What stands out about UFO 50, Mossmouth's delightful collection of retro-styled games, is not that so many of them are absolute bangers – although they are – rather, it's the fact that it genuinely all comes together as a single experience. In this game, you are a visitor in some wonderful exhibition, and UFO 50 is your 8-bit time machine. It's magnificent, and a perfect fit for Switch.
