Fall Guys (PS4)

Fall Guys is a Battle Royale like no other.  It touts itself as a gameshow, but ultimately it's a platformer/puzzle game where you're trying to outwit, outjump, outrun your opponents to be the last "man" standing.  The premise is amazing, the controls are not.  The controls are bad enough that they detract from the experience, but not poor enough to dismiss this game.  It's a family favourite and definitely worth a try. Recommend.

Crossy Road Castle (iOS)

Crossy Road Castle could be considered a "sequel" to Crossy Road, but it's so different, I can't really consider it that.  It uses the characters and art style, but this is a pure old school platformer through and through.  It has incredibly cute graphics and charm that are usually only seen in Nintendo titles.  The controls though, they're so spot on, it's beyond just about any other phone platformer I've ever played.  As far as I know it's only on Apple Arcade, a monthly subscription service, but it's worth the price of a month for this game alone.  Highly recommend.
