New Releases
Biomotor Unitron ($7.99)
Effectively, right here’s a pleasant shock. SNK has one other NEOGEO Pocket Colour recreation for us at the moment. Biomotor Unitron was the primary RPG for SNK’s short-lived handheld, although I suppose by at the moment’s requirements we is likely to be tempted to name it a roguelite. You play as a pilot of a mech referred to as a Unitron and must crawl by way of dungeons battling monsters. Your pilot will achieve expertise, which brings sure upgrades, and you may as well get elements to your Unitron that can energy it up. Dungeons are procedurally-generated and the city is only a menu. Sadly, the commerce options aren’t accessible on this model, nevertheless it’s in any other case a good way to play a enjoyable recreation that instructions stupid-high costs on the aftermarket.
Arcade Archives Flipull ($7.99)
Ah, now right here’s a neat one. Flipull is a puzzle recreation that was initially launched within the arcade by Taito in 1989 and ultimately made its method to different platforms together with the Recreation Boy. That model is the one I’m most aware of. A few of you could know this recreation as Plotting. Anyway, what you must do is toss blocks with symbols on them to make matches, which appears easy sufficient however is definitely fairly difficult as you whittle the pile down. In the event you don’t do issues proper, you’ll find yourself with leftover blocks you possibly can’t take away. And that’s the sport. It’s great things, and Hamster has performed its traditional good work with this model.
Twin Blades of the Three Kingdoms ($14.99)
Based mostly on the Chinese language novel, that is an RPG with strategic turn-based battles. There are a couple of hundred and twenty generals in play, permitting you quite a lot of flexibility in the way you wish to compose your occasion. Apparently BUN BUN (Yasuaki Fujita) composed the music for this recreation, which is fairly cool. He was one of many composers for Mega Man 3, Closing Struggle 2, Breath of Hearth, and Punky Skunk. Anyway, it’s mainly a normal JRPG with barely tough visuals and a battle system much like video games like Shining Power or Hearth Emblem. May be a kind of quote-unquote hidden gems that the youngsters on the web TV like to speak about.
Pixel Recreation Maker Collection Kingdom Fighter ($13.99)
Are we eager about an indie preventing recreation with native multiplayer? Maybe. You get eight (initially, anyway) completely different characters to play on this one, every with their very own assaults and particular strikes. You may unlock extra characters and costumes by enjoying by way of the story mode. I haven’t been in a position to play this one, and I can’t appear to search out any impressions of it. I suppose preventing followers would possibly wish to take a punt on it given how little motion we’ve seen within the style of late, however accomplish that at your individual discretion.
Underland: The Climb ($3.99)
It is a direct sequel to Underland, which was an honest little puzzle platformer for the worth. And to nobody’s shock, that is additionally an honest little puzzle platformer for its worth. You get thirty new ranges to play by way of with some fascinating new puzzle concepts to stump you.
Sakura Succubus 5 ($9.99)
Wow, we’re at 5 of those now on Swap eh? I suppose folks actually don’t thoughts these edited variations. Anyway, it’s one other visible novel the place Hiroki provides one other lady or two to his harem. A princess! And her maid, oddly sufficient. There are some selections to make as you go that can decide how pleased of an ending you attain.
Beatus Creation Solitaire ($19.99)
So how does a easy Spider Solitaire recreation command a twenty-dollar worth? Effectively, you herald some licensed content material. Now, I’m not going to fake I’m something however essentially the most fundamental of VTuber followers. I like Inugami Korone, Nekomata Okayu, and Himemori Luna. If I really feel like some high quality gremlin, I would watch Amelia Watson. However I’ve by no means even heard of Beatus Creation, the VTuber characters which might be on the core of this recreation. Wanting it up, they have been apparently created by Inside System, the developer of the Darkish Witch video games. They don’t appear to be very talked-about, however hey, perhaps a few of you might be followers. So that you play Spider Solitaire, earn cash, use these cash to unlock Beatus Creation-themed stuff like stickers and and themes, and that’s concerning the dimension of it. The VTubers lend their voices to the sport, and also you do get some further puzzles to unravel on prime of the usual mode. Twenty bones, although? Hm.

There are additionally some boss battles in opposition to some individuals who might not admire Delight Parades, together with one significantly bigly-known political determine. Be warned that like the true factor, it is vitally vibrant and a bit flashy, and thus will not be secure for people who find themselves photosensitive.

You’re meant to do this Magic Eye factor to see a 3D image when you play. In the event you look actually arduous, you would possibly even see a sailboat.
