Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Review

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Review By: Jonah Casel ‘27 The game I’ve been waiting for is finally out, and it’s great! Pokémon fans are happy,  I’m happy, and my life is complete. This game is great, an 8/10! But compared to Pokémon Sword and Shield, it’s just ok. (Pokémon Sword is my favorite game of all time, the model of a 10/10 game) Some parts of the game that I liked were the ability to have Pokémon follow you outside of battle, and the Grand Underground, but my favorite feature HAS to be the fact that I only have to see every Pokémon to complete the Pokédex instead of catching all of them! I got the game a week ago, and I’ve already completed it. The national dex is back, and I like the postgame. However, this game is really hard. Almost every Pokémon in the elite four…

Mario Party Superstars Review

Mario Party Superstars Review By Jonah Casel ‘27 I’ve had Mario Party Superstars for about a week now. It’s a fun game! I definitely recommend it. 8/10, not as good as Super Mario Party. I have a special place in my heart for Super Mario Party.  Anyway, Mario Party Superstars is like Mario Party Top 100, but actually good! They picked really good minigames to bring back some of my favorites, Booksquirm, Pushy Penguins, and THE ELITE FACE LIFT! (In this minigame you get to stretch Bowser’s face. What could be better?) They also added sports minigames and I will never stop playing the hockey minigames. (There are two of them!) The boards are pretty cool too. So far, I’ve only played on Yoshi’s tropical island, but that one’s pretty good. The only thing I don’t like about it is Bowser. I wish that instead of making you buy something…
