3DS eShop

Brunch Panic intro

Posted on 10 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, Videos | 0 comments



Arc System Works is debuting its new 3DS eShop game, Swords & Darkness, at the Tokyo Game Show. The action RPG involves knights attempting to save the kingdom of Athelstern.

Swords & Darkness features 2D side-scrolling gameplay. You’ll be able to perform a directional block with your shield, and extra chain damage can be dished out to enemies by moving above downed foes and performing downward slashes. As far as the RPG elements go, players can level up, swap out equipment and magic, and learn special moves.

It wasn’t mentioned in yesterday’s Nintendo Download report, but Cut the Rope is now available on the 3DS eShop. The game can be purchased for $9.99. Seems rather pricey given how much it costs on iOS, but the price may be worth it for some!

If you’re in search of excellently executed ancillaries that push the puzzle genre past its minimally-accepted bounds, you’ll have to wait until Jupiter Corporation (Picross DS) gets the wigglin’ for T-Jigglin’.

Tangram game, perfect for boy and son, finally has a representative on the 3DS eShop! The ancient Chinese puzzler with seemingly infinite (though absolutely finite) configurations composed from the same eight blocks mirrors LEGO not only in open-endedness via face-value simplicity and accessibility, but as a developmental catalyst for pattern recognition and critical thinking in little children. With the glut of quality time-wasting and brain-exercising works available not only amongst the eShop, but the collaborative Internet as a whole, is the jungle-themed Tangram Style worthy of a place in your digital collection? Does it manage to power past the replacement-level iterative puzzler black hole problem that oh-so many no-name puzzle games fail to conquer?

While Tangram Style certainly passes the base litmus test as a fundamental tangram simulator, too many bush-league problems mar what should have been an easy game to push through the development process. Tangram Style does not indeed exceed the bounds of the aforementioned black hole, and should only be purchased by T-Gram aficionados in search of familiarity– not puzzleheads in search of another brainy rush.


Two additional games are sale on the 3DS eShop.

First, Big Bass Arcade: No Limit can be purchased for $4.99 until October 3. Soccer Up 3D is also on sale for $3.99 until October 24.
