Tiny Garden – Switch Review

Tiny Garden, a cozy gardening game developed by Ao Norte and published by Super Rare Originals, has finally made its way onto the Switch on February 26th! This version includes all currently available DLCs, including the Summer Breeze Cosmetic Pack and the Supporter's Pack, adding a lot more customization to the game. I choose you! I've heard a ton of great things about Tiny Garden back when it released for PC, so I jumped at the opportunity to get my hands on the newly released Switch version! Most cozy games will eventually make their way to the Switch, but really, some ports are more "miss" than "hit". Do you have any games that you would love to see ported? Or maybe any ports that you were extremely disappointed by? Let me know in the comments! Gameplay Tiny Garden begins by ha...

Class of Heroes 3 Remastered – Switch Review

Dungeon crawlers are an acquired taste, but sometimes the allure of a long-lost Japanese gem is too tempting to ignore. Class of Heroes 3 Remaster, developed by Acquire Corp and published in the West by PQube, is one of those titles.
