The place does the time go? No less than so far as Could is worried, it went to Zelda for me. However immediately is a brand new day, a day stuffed with Etrian Odyssey, and which means I believe I do know the place my June goes to go. We’ve acquired summaries of all the brand new releases for immediately, plus the same old lists of recent and outgoing gross sales. Let’s get to them, lets?

New Releases

Etrian Odyssey Origins Assortment ($79.99)

Etrian Odyssey HD ($39.99)

Etrian Odyssey II HD ($39.99)

Etrian Odyssey III HD ($39.99)

RPG followers, rejoice! The wonderful Etrian Odyssey sequence involves Change with these HD remakes of the primary three video games. These are superior, difficult video games that simply stored upping the ante with every new installment, and making an attempt to purchase the Nintendo DS cartridges now can get very costly certainly. The signature mapping function doesn’t work as easily right here because it did on the DS, particularly should you’re taking part in docked, nevertheless it’s nearly as good as it may be. Plus, you need to use auto-mapping should you don’t need to cope with it. I’ll have a evaluate for these quickly, however as somebody who has been a giant fan of this sequence from the discharge of the very first installment, I’m fairly glad.

Killer Frequency ($24.99)

Team17’s newest actually appears intriguing. It’s a horror comedy the place you play as an area radio host who the residents flip to for assist when a assassin is on the free. The police chief is already useless, you see. They’ll name in, and your selections and fast considering will both save them or condemn them to dying. The entire thing has a cheeky Nineteen Eighties slasher movie vibe, so don’t anticipate issues to be taken too severely. I just like the look of this one, although I don’t usually like horror video games a lot.

Mission Nightmares Case 36: Henrietta Kedward ($19.99)

Phew, and a few individuals thought the soar from Remaining Fantasy III to Remaining Fantasy VII was lots to absorb. Right here’s Mission Nightmares Case 36, which can or is probably not the thirty-sixth sport in its sequence. It’s an indie horror sport, and one that’s working just a little on the pricier facet as these items go. It’s a reasonably transient sport and do be warned that it has loads of soar scares. Opinions are respectable however not nice over on Steam, so we’ll should see if the Change crowd takes to it.

Arcade Archives Tetris the Absolute the Grand Grasp 2 Plus ($7.99)

That’s some title. Some title. Nicely, right here’s one other approach to play Tetris in your Change. That is the second in Arika’s Tetris The Grand Grasp sequence, aimed toward extra veteran gamers of the sport. I’d seize this over the primary one should you can solely choose one, however most Tetris gamers are in all probability going to be extra snug with extra approachable variations like Tetris Impact or Puyo Puyo Tetris 2. For those who discover all of these too straightforward? This one’s for you.

Boxville ($9.99)

An journey sport of kinds set in a metropolis fabricated from packing containers populated by a bunch of previous cans. At some point, a giant earthquake leads to the disappearance of Blue Can’s pal, and he goes on a search to seek out them. His journey could even lead him to seek out out the reason for the current disasters putting the peaceable metropolis. It actually has a cool sense of favor going for it. It’s additionally a type of video games assured sufficient to offer a demo, so be happy to present it a strive should you’re intrigued by the premise.

GyroGunner ($7.20)

This can be a multidirectional shooter the place your purpose in every of the seven phases is to filter the enemy bases by blasting away every part you’ll be able to. For those who take too many hits, you’re out. Accomplished phases will be replayed at your leisure within the free mode, and if it’s a bit too robust you’ll be able to play on the informal issue setting that was added for this model. No power-ups, no well being pick-ups, simply you and your chopper towards the world. Appears strong to me.

Aery – The Misplaced Hero ($9.99)

One other Aery sport, and there isn’t actually something I must say about these anymore. They’re all primarily the identical when it comes to construction and gameplay, so all of it comes all the way down to if you wish to slam down a tenner for some new chill environments to fly by way of. I’ve had my fill, however should you haven’t then right here you go.

Japanese Nekosama Escape The Sweets Store ($9.99)

Talking of sequence the place I don’t have lots new to say, right here’s one other Japanese Nekosama Escape sport. This one is about in a sweets store, and structurally it really works like all the others. In order I mentioned for Aery, if you would like extra of that sort of factor, right here you go. For those who don’t, then… don’t purchase it? I don’t know, I’m not your accountant.

LotionSamurai ($2.99)

Okay, so to start with, the one supported language right here is Japanese. Second, that is bonkers. Nobunaga Oda has been captured and reworked right into a Lotion Samurai. He can’t even stroll anymore, however he’s so slippery that if he kicks off a wall he’ll fly ahead at fast pace. The concept is to bounce off the partitions as quick as you’ll be able to, killing ninjas an making your approach to the purpose. On-line leaderboards can help you compete with others to see who’s the slickest participant. Undoubtedly the oddest approach to spend a couple of dollars immediately.

Constellations ($4.99)

A reasonably chill puzzle sport the place you join the celebrities to make the constellations. There are multiple hundred ranges to play, plus a random degree generator to maintain the social gathering going do you have to deem it crucial. Could be what you’re searching for immediately, relying in your temper.

Korokoro Harley ($3.00)

A quite simple sport a few hedgehog who rolls round on the pace of… properly, a barely quicker than regular hedgehog. I can’t actually consider any comparability factors right here, sorry. Think about a hedgehog however quicker. He rolls round once you transfer the stick, and his spines come out once you press the button. You need to use them to interrupt obstacles, however you can too use them when you’ll want to decelerate. This seems virtually okay for 3 bucks, actually.

Legendary Tales: Cataclysm ($6.99)

Hidden object journey time, with a comparatively affordable price ticket connected. I’m previous having the ability to generate something new to say about these, so I’ll do followers of the style a courtesy and simply depart a notice right here and transfer on.

So A lot Stuff Collector’s Version ($14.99)

Sure, that is the extra ordinary value for a hidden object sport. This one contains some minigames, just like the one pictured above. For followers of the style who don’t need or want a narrative connected and simply need to get proper to the article looking.

Powers of Hex ($0.99)

Nicely, it’s a buck. It’s a Mega Man-style platformer, and it’s a buck. Select your stage, defeat the boss, get a brand new energy from some entity named Elfvis, and repeat till all of your powers are restored. I wouldn’t anticipate an entire lot from this, however I can also’t say you gained’t get an entire 4 quarters of leisure out of it both.

Hidden Bunny ($0.99)

One other sport that prices a greenback, this one a hidden object sport. It’s… not fairly as fancy because the others which can be releasing immediately. However should you simply need to discover some bunnies, this can supply that at a minimal value.

Transfer The Field: Basic Block Puzzle ($9.99)

Transfer the items, make matches, attempt to clear the sector. You’ve seen it earlier than, you’ll find a few thousand free cellular video games that do it, and you shouldn’t give Megame ten bucks for its lukewarm tackle it.

Mad Street – Apocalyptic Shooter Survival Killer ($9.99)

Some junk from VG Video games. Like most of their stuff, it’s the sort of factor you would discover totally free in your cellular gadget should you regarded round even just a little. You already know the place to go away it.
