Welcome, we’re into the new month already which can only mean one thing at LadiesGamers. It’s time to look at the upcoming new release games on our favourite handheld, the Nintendo Switch for March 2022.
Mind you, not all games to be released are on the list here. Alternatively, you will see games that the other gaming sites don’t mention. We are taking notice of these games, and if given half a chance, you can expect reviews for many of them! It should be noted that unless we have some personal experience with the game mentioned, there’s a link to the descriptions on the Nintendo website.
FAR: Changing Tides – March 1st
An atmospheric vehicle adventure that follows the emotional journey of a boy and his ship as he embarks on a voyage to find a new home. Sail stormy waters, dive into unknown depths, and explore forgotten ruins in a beautifully realised, flooded world.
Expanding on the desolate setting seen in FAR: Lone Sails, Changing Tides swaps sun-scorched, dusty planes for stormy skies and high seas. With new environments, puzzles and ship mechanics, the world of FAR: Changing Tides brings an exciting experience to fans of this beloved series and new players alike with a bigger, deeper challenge. You can find our review for FAR: Changing Tides here.
Primordia – March 2nd
Life has ceased. Man is but a myth. Now, even the machines have begun to fail. Explore a wasteland of rust and ruin, full of malfunctioning robots, mysterious devices, and ancient secrets. At its heart lies Metropol, the world’s last city, where an implacable, power-hungry foe awaits.
The game draws inspiration from traditional point-and-click adventures, adding an integrated hint system, multi-solution puzzles, and automatic note-taking and mapping, making it a favourite of players of all experience levels. For completionists, alternate endings, a developer commentary mode, and hidden secrets await a second playthrough. You can read Elena’s review of Primordia here.

Ancient Islands – March 10th
Ancient Islands covers a lot of unique strategies and combinations to defend the village. Build not only the defence towers but also other facilities inside your settlement. Place woodcutter’s huts near the forest to gather wood, then build a marketplace to exchange it for stone.
Develop your magic schools to get more mana and unlock more powerful spells. Develop your abilities in a way you like, with tons of available combinations; you can specialize in getting gold and archery, woodcutting, and melee fighters or go full resource gathering.

The Last Cube – March 10th
Venture into the desolate cube world where you’ll discover 3D puzzles in diverse, colourful environments. As the Last Cube, you must prove your worth and save your dying home. Solve puzzles the cube way: stamp stickers to your sides and use their special powers. New mechanics and abilities are frequently introduced, always surprising you with what your little cube is capable of.
The cube planet is an expansive world featuring a wide array of brutalist architecture that ranges from foggy nightmarish abysses to oppressive lava lit factories, to uplifting natural landscapes full of golden rays of sunshine glistening against mountains. There’s a new surprise around every corner. Our review of The Last Cube can be read here.
Time Loader – March 10th
Time Loader is a story-driven, physics-based puzzle platformer with a twist. At the helm of a small robot, you’ll travel back to the 90s to prevent a tragic accident. Explore the house of your creator, solve brain-teasing puzzles, acquire unique and powerful upgrades, and see common household items from an entirely new perspective!
But remember: meddling with time has serious consequences. Time Loader features music, references, and items straight out of the ‘90s. Relive your childhood or, if you’re too young for it, just gawk in awe at how primitive humanity used to be back then. Read James’ review of Time Loader here.
Move or Die: Unleashed – March 10th
As its name suggests, Move or Die: Unleashed forces players to take action. In fact, not moving literally makes your character explode. With just 20 seconds per round, Move or Die: Unleashed is a quick game to pick up, but a hard one to put down.
Slap your friends’ controllers out of their hands while playing on the same couch, challenge players from all around the world in online matches or pretend to practise offline with AI bots. Select what you want to play from an ever-expanding roster of mini-games, each with its own outrageous mechanics and level design crafted to promote hours of good old friendship-ruining fun. Read James’ review here.
Two Hundred Ways – March 11th
Two Hundred Ways, the sequel of the successful brain teaser One Hundred Ways, gives puzzle fans twice as many mental challenges to overcome. The mission of each of its 200 levels sounds easy: guide one or more balls to the exit.
But levels with up to three different layers and numerous ball traps don’t make this task a walk in the park. Luckily, players can use dozens of tools to help them reach their goal, but using more tools means that their level score will go down. You can check out my review of Two Hundred Ways here.
The Cruel King and the Great Hero – March 11th
In The Cruel King and the Great Hero, you join an intrepid girl on her many adventures as she strives to become a hero with the help of her mighty dragon protector.
Along the way, meet new friends, collect items, and help folks from all walks of life! Discover a heartwarming tale of kindness, companionship, and family in a gorgeous hand-drawn world. Read the review for The Cruel King and the Great Hero here.
Aery – Calm Mind 2 – March 24th
Aery – Calm Mind 2 is an interactive game experience that is designed to relax your mind and soul. You jump into the role of a little bird, explore beautiful landscapes and collect magical crystals that mark certain landscapes.
Because there are no enemies or any other danger in this game you will be able to lean back and enjoy the scenery and the sensation of flying. It is a great game for relaxing and calming down after an exhausting day full of hassle.
