Twenty-first GOTW finished for 2022. I don't have any nostalgia for Digimon, so this one wasn't a favorite. It's essentially a Super Smash Bros.-like platform fighting game, with a selection of Digimon (some locked at the beginning behind progress requirements) that you can fight with. Beat up on your opponent enough throughout the match, and your meter will eventually be high enough to allow you to digivolve for a short period. There are also power ups throughout the levels you can collect, but considering you can just spam the same basic attacks to victory every level, they felt completely unnecessary. Combat also felt a little janky. Extremely short runtime from start to finish, allowing for some replayability with the multiple characters, but didn't capture my attention enough to warrant another playthrough.
