SwitchArcade Roundup: ‘Sinner: Sacrifice for Redemption’ Impressions, ‘Ushiro’ & New eShop Sales
Welcome to your SwitchArcade Roundup for October 23rd, 2018. Your friend Phil is here with a new batch of news, releases and eShop discounts for your Tuesday. Today we take a look at Sinner: Sacrifice for Redemption via some quick impressions. For the time being, let’s start with the Game of the Day.
Game of the Day
Death Squared ($14.99)
No better way to prepare for some impressions of a game filled with constant deaths than a game with a title that is the embodiment of such a concept! It’s Death Squared, a puzzle game for up to four players where you guide color-coded cubes to their similarly colored homes to clear levels.
Death Squared can be played alone, working with two cubes–one assigned to each analog stick of the Switch controller. Sounds easy enough, right" Well, the levels in Death Squared love throwing in buttons and switches (some hidden to the naked eye) that do a multitude of actions, from shifting platforms over for your other cube to traverse, to pulling up spikes on the floor–right where your other cube was resting… now it’s just resting in peace. So, there’s a good amount of trying to juggle controlling both cubes safely through the level while keeping an eye on potential hazards.
You can also opt to play with a friend in the main campaign, but whereas multitasking was needed in solo play, good communication is the key in co-op. (And no, “Move THIS way, you dumb s%@#" is NOT good communication!)...
