It’s a colour-matching puzzle game featuring Quote and Curly Brace from Cave Story, Isaac from The Binding of Isaac, Astro Boy and Black Jack from Tezuka Productions, and, err, Johnny Turbo.ĭestructoid felt it was worthy of an 8/10. “With tight controls, retro-styled minimal art style and a superb sense of progression, this is the perfect Metroidvania to play whilst you’re waiting for an actual Metroid or appropriate Castlevania game,” was their verdict.įans of Capcom’s Super Puzzle Fighter may want to investigate Crystal Crisis from Nicalis. It’s a retro platform adventure with monochrome visuals, starring a feisty feline in a mech suit. “Paired with a progression system that takes more away from the genre than it actually brings and the absence of any real element of replayability, there’s not much backing up the areas where Little Friends excels,” they continued.ĭevolver Digital’s Gato Roboto is another new release with animal magnetism, and it couldn’t be any more different from the above. “ the frustrating give and take when using the Joy-Con and the disappointing limits of touchscreen controls really hamper the experience,” said TheSixthAxis. Sadly, review scores aren’t quite as high as Nintendo’s own pet simulators, mostly being a mixture of 5s and 6s. You can even dress them up in daft clothing, and splash out on scratching posts that they’ll no doubt only ever use once before sitting in the box it came in.

If you're a fan of old school Metroid, I can promise that you won't be disappointed.In absence of a new Nintendogs for Switch, long-running Japanese developer Imagineer has stepped in to offer an alternative.

Whether you play on Steam or on Switch (pssssst, play on Switch), make sure you check out Gato Roboto.

The only frustration I found in that regard was having go through the dialogue for each and every boss attempt, but for that to be my biggest complaint is a pretty big accolade for the game. The game is fairly generous with save point placement, so dying and losing an hour of progress isn't a concern. This is the perfect game to fire up and play through on a flight, a train ride, or a morning commute (assuming you're not driving on your commute I do not condone playing Switch while driving).

Yes, it's a very short game, but it's also an extremely affordable game, and most importantly, it's an extremely enjoyable game. Gato Roboto is an extremely short experience, and while a three to four hour time to beat may seem unduly short to some and serve as a turn off, I must recommend that those people reconsider.
