3. My Friend Pedro
In this game, you will find a mix of precision-shot action of Hotline Miami, the acrobatics of Trials, and the slow-motion bullet time effect from the Max Payne series. It is also packed with one sentient banana! My friend Pedro is split across several creative and perplexing levels, where your goal is simple – kill everyone and reach the exit. Doing this is not easy though, of course, especially when turrets are locking onto your position to shower a torrential downpour of bullets.
It is a perfect game to play in the Switch’s handheld mode also as a single level takes only a few minutes to complete. A dreamlike story gradually unravels as you progress, and special vehicular sections offer a decent burst of all-out action that differs from the methodical play of the rest of the game.

8. Splatoon 2
This is a multiplayer game and an excellent addition to Splatoon 2. It can be played by groups of four players to collect golden eggs while fending off waves of evil Salmonids, and it’s as ridiculous as it sounds. Every player should have their systems, as the game doesn’t support split-screen multiplayer.

9. Ape Out
This game is a top-down kill fest featuring an ape that makes humans explode into a junk of blood-soaked limbs. This is the latest game from Devolver Digital and is simplistic but delightful. In each of the game’s four chapters, you will have to navigate an ape from captivity to freedom. The way to freedom is paved with gun-wielding guards that will shoot rather than ask questions. You can convert every guard into mush by shoving them, or you can use them as body shields before tossing them aside.
With an addictive rhythm and jazzy soundtrack, it goes well with what is happening on screen. Snare drums beat continuously, speeding up when in danger, and cymbals crash to mark the deaths of enemies. Ape Out is a challenging game and randomization keeps each successive retry as intense as the last.
