number eight Mutant Mudds
[Music]
still watch more titles that feel like a
throwback to the old war days of gaming
Mutant Mudds captures the cleverly
simple yet challenging gameplay of the
NES era for a game that is if nothing
else just a whole lot of fun with
nothing but a jump button an attack
button to help you tackle the obstacles
ahead what really sets this game apart
from other indie platformers on the hand
health is how effectively it makes use
of the portables 3d functionality and
multiple points throughout the game the
player is able to bounce between the
background and the foreground adding new
layers of depth to the adventure
literally number seven codename Steve
from the folks who brought us the Fire
Emblem series codenamed steam was their
attempt to launch an all-new franchise
for Nintendo but sadly it didn’t take
off as they initially hoped it’s
puzzling how it didn’t resonate with
gamers as the game exhibited a good deal
of polish in every aspect of its design
the colorful cel-shaded graphics are
enjoyed a look at and the alternate
steampunk inspired history is pretty fun
too on top of this the hybrid of
third-person shooting in turn-based
strategy gameplay makes this an
experience unlike anything else on the
handheld now fire the mega boil is the
maximum pressure and make speed for
Washington

number six mighty switch force
[Music]
with its strong emphasis on speed and
problem solving this puzzle platformer
is a rush for any gamer who loves having
to simultaneously test their reflexes
and observation skills taking control of
a cyborg police officer the player will
need to take full advantage of the many
abilities at their disposal knowing how
to properly approach each situation
whether they call for careful jumps or
well-timed shots against enemies similar
to Asura striker gunvolt the gameplay
here is also measured on a timer
rewarding players for their performance
and opening possibilities for
speedrunners to just go nuts
[Music]
number-5 Etrian Odyssey for legends of
the Titan
[Music]
the fourth entry of this dungeon crawler
RPG series was also the first
installment to land on the 3d yes so
you’d think that would have opened it up
to an even wider audience right sadly
that’s not the case which is a shame
considering the amount of quality
content here with an epic storyline
revolving around a high fantasy setting
right with interesting characters and an
absolutely gargantuan overworld to
explore this is one Odyssey that any fan
of the genre or a good challenge does
not want to miss also just DS upon the
stunning art design gays gays we say who
would hate myself for that one number 4
karma night
[Music]
in the mood for something a little
different
herma night is an action platformer with
a twist instead of just jumping and
shooting at random the point here is to
instead match up your movements to the
musical rhythm provided by the game it
might sound a bit odd at first but give
it a chance and don’t be surprised if
you catch yourself tapping your feet and
jamming away to every well-timed button
press it’s a strange mashup but
sometimes the strangest scenarios can
give life to the most unexpectedly
enjoyable results harmonize this proof
of fact number three fantasy life video
games are already about escaping into a
fantasy world so why not dive into a
game specifically designed around that
philosophy alone from the moment you
begin fantasy life provides the player
with the freedom of choice the choice to
select your class profession skills and
so on and so forth after that’s all set
up well just go and live your fantasy
life collect resources plunder for
hidden treasures explore the world fight
monstrous foes you name it the sky is
the limit with so much to see and do the
entire world of seemingly endless fun is
waiting for you and the tons of other
people who apparently missed out on it
[Music]
number two box-boy
[Applause]
up for something a tad more
intellectually stimulating to stretch
those brain muscles this
puzzle-platformer tasks the player with
controlling QB a square that has the
ability to create multiple connected
boxes in order to overcome obstacles and
successfully explore environments as you
progress through the game the stages
become increasing Li more intricate and
complex demanding that the player rise
to the challenge and ahem
think outside the box in order to crack
each puzzle and move forward considering
its reasonable price point and
incredible gameplay depth for such a
simple premise
box-boy is basically a no-brainer but
you’ll also need your brain with the
puzzles you know before we unveil our
top pick here a few honorable mentions
sorry but I am done with playing the
action hero but why because I grew up
[Music]
number one Shin Megami Tensei for
while this Atlas RPG series undoubtedly
has a very solid base many would argue
that it’s legion of followers isn’t
quite legion s enough to do it justice
featuring an epic plotline about a
samurai defending his kingdom from an
invasion of hostile demons a deep and
rewarding turn-based combat system and
wonderful musical tracks it’s not hard
to figure out why this is a game that
more 3ds owners should check out at some
point plus it’s worth noting that some
gamers have argued that Shin Megami
Tensei rivals or even exceeds the
Pokemon series another game about
battling various monsters in a large
world so that’s saying something right
once more death do you agree with our
picks check out these other great clips
