Rift of the NecroDancer review

by

Rift of the NecroDancer is a rhythm game where you score points by pressing buttons to the beat, but it also has a story mode! You play as Cadence, who gets pulled into another dimension and must defeat monsters using the power of music to survive. She meets other characters – both old friends and former enemies – who are also trapped, and together you need to find a way back home. The story mode is a great way to learn the game, introducing songs in a good order, and while the story isn’t deeply emotional, the cutscenes are pleasant and don’t interrupt the gameplay.

Laika is a powerful story about a mother’s fierce determination to protect her daughter, her community, and their home from the terrifying Birds, a ruthless enemy that threatens everything she holds dear.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure Switch review

by

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is a surprisingly sweet and enjoyable game, even more so than many candy-themed games! I originally reviewed the mobile version in 2023, and the Switch version remains very similar. You can check out my original review if you’d like, but the Switch version really shines on the OLED screen. While I experienced some brief freezes when playing on my TV, the game generally ran smoothly during my time exploring the island.
