  • Moonlighter Switch Review - KILL, PLUNDER, SELL, REPEAT!
    Moonlighter has hit the Nintendo Switch and its a game of two halves - by day you are a bustling shop owner and by night you raid randomly generated dungeons to get loot. Interesting we know! But is it right for you and is it worth buying? We find out in this video review.
    You can buy a copy from Amazon here: amzn.to/2P7jN3b

    So the developer pretty much thought "what if you were playing Zelda, but the game was all about looting the dungeons and selling your stuff, instead of being a hero and rescuing a princess?".

    I've had this preordered since October 2nd and the physical release keeps getting delayed, at least here in the states. Just got another email from Best Buy, now it's November 9th. It's only available for ship to home, apparently BB stores won't be carrying it. Oh well with GCU and my reward certificate it was $22, and there's plenty to play in the meantime.
    Nice review as always.

    Game looks great. I love pixel art. Especially in platforming or turn based. But I might pass on this. I guess it wasn't what I was hoping it'd be. Oh well
    Also, can you review *Mercenaries Wings: The False Phoenix* ? I just discovered the game earlier today and played a demo of the previous one on my 3DS. The switch version looks way smoother and nicer and more detailed. And since this is a new Mercenaries game, I wanna know what it's like!
    Thank you :D
    I've also looked up the game review, but only trailers have shown up and just reviews for the Saga collection

    From all the things I've heard about the PC version, this seems a very fair score. I was hoping this was going to be a great game and something I'd play on the channel, but I think it'll be a more "for fun" game I play on the side once it goes on sale. It's a total shame that it never came out on day and date with the other systems, hopefully it'll do well and maybe we will see a sequel that'll improve on some of the more things that make is a little more meh than great.
