#FREDDY SPAGHETTI GAME REVIEW UPGRADE#
You can collect coins as you go and use them to upgrade your ship. There are more than forty different enemies and obstacles to deal with along the way. You get three different worlds to blast your way through, each capped off with a boss battle. Perhaps worse, the price on this one isn’t as competitive as the last Dininho game. Now he seems to have found his way into a vertically-scrolling shoot-em-up, another terribly crowded genre on the Switch. The last time we saw Dininho, he was starring in a low-cost but reasonably enjoyable side-scrolling platformer. Not the most difficult game Lightwood has put out, but the clever red herrings are interesting in how they demonstrate your cognitive biases.

There are a whopping 150 puzzles to solve in all. As is always the case with games from this developer, Gaps by POWGI will keep you busy for hours on end if you get into the kind of puzzle it’s offering. You are then rewarded with a dreadful joke or pun from Powgi the Dog, and head on your way. The idea here is that you have to fill in the missing letters on a list of words, and then use those filled-in letters to make a word. Here’s the latest word puzzle game from the folks at Lightwood Games. I doubt it’s a great game or anything, but if you’re looking for a laugh this will probably give you a fiver’s worth. Let’s just hope this game is releasing in a more stable state than the first one did. The first game was stupid fun in that “weird physics game" sense, and I expect the second game will deliver on that front as well. This time, our heroic sentient strand of spaghetti has a job! Take the goofy 3D spaghetti action to the workplace and see how hard it is to get by when you’re nothing but a limp piece of pasta.

I guess that first Freddy Spaghetti went over well, because now we’ve got a sequel. Let’s get into those games! New Releases Freddy Spaghetti 2 ($4.99) Enough to save the day? I’ll leave that up to you.

So perhaps we should take the last couple of days as a bit of mercy for our wallets. Your eyes will goggle at how many awesome games are hitting. Seriously, next week has so many big names coming out. If you thought yesterday’s batch of new releases was rough, today sure isn’t going to impress you. Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for July 23rd, 2021.
