Sounds more like edutainment than a game, maybe that can narrow down the Google results?

So the Switch version of Moonlighter was finally released this month and I must say it was worth the wait for this specific port. While practically identical to the other available versions, this is a game that really benefits from being released on a portable platform. The pixel art, while beautiful on any screen size, really shines on the small Switch screen. It doesn’t seem to be too demanding on the innards of the console either, as I had plenty of juice left after a 4 hour session. While I can understand why some would bill this to be a rogue lite, I prefer to see it as a classic Zelda game with procedurally generated dungeons. It doesn’t have the frustration factor you find in most rogue likes/lites and the challenging bosses doesn’t strike me as unfair. This is a game I’d recommend on any platform to fans of Zelda style dungeon crawlers and even rogue lites, but I’d specifically recommend the Switch version if you like playing while commuting or you’re on the bog. Now it’s back to the game for me, I just need another run to see if I can unlock the next dungeon.

If it happens, it’ll be next holiday season at the earliest.

Yeah, it’s out in s few days.

The original Mass Effect trilogy really got under my skin. It was such a fantastic universe with loads of great characters and drama. I've completed each game three times, with the exception of 2 which I've completed four times. With that said, games getting under my skin actually happens regularly. I had it with Alone in the Dark back in the early 90's, Syndicate, Lands of Lore, Eye of the Beholder 2, Deus Ex, Fallout 3 and more recently Resident Evil 7 in VR.

I bet you’re sorry

For those who didn’t stay up ‘til midnight to get the first taste of the game, Happy RDR2 day! May the manure and gunsmoke flow freely tonight!

I'm planning on going 3rd person without the mini map. Might try the first person view to see how it feels but I'm quite certain that 3rd person will be the way to go for me, personally.

Grave of the Fireflies is up there for me.

I got Super Mario Party for my birthday from my kids yesterday, and it broke my heart. Twice. First of all, they'd spent their hard earned cash and made the mistake of going to Gamestop. They had to fork out £60 for the damn game but they were very excited to give this game to me. They'd heard me going on about the glorious Mario Party sessions I had back on Gamecube so this was a very personal gift. That broke my heart a little. Next up they were very excited about playing this with me last night, but it turned out that the game doesn't support the Pro controller. We have two Pro controllers and only one pair of joycons. When they realized we couldn't play together as a family due to the lack of joycons, they were really let down. That broke my heart a little too. Oh well, seems like I'm going joycon hunting today. Can't wait to play Mario Party with them all night.

First film that came to mind was Intouchables. Fried Green Tomatoes is also a good one.

My personal wishlist for the rest of the games include: Alundra Suikoden 1+2 Castlevania: Symphonies of the Night Final Fantasy IX Brave Fencer Musashi Vandal Hearts Final Fantasy Tactics Vagrant Story Breath of Fire 3 Xenogears Parasite Eve Resident Evil 1 + 2

I'm a bit worried about Moonlighter, it doesn't show up in the Coming Soon section of the eShop, all the other games are there. Crossing my fingers that it'll be released on the 29th regardless.

This is, without a doubt, my favourite series so far this year.
