Detective Lazarus Bundy has seen better days, but he’s looking to revive his career by investigating the disappearance of a woman of some note. It reminds me a bit of things like Broken Sword, and that’s a good place to be. The Hand of Glory ($18.99)Ī rather decent point-and-click style adventure game, this is. There are a few different modes of play, and the new DX features means that if you were a fan of this in its original form you should find some fresh stuff to mess with here.

You can grab a power-up that slows down time and helps you rack up cash and your score, and learning when to use it and how to chain it is the key to survival and a higher score. This particular game is an endless side-scrolling shoot-em-up that gets faster with each loop, eventually becoming absolutely bonkers to stay on top of. This one comes from Mommys Best Games, and their stuff has a certain style to it that you’re either going to really get into or bounce off of hard. I don’t know, maybe it plays better than it looks. There is local co-op multiplayer play, so I suppose that’s something. The action-platforming is broken up with the occasional shoot-em-up bits, too. Slow-ish? Awkward? It’s got something of a microcomputer vibe to how it moves. When I see a title with words like ‘wind’ and ‘shuriken’, I imagine something speedy and graceful. If it were under ten bucks I could probably recommend it to arcade action fans, but at twenty I think there needs to be a bit more meat on the bones. So, this game is a little fun at first but it’s about as deep as a puddle, and not one of those weird extremely deep puddles you see sometimes. But I like your “Blue Skies" energy and I certainly don’t mind a bit of casual dogfighting, so I’m going to try to move past that. Okay, Skycadia, this is a “me" problem, and I should probably be over this after a couple of decades, but your name reminds me of SEGA’s Skies of Arcadia and how it hasn’t had a sequel or been re-released since the GameCube era. This will probably offer similar enjoyment. Look, the important thing to know is that this is the follow-up to Roombo, which was a silly, violent good time. Dusty has to, and I quote, “hack, hide, and suck his way to freedom", a mission which apparently entails devouring your foes and sucking their blood to gain new abilities. This feels like an over-stuffed premise, but okay.

Dusty’s actions were apparently a bit much, and he ends up in an altercation with the Warranty Squad of Famil圜orp, which culminates in him getting zapped into the TV dimension.

Anyway, back in the game Roombo: First Blood, some burglars broke into the McClean family house, and robot vacuum Dusty, er, took care of them. Oh, because you play as a heroic robot vacuum cleaner. There are multiple endings, and I’d imagine at least one of them lets you see the light of dawn. Souls of the dead and killer janitors stalk you, and all you can do is run and hide as you solve puzzles and try to survive the night. This is a Korean survival-horror game where you get trapped overnight in a haunted school. It then got some enhanced ports to other platforms, and now it’s time for the Switch’s turn. I remember when this debuted on iOS some six years ago. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School ($29.99)Īh, that’s nostalgic. You’ll have to bust your butt if you want to see the end of this game. There are seven bosses to take down, after which you’ll take on the final boss. All of the action moves to the beat, and there are plenty of random elements to earn it that roguelite badge. You play as a Valkyrie and need to battle forces of the underworld. Let’s get to the good stuff! New Releases BPM: Bullets Per Minute ($24.99)Ī rhythm game crossed with a first-person shooter crossed with a roguelite, BPM is a slick game that you’ll either love or hate. Beyond that, we’ve got the usual lists of new and outgoing sales for you to ponder over. Yes, the headline game of the week is hitting tomorrow, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some other interesting games to look at. It’s Thursday, and that means we’ve got a lot of new releases to check out. Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for September 8th, 2022.
