The Culling 2 is nothing more than a weak imitation of PUBG and H1Z1.

It's a crying shame - not to mention an almost unbelievable situation - that Mutant Football League: Dynasty Edition is currently the only American football game on Switch; Nintendo fans certainly deserve much, much better. Due to the annoying 'dirty tricks' system and unpredictable field changes, the experience leads to many cheap situations which, while mixing things up, don't make the game fun to play. It has the over-the-top aggression of its spiritual forerunner - 1993's Mutant League Football - and a sizable amount of content, but it's simply not an enjoyable experience after a few games, even when a second person is involved. As a result, you'll quickly give up and wish you had a proper gridiron experience to play on your Switch. If you loved the Mega Drive original and crave an American Football game more than anything else in the world then you may extract some pleasure from this release, but everyone else should avoid like an incoming linebacker.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey features a rich, lush world lessened by its repetitive activities. Though the main story is compelling, completing it requires you to participate in a massive amount of level grinding through less-than-stellar side quests. There's plenty to do in this world, but a lot of it feels like busy work that fights to stay exciting or compelling.
There's explosive fun to be had in Just Cause 4, but it's mostly a rehash of old ideas.

SolSeraph is an authentic ode to ActRaiser undercut by unbalanced action levels and shallow strategy gameplay.
Scribblenauts Showdown is fun party game that's uncharacteristically smart.
'Fast RMX' isn't quite the 'F-Zero' revival you've been waiting for, but it's close
Mario Golf: Super Rush is a fast-paced spin on the relaxing sport that oozes excitement.
Blasphemous is an eery Metroidvania with gorgeous animations and combat that's just a tad too one-dimensional.
