Aquarium for DS is a game where you look after fish in an aquarium.
This game is special because this is the worst reviewed game on IGN at an ugly 1/100. I think that is quite harsh.
The game had no tutorial and somethings you need to know are in the manual. I say somethings because it doesn't tell you everything you need to know.That reminds me of atari 2600 games where the game has no tutorial other then a manual. This game is usually trial and error like slime rancher, but the difference is slime rancher trial and error (refering to largos) was optional and the game gave you a tutorial that helped set you into the game. This game has no tutorial and practically no help or advice in game. I would have been lost entirely, but thanks to someones tutorials on IGN called fishandharvestmoon i was able to do a good job at playing the game.
Overall, the game isn't bad, but it isn't the best it could have been in my opinion. Needs a tutorial for starters.

Subway surfers is an endless runner all about jake & co running from a police officer on a subway.
I do not have a single clue as to how the police officer is still obese, but he definitely has good stamina. Kudos to him.
Of course, many events happen in this game, like board challenges, marathon runs and more, and some are okay, but some aren't the best, like the timed marathon run.
Overall, it's a great time and a classic endless runner, even nowadays.

the sun crossword challenge is a crossword game on DS. Who'd have thought?
This game sucks, i may not be good at basic trivia (unless it's drill music or DS games), but i can confidently say it is bad. Also, the hint system is terrible because there is no punishment or cooldown for spamming the hint button.
Oh well, if you like... it's for you.

Unravel two is all about yarny falling off a ship and finding another yarny. They become friends, and red yarny helps blue yarny find his memories... i think. I'm not very good with environmental storytelling, so i am not too sure about what the story is here.
The game... never had the biggest difficulty spike compared to the first game. In my opinion, the first game is too hard, and the second game is a little bit too easy.
Still a good game, just not as memorable as the first.

Unravel is a 2.5D side scroller about an old lady who wants to remember her past, so yarny goes out on an adventure to find these memories.
There are loads of metaphors to pick apart, for example, yarny tying knots represents the old lady fixing her broken bonds.
The reason this game gets a 9 instead of a 10 is because with the last two levels, the difficulty spike is bigger then the eiffel tower! Love it though.
Forgot to mention, i love the soundtrack. It is fantastic. The soundtrack is composed by frida johnesson, and my favourite song in the game is "rusted apart". The song plays during the level "rust".
Great and sad game. Love it!

MySims kingdom is the second game in the MySims series.
This is the first DS game i ever played, and it is fire. The minigames are either simple or advanced and there is a good variety, the story is decent, there are a couple of side quests for you to do and the characters, aside from being a bit on the rude side, have good personalities.
Honestly, if someone asked me "Animal crossing wild world or my sims kingdom", i would choose my sims in a heartbeat... even though playing wild world one of the most grim experiences i have had in my life so far.
I recommend this game as much as i can muster.

Tomodachi life is a game where you build an island of miis and see what they do.
You make them sing, you can feed them, you can give them different clothes and apartment rooms. Each mii has a personality you give it and this affects how they behave on the island.
I personally love this game, purely because it was the first ever 3DS game i played. Fun fact: in Japanese, Tomodachi means "friend".
Yeah, thus game is my friend. Love it!

Super fruit fall is a puzzle game about moving fruit.
There is not that much going on in this game. From what i played, there is a total of... 20 levels?
There is a campaign- Oh! Sorry, "Arcade mode" with the exact 20 levels and... that's it. No, that is literally it. I suppose it's not bad and has no problems, but... 20 levels?
I don't know how to feel. Played both the wii and DS version, and they aren't very good.

bionicle is a game all about the popular Lego brand: bionicle (who'd have guessed).
The game has many issues, and to put it briefly:
the camera controls are a bit wonky (but you could get used to it)
when you save your game, the words "save successful" stay on screen for 5 hours.
The snowboard controls are worse than bears repeating.
Enemies and mini bosses respawn when you backtrack.
Useful cutscenes are skipable, but the useless cutscenes aren't.
I can, however, point out some good in the game like the start of the game is a good introduction (even though my game bugged and got me stuck on the pause menu, so i had to restart the game), but the game isn't as good as it could of been.
(Please note that none of this is meant in malice, and please don't take offence to this opinion).

Touchmaster is the first of 4 games in the Touchmaster series.
The series is all about minigames you play in an arcade sort of way. Most of Touchmaster 1 is original minigames by midway, and for a first attempt, they did well. The worst aspect of the game for me is the timer, which i wish i could play without, but that's just how it is.
I do love the theme of the game. It feels like a game show! The design is okay overall.
Games alright. If you want a minigame set, this is an okay one.

Lego city undercover is a lego game about a police officer.
This a damn good game! I love playing this game on my switch because... that's the only console i have a copy for.
The reason i gave it a 9 is that the switch port lags a bit, but it's the Nintendo switch, that should be expected. Also, the free ways are annoying in my opinion, some fences you can stand on, but some you can't and i don't like the claiming buildings missions.
Overall, the game is very funny and i love it.

My health coach: Stop smoking with Alan Carr is a DS game about smoking.
it isn't what i originally thought it would be. i thought it would be a book, but it isn't. It's a minigame set. The thing that makes it stand out is that it is themed to stopping your smoking habit.
It's not very good... I reckon because i don't smoke, i don't really get a kick out of it. I know people who smoke, but they still wouldn't use it.
Meh. I think it should've been a book
