Trigger Dungeon Switch NSP Free Download Ever found yourself wishing that games like The Legend of Zelda featured a boatload of badass guns in addition to its staple Master Sword? Well, no, neither have we, if we’re being honest. But there’s clearly a market for such a game, as eastasiasoft’s Trigger Witch proves. Part adventure RPG, part twin-stick shooter, this juxtaposition of genres proves successful, resulting in a likeable and funny experience, but one that falls short of excellent shooting contemporaries like Enter the Gungeon. You take on the role of Colette, an aspiring witch who must pass the ‘Gauntlet’ – a series of tests that essentially make up the game’s tutorial section – in order to join The Clip, a revered group of gun-wielding witches who protect the realm.

Following this, a mysterious Man in Black enters the world via a rift, thus launching Colette on an adventure to save her family and friends. The setup, overall, is intriguing, and the characters are well written for the most part, building up a story that has genuine weight. As you explore the land the map itself will start to reveal itself, introducing new biomes with varying weather patterns. Enemies and obstacles litter the environment, and you’ll need to utilise a growing arsenal of guns to wipe them out. Starting off with a standard handgun, you’ll add to this with an automatic rifle, a grenade launcher, and more. It’s pretty exciting when you discover a new gun, but the frequency at which this occurs could be improved; it just feels a bit slow when compared to games within the ‘roguelike’ genre.

The twin-stick mechanics feel fairly standard for the most part.

The handgun can be reloaded at will and contains unlimited ammunition. The other weapons require a bit more work: once you’ve run out of bullets you’ll need to swap over to a different weapon, allowing your spent ammo to build back up over time. It’s a neat way of encouraging you to try out your various weapons, but can certainly feel a bit fiddly when you’re just starting out. Ultimately, the gameplay starts off strong, but quickly feels a tad ‘samey’ after a while. Exploration is encouraged, but the game’s ‘dungeons’ normally require you to wipe out all enemies within one area before allowing you to progress to the next, leading to some lengthy and repetitive sessions of scouring every inch of a dungeon to find the boss.

The game also often shifts into a scrolling ‘shmup’, with Colette riding on the back of a broomstick, but even these sections can lack variety at times. What is impressive, however, is the game’s accessibility options. By default, Trigger Witch is a gorey affair, with blood coating the ground as you gun down your enemies; if you wish, though, you can turn this off entirely, making the game more or less suitable for a younger audience. Not only that, but you can completely customise how much damage Colette gives and receives, opening up a good amount of difficulty options.

Shoot your way through this grand adventure.

With as many games as are out there now, it sometimes seems like every idea has been done before. So many seem like iterations on the same formula. Sometimes however, a game comes along that fuses two of those ideas and creates something that feels new and really fresh. Trigger Witch takes the frequently used formula of a twin-stick shooter and turns it on its head by applying that gameplay to a big, sweeping adventure game. You play as a witch who’s part of an order that specializes in firearms and goes on a quest to save the world, reminiscent of a classic Zelda game. The journey takes place across a massive world with a number of dungeon-like areas full of enemies to kill and keys to find. Undead Horde Switch NSP

While that type of game may sound familiar, the shooter combat really makes it feel unique. With a good variety of guns to acquire along the way and multiple paths to upgrade and customize them, there are different ways to approach fights, and the search for upgrade components pushes you to explore the overworld. Combat, while generally simple, feels very satisfying, and the way you recharge your health-restoring potions by defeating enemies keeps the pace pumping and compels you to keep going forward. That said, while the combat feels satisfying, the dungeon design can be repetitive at times. Very reminiscent of an old-school Zelda game, there’s a lot of defeating enemies to open doors and searching for keys.

There are tweaks along the way

including more complex ways to activate switches and some clever puzzles in the later dungeons, but it still feels very similar for long stretches. The 2D sprite graphics are very charming, and the music feels very suitable for a game like this, with an inspiring, happy tune in the overworld and more tense themes in the dungeons. There’s sometimes a bit too much dialogue, but the story takes some interesting twists, including a particularly memorable one near the end. The main quest lasts about 10 hours, and can be played in 2 player local co-op, which I was unable to try, with the option of a New Game+ mode that lets you keep all your weapons and upgrades, and it’s fun to traverse the world again as a superpowered witch.

By combining two classic ideas, twin-stick shooting and action-adventure, Trigger Witch concocts a video game potion that tastes distinct and stays flavorful throughout. While it does carry over a few of the flaws of those games, the combat is solid enough that it’s easy to look past them. This troll and rage hardcore platformer game promises an infuriatingly difficult and maddening experience. It is rumoured that there is an ending and that it is possible to beat the game without dying. Good luck with that. Undead & Beyond Switch NSP
