  Console: Switch Developer: Game Freak Release Date:  November 18, 2022 (DLC released  September 13, 2023,  December 14, 2023 and January 11, 2024) Pokémon Violet  (and its sister game, Pokémon Scarlet ) is an open world, turn-based RPG focused around capturing and training creatures, and the beginning of the 9th Generation of Pokémon games. While its predecessors, Pokémon Shield  and Pokémon Sword  were a hybrid of open world and more traditional Pokémon gameplay, Pokémon Violet  and Pokémon Scarlet  are the first true open world games in the series.

Games I Played In 2024 - BoxBoxBoy! (and, by extension, BoxBoy!)

  Console: 3DS (eShop Exclusive) Developer: HAL Laboratory Release Date: June 30th 2016 BoxBoxBoy! is the sequel to BoxBoy! which released a year earlier, though I'd argue it feels more like a massive level pack than a sequel. As a result, I'll be talking about both games, since they're so similar.
