QubicGames had, and is still having, a massive sale. If you owned one of their games you could buy almost any of their other games for. 50 cents US a piece. So I running out of Switch stuff to play jumped on that deal and decided to review every game I bought so that the next time the deal is going on you can grab the best ones. So without further a dudes here are my findings.
Bit.Trip Beat
Tried this with the motion controls and hated it. Switched them off and liked it a ton more. It's a long kind of game with great music. Tons of stuff to do and well balanced.

Bit.Trip Core
No thank you. Not for me. My brain can't handle it but it seems like a lot of people would like this. You are controlling rays of light that you turn on to intercept small dots but I can't get it going for very long at all.

Bit.Trip Fate
A unique track based shoot em up with lots of dodging. Such a good concept that should be revisited.
10 out of 10
Bit.Trip Flux
It's a reverse Bit.Trip Beat. Literally, just move up and down on the right side if the screen and intercept the blips that come from the left.
9 out of 10
Bit.Trip Runner
Excellent level based endless runner that is extremely difficult but I know if I knuckled down I could eventually get through a lot of it.
10 out of 10
Bit.Trip Void
So fun, I could see playing this avoid em up and gather em up. I don't know what to call it but I like it. Give this a try.

Chex Quest HD
A great paced FPS that is a remake of the first game in the series only, but what is here is very fun and controls well. The single player is 5 levels long and each one has very well hidden secrets to find. I was not able to play the multiplayer.
Single player rating 10 out of 10
Coffee Crisis
Where do I start, I think this might be better on a TV just can't wrap my head around it in handheld mode. All I keep doing is getting pummeled by the computer. Feels very Weaponlord, as in it seems like it was built for people that play brawlers on the top difficulty. Also, a little stilted with the movement.
Going to come back to this a bunch to see the great art more and see where it goes story wise.

Doorkickers
I did not like this. It feels like a slow puzzle version of Hot Line Miami with controls that just don't work for me and coupled with the timer that is way too restrictive to how I want to play this.

Dungeon Top
Not for me. Roguelike deck builder for people that like deck builders. And Roguelike. If that's you, you should give it a go.

Escape Doodland
Very hard endless runner style game with set goals and many unlockables that I am absolutely terrible at. Great art and fairly smooth game play that makes for an approachable game that the difficulty spikes through the ground. I most likely won't be playing anymore of it but I could see a lot of people really enjoying this if they gave it a chance.

Good Night Knight
Okay, I like this one. It's giving Sega Genesis with graphics and the odd line of sight fog of war vision system. Top down Zelda mixed with Dark Souls mechanics. Play this.

Mini Trains
It's a shallow puzzle game with a very confusing gui. The game is played by placing track to link the start and end stations and to collect stars. That's pretty much it. Purchase if you like puzzle games but skip if you just like trains.

Om Nom Run
A party game endless runner with a really great single player mode. The single player has a bunch of levels to play and I could see doing all of it.
8 put of 10
Pocket Mini Golf (paid full price)
A very limited mini golf Simulator. You have three modes casual, challenge, and multiplayer

Pocket Mini Golf 2
It's more mini golf but done extremely well. Where were you hiding. Excellent single player with tons of trophies to unlock.
10 out of 10
Pocket Pool
Way better than Pocket Mini Golf but not as good as it's sequel but maybe it doesn't need to be. The challenge mode is a very cozy and measured experience that I could see coming back to again and again.

Pudding Monsters
Wow this is a great puzzle game. Just figure out how to combine the monsters so they end up covering the stars.
10 out of 10
Puzzle Book
A bog standard jigsaw puzzle game with great art and dlc for even more great art. The actual jigsaw design and mechanics are what pull this down to average. If you like jigsaw games you will like this if not skip it. It will not convert non believers.
4 out of 10
Rimelands
It's a tactical rpg with very dated style. Okay, this pushed me away but it eventually showed it's janky colors and I really enjoyed playing this.
9 out of 10
Robonauts
Remember Super Mario Galaxy, you want to do that but 2d and with guns. I don't like the chaos of the amount of spawning enemies so this is not for me. But you may like this one.
9 out of 10
Run Sausage Run
It's a fun party game with a decent single player experience. That I enjoy the single player multitudes more should say something about the multiplayer. Mainly the game needs tons of players or 1 player nothing in between.
7 out of 10
Sheep Patrol
It's a sheep herding puzzle game. No menu when you start and obviously made for mobile which to me means a lack of control.
3 out of 10
Space Pioneer
Kind of a real time strategy slash action rpg with a lot of rpg then you think. It's pretty good fun. Oh and it has kind of a cool stamina system.
9 out of 10
Timothy and the Mysterious Forest
I hated this stealth game about trying to save your grandfather. Even though it has great Game Boy style graphics their I two major flaws the movement was the thing that caused me the most trouble and after I got more used to that I got into a cycle of dying over and over because having save points instead of just letting me save where ever I wanted was causing me tons of problems.

I hope this helps you pick some fun games for not much money.
