Just sneaking into the top ten thanks to the extremely enthusiastic vote from two team members, Two Point Hospital It’s one of the Switch games this year that we enjoyed. It’s a great port that misses a thing in the transition to Nintendo console and captures Bullfrog’s humorous spirit. Subject Hospital. The other games made us think of existential abyss in Werner Herzog style, or cry while we took a very emotional journey – Two Point Hospital gave us a very welcome shot of pure fun and comedy.

We imagine a stadium for Super Mario Bros 35 It was short, but the fact that everything connects so well contrasts with the design and thought complexity that has been carried over to an online multiplayer game that takes upon itself the platform game. For Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, Super Mario Bros. 35 as a timely tribute to the plumber’s legacy. The worst thing we can say is that we are disappointed that Nintendo plans to shut down servers on March 31, 2021 (presumably to give way to that). The Legend of Zelda 35 Or something like that).

Play it.
