Hey mild readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for Might thirteenth, 2024. In right this moment’s article, we kick off the week with 4 critiques so that you can get pleasure from. Our pal Mikhail has his full evaluations of Surmount and Tales of Kenzera: TAU, whereas I check out Countless Ocean Luminous and the EGGCONSOLE launch of Wanderers from Ys. After that, now we have just a few new releases to take a look at, plus our regular lists of recent and expiring gross sales. Let’s dig in!
Opinions & Mini-Views
Surmount ($14.99)
Surmount is a physics-based platforming and climbing journey recreation with a mix of handcrafted and procedurally generated elements. A few of these sub-genres have gotten fairly saturated through the years, so it’s at all times attention-grabbing when builders try to do issues otherwise. Surmount oozes allure and has enjoyable vibes occurring all through regardless of the difficult gameplay. I ended up having fun with the time I spent with it fairly a bit, nevertheless it has just a few small points holding it again.
After I first tried Surmount on Steam, I believed it had potential, however I didn’t assume it might have endurance. The preliminary impression makes it look like a kind of streamer-focused video games that’s constructed to be performed on Twitch, however Surmount ended up being rather more for me. Whereas I waited for the Swap model to get its day one patch to correctly begin taking part in there, I made a decision to dig deeper (climb greater?) on Steam Deck, after which the principle mechanic clicked.
As you employ the shoulder buttons to slowly climb, swing with the stick, and begin hooking your self as you try to climb, all of it begins to make sense. Surmount additionally has its personal day by day problem, a co-op mode (that I couldn’t take a look at sadly), and customization with upgrades. All of that is accompanied by nice humor and superb music.
Proper now, Surmount has two points holding it again. The primary is within the procedurally generated facet. This might simply be me “sucking” at particular map sorts or ranges, however I discovered just a few situations the place I spent an excessive amount of time with trial and error to maneuver ahead. These aren’t common occurrences, however I hope the technology may be improved to keep away from these. The second is inconsistent efficiency on Swap whatever the video mode I chosen docked. Handheld feels a bit higher, however I hope it may be improved.
Talking of the Swap, Surmount makes good use of rumble, and it even has touchscreen help for menus. It appears nice visually, although I feel it shines in handheld mode. It’s the excellent decide up and climb recreation. On Steam Deck, Surmount is principally excellent other than these minor technology points. You probably have the choice, I’d positively get Surmount on Steam Deck for rock stable 90fps and crisp visuals on the OLED mannequin.
Surmount is sort of difficult, nevertheless it additionally has an help mode if you wish to make issues simpler. I feel some people will need to use assists after the opening degree given the marginally totally different controls, however I urge you to stay with the default. As soon as issues click on and also you perceive how motion works, Surmount is unbelievable.
Surmount ended up shocking me always, and I will likely be taking part in the day by day problem and getting again to it typically on each Swap and Steam Deck typically. If the premise sounds good to you, I like to recommend downloading the demo for positive. You’ll not remorse it and the climbing mechanic is simply so good. -Mikhail Madnani

Tales of Kenzera: ZAU ($19.99)
Tales of Kenzera: ZAU from Surgent Studios and EA Originals is a Metroidvania action-adventure recreation with a touching story, nice artwork, beautiful music, glorious voice appearing, and enjoyable fight, however it’s a recreation that doesn’t actually hit the identical highs throughout the board. I’ve performed on each Swap and Steam Deck, and I’ve come away liking it much more, nevertheless it seems like not every thing within the recreation reaches the identical highs.
The principle draw for me right here was the narrative based mostly on its trailers. Tales of Kenzer: ZAU tells a narrative about dying, grief, household, hope, myths, and extra. Given the story-heavy nature Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, I gained’t spoil something, however I can’t bear in mind the final time a Metroidvania had a story that was as efficient, and one with voice appearing this good. I virtually want Tales of Kenzera: ZAU was extra of an journey recreation simply to have extra of these components.
The extra I performed it, the extra it felt like there are two totally different video games inside Tales of Kenzera: ZAU. The narrative and journey components really feel prime tier, however the gameplay generally feels missing, or not as nicely realized as the remainder of the expertise. Given the sport’s identify, I actually hope the workforce at Surgent Studios will get one other shot at this to enhance on the Metroidvania components. Given the sport’s identify, I hope Surgent Studios tackles a recreation like this once more. The following one has the potential to be much more superb.
Having performed Tales of Kenzera: ZAU on each Swap and Steam Deck, the latter provides a significantly better expertise, however the Swap port remains to be fairly good. I didn’t run into main efficiency points, and it managed nicely.
I completely suggest Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, and the Swap model was lots higher than I anticipated, however the Metroidvania facet isn’t as well-realized as the remainder of the sport. You’re right here for the narrative, music, artwork, and voice appearing greater than the Metroidvania bits that felt too linear. -Mikhail Madnani
SwitchArcade Rating: 4/5
Countless Ocean Luminous ($49.99)
There are not any two methods about it: Countless Ocean Luminous is a disappointment. The primary two video games, launched on the Wii, needed to swim laborious towards the tide. Some individuals strongly disliked their non-violent, relaxed nature, and I’m completely happy that we are actually in an period the place video games like Countless Ocean may be loved for what they’re slightly than disliked for not being what they by no means supposed to be. That makes it all of the extra irritating that, in a second the place it ought to have been in a position to shine its brightest, Countless Ocean Luminous places its worst foot ahead.
At first, all appears nicely. Comfy, even. Slipping into the ocean, taking footage of fish and cataloguing them, and having fun with the serene ambiance. You may even play with others on-line this time, which is an attention-grabbing addition. And hey, now we have procedurally generated areas! A brand new recreation each time you play! Sigh. Procedural technology has its place, however as an alternative to hand-crafted degree designs it at all times comes up quick. That’s a giant drawback right here as a result of whereas the novel mechanics and compelling setting of the Countless Ocean collection are necessary elements of the entire, among the finest issues concerning the earlier video games is in exploring these rigorously created worlds and discovering the issues the builders intentionally left so that you can discover.
You don’t get that in Countless Ocean Luminous. As a substitute of slowly venturing additional into the ocean and discovering creatures in locations you’ll count on to see them, right here the entire totally different species are strewn about willy-nilly, with no actual thought put into the place you’ll come throughout them and even which species they’ll share house with. To place it frankly, the sport isn’t almost as immersive as its predecessors, and that basically hurts the general expertise. It’s such a step again that I can’t think about anybody who loved the primary two video games being thrilled with this state of affairs.
That isn’t to say there isn’t something price digging into right here, although. It’s nonetheless enjoyable sufficient swimming round and taking footage, and you may study lots about ocean life within the course of. Taking part in the sport in multiplayer is attention-grabbing, and I feel some individuals will actually prefer it. With that stated, the best way progress works within the recreation entails finishing a variety of tedious missions, and it appears to work at odds with the multiplayer push. It’s a recreation that’s preventing with itself in a variety of methods.
It’s unlucky {that a} area of interest collection has lastly made a return after so a few years in a market that needs to be extra receptive to its charms, solely to make some large adjustments that considerably weaken the general bundle. There’s nonetheless one thing to Countless Ocean Luminous, issues you possibly can’t discover on this precise type wherever else, however the lack of a correctly designed world to discover and the generally tedious nature of the duties it requires of you make this a troublesome recreation to suggest with a lot vigor.

EGGCONSOLE Wanderers from Ys PC-8801mkIISR ($6.49)
A lot of what I say in these EGGCONSOLE critiques is identical each time, however what can I do? It is rather necessary so that you can know that it is a non-localized Japanese pc recreation in a wrapper that helps English for its menus and directions. For those who can’t learn Japanese, you’re going to require both some familiarity with Wanderers from Ys/Ys III or an honest walkthrough. With this recreation being what it’s, it’s not inconceivable for an individual to fulfill these circumstances, however the warning stays.
With that being stated, that is the unique PC-8801 model of Wanderers from Ys, the third recreation within the collection. Clashes over the character of this recreation led to the creators of Ys leaving Falcom and forming Quintet, so if nothing else we owe a variety of nice video games to this one’s existence. Wanderers has at all times been the black sheep of the collection because of its side-scrolling nature, and it has been basically overwritten by the extensively reimagined remake Ys: The Oath in Felghana. You may assume meaning it’s a nasty recreation, however I truly slightly prefer it. I wouldn’t rank it close to the highest of the collection by any means, nevertheless it has enjoyable gameplay, nice music, and for its platform it actually appears good.
Given how hardly ever Falcom appears to let the unique Wanderers out versus Oath in Felghana, it’s good to have an opportunity to play this recreation once more. It’s grindy and there are elements that don’t fairly work, however that Ys move that runs by way of nearly the entire video games is current and accounted for. This launch solely provides Japanese language help in-game, so be sure to know what you’re stepping into in the event you determine to choose it up. For those who’re okay with that, then that is well worth the spin.

There’s a wide selection of weapons to search out and make use of, and the entire thing is wrapped in a beautiful presentation. And hey, there’s even a free demo you possibly can obtain and attempt to see if it’s your factor or not. It’s at all times good when that choice is offered.

A puzzle platformer the place two characters have been separated from one another and try to reunite. The sport takes the type of a splitscreen view, with one character in every window. For those who’re taking part in alone, you’ll management each characters concurrently, which is clearly an attention-grabbing problem. If you’d like a better time of it, you possibly can herald one other participant by way of native multiplayer. Every individual will management one character that manner.

A visible novel a few romance between a totally unremarkable man and a really uncommon woman. Haven’t seen a kind of shortly. Our protagonist involves a brand new college and on the primary day meets a slightly strong-willed however revered woman who seems to be the coed council president. She takes a shining to plain man and pulls him into the coed council, and from there their relationship grows. Unsure what makes her a satan; I suppose you’ll must learn it to search out out.

That’s all for right this moment, pals. We’ll be again tomorrow with extra critiques, extra new releases, extra gross sales, and maybe some information. Or at the very least, I feel we’ll be again tomorrow. I’ve to go into town to interview a developer, however I needs to be again in time to do the article. I hope you all have a powerful Monday, and as at all times, thanks for studying!
