‘Shepherd’s Crossing’, ‘The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo’, Plus More Releases and Sales – TouchArcade

Whats up mild readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for September seventh, 2023. Right now’s Thursday, however you’ll barely comprehend it by taking a look at immediately’s checklist of recent releases. A typically low variety of video games, half of them are in The Bin Bunch, and nothing actually stand-out to guide the pack. I assume we must always benefit from the break whereas we are able to, as a result of issues are going to go bonkers quickly. Effectively, that’s simply how it’s. We now have summaries of all the brand new video games, and the same old lists of incoming and outgoing gross sales. Let’s get to it!

New Releases

Shepherd’s Crossing ($29.99)

Wow, that’s a blast from the previous. Shepherd’s Crossing launched on the PlayStation 2 one thing like twenty years in the past, and I’m fairly certain it received localized actually late within the system’s life when publishers have been tossing all the pieces on the more and more worn-down wall to see what caught. Anyway, it’s a farming sim of kinds, but it surely doesn’t play something like different video games within the style. There’s no cash, all the pieces works on a barter system, and the main focus is on elevating livestock and animal husbandry. This Swap model makes a couple of small tweaks, however by and huge that is Shepherd’s Crossing as you might need seen it again within the 00s.

The Many Items of Mr. Coo ($19.99)

A foolish point-and-click model journey recreation a couple of man who has misplaced his elements and desires to trace them down. It definitely has its model down, with vibrant, artistic designs and a few terrific animations. The puzzles are alright, too. The one factor to bear in mind is that it’s fairly quick. Possibly an hour or two, max. If you happen to’re okay with that, then by all means leap into this totally absurd world for a brief go to.

The Dragoness: Command of the Flame ($17.99)

This can be a Heroes of Would possibly & Magic-inspired recreation that throws some roguelite parts into the components to blended outcomes. On condition that we’re not precisely swimming in HoMM-style video games on the Swap, you could be a bit extra forgiving of its faults. These primarily come right down to the random parts wreaking a bit an excessive amount of havoc with the strategic features. The UI can also be a bit tough to cope with, as you’ll in all probability count on from a recreation like this on console. I can’t actually suggest it with a lot enthusiasm, however I might see some individuals stepping into what it’s laying down.

Alchemy Backyard ($12.99)

If you happen to’re on the lookout for a extra conventional collect/craft/promote loop recreation immediately, Alchemy Backyard could be what you’re on the lookout for. Customise your character, then get to work cultivating your personal alchemy backyard. Upon getting components, you may brew potions which you could promote in your store. Typically you’ll want to move out and search new components within the surrounding areas. However the fiercest foes are in all probability the shoppers who will attempt to negotiate your costs. Doesn’t appear like something significantly distinctive, however I feel that’s going to be tremendous for some.

Strike Power 3 ($19.99)

One other one in every of Polygon Arts’ snooze-worthy first-person shooters. For one participant solely. Battle by a marketing campaign that can remind you of higher campaigns you battled by in different video games. I don’t suppose that is fairly worthy of the bin, but it surely was shut sufficient that I had to consider it.

Forest Crash Occasion ($24.99)

This one solely has assist for Japanese language, so pay attention to that. It’s a celebration recreation of kinds for as much as 4 gamers by way of native or on-line multiplayer. There are thirty phases in whole to play, every with their very own gimmick. Your objective is mostly to achieve the top, surviving all of the traps alongside the best way. Oh, and people phases are procedurally generated. It appears to be like extremely janky, which implies it’d both be horrible or hilarious. I’m not taking the twenty-five greenback punt to search out out which.

The Delusion Seekers: The Legacy of Vulcan ($14.99)

The most recent Artifex Mundi hidden object journey recreation sees you on a case to discover a lacking member of the Delusion Seeker company and get well the Hammer of Vulcan earlier than the traditional gods kick up a ruckus. Discover the Twenties Italian setting, remedy puzzles, and see in the event you can wrap issues up earlier than it’s too late for everybody. That’s about all I can say for this one, because it’s probably not my style of curiosity.

Raindrop Sprinters ($8.70)

Rain drops maintain falling in your head. No, I’m not singing. Okay, sure I’m. But additionally, that’s what this recreation is about. It’s a fixed-screen motion recreation that throws again to early Nineteen Eighties arcade video games. Your objective is to get from one aspect of the display to the opposite with out getting soaked by the falling rain drops. It provides on-line leaderboards, and there are a handful of various modes to play that assist combine issues up. There are apparently a whole lot of secrets and techniques to search out, as nicely. Appears cute for the value. I would choose it up later and provides it a go.

Arcade Archives Zing Zing Zip ($7.99)

This can be a 1992 launch from Allumer, and it’s simply as off-beat and tough across the edges as all of its shoot-em-ups. The scoring system is completely damaged, so the leaderboards are in all probability going to be a large number. Nonetheless, the foolish nature and quirky quotes may make this one price a visit for many who can get into that type of factor. It’s in all probability my least-favorite of Allumer’s shooters, however there’s nonetheless some enjoyable available right here.

Into the Sky ($9.99)

I assume EpiXR is taking a break from the Aery video games by making this recreation the place you leap, sprint, and fly to achieve the objective in every stage as quick as you may. There are occasional mild environmental puzzles to cope with, however primarily that is only a first-person platformer that places an emphasis on velocity.

Gross sales

(North American eShop, US Costs)

When the video games I’m most inclined to suggest from the outbox are KEMCO titles, you recognize it’s a tough checklist. However that’s what I’m going to do, as a result of Raging Bytes and Yodanji are fairly respectable. Over within the outbox, you’ve received great things like Donut Dodo and Murtop. Effectively, take a look at each lists by yourself and see what jumps out at you.
