our hands dirty! New Releases Death’s Gambit: Afterlife ($19.99)ĭeath’s Gambit has been one of the more well-liked 2D Soulslike games since its release a few years back, and the Afterlife update made a good thing even better. ![]() Even with all of those games to talk about, I’ve still managed to get the lists of new and expiring sales together. Lots of interesting titles, including Death’s Gambit: Afterlife, Hot Wheels Unleashed, Unsighted, Darksiders III, Bonfire Peaks, some Cotton games, and many more.
