Release Date: August 10, 2017
A multiplayer arcade game developed for Nintendo Switch. The game rules are simple - the characters run around a board divided into smaller s. By jumping you rotate the tiles near your avatar, changing their color to match it. If someone else steps onto your tile, they drop out of the game. When rotating the tiles you can earn various power-ups which e.g. increase your speed or the number of the rotated tiles.
Project Mekuru is an arcade game released on Switch designed for multiplayer games. The title is only available in digital distribution.
Gameplay in Project Mekuru is based on quite simple rules. There are four players on a small board. The goal of each of them is to eliminate competitors - they do that by rotating the s on the floor. We do this by jumping - this causes the tiles near the hero to rotate and change their color to the one assigned to that player. If another person steps on our , they get eliminated from the game. Some tiles can give us various power-ups, e.g. increased movement speed. However, some of the tiles are fixed and cannot be rotated. Skillful players can use this to their advantage.
Project Mekuru on the Switch has a four-player multiplayer. The game can be played both over the Internet and locally on a single console.
The graphics aren't spectacular. We see only a white map and colorful characters dressed in futuristic suits. The game doesn't any spectacular effects, and there is usually nothing interesting in the background. Nevertheless, Project Mekuru looks decent in motion and the graphics don't interfere with good fun.

Game Ratings for Flip Wars Video Game.
Reno Gazette-Journal: 5 / 10 by Jason Hidalgo
A solid base mechanic with potential and affordable price make Flip Wars an intriguing proposition for party game lovers. Its lack of content, however, reduce the mileage you might otherwise get from the game, especially in solo play. If you like to see a different take on Bomberman-style games and can round up folks to play with you, however, this budget title can still be worth flipping into.
Attack of the Fanboy: 2.5 / 5 by Kyle Hanson
Flip Wars isn't a bad game, it's a painfully mediocre one with an appalling lack of overall content. The Switch might be the perfect place for a small, simple multiplayer game, but Flip Wars doesn't offer anything new or different enough to justify itself.
Cubed3: 5 / 10 by Ofisil
There are some titles that have high replay value despite their simplicity, but Flip Wars is not one of them, as this is nothing but a simple mini-game turned full game. In other words, while this is definitely cheaper, better save that pizza money for Splatoon 2… or pizza.
