This showed up at a recent Nintendo Direct, and my hype was through the roof. This is a series that came out on the Famicom (japanese version of the NES), through the Disc System (each game had 2 discs). It’s a point-and-click adventure game series that never got officially translated, but I know it was a big deal originally, serving partly as an inspiration to the Ace Attorney series.

I’m combining both games in one post, so it might be a kinda long post considering the type of game it is. I will be as spoiler-free as I can though, because for this kind of game it’s largely about the story, so I don’t want people to know the whole plot just from reading my review.

Let’s go and see what the west has been missing since the 80s!

6 reviews in a month, not bad. There’s been some okay stuff here, some GotY-level stuff too.

I do have a bunch of reviews incoming too. SaGa Frontier Remastered, Nier Replicant, Smelter, and a bunch of other stuff probably. I think I’ll be busy with reviews for a bit still, I’m really not running out of games to play that’s for sure. Plus MHR is coming back for more with the 2.0 update.

So anyways, this month I’m highlighting: 7 multiplats, 4 Switch releases, a PC release and a PS5 port of an old Switch game. It’s a pretty quiet month but there’s certainly some interesting games there. It’s the calm before the June storm.

Disclaimer: I only list games that I think are worth mentioning. This includes games I’m personally interested in, games that will likely be popular, highly advertised games, small interesting ones I may notice and such. And of course I can’t see the future, so I may be missing games and I may be listing games that may get delayed.
