About:
Little Dragons Cafe is an upcoming game from Rising Star Games, who are infamous for their Harvest Moon series.
The story begins with a twin brother and sister running a small café with their mother. All was peaceful and routine until one morning the twins discovered that their mother fell into a deep sleep and wouldn’t wake up. Suddenly, an old wizard appears and tells the twins that their mother is gravely ill and that they must raise a dragon in order to save her.
Working together with their three quirky staff members (waiter, waitress, and chef), the two siblings must raise a dragon and manage the family business while at the same time discover what is causing their mother’s illness and find a cure.
Little Dragons Café is the latest tour de’ force from Yasuhiro Wada, founder of the Harvest Moon series.

[dropcap]I[/dropcap]n 2017, fans of the fast-paced game RUNBOW were delighted to hear that the popular party game was to be released on Nintendo Switch. Initially, the game was set to be released on the 24th April 2018. Unfortunately, the game’s publisher (Headup Games) and developer (13AM Games), have pushed the release of the game back a few weeks. In a joint statement, they stated that this is to “further optimise the game’s performance”. A solid release date has not been revealed.
It is uncertain whether this delay may also push back the release of the retail version (RUNBOW Deluxe Edition), which had a release date of June 14th.
About Runbow
For those who haven’t’ heard of RUNBOW, it is a platform racing game, originally made for the WiiU back in 2015. Due to its success, the game was later ported to PC, New Nintendo 3DS, and Xbox, and will soon be available on Nintendo Switch and PS4 as well.
The RUNBOW world changes with each swipe of the background, meaning players are kept on their toes as colourful obstacles and platforms disappear.
The game can be played in single-player mode, or by up to 9 players (either locally or online) in the frantic multiplayer mode.
With a score of 82/100 on Metacritic, and rated 9/10 by Nintendo Life, Runbow has obtained mostly positive reviews since its release.
Runbow Features
RUNBOW’s Steam page describes the ability to:
- Save Poster District from the evil Satura in Adventure, and choose your own path through a massive map of over 140 single player levels.
- Take on The Bowhemoth, a single, ultra-difficult challenge in the belly of a colossal beast. On your own or with friends, its sure to test the skills of even the toughest platforming veterans.
- Go head to head with your friends, locally or online, in Run, Arena, or King of the Hill, for a colourful, crazy competition. Host a Private Game for you or your friends, or hop into an Open Party and take on the world!
- Challenge yourself with 68 Steam Achievements! Be the first on your friends list to unlock them all!
The page also talks of content such as:
- Tons of unlockable costumes and Indie Guest Characters, including Shovel Knight, CommanderVideo, Shantae, Lilac, and many more.
- Hundreds of pieces of unlockable Gallery content, from concept art to characters, as well as a few hidden gems.
Fans may be disappointed to hear of the game’s delay, but it’s important to remember that this is to ensure that the game is polished and of a high standard.
It’ll be worth the wait! ????
