Survival Kids, as the name suggests, is a survival video game developed by Konami. It was first released in 1999. It pops players into the shoes of either a boy named Ken or a girl named Mary, who has become stranded on a deserted island.

The addition of Survival Kids is ahead of a new game in the series arriving on Switch 2 for launch.

Gradius the Interstellar Assault is another Konami number, but this one is set in space with horizontal scrolling gameplay.

Kirby’s Star Stacker is a Kirby-spin off game, which is more puzzle focused, with a block falling mechanic akin to Tetris.

Last up, we have The Sword of Hope, which has a fantasy-bent. Players take on the role of Prince Theo whose father, King Hennessy, has been corrupted by an evil dragon.
