Hello again, gaming enthusiasts! Welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for August 26th, 2024. Today's update is a bit lighter than usual; I'm juggling some other projects, so reviews are on hold. However, we've got some interesting new releases to cover, plus the usual sales updates. Let's dive in!
New Game Releases
Fragrant Story and Papaya's Path ($7.99)
Let's clear up the mystery surrounding Fragrant Story, a late-arriving Nintendo 3DS title. Initial releases were shockingly short, but that was due to a rushed launch. This version is the fully updated, complete experience, offering a solid tactical RPG adventure lasting well over ten hours. A great value at eight dollars for fans of the genre.
Quack Jump ($3.99)
A straightforward platformer with 40 levels and evolving mechanics to keep things engaging. A fun, affordable option at four dollars.
Underground Station ($7.90)
An idle game where you work in a dungeon to pay off debts. It might not be visually stunning, but it's a decent option for a less demanding gaming session.
Sales News
(North American eShop, US Prices)
The Limited Run Games sale continues, offering a nice selection of their unique titles. There are also sales on several Team17 games. Note that the Front Mission remake sale is ending soon, so grab them while you can if you're interested.
