A slot machine game with in-game purchases to buy more fake money with your real money. SwitchArcade Score: 3/5 New Releases All in Casino Girls ($4.99) It’s not the most exciting of affairs, but for the meager asking price it delivers well enough.

Like many of this publisher’s other offerings, Shapeshooter is a fun action game that can occupy a lazy hour or two. SwitchArcade Score: 3.5/5 Shapeshooter ($3.99) It’s worth a punt for genre fans for its creative ideas and lovely visual style alone, but the Switch may not be the best place to enjoy it. There are some minor technical issues too, but nothing outside of the ordinary as far as Switch ports go. This game is screaming for mouse controls, and trying to manipulate all of the fiddly bits with a stick and buttons can be frustrating thanks to a sluggish cursor. This port adds a few more issues on top of the pile, unfortunately.

If anything, the main weak point of the game itself is that it doesn’t do more with its intriguing world-building.

It’s a little simplified in some respects, as your denizens will automatically assign themselves to various jobs. And it does those things as well as you could hope with a console interface. Gather resources, build your kingdom, and research new technologies that will give you access to even more stuff.


In most ways, Airborne Kingdom is a very typical simulation game. Let’s get going!
