A light week for big name new releases nonetheless brings a few possible gems to Switch with Sam & Max, Beyond a Steel Sky, and Danganronpa.
Dang
Yes, it’s December, and as such the big names are few and far between. Well, they are on Nintendo’s platform anyway, as there’s a certain green-armored soldier who’s set to return this month.
That doesn’t mean that there’s nothing new to play though. This week brings a few notables to the Switch, including the above mentioned, plus Nintendo’s headlining title of the week, Big Brain Academy.
That’s a multiplayer “party game” that pits players against each other in a battle of mental acuity. Could be a fun time. Personally though, my pick of the week would be Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space.
It might not have the same magic as the Lucasarts Sam & Max of yesteryear, but it does look like a fun time. And of course, it seems pretty funny too. That’s pretty important when you’re talking about a game starring the freelance police.
