Rhythm Sprout review

System: Switch
Release Date: February 1, 2023
Developer: SURT
Publisher: tinyBuild


It takes a certain type of creative mind to look at the vegetables on display in their grocery store produce aisle and decide, “finally – the protagonist for my story-driven rhythm game!” That level of kookiness is the driving force behind Rhythm Sprout, a delightfully bonkers rhythm-action game in which an onion wearing headphones and a tracksuit slaughters various edible enemies to the beat of a wide range of music.

A classification listing for Metroid Prime Remastered has some fans wondering if the game was ready to go as early as 2021.

Monorail Stories release date

A listing on the eShop has given us a final release date for Monorail Stories on Switch. Freedom Games will be publishing it on March 23, 2023.
