SwitchArcade Round-Up: ‘Fragrant Story & Papaya’s Path’, Plus Today’s Other Releases and Sales

Mar 04,2025 Author: Noah

Hello gaming enthusiasts, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for August 26th, 2024! Today's update is a bit lighter than usual. Due to other commitments, reviews are postponed until tomorrow, but we'll cover new releases and sales. Let's dive in!

New Game Releases

Fragrant Story and Papaya's Path ($7.99)

Fragrant Story, a tactical RPG initially released incompletely for the 3DS, has received its full update. Early reports of its short playtime are inaccurate; this version offers a substantial ten-hour-plus adventure. At $8, it's a solid choice for fans of the genre.

Quack Jump ($3.99)

A straightforward platformer with 40 levels and evolving mechanics. A fun, affordable option at four dollars.

Underground Station ($7.90)

An idle game where you work in a dungeon to pay off debts. Visually unassuming, but a welcome change of pace.

Sales Spotlight

(North American eShop, US Prices)

Let's explore the latest sales. Limited Run Games titles are discounted, along with several from TROOOZE and Team 17. Noteworthy is the ending sale on the Front Mission remakes, a less frequent discount opportunity.
