Review: Junkser (Nintendo Switch)
Junkster is a 3D puzzle game for the Nintendo Switch that challenges players to guide a robot named UM-13 home by constructing paths and overcoming obstacles using a robo-wrench. While the game features a charming retro-futuristic comic book aesthetic and engaging puzzles, it is slightly hampered by clunky controls and missed opportunities for narrative development.
