Frostbite’, Plus Today’s Other Releases and Sales – TouchArcade

Published:


Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for May 10th, 2024. In today’s article, we’re closing out the week with a look at the remaining releases hitting the eShop today and one news story from Mikhail. No need for an abbreviated take this time; there are only four games total. We summarize most of them, throw one in the bins, and then mosey on over to the sales corner. There we find our lists of new sales and discounts set to expire over the weekend. Let’s finish things up!

Sea of Stars Physical Release Out Now

Sabotage Studio and iam8bit have finally released a retail edition of last year’s RPG Sea of Stars. I imported the Japanese physical release on Switch because I didn’t want to wait, but if you did wait, you can order it now for $39.99 at online and offline retailers. The physical release includes a double-sided poster. In addition to the Switch (and other consoles) physical release, the Sea of Stars soundtrack is up for pre-order on vinyl featuring a selection of tracks from Eric W Brown and Yasunori Mitsuda.-Mikhail Madnani

New Releases

QUALIA “The Path of Promise” ($19.99)

A visual novel about an intelligent robot built in the form of a busty maid girl. I mean, sure. Video games. She ends up being the maid in the house of a socially awkward genius doctor, and love blooms. I mean, sure. Video games. The art seems good for this kind of affair, and the localization seems adequate. You probably know whether it’s your kind of thing or not, so I’ll leave it at that. For now, anyway. Somehow, I ended up agreeing to review this game. Look forward to it!

Kinduo 2 – Frostbite ($4.99)

The cute puzzle-platformer returns for fifty more stages of hot and cool fun. There are two different characters, each with their own abilities that you’ll have to make use of in order to clear the stage. You can play alone or pull in a friend to control the other character in local multiplayer. Not a bad way to spend a fiver at all.

Hotel Hustle ($10.99)

A chaotic time management game for up to two players via local multiplayer, this time with a hotel theme. Take care of the needs of the guests, whatever they may be, and try to make it through all twenty-five stages. There’s a certain baseline level of enjoyment you can have with a game like this no matter how it’s executed, so long as you have a friend playing with you. This one manages at least that much. Keep in mind it’s a RedDeer release, so wait for the deep discount that might already be in effect by the time you read this.

The Bin Bunch

Mars Farming 2034 ($9.99)

Sales

Some decent games in the inbox today, including the likes of Gloomhaven, Paradise Killer, Alwa’s Legacy, and the recently-updated A Highland Song.
