Everspace is a perfect fit for switch, very pick up and play.

Anyway I've finished the direct, not much of interest in there for myself really, Night Call looks good, as does Everspace.


i believe a friend of mine recommended it to me, better keep an eye out

The ones that really stood out for me were the taxi game, which reminded me of Hotel Dusk (good work Taf), and Prison Architect. Does Prison Architect have the wit of Theme Hospital? I'm not sure it would be for me if it was super serious.

Morphies Law looked really innovative too, and could be a lot of fun with friends, but I don't think it'll be something I pick up.

I played a bit of Prison Architect on PS4 and personally found it a little too finicky for console play. Seemed to me that it needed mouse and keyboard, not sure if the Switch version would incorporate some touchscreen in handheld mode.

Prison Architect did have a little bit of the vibe of Theme Hospital in my opinion (on that note I'd love Theme Hospital to get a release on the consoles as it was a throughly addictive game), it looks ok but nothing I'd be interested in buying.

That's great, Taf, you must be really proud.


Thanks! Yeah, it's all a bit surreal!

Although it wasn’t mentioned, Nintendo have said it will be playable at Gamescom, so perhaps there will be some more information coming out.

Slay the Spire looks good. I'm a fan of deckbuilder card games, and it looks just like an idea I had for a game!
