    The Touryst

    Doesn't seem to be a first play for this despite being out over a week, so apologies if Ive missed it.

    Getting into The Touryst is the most I've played my Switch in months. I'm not a big fan of indie games and find myself going off current gaming more and more. However this is a breath of fresh air. It's kind of an adventure-puzzler with a vibe of number of other titles such as Fez and (oddly) Monkey Island, but all the comparables don't really do it justice. It looks lovely, controls beautifully and is highly recommended. Easily as good anything first-party the Switch has chucked out, and for £17-odd it's a steal.

    Saw a video of this a few days back, looks amazing, think it's Switch-only though (?), which is rather saddening.

      This looks lovely and reviewed really well but I just had a hard time figuring out what the game actually was. Sounds fun.

        Think it could be a Switch exclusive at the mo JF.

        I'm not sure what it actually is either, it's an odd combo of things that just works.

          The DF vid on this looked class. If I didn't have a couple of games on the go I'd have jumped in by now. I too found myself wondering what kind of game it was though.

            Is it download only? Can't find it online.

                I'll bite as soon as it gets a physical release.

                  Me too. Looks lovely, but I'm almost totally insistent on the physical (I sound like a demanding husband )

                      Aye, seems to be mate. Conversely I wish I'd gone digital with all my Switch purchases, fed up of swapping carts over. Think I'm spoilt with retro flashcarts.

                        Haha. Life gets in the way.

                        I will wait for physical release if ever too then.

                          The DF video looked good, will pick it up when I get through my switch backlog

                              My daughter and I finished this (about 90% done) yesterday. What a magical, intelligent, infuriating, rewarding and relaxing game.

                              Lazy Jones meets Fez mixed with Minecraft and Zelda with serious 90’s gamer/demo community vibes.

                              One of my fave games of 2019, and first time we used the Switch in TV mode!
