Game Freak’s cult classic 3DS game is coming to Nintendo Switch
Pokémon developer Game Freak has released the remaster of its cult favourite 3DS game, Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On!, for Nintendo Switch.
Available today as a digital download, the Nintendo Switch version features online play against other players. Ride On! was first released for Apple Arcade last year.
The 3DS original was pulled from sale last March, following the closure of the platform’s digital store, so the Switch version ensures that new players can still access the game.
The cult favourite horse racing game has players clearing Solitaire decks, with their performance affecting how well their horse performs. After this, the player chooses the horse’s position on the racetrack to avoid hitting other horses.
The player continues switching between playing more games of Solitaire and positioning their horse until the race is over. The better a combo the player can build while clearing cards, the better their ‘unity’ with the horse.
VGC wrote in our Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On! review: “Ride On is a great way for fans of the 3DS version to upgrade to a more modern revamp, and for those who missed out to try out a brilliantly unique concept for the first time.”
