€ 19,99, 6GB; no physical (yet). shortcomings: controls lack polishing, few glitches, framerate issues or no real reward in finding secrets. Combat aspect also is disappointing in many ways. Recap: It's this type of game that you like in the beginning, but offers you nothing more the more you progress. => utter trash, but do try the demo.
@kosterix "Utter trash, but do try the demo"? Huh? Hob is one of the most underrated games on the Switch, colourful and fun, and very unique.
