Platform: Nintendo Switch
Release date: 2018

What is it about?
Its about a girl climbing the top of a mountain and facing her inner demons

What I liked?
The controls are spot on. You need to bee precise in handling the terrain
The storyline is very interesting. It deals with depression and your inner fears
Each part of the mountain has a unique element that you need to master  as well as powerups that help you to move forward
Dying sucks but the game makes it fun/ Trying to figure out the best way to get onto an obstacle.

What I didn't liked?
The joycons are not built for prescise directional handling. You actually need a d-pad to navigate to some tricky sections.
They say the extra items aren't optional but you can't advance to the epilogue if you don't collect the hidden items.

Status: Climb the peak and finish the main story with 22 Strawberries and 1380 deaths

Fun Factor: It's a hard but rewarding game to play. Recommended

What is it about?
The King of the Cosmos has knock down the stars and moons and its up to the Prince to restore everything by rolling a ball into the shape of the star

What I liked?
Rolling the Katamari is therapeutic. Watching things stuck on  to it is surprisingly fun.
Making the ball bigger and bigger.

What I didn't liked?
For a 14 year old game the controller still sucks. The Katamari does not handle well when its to big
Getting stuck when you are too big

Status: Finish the game until the end credits. Got the Katamari into 450m

Fun Factor: A game where you need to roll and roll without that much thinking. Awesome
