Coming completely out of nowhere, Limited Run Games have unearthed this abomination to gaming for everyone to enjoy on modern platforms! Available now on just about everything, we're going to be taking a look at the Switch release of Plumbers Don't Wear Ties Definitive Edition today to see if this is a piece of gaming history you'll want to add to your collection, or if it's best left to rot on a long-forgotten console. This one is going to be a bit weird, so be sure to strap yourselves in extra tight. Let's get into it!

Fans of arcade style racing games have cause to rejoice as QUByte Interactive is bringing us another awesome retro game collection in the form of Top Racer Collection!

They're all presented in their best forms, complete with quality-of-life additions like save states and online play. This collection is out now on all major platforms, and we're going to be taking a look at the Nintendo Switch version today. This review is going to be a little different than the usual ones, as we're going to cover each game briefly on its own, and then circle back around to look at the overall package itself. There's a lot to cover, so let's dive right in.

Though Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon seems to have a rather strong hold on the retro-Castlevania revival scene, there's a new game that also takes inspiration from the classic vampire-killing game that just may challenge that position. Lords of Exile came into being via a successful Kickstarter back in 2020, and originally promised a 2021 release. Clearly some twists and turns were made along the ways as we only recently saw the game's release. Delays aside, it's now available on just about every modern platform, and we're going to be taking a look at the Steam version today. Was the long wait worth it? Does this capture that indescribable retro charm and flair? Will its villains fill the big shoes left by Dracula himself? Let's dive in and find out!

Run and gun action games that have light RPG mechanics aren’t' exactly uncommon, but Cybertrash STATYX has a lot of elements that make it unique. A cyberpunk setting, retro inspired visuals, and even a slight anime aesthetic thrown in for good measure, it seems to have it all. What is Cybertrash STATYX, you ask? Well, it's a new game set to arrive soon on the Nintendo Switch, XBox One/Series X|S, and the PlayStation 4. We're going to be taking a look at the Switch version today, and see if it's a game worth picking up. Seeing as this is a rather straightforward game, let's ditch the intro and dive right in!

There was a time when 2D Metroidvanias seemed to be coming out on a near daily basis. Thankfully that trend seems to have swung in the direction of roguelikes, but we have a straggler to look at today. Originally funded via Kickstarter back in 2020, Curse of The Sea Rats is a 2D Metroidvania that dropped onto PC and all major consoles last year. It's developed by Petoons Studio, published by PQube, and features some of the best animation this side of Cuphead. There's more to a game than just visuals though, so we're going to be taking a look at the Nintendo Switch version to see if this game is worth picking up, or if it's best being cast out to sea. Let's dive in and find out!

We'll be taking a look at an interesting game today. Bunny Reversi is exactly what you think it is based on the title, and it's coming soon to consoles and PC. While I'm not exactly the most accomplished Reversi player, I played it a lot in school and thought that the game looked interesting enough to review. It's a rather small release, so it's best not expect the world from it. With that in mind, we'll be taking a look at the Nintendo Switch version and see if it's worth picking up. Seeing as there's not much else to say in this intro, we'll just get right into it!
