You have a gift to give to a Nintendo Switch owner. Here are five games to play with others, for adventurers, creative people or puzzle lovers.
Despite its appearance as a simple hybrid console for families and young players, the Nintendo Switch is much more versatile than you might think. If it offers multiple games for playing with others, the Switch also has a much larger catalog with something to satisfy all profiles. Here is our selection of five unmissable gifts depending on the player to be spoiled.
Super Mario Party Jamboree
The Switch is often used for playing with others. If Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the essential reference, the range Super Mario Party brings joy to families and friends. You can play with up to 4 people locally or online, choosing one of the iconic characters from the Super Mario universe. Roll the dice and prepare to play mini-games (more than 110 available) on seven different boards in the form of themed islands, including five new ones. Fights, shooting games, sled races, skill tests, etc. Super Mario Party Jamboree offers different ways to compete, sometimes playing with the movement of the Joy-Con, in classic or pro mode (with less help from luck).
The Legends of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
She is the other Nintendo princess. Zelda is now the heroine of her own game and it is she who must go and save Link, carried away in a rift somewhere, and the entire kingdom of Hyrule. Thanks to her scepter given by the fairy Tri, she can create echoes (reproductions) of objects to solve puzzles and advance in her quest by throwing rocks, overcoming obstacles using tables. Zelda can even recreate monsters to store at her side. You’ll have to be smart and synchronize with your creations to help the princess progress. Imagination is your best weapon.
MySims: Collection Cosy
MySims is back with this bundle of two retro games (MySims et MySims Kingdom) which are coming to Nintendo Switch. Two simulation games that allow you to create your environment, your city, your objects, your characters and to solve puzzles as you wander through the worlds offered. You will be able to find friends for your Sims and respond to their requests. The game mixes creativity, thinking and adventure with a cute and playful tone.
Neva
Aimed at an older audience, Neva is a game that relies heavily on its artistic direction and colorful graphics. Behind the title, we find the Spanish studio Nomada (Gris). It tells the story of Alba, accompanied by a wolf cub after crossing paths with dark forces. They will take the road to a world in decline where the challenges facing them multiply. An action-adventure game, Neva focuses above all on its narrative and emotional experience. The haunting music and the different hand-painted environments add a lot to the atmosphere of the game which addresses themes like loss, nature, resilience and the connection between living beings. A fairly short game that focuses on its atmosphere and aesthetics (4-5 hours).
Lorelei & The Laser Eyes
This strange game is not intended for the youngest players, but for the most experienced. Lorelei & The Laser Eyes takes you to a mysterious deserted hotel in central Europe where the heroine will try to understand what happened. The title has the air of David Lynch films with its strange atmosphere, its monochrome graphics sometimes tinged with red. But above all the new production from Simogo Studios (Sayonara Wild Hearts) offers an atypical game intended for fans of puzzles to twist their brains (and to solve together, notebook in hand), investigators at heart and fans of fantastic universes. If you prefer games with gameplay, move on.
