Moonlighter
Moonlighter is another rogue-like on Switch which puts an interesting spin on things. In the game, you play as Will from a town named Rynoka. During the day, the player runs his shop, but by night you explore dungeons in support of your business – collecting items to sell and battling enemies as you go.
Shopkeeping requires you to consider Moonlighter’s economy, as customers react to prices differently. Dungeon exploration is fun and addictive, as Moonlighter’s rooms are reminiscent of The Binding of Isaac.
Rooms can quickly become complex, and each time you play the patterns of rooms change, similarly to the caves in Stardew Valley, although there are ways around this.
Moonlighter has four different worlds with unique enemies in each, and a guardian boss at the end of each world. There are five weapon types such as swords and bows, and you can select two of these at any one time to switch between.
Moonlighter’s gorgeous pixelated art style is like a more retro Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. The game has a catchy soundtrack to top it all off, conveying different moods dependent on environment and to accompany vendors across town.
