I’ve spent over 100 hours in Pokémon Pokopia, and I’ll say it up front: whatever Animal Crossing does next will have big shoes to fill.  The game landed an average of 89 on Metacritic, which put it at number one for 2026 reviews, and that made it the highest-rated Pokémon game in the franchise’s 30-year history. TLDR: if you have a Switch 2 and you don’t have this game, you’re missing out. Here’s why!  What Is the Pokopia Game, Exactly? If you’re expecting to start as a 10-year-old, knock out stray Pokémon, and do gym battles, you can drop that idea right now. Where we are going is cozy land, full-on weapons-grade whimsy-maxxing.  In the Pokopia game, you play as Ditto instead of a trainer, and there are no gym battles, levels, or trainer fights. In fact, all the towns are empty, and there is no tall grass to hunt for mons.  Our job here is to bring the pokemon back, build up abandoned towns, and terraform the land as we see fit. Finders keepers, am I right? And we definitely found all five towns first… at least in the last 100 years.  If it’s not obviousI’m trying really hard not to spoil the game for you. I know you have questions. Where did the people go? Why are the cities abandoned? Terraforming? No Battles?! What’s going on? Breathe, we are whimsy-maxxing hard today.  Who Should You Give Pokopia To? Here’s the beauty of a gift that isn’t a battle game: anyone can play it. Your cousin who quit Pokémon at Gen 2, your partner who lives in Animal Crossing, your little brother who just wants to look at Pikachu. All of them get it in ten minutes. It works for Animal Crossing fans who want more to do, Minecraft players tired of survival modes, and lapsed Pokémon fans who missed the era of strange spin-offs. That said, it’s a Switch 2 exclusive, so double-check before you wrap anything. Also skip it for someone who wants battles or a challenge curve, because they’ll bounce off it. Pokopia’s Regions Are a Treat to the Eyes  Pokopia’s regions do most of the heavy lifting on the atmosphere of this game. There are four story areas: Withered Wastelands, Bleak Beach, Rocky Ridges, and Sparkling Skylands, plus Palette Town as a fifth permanent town.  The game uses the Kanto region in a far-off future with its best days behind it. Each of these towns is in a state of disrepair and has been severely neglected. Pokémon centers have crumbled, houses only exist in theory and paintings, and the environment do be looking dry, really, really dry.  That’s where we come in: we remove obstacles, chop down trees, water the grass, build back tall grass with over 200 variations to bring the pokémon back from hiding, and rebuild all that crumbles. This is casual gaming at its finest, folks, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!  You start in Withered Wastelands, then take Bleak Beach and Rocky Ridges in either order, and finish with Sparkling Skylands. Or you do whatever well you damn please, I decided to go straight to the beach and discovered electricity so my pokémon and I in other Pokopia regions could stop living in the Stone Age!  HonestlyI haven’t been this excited since the Pokemon Fire Red re-re-re-release on the Switch, and unlike that game, this one offers hundreds of hours of new content for the price. Pokopia’s Pokémon Population is Over 300! Ready to start your real estate empire with our Pokémon Pokopia review? Here’s how the housing market works. You run around the place, find hints about which habitats attract which species. You build the habitats, you wait, and sometimes a mon just strolls in like it’s been here the whole time. Some of Pokopia’s Pokémon, especially starters, will share a simple tall grass. While others, like that Dragonite in the picture, will demand a boat. Don’t even get me started on Meowth because he will have you running a government, providing electricity, cleaning the streets, building houses, and more before he’s happy.  That’s not all either! Pokopia’s unique Pokémon steal the show with their backstories and tastes. Peakychu, a Pikachu that’s lost its electric charge and gone pale, and Chef Dente, a Greedent with a taste for cooking, and DJ Rotom with his beats are my favorites here.  Not everyone gets that much love, though, Snorlax barely moves and has been engulfed in moss to become Mosslax and I have no clue what Smeargle was up to all alone when I found him painting.   Your Abilities in Pokopia Make or Break Your Experiences  Remember when I said Ditto is the main character? Good! Thanks for paying attention. So Ditto’s whole thing is copying, and it borrows moves from the Pokémon it befriends. The core set is Water Gun, Rock Smash, Strength, Cut, and Leafage. If it’s not obvious, your Pokémon friends have jobs too, and those are called specialties, which is a different system. Chef Dente can cook up a feast and get others to help, and Trubbish’s Recycle specialty turns non-burnable glass into Iron Ore and Wastepaper into Paper. Piplup can help you clean toxic mud off of the streets.  And the game doesn’t dump it all on you. Things start small with patches of tall grass and fields of flowers, then grow into housing, electricity, farming, and resource refinement. That’s why my beach detour worked out: I found electricity early, and everybody got a lamp, some music, and streetlights!  Cooking For This Pokémon Pokopia Review Made So Much Sense  I did not expect to care about cooking in a Pokémon game. Then I started helping Chef Dente and got my sous chef skills in order. Now I can cook bread from peas, such are the benefits of whimsy-maxxing. Cooking isn’t a side quest, it plugs straight into the abilities - [Animal Crossing New Leaf Did Amiibo Better Than You Remember](https://levelandleague.com/animal-crossing-new-leaf-did-amiibo-better-than-you-remember/): Animal Crossing: New Leaf didn’t need Amiibo to be one of the best games on the 3DS, but Nintendo’s Welcome amiibo update gave the little cards a surprisingly important role in the town-building experience. If you have played New Horizons, you probably remember Animal Crossing amiibo cards as a convenient way to get specific villagers onto your island. But is that anything more than simply putting a character and off-brand furniture as eye candy? Let’s find out!  Getting The Villagers You Actually Want The biggest problem with Animal Crossing New Leaf is also part of its charm, you don’t have much of a say over who moves into your town. That’s fun until the game decides to give you three villagers you don’t particularly care about. Then, when you finally get the option to kick someone out, it decides your oldest villager should go rather than the one you’ve been desperately trying to get rid of. For around $6, an Animal Crossing amiibo card could bring a specific villager to the campground, giving me a much more reliable way to get them into my town instead of leaving everything to the whims of the game’s RNG. What I liked most, though, was that these characters weren’t all cookie-cutter nice guys either. Some would barely tolerate you and others were downright weird.  Quick NoteImagine the shock: I’m not buying Animal Crossing amiibo cards just to watch a character pop onto the screen for five seconds and proceed to sit around! And they wouldn’t even sit on the benches you slaved over either, they would sit on the ground!  The Campground Was More Than An Amiibo Menu The Welcome amiibo update added the campground as a proper location, and Amiibo visitors could show up in their own RVs. You could walk over, see who was there, talk to them, and check out the furniture they had available. That sounds fairly basic now, but it worked because it was integrated into the town. I wasn’t opening some separate Amiibo interface, scanning a card, collecting my reward and forgetting about it. I was walking into the campground because there might actually be something worth seeing. The RVs also gave me another reason to care about specific characters. Their furniture collections were tied to the characters themselves, so finding a particular visitor could mean finding something I actually wanted for my house. The Furniture Was Half The Fun New Leaf already has an enormous amount of furniture, but the Amiibo-related items gave me another collection to work toward. The RVs could contain furniture that wasn’t simply sitting in the normal shops waiting for me to stumble across it. I could scan a character, visit their RV, and browse what they had available. That made collecting Animal Crossing amiibo cards feel much more connected to the actual game. I wasn’t collecting cards for the sake of having cards. I was collecting characters because they could unlock things I wanted in my town. And if you’re the sort of person who spends an unreasonable amount of time decorating your house in Animal Crossing, that is a dangerous rabbit hole to go down, trust you me. New Leaf Made Amiibo Feel Like Part Of The Town I think this is where the difference between Animal Crossing: New Leaf and New Horizons becomes most obvious. The original 3DS game made Amiibo feel like another part of the town, while New Horizons mostly turned them into a useful tool for managing your villager roster.  The Animal Crossing New Horizons Amiibo cards are incredibly useful for particular villagers, especially when I’m sick of island hopping and nuking my Dodo Miles.  In Animal Crossing New Leaf, though, I had more reason to care about what happened after the scan because the character actually had somewhere to go and something for me to do when they arrived. The campground and RVs are a big part of that. I could walk over, see who was visiting, check out their RV and browse the furniture they had brought with them. Suddenly, Animal Crossing amiibo cards weren’t just a way of getting a specific villager but another excuse to wander around my town. That’s one of the things I appreciate most about the Animal Crossing New Leaf 3DS experience looking back. The Amiibo content doesn’t feel like it was bolted onto the game from the outside. It fits into the same slow routine of checking shops, visiting villagers, wandering around town, and dictating terms to residents as their “elected” Mayor! So, Did Animal Crossing: New Leaf Really Do Amiibo Better? Honestly, I couldn’t tell you, because I don’t like Animal Crossing villagers enough to care. That’s probably one of the many reasons I never felt particularly tempted to collect Animal Crossing amiibo cards in the first place.  To me, most of these characters are basically action figures for my wall that occasionally come to life, run around for a bit, sing a song, and then fail miserably at catching a butterfly directly in front of me. Then there’s the whole business of actually collecting the cards. Buying sealed packs means I don’t even know whether I’m going to get the one I want. At that point, if I wanted to gamble, I’d either hit RainBet or start ripping open New Leaf Amiibo packs because at least those villagers interact with each other. And just when I was getting desperate, I coughed up $70 to get a Pokemon Pokopia Review on the Switch 2 and basically never looked back. - [Fallout 3 and New Vegas Remasters Confirmed](https://levelandleague.com/fallout-3-and-new-vegas-remasters-confirmed/): Asha Sharma seems like the gift that keeps on giving. Ever since Microsoft’s gaming leadership started talking more openly about getting its biggest franchises into players’ hands faster, this latest Bethesda update feels less like a surprise and more like the natural next step.  If you’ve followed Bethesda over the last decade, none of this should be particularly shocking. My disappointment with Bethesda has been public knowledge for a while now, and it isn’t exactly some scorching hot take. It’s become the general consensus for a reason.  Bethesda Game Studios simply hasn’t released any new single-player RPGs in recent years, and expecting fans to patiently wait another decade for Fallout 5 was never going to be a winning strategy. I’m just going to exclude Starfield after the whole fiasco, and we will swiftly move on to better news now. Bethesda’s Fallout 5 Is Officially Moving, But Don’t Start Counting Days The headline announcement is exactly what people wanted to hear: Bethesda’s Fallout 5 is officially in pre-production. The studio once again confirmed that The Elder Scrolls VI remains its primary focus, with most of Bethesda Game Studios still working on Tamriel rather than the wasteland. Fallout 5 is what Bethesda calls its “long-range destination,” which is a polite way of saying you shouldn’t expect to be playing it anytime soon. That said, pre-production is where the major decisions start happening. World concepts, gameplay systems, technical planning, and the overall direction of the project all begin taking shape here.  Bethesda also confirmed that both The Elder Scrolls VI and Bethesda Fallout 5 will use Creation Engine 3, which should hopefully mean the studio isn’t rebuilding its technology from scratch every single generation. We still know absolutely nothing about where Fallout 5 is set, who we’ll be playing as, or even what platforms it’ll launch on. If you see anyone confidently talking about the game’s location or story, they’re guessing just as much as everyone else. The Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas Remaster Feel Like the Right Call If I’m being honest, the announcement of a Fallout 3 remaster and Fallout New Vegas remaster was probably the least surprising part of the entire presentation. Bethesda has a massive gap to fill before Fallout 5 arrives, and revisiting two of the franchise’s most beloved games is a sensible way to keep the series alive without rushing a brand-new RPG out the door. Fallout 3 introduced an entire generation of players to Bethesda’s version of the wasteland, while New Vegas has only become more respected with age. Fifteen years later, it’s still the benchmark many fans use when talking about player choice, role-playing, and world-building. For me, the most exciting part of Bethesda’s update wasn’t Fallout 5 or even the remasters. It was the confirmation that Obsidian Entertainment is developing another Fallout project. I am just as stoked as any other fan to know Obsidian Studios is going to be working on their golden goose again after all these years. Considering the small budget and bootstrapped environment that created decent titles like The Outer Worlds and its sequel, I know they have what it takes to pull this off. Plus, no more shall we have to look for a Fallout: New Vegas modding guide to get by!  My Oblivion Remastered Experience Left Me Wanting More As excited as I am to revisit both games, I do think players should approach these announcements with a healthy amount of caution. I recently played through the new Oblivion remaster. While I enjoyed finally stepping back into Cyrodiil, I walked away feeling like it was a fan-made project, maybe because of Unreal Engine. Maybe because of the hilarious running animation, you’ll just have to find out why by reading that article.  But the best part is, we have all been looking for a prettier version of Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout 3. If Bethesda is simply increasing the resolution and adding better lighting while leaving everything else untouched, that’s one thing. If it’s rebuilding that NCR ranger armour from scratch and adding a new 357 magnum revolver, I’d be happy.  It Finally Feels Like Fallout Has a Future Again (And We Are A Part of It) More than anything else, this announcement tells me Bethesda will finally get some divine retribution for pumping out Skyrim for your Samsung Smart Fridge for the 15th time. Instead of forcing Fallout fans to sit through another decade-long silence while The Elder Scrolls VI takes centre stage, the company is spreading the workload around.  Bethesda Game Studios continues developing Elder Scrolls VI, Fallout 5 slowly moves through pre-production, and Obsidian gets its own Fallout project that fans will die for. Why does this W feel so rare? It’s almost like a Fallout 4 radiant quest, everyone wins, and no one is offended!  - [Top 10 Underrated GBA Games You Should Check Out Today](https://levelandleague.com/top-10-underrated-gba-games-you-should-check-out-today/): What do the best GameBoy Advance games all have in common? They got all the attention they deserved and then some.   We won’t be discussing them today, because we are going deep into uncharted territory in search of GBA games that deserve some more attention. Unsolicited opinions start below so buckle up! Sonic Advance Sonic Advance is one of those underrated GBA games that feels like a true successor to its Genesis predecessors. It captures the rush and momentum of the games while giving Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy their very own unique playstyles.  Pick Sonic, and you’re blazing through Neo Green Hill Zone in seconds, sheer speed carrying you through loops before you’ve even thought about it. Amy can’t curl into a spindash, so the same corridor Sonic burns through in three seconds makes you stop, read the room, and find the right moment to swing the Piko Piko Hammer.  Knuckles ignores the ground entirely, gliding over gaps and scaling walls to find routes the other three never see. Tails just… flies past most of the hard parts. That’s four playthroughs of the same game and guess who decides if you get to cheese the entire level? You!  Fun FactDimps built this to commemorate Sonic’s tenth anniversary, and they went back to the Genesis formula deliberately. The result was something Electronic Gaming Monthly called the best-looking 2D Sonic game at the time. One thing I should warn you about is the cheap deaths. Cosmic Angel Zone will punish you for going fast, which feels like a betrayal of the entire concept, and the underwater boss in Ice Mountain overstays its welcome badly. Yet none of that stopped me from coming back repeatedly and ranking it as one of the best licensed GBA games worth replaying today. Drill Dozer You play as Jill, piloting her powerful drilling mech that can tunnel through walls, break enemies, and discover hidden rooms.  Why is it in a list of underrated GBA games? Drill Dozer has puzzle elements and boss fights where you have to dodge missiles, lasers, and sometimes bombs to start swinging!  Collectibles are tough to find, and the optional levels demand real skill, giving the game more replay value than many of the best Game Boy Advance games. The cartridge for Drill Dozer is slightly bigger than every other GBA game on the shelf. That’s because Game Freak, yes, the Pokémon people, built a rumble motor directly into it. Press the R shoulder button, and the drill spins clockwise. Press L and it reverses. When you drill into something, the cartridge physically vibrates in your hands. In 2006, on a handheld at that, this was genuinely remarkable! Racing Gears Advance Racing Gears Advance feels like it belongs in every talk about the best licensed GBA games, but it rarely gets mentioned. This top-down racer combines fast arcade handling with RPG-like progression and total war!  Racing Gears Advance opens with you choosing between a Dodge Super-8 Hemi, a Lotus Typhoon, and an H2 Hummer, each driven by a wacky licensed character with their own special ability. One driver makes nearby racers spin out on contact. Another gets a speed boost every time they take a hit. Guess which one was my pick? Combat adds another layer of carnage that I crave oh so dearly, with rockets, oil slicks, and other weapons turning races into tactical brawls. Before each race, you spend your earnings on oil slicks, smoke screens, land mines, and nitro boost. It feels balanced and tough without ever feeling unfair, a requirement to get on my underrated GBA games list. The visuals are crisp, the soundtrack keeps the energy high, and the handling feels spot-on. It is the kind of game that never got a sequel but still gets praised today for its smooth controls and replay value. Among racing fans, it’s a cult favorite and easily one of the most underrated GBA games ever made. Lest We ForgetA sequel for Nintendo DS was announced and then quietly cancelled. Nobody, including me, who played Racing Gears Advance has forgotten it. Also, if you’re wondering, I picked the driver ability for better speed, thanks for asking :’).  Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon This one might raise eyebrows, but the Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon game for GBA deserves a spot for effort alone. It’s rough, awkward, and brutally difficult, yet somehow fascinating to me and probably you if you enjoy souls-likes.   The combat feels clunky, and the camera never quite behaves, but there’s something fun about watching a handheld try to capture the movie’s elegant swordplay and atmosphere. Enemies are relentless, and sometimes the controls feel like they’re testing your patience. Still, the animations and compressed af music fit the GBA surprisingly well. You can feel that the developers tried to bring the martial arts spirit of the film to life.  What Keeps it FunMost movie licenses of that era settled for a generic platformer with the film’s logo slapped on the box, and this one at least tried to build combat around the source material’s aesthetic instead of ignoring it. It earns its place on my underrated GBA games list not because it’s great, but because it tried something few licensed games ever attempt, and remarkably, almost pulled it off!  Astro Boy: Omega Factor Astro Boy: Omega Factor deserves to be remembered among the best Game Boy Advance games of all time. It starts as a simple beat ’em up, but soon unfolds into a layered action story about identity and sacrifice. The combat is tight, fast, and full of energy, with projectile attacks, combos, and screen-filling special moves that feel incredibly satisfying. The Omega Factor system makes every encounter matter. Each new character you meet adds to Astro’s abilities, making progression feel personal and meaningful. Combine that with Treasure’s signature bullet-heavy boss fights, and you get one of the most polished and rewarding underrated GBA games ever made. Fun factThe game is stuffed with cameo characters pulled from decades - [I Bought Pokemon Fire Red on the Nintendo Switch So You Don’t Have To](https://levelandleague.com/pokemon-fire-red-nintendo-switch-review/): Nintendo's Pokémon Fire Red and Leaf Green are finally available on Switch without a subscription, and at $20 each, they come with a catch. No Emerald. No Yellow. No Crystal. Just the most recognizable games from each generation sold at the maximum price the Pokémon name can command. Here's whether that's actually worth your money. - [Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Retrospective: The Best Pokemon Remakes So Far?](https://levelandleague.com/pokemon-omega-ruby-vs-alpha-sapphire/): Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire did many things right. They modernised Hoenn beautifully, introduced Mega Evolutions into the region, and added genuinely new content like the Delta Episode. But when we’re talking about the best remake in the series, they fall just short. And the reason is simple, they left too much Emerald on the table. Let me explain.  What Makes a Pokémon Remake the “Best” in My Eyes? Let me ground my argument with what I wanted Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to be. Great remakes don’t just polish old graphics, they: Modernize mechanics Include third-version improvements Add meaningful new content Respect what made the original better over time When people debate the best 3DS Pokémon game, Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire always come up.  But the competition isn’t just other 3DS entries, it’s other remakes like HGSS and FRLG, and that’s where things get complicated.  Why HGSS and FRLG Still Hit HardHeart Gold and Soul Silver feel definitive because they include Crystal’s improvements, and FRLG earns respect for expanding Kanto instead of just repainting it. Fire Red gave us a reimagined Kanto that became the new norm as we grew up with it. Notice how Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee didn’t do that for new players? What Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Did Right As a Pokemon Sapphire 3DS remake and its Ruby counterpart, Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire absolutely nailed presentation. Hoenn didn’t just get cleaned up, it got totally rebuilt from the ground up. The jump into full 3D using the X & Y engine made the region feel alive in a way the originals never could.  My First 10 Hours in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Were MagicalRoutes felt wider, cities felt bigger, and battles felt real instead of just sprites shaking like they were throwing a fit. I still remember getting into Mauville City and being amazed by restaurants and regular people just going about their day. Then there’s Mega Evolution, the true icing on the cake. As a purist who had stopped watching the anime series right before Mega Evolutions came in, I was probably the biggest hater of the feature even without trying it.  I was proven wrong by the 30-hour mark when I realised, instead of feeling like a gimmick stapled on top, it was woven directly into the story. Primal Groudon, Primal Kyogre, and other mega Pokémon in ORAS didn’t feel optional, they felt mythic, like real Gods who could control the weather. Another detail worth mentioning is the Soaring mechanic, which alone changed how Hoenn felt to traverse. Flying over the region with Latios or Latias made me feel like I was actually travelling distances. It was just fast travel, but unlike Skyrim, it sure felt much more immersive than clicking a random point on the map and being teleported there.  And the Delta Episode? That was Pokémon ORAS swinging for something bigger. Yes, it cut Emerald’s Battle Frontier, and I will never get over it, but replacing it with a cinematic Rayquaza storyline was at least ambitious. That’s more than you can say for Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, truly one of the games of all time.  Did They Just Forget Pokémon Emerald Existed?  Here’s where my praise for Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire starts to hit a wall. They are extremely faithful remakes of Ruby and Sapphire, and that’s part of the problem. Because Emerald existed, and Emerald wasn’t just some “third version bonus.” It was Hoenn refined. The pacing felt tighter, gym leader rosters were smarter, both Team Aqua and Team Magma had real presence, and the region felt more complete instead of split between two versions. And then there’s the Battle Frontier, which never saw the light of day.  That alone changes the conversation. Emerald gave you something to sink real time into after the credits rolled. Not just a legendary hunt, not just endless and mindless rematches, but a full challenge ecosystem that rewarded experimentation and mastery. I’ve lost more hours than I’d like to admit in that place. Speaking of GBA RemakesHave you tried Pokémon Ash Gray or Pokémon Fire Ash? These Pokémon ROM Hacks follow Ash’s journey through Kanto, Johto, and more. Check out our comparison guide to learn more. So when Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire skipped most of that, it didn’t feel neutral. It felt like a genuine GameFreak regression moment that has plagued subsequent remasters. They really took the “two Ls make a W” idea seriously and ended up with just losses.  Yes, ORAS added the Delta Episode, soaring was incredible, and Mega Evolution fit Hoenn beautifully. But at the same time, it quietly erased the version of Hoenn that already solved many of the originals’ rough edges. If I’m being honest with myself, I would choose ORAS over the original Ruby and Sapphire every time. It’s smoother, faster, and more modern. But if I’m choosing the most complete Hoenn experience? I still end up thinking about Emerald. And that’s the small gap that keeps ORAS from being the best remake in the series. Why ORAS Still Gets Away With It (Unlike BDSP) What’s interesting is that the criticism people throw at Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is almost identical to what hit Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl when they came out. Both sets of remakes chose to focus strictly on the original two versions. Both largely ignored the improvements introduced in their respective third versions, Emerald and Platinum. On paper, that’s the same mistake. But the difference is how it feels when you actually play them. With BDSP, the absence of Platinum content feels exposed. It doesn’t modernise Sinnoh, it doesn’t reimagine anything boldly, and it doesn’t add enough new substance to distract you from what’s missing. I mean, the Grand Underground and Fairy-type Mons are cool but ultimately forgettable.  Let’s Be HonestThey saw how well The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening was doing and thought the art style - [Kingdom Two Crowns with All DLC Review + Updated 2026 Guide](https://levelandleague.com/kingdom-two-crowns-with-all-dlc-review-updated-2026-guide/): Kingdom Two Crowns is the most complete and confident entry in the series, blending minimalist strategy with long-term progression that finally feels rewarding. From surviving brutal winters to choosing the right DLC, this review breaks down how Kingdom 2 Crowns really plays across its base game, Shogun, Dead Lands, Norse Lands, and why Call of Olympus stands above the rest. - [Half Sword’s Disappointing Release: Another Hiccup For The Indie Gaming Community?](https://levelandleague.com/half-swords-disappointing-release-another-hiccup-for-the-indie-gaming-community/): The Half Sword release expands on the demo with new maps, a weaponsmith crafting system, roguelike progression, and a lively hub filled with strange characters. While these additions add welcome structure, the physics-based combat feels less stable than before. Inconsistent hit detection, awkward armour interactions, and unreliable weapon feedback make this ambitious medieval brawler feel rougher than expected. - [Virat Kohli Smashes Multiple Records in India-New Zealand ODI Series](https://levelandleague.com/virat-kohli-smashes-multiple-records-in-india-new-zealand-odi-series/): Virat Kohli has once again etched his name into the history books during the recently concluded India vs. New Zealand bilateral series, putting together a body of work that stood out across the contest. Here’s a breakdown of the major records Kohli broke throughout the series. Virat Kohli’s New Records Since the post-lockdown phase, Kohli has constantly found himself under scrutiny, including questions around his form, selection, and longevity, which followed him everywhere. But ever since his 71st international century against Afghanistan (122* off 61 balls) during the 2022 Asia Cup, that doubt was gone. From my perspective, that knock not just ended a drought, it was beggining of something extraordinary. On 18th January against New Zealand, Kohli made history in four major statistical categories. Most International Centuries Against New Zealand During the last match, Kohli added an astonishing century to his already dominant record against New Zealand, taking his tally to 10 international centuries against the Kiwis. That pushed him past Ricky Ponting and Virender Sehwag, who were previously tied with six each. ODI Centuries at 35 Different Venues Worldwide During the series, Kohli became the first batter in cricket history to score ODI centuries at 35 different venues. This record shows about this 37-year-old right-handed batsman’s ability to adapt. Conditions change from ground to ground, but Kohli’s ability to read pitches early and adjust his tempo has made him ODI’s Number 1 Batsman once again. Fastest to 28,000 International Runs Kohli crossed the 28,000 international runs mark during the first match against the Black Caps in Vadodara on January 11, 2026, and joined an elite group featuring Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakkara. In doing so, he also surpassed Sachin Tendulkar. Highest Run-Scorer at No. 3 in ODI History Over the course of the series, Kohli went past Ricky Ponting to become the highest run-scorer batting at No. 3 in ODI cricket. Let’s not forget that it’s a position that demands both stability and aggression. For me, Batting at No. 3 is responsibility-heavy, and Kohli has owned that role. With yet another series filled with milestones and record-breaking performances, one question is now echoing among fans and critics alike: Can Virat Kohli reach the century of international centuries and break Sachin Tendulkar’s iconic feat? If you want my honest, experience-driven take on that and why timing may matter more than the number itself, you can check out our guide. - [Best Mac Games on Steam (2026) - Tested on M3, M4, and M5](https://levelandleague.com/the-best-mac-games-on-steam/): Looking for the best Mac games you can buy on Steam right now? Yes, I tested every single one of these releases, and as long as your Mac has a silicon chip inside, I’ve got games you don’t want to miss out on. Let’s get started!  Key Highlights: How I Picked the Best macOS Games on Steam  Every game on this list runs natively on macOS, no emulators, no Boot Camp. Tested across M1 to M5 MacBooks for real-world performance. Includes both 3D AAA games and 2D indie hits that shine on Apple Silicon chips. All titles are available directly through Steam with full controller and cloud save support. Balanced mix of story, gameplay depth, and replay value, not just pretty graphics. The Best 3D Steam Games on Macs (M1, M2, and M3 Silicon Chips) Steam games on Mac have finally reached a point where big 3D titles don’t feel watered down. With Apple Silicon powering everything, you can now run games that used to demand top-tier PCs. Here they are!  3d MacBook Games Highlight Title Publisher Release Date Death Stranding Director’s Cut Kojima Productions Jan 2024 Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition CD Projekt Red Dec 2020 Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Capcom Jan 2017 The Witcher & The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings CD Projekt Red May 2011 Civilization VI Firaxis Games Oct 2016 Firewatch Campo Santo Feb 2016 Death Stranding Director’s Cut  Death Stranding Director’s Cut is a slow burner through and through. You’ll find yourself in a hauntingly beautiful wasteland with hundreds of questions, and I can assure you even after 100 hours, half of those questions will remain unanswered. You should try it if you enjoy relatively casual games with combat here and there. Every step feels grounded, like hiking across slippery rocks after rain. That physical sense of movement and controlling your weight across rocky terrain is the core gameplay loop.  It runs beautifully on modern Macs, and I’d go so far as to say the optimisation is real sorcery here. On my M2 Max and M3 Pro systems, 1440p stayed above 60FPS and 4K hovered around 40FPS with max settings. The M2 Max gets louder, but both stay smooth even in low power mode. It’s one of the best Steam games for Apple Silicon chips right now and shows what Mac gaming can really do when developers put in the effort. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition Cyberpunk 2077 on Mac feels like a statement game, proof that Apple hardware can handle big open worlds and slice into Steam games that run natively on Mac. We enter Night City, neon lights bounce off wet pavement, and corpos run shady operations all around. You might not be a big part of the city yet, but you’ve got what this city needs.  Whether you’re chasing gigs, romancing characters, or customizing your cybernetic upgrades, you’ll never run out of things to do. The world feels alive, side quests often lead to unique weapons or cars, and finishing the prologue itself makes you one with Keanu Reeves, literally! It’s one of the best games to play on Mac if you want a full-scale RPG with zero compromises. Performance-wise, you don’t need the fastest MacBook to enjoy it. I got around 40FPS at 1920×1200 on an M2 Pro, and the game still looked incredible. Heat can build up during long sessions, but frame pacing stayed consistent, and I didn’t have any major lag or freeze frames.  If you’ve been waiting for an RPG that actually runs on Mac and can be counted as one of the best Steam Mac games, this is it. Let’s be real, if it can be played on the Switch 2, you bet it will run smoothly on Macs.  Resident Evil 7: Biohazard  Resident Evil 7 pulls you straight into its decaying Louisiana mansion in search of a wife. It’s more personal than previous games, leaning into first-person horror that feels both claustrophobic and grotesque at times.  You should play it because it blends FPS shooting, puzzle-solving, exploration, and horror better than most modern games. Every creak in the floorboards makes you tense up, and figuring out the mansion layout brings back that classic Resident Evil feeling. It’s scary in the best way possible. On Macs running M3 or higher, it runs smoothly even on medium settings. You’ll notice minor pop-ins and inconsistent lighting in some outdoor scenes, but it’s otherwise stable. It lacks advanced graphics options seen in Resident Evil Village, yet it’s still one of the best Mac games for horror fans.  Important I played on an M3 Mac and the game ran at a stable 60 FPS with resolution set to 1920×1080. The textures do feel a bit muddy, but thanks to the low light conditions, the game was definitely no eyesore. It is playable, but you might want to dish out extra for the Resident Evil AppStore version and skip the Steam one. The Witcher & The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings The Witcher series finally runs natively on Mac, and both games still hold up beautifully. These two adventures lay the foundation for everything that made The Witcher 3 so memorable, rich characters, layered choices, and dark storytelling that actually respects your intelligence. You should try them to understand how Geralt’s world evolved. The Witcher 2, in particular, fills in key story gaps that make the later games hit even harder. It’s a more focused RPG, with great combat and writing that captures what makes this world so compelling. Performance depends on your setup. The Witcher games struggle a bit on M2 chips but play well on M3 and M3 Pro models with frame rates above 40FPS. There are still minor glitches and texture pop-ins, yet for older RPGs, they look and play better than you’d expect. The wait might be overWhile we don’t have any official statements from CDPR about new Mac ports, I tried playing it with Whisky for Mac and saw 50+ FPS consistently, even on a beat-up old M2 Max. It earns its - [Virat Kohli’s Birthday Month Holds a Legacy in Indian Cricket Linked to Both Sachin Tendulkar and Sunil Gavaskar!](https://levelandleague.com/virat-kohlis-birthday-month-holds-a-legacy-in-indian-cricket-linked-to-both-sachin-tendulkar-and-sunil-gavaskar/): November isn’t just Virat Kohli’s birthday month, it’s a historic chapter in Indian cricket.

It runs only on New 3DS models, ditching the 3D effect entirely just to squeeze out enough power to work.  It has its charm, a stripped-back, almost retro way to play the blocky classic that feels like stepping into the early YouTube Let’s Play days. Here’s what I learnt after sinking an entire weekend into this handheld port.  What Makes the 3DS Version Different? This edition is essentially a fork of Pocket Edition, but heavily modified for the 3DS. It just never caught up to the main versions, its last update was the Discovery Update in 2019. That means no Aquatic, no Village & Pillage, no Nether update.  Just the barebones foundation of Minecraft with some limitations on world size, render distance, and features. The sprites feel like they have been churned through a blender and then boiled in a kettle.  Despite the cuts, it still delivers most of the core loop. You mine, you craft, you can even raid Woodland Mansions and face off against the Ender Dragon. The catch is that everything feels a little clunky. Load times are painfully long, framerate dips are common, and sometimes blocks don’t render in The End. How Does It Play in 2025? Controls are surprisingly solid once you adjust, with the extra buttons on the New 3DS making it manageable. But the missing online play is a dealbreaker for many, you’re limited to local multiplayer only. If your friends don’t own a 3DS as well as a copy of the game, you’re stuck playing solo. That said, if you were big on multiplayer, you’d find the mobile ports for iOS and Android to be a hop, skip, and a leap above. If you are going into this vintage nugget of a game, you must steel your mind and remember the limitations of the 3DS as a console.  Remember how difficult sitting through the first hour of cutscenes was for Pokémon Sun and Moon?  Performance hasn’t aged well either. My mid-range 2019 phone runs Minecraft smoother than this edition ever did. And since the 3DS eShop closed in 2023, you can’t buy it digitally anymore. Physical copies still work, but they’re more of a collector’s item now than a go-to way to play. Mods and Community Fixes For those determined to keep this version alive, a few mods can be a good way to make it more playable. While there isn’t much in terms of community support, here’s what helped me make the game much more fun.  Mods Keep It Alive Thanks to the small but passionate modding scene, Nintendo 3DS’ Minecraft isn’t as dead as it seems. The Modernization MegaPack adds textures, a cleaner GUI, modern fonts, and UI upgrades, even some Bedrock-style visuals.  Beyond that, mods on the Minecraft 3DS Community Unistore include shaders, maps, better menus, and even new mechanics created by a host of creators. Installing is easy with universal tools like Universal-Updater.  Why It Feels Like a Reset Button Firing up Minecraft on the 3DS is like going back to an older era of the franchise, before constant patches and expansions.  It strips Minecraft back to its basics, and in doing so, reminds you of why those early Let’s Plays in 2011 were so addictive. It’s clunky, outdated, and limited, but that’s also its charm. Why Minecraft on the Nintendo 3DS Is Not Worth It Minecraft New Nintendo 3DS Edition isn’t the best way to experience Minecraft today. Its framerate, old update, and hardware limits make it a clunky ride.  If you want a slow, retro feeling of discovery, or a project to revamp with mods, it’s not half bad. That said, the game is a pain to run, and if it’s handheld Minecraft you need, the Switch and your mobile phone can deliver a much better experience.  Minecraft for Nintendo 3DS FAQs Q. When did Minecraft 3DS come out? A. Minecraft: New Nintendo 3DS Edition was released on September 13, 2017, in North America and Japan. It launched in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand on September 20, 2018, and got its final update in January 2019. Q. How to get Minecraft on Nintendo 3DS in 2025? A. You can’t buy it from the eShop anymore since it shut down in March 2023. Your only option is finding a physical copy, which still works on New 3DS and New 2DS systems. Q. How to play Minecraft on Nintendo 3DS? A. Insert the cartridge (or redownload if you purchased it digitally before the eShop closed) and launch. Controls are mapped to the New 3DS inputs. Expect slower load times and limited render distance compared to modern Minecraft versions. Q. Do they make Minecraft for Nintendo 3DS? A. No. Development stopped years ago, and the game has been discontinued. Only used physical copies or redownloads for previous owners exist today. Q. Can you get Minecraft on Nintendo 3DS? A. You can only play it on New 3DS or New 2DS models. It won’t run on the original 3DS hardware because it needs the extra processing power. - [Why Was Mario Kart 7 so Forgettable?](https://levelandleague.com/category-gaming-why-was-mario-kart-7-so-forgettable/): When Mario Kart 7 first launched on the Nintendo 3DS, it promised fresh ideas like gliding, underwater racing, and kart customization.
