Posted on September 23rd, 2026 by
I’ve been to a few beaches in my lifetime but very few of them had boardwalks. Which is a shame because from what I’ve seen, there are many cool ones out there with arcades and other neat stuff. Well if you’ve ever wanted to build your own boardwalk beach attractions, now you can with Boardwalk Builders. It’s a simulation game with a retro style, and it’s available on Switch and PC but reviewed on Switch here.
Shoe it All! (Switch, PS5, Xbox X/S, PC, Mobile)
Posted on September 21st, 2026 by
When you were a kid, did you ever try and swing as high as you can on a swingset, and then fling your shoe off to see how high it would go? I never did that, but one time my best friend tried to jump off a swingset as he was swinging and got some nasty grass stains on his knees! Anyway, since they’ll make a game out of anything nowadays, here’s Shoe it All! It’s a game where you swing on a swingset and then press a button to throw a shoe off your foot at the right time to hit targets and cause mischief. It’s available on most current consoles, PC, and mobile, but reviewed on Switch here.
Bubsy 4D (Switch 1 & 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, X/S, PC)
Posted on September 16th, 2026 by
For every successful video game mascot like Mario or Sonic, there are tons more that have come and gone. Probably one of the more famous of these mascots is Bubsy the Bobcat. When his first game came out in the 16-bit era, it was touted as being the next big thing to Sonic. But after a couple of mediocre games later, plus an entry into 3D that was notoriously bad, Bubsy kind of faded from existence. Me personally, I didn’t think Bubsy’s first game was that bad, but I feel like it was only good for a rental, not something I’d buy. I never played the other games. But a few years ago, they brought back Bubsy in a 2D platformer that felt more like they made it for people to stream and watch rather than play. But would anyone be brave enough to make a follow-up to the famously bad 3D Bubsy game? Well now they have with Bubsy 4D, a new 3D platformer starring you know who. Bubsy’s antagonists, the Woolies, are back, but they’re just abducting sheep this time. But when the sheep come back as robots and steal Bubsy’s golden fleece yarn balls, it’s up to him and his friends to go on an intergalactic adventure to stop them! Bubsy 4D is available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.

Sizeable is a puzzle game where you are presented with a diorama in an isometric view. You can change the sizes of some of the things in the diorama that’ll reveal hidden secrets on the field or affect other objects. It’s available on most current consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.
Super Woden Rally Edge (PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, X/S, PC)

Somebody out there must like these Super Woden racing games, as this is the third one I’ve reviewed. This top down racer is more of a rally race, meaning that instead of laps, you go from point A to point B on a track just once. Super Woden Rally Edge is available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on PS4 here.
Marsupilami 2: Salsa Palombia (Switch, PS5, Xbox X/S, PC)
Posted on September 7th, 2026 by
Marsupilami is a European comic book character who is a fictional animal with leopard-like spots and a super long tail. He and his friends live in the jungles of South America but remains relatively obscure in the US. Die-hard Disney Afternoon fans like myself may remember some bumpers involving Marsupilami and he even got some shorts on Disney’s Raw Toonage 90s Saturday morning cartoon. He’s also been in a few video games and I reviewed one about five years ago. And here’s the sequel to that. Some ghostly skeletons are using a magic boom box to hypnotize all the animals in the jungle, and now it’s up to Marsupilami and his long tailed friends to stop them! Marsupilami 2: Salsa Palombia is a 2D platformer that plays very much like Donkey Kong Country. It’s available on most current consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.
Apidya’ Special (Switch 1 & 2, PS5, Xbox X/S, PC)

In this 2D side scrolling shooter, you play as a bug as you shoot down enemy insects in giant themed areas. Reminds me a little bit of Insector-X. Originally an Amiga shooter, now you can play it on most modern consoles (reviewed on Switch 2 here), with added features.
Kaboomania (Switch, X/S, PC)
Posted on August 31st, 2026 by
There are times when a game takes inspiration from another title, and there are other times when it’s just a blatant rip off. This is one of those times. Best way to describe Kaboomania is that it’s basically Bomberman. Sure you play as a guy instead of a robot and lay dynamite instead of bombs, but it’s the same game. Kaboomania is available on some current consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.
Pets Survivors (PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, X/S, PC)
Posted on August 26th, 2026 by
Here’s another Vampire Survivors clone where you shoot enemies as pets with guns. I think the same company who made Dagger Froggy also made this one because that frog is in this game, too. Pets Survivors is available on all current consoles but reviewed on PS4 here.
Obakeidoro 2: Chase and Seek (Switch 1 & 2)
Posted on August 24th, 2026 by
About five years ago I reviewed the original Obakeidoro, and now here’s the sequel. A mysterious man in a top hat has changed a school into a haunted mansion so that ghosts and kids can play a spooky yet silly game of hide and seek together. Help a schoolgirl and her friends, or the ghosts, play in this multiplayer centric mashup of hide and seek and tag. Obakeidoro 2 is available on Switch 1 and 2, but reviewed on the latter here.
