Deiland: Pocket Planet Edition doesn’t rise anywhere near the top of farming simulators on the Switch, mostly due to some rather poor design choices, yet it is still remarkably charming in its own right and has a calming and meditative gameplay loop that did its best to keep me hooked for at least a little while.

Outriders is a game you'll likely make up your mind over within the first few hours. While the game doesn't take great strides in being wholly original, the sum of its many inspired parts makes for a vastly engaging experience, decked out in its low-budget sci-fi narrative. It's big, aggressive, insanely enjoyable, but only when you're actually able to connect to its online servers.

While Rise lacks the greater detail and openness of Monster Hunter World, the game never feels visually disappointing, and despite the weaker hardware contained within the Switch, it runs and performs beautifully.

Part of the appeal of Monster Trucks are in their larger-than-life nature, seeing them climb over cars, crushing them into heaps of scrap metal, or seeing the insane tricks their drivers are able to pull off in these clunky yet weighty titans. Sadly, that appeal just isn’t anywhere here in Steel Titans 2.
