Hello, dear readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade roundup for July 30, 2024. Just look at a new game and we’ll do it. After that, we still have some sales to discuss. This is a slightly shorter post since I spent most of the day in the hospital, but we’ll make up for that later in the week. Now, let’s see what we’ve got!
Select new version
Garden Path ($19.99)
A game that describes itself as a slice-of-life gardening sim that aims to be similar to ANIMAL CROSSING. Just like that game, things will keep happening when you’re not playing, so feel free to do what you need to do and come back another day. There are lots of interesting characters to meet and activities outside of gardening to get involved in. Unfortunately, this Switch version is currently buggy. You may need to wait for a patch or two.
sales volume
(North American e-store, US prices)
As usual when a big sale starts, we’ll write a separate article on what we think are the most recommendable picks from the Play Together sale. I’ll list a few others here, but I recommend checking your wish list and favorite publisher pages to see if there’s a discount on something you specifically want. I cannot make a comprehensive list as it contains over a thousand titles. Happy hunting!

That’s all for today, friends. We’ll be back tomorrow with more new games, more sales, maybe a review or two, and maybe even some news. The good news today is that I didn’t need to be hospitalized just now. The bad news is that I had to postpone my birthday pizza and cake because I needed a few days to go on a liquid diet. Okay, I can live with that. Hope you all had a great Tuesday, and as always, thank you for reading!
