Hello, dear readers, and welcome to the February 9, 2024 SwitchArcade roundup. Another week is coming to an end and we have a surprising number of new games to consider. Not a lot overall, but there are plenty of affordable options that will give you decent value. Before we get into that, our friend Mikhail has some news for us. What will it be? I’m so excited. He’ll be on the mic, and then I’ll give you our usual update on new product launches and sales. let’s go!

“Library of Ruina” releases new console game trailer
Arc System Works America and Project Moon have unveiled new gameplay for one of my most anticipated console ports in a while, Ruina Library. I love deck-building games and story-focused games, and this combines them. A friend of mine pestered me to look into it on Steam, but it’s already released on consoles and will be released on Switch and PlayStation this spring. The new trailer features console gameplay and a look at the new Japanese voice acting added to the new version.
new version
PRISONELLA DX ($4.99)
This precision platformer focuses on tough challenges in tiny levels, all delivered in random order so you never know which one will appear next. You only get one chance per level, because if you die, you start over with another randomly chosen level. OK? bad? I guess this is just one of the many affordable options available today.
Jubilee ($9.99)
A precision platformer featuring a hero imprisoned for an unpaid debt. Run and jump to get free, collect some gems, save some animals and then do it again with another character. There’s nothing too fancy or innovative here, but it’s well-made.
Mortal Danger($4.99)
Play as an unsung hero armed with a scythe and two pistols, embarking on missions such as defeating bad guys. It’s a twin-stick action game with roguelite elements, as is the style today, and it’s also very simple to play. Fight enemies and clear each stage. I mean, it’s obviously death. You can’t fool anyone, “unsung hero”!
.TEST: expected behavior ($7.99)
A first-person puzzle action game where you need to use your abilities to manipulate time to solve the problems put in front of you. Obviously, this is a game inspired by Portal, but sadly that other game isn’t that good. It’s so hard to control, and you can tell it was originally designed for a PC interface. If you can master it, you’ll have over a hundred levels to look forward to.
MazM: Stove ($14.99)
This one is a little different from the previous one Maz M The thing about the game is that it doesn’t adapt a literary work. Instead, it is set in Vladivostok after the 1908 Russo-Japanese War. You’ll get a front-row seat to the Korean independence movement, or at least a part of it, with all the historical figures you’d expect to see appear in the story. Your choices and actions will determine the game ending you get, largely dependent on the fate of fictional protagonist Peter.
Exile($4.99)
This is a compact puzzle game similar to Room or Da Vinci’s former residence. You’ll need to use clues found in a book left by Charlotte to translate a mysterious language and figure out the strange environment you find yourself in. If you have an itch that needs scratching, you may scratch it.
Just Find It Collector’s Edition ($9.99)
Find hidden objects… In visually busy photos!
Nature Escapes 3 Collector’s Edition ($14.99)
Find hidden objects… In nature! again!
First Time in Hawaii Collector’s Edition ($11.99)
Find hidden objects… in hawaii!
Adventure: Europa 5 Collector’s Edition ($14.99)
Find hidden objects… in Europe!
Nominal($4.99)
Another budget game from QubicGames. This is a level-based, overhead stealth action game where you play as a person turned into a monster. You go to the doctor who did this to you so you can change it back. You’ll do a lot of naughty things along the way, but that’s okay because you’re a monster.
Golf Powder ($12.99)
From the name you might expect something like desert golf, but no, this is just a very ordinary game of high golf. Four different locations, some upgrades need to be purchased, single player only. Like other Red.Deer games, this will be available at a huge discount almost immediately. Don’t pay full price. That said, if you like golf games, this is a good game.

Today’s list is quite extensive, perfect for Friday.Good games like Broto, Hades, 30XX, Final Vendetta, there are more items on sale, so you’ll want to check your inbox carefully and see what’s going on. To balance this out, the outbox is small. so small. Nothing to worry about there. So if the first list seems long, just jumble them together and divide by two or something. This is math! Everyone loves math!
