The Nintendo Switch eShop has been refreshed with loads of new titles ahead of the weekend. This week’s roundup includes a diverse range of titles, from the digital trappings of Tron to cursed sea rats on the high seas.
Firstly, there’s a new game set in the Tron universe. This puzzle-adventure title features multiple endings, with a story shaped by your decisions. If you’re a fan of the movies, this one is sure to hit that nostalgic sweet spot.
Meanwhile, if you’re a dog person you’ll likely be interested in Pupperazzi, a game that tasks you with photographing various pooches scattered around the world. It smacks of cuteness, with upgradeable cameras and various objectives to complete. We’re working on a review of this one right now, so stay tuned for our thoughts!
And, if you’re into platforming, then Curse of the Sea Rats might just be up your alley. This one features hand-drawn animation as you journey across the sea disguised as rats (not by choice, mind you). This interesting premise promises boss fights and battles as you seek out the witch who cursed you.
There’s a very long list of new titles to check out, from zombies to family fun night, so let us know which games you’ll be playing this weekend.
