It features articles, reviews, new releases, and sales, thereby providing the latest information on top-quality video games.

Reviews of Video Games
The Case of the Golden Idol
According to the review, The Case of the Golden Idol is unique, engaging, and rewarding. It is a detective game that requires players to work their way towards the eureka moment, where everything falls into place. The game respects the intelligence of the player enough to make them take notes and plan things out. With the arrival of The Spider of Lanka DLC on the Nintendo Switch, the game is even more impressive. However, the touch targets can be a bit small on the Switch Lite system, which makes it a recommended option to play with button controls. The gameplay and controller support are fantastic, making The Case of the Golden Idol an essential game with a 5/5 rating.
Maquette
Maquette is another game reviewed, featuring first-person puzzles with a lovely aesthetic and good music. However, the game has some technical issues, making it less than perfect. The game’s puzzles vary in quality, but its aesthetic is impressive, and the narrative is touching. It is worth investing time, but players should be wary of its technical problems on the Nintendo Switch, earning it a 3.5/5 rating.
We Love Katamari REROLL + Royal Reverie
In the world of gaming, We Love Katamari is a widely loved and immensely popular franchise. The review indicates that it is a fine sequel that could have phoned it in but chose to do more. The soundtrack is impressive and adds value to the overall gaming experience, while the original control scheme is unique to the game. The game is relaxing, ridiculous, and absurdly fun as you explore different levels. The review suggests that players already familiar with the original Katamari Damacy will like We Love Katamari, and it is a more than acceptable way to experience the sequel with a 4/5 rating.
New Releases
In keeping with its innovative edge, the Nintendo Switch has seen the release of several new games. Smushi Come Home is a 3D platformer with wholesome light puzzles, while Sqroma is a puzzle action game. Flannel Amethyst is a 3D platformer with ten different levels, and Bloo Kid features scrolling platformer action in the series with ninety-six levels spread across eight different worlds. The Sin is a horror tale set in a Russian village with an absorbing narrative about folklore, and Zero-G Gunfight is a simple arena shooter. In contrast, Anime Beauty Girl Puzzle is an absurdly overpriced puzzle game that is best avoided.
Sales
The Nintendo Switch is widely known for its sales campaign, with IGS Classic Arcade Collection and NIS America running several discounts on various game titles. The Lost Child is a do-or-die discount for gamers as it will be delisted on June 18th. However, an assortment of RPGs and other fantastic game titles are wrapping up their latest sales, so it is worthwhile getting on board before they end.
Conclusion
The Nintendo Switch continues to be a valuable platform for video games enthusiasts, with the SwitchArcade Round-Up providing the latest information on new releases, reviews and sales. The latest review indicates that The Case of the Golden Idol is a very unique experience, We Love Katamari is a fine sequel that adds more to the franchise, and Maquette needs more optimization work. The new releases are a mixed bag, with some games being successful in the market and others less so. The sales campaigns are actively underway, with IGS Classic Arcade Collection and NIS America running several discounts on various game titles. The world of gaming continues to evolve and innovate, and this latest edition of the SwitchArcade Round-Up has provided a valuable snapshot of the latest
