The Sleep Mode Settings now include a 15-minute option for auto-sleep when connected to a television. Additionally, Korean support is added for the Switch Parental controls intro video.

[Preview] Roman Sands RE:Build
Posted on 8 months ago by Nicholas Serpa in Previews, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Roman Sands RE:Build is one of the strangest games I’ve played in a while, and that’s saying something, because I’ve played a lot of weird games lately. On a surface level, this first-person adventure appears to be an eccentric experience about performing menial tasks for the entitled guests of a strange luxury resort. It quickly becomes apparent that there’s much more going on behind the scenes: time seems to be looping, and also, the apocalypse might be nigh – or did it already happen? Despite having demoed this game twice now, I’m still not entirely sure what it’s about, but I can confidently say I’ve never played anything quite like it.
