Hazelnut Hex Review - Nintendo Switch

[@fruitbatsalad]

You mentioned not being able to skip dialogue in cutscenes - but you can skip cutscenes by holding shot+bomb. You don't have to mash through each line of dialogue. I haven't tried skipping the credits, because they're interactive so I just think of them as part of the game. Does the + button not bring up the main menu there? That's weird. Anyway, I've really been enjoying the game. I thought it had the right amount of depth for the price. It also has one of the best soundtracks I've heard lately.

Oh, really, that's good to know. I'll try it next time I play.

Always here for a new SoS video. Surprised to see how this game has been universally received with surprise and appreciation by the community. I have not picked it up yet, but I certainly will.

Thanks I was thinking about getting this game but no one reviewed it.

[@finerthings46]

nice review pal. I agree, great game and i enjoy it alot but lacks the content, no unlocks, modes etc. Would like to see a No.2 with more too it.

No online leader boards... why?!

[@scienceandmatter8739]

Can you make a Shmups on Steam section/channel/episode?

[@ShmupsOnSwitch]

I made one! Quite a long time ago, but a lot of the games are still only on Steam and, are mostly still the ones I consider the best available on the platform: kzbin.info/www/bejne/npDJg5qgpdZ5ers

I've only really dabbled in some shmups available on the NSO app, so would this be a good game for people relatively new to the genre? Thanks for the review.

[@ShmupsOnSwitch]

Not a bad one to start with. I'd also recommend Sophstar. Most modern shmups are a lot more accessible these days, with training and/or novice options.

[@NuiYabuko]

@@ShmupsOnSwitch Thanks for the reply. I wishlisted Sophstar. ^^ Hazelnut Hex is quite cheap on the European eShop right now, so I might take the plunge.

Looks like a game targeted towards 6 year old girls.

[@ShmupsOnSwitch]

Yeah, when I first saw the trailer, I didn't think it was going to be up to much. Happy to have been wrong though!

[@NuiYabuko]

You say that like it's a bad thing.
