It's almost exactly a year to the day since Mom Hid My Game! launched on Switch and Nintendo 3DS, and celebrating its anniversary in style, the game is now on sale for a limited time on both systems.
If you haven't heard of this one before, Mom Hid My Game! is described as "an easy-going and funny escape game" in which your in-game mom rather literally hides your favourite games console. The absolute cheek of it.
We found that it had both good and bad points in our review last year; while its admittedly lower production mobile origins leave a lot to be desired, it has its own quirky charm to it reminiscent of games like WarioWare. It's definitely an interesting one at the very least.
You'd usually expect to find the game available for $4.99 / £4.49, but this 30% sale takes that price down to $3.49 / £3.19 - the sale lasts until 9th January. If you're after something rather different, and very silly, you might want to consider giving this one a chance.

Is a £1.50 reduction in the price of a 6/10 game a worthy news story? Starlink is on sale in Smyths and Amazon for £20. There's a story.
@frabbit any thing other than mass reductions like Black Friday or a crazy sale on a massive game (like if Smash was currently selling for £15 somewhere) shouldn’t be seen as news worthy
Mom Hid My Discounts! 😂
What a savings...
What about the other 360 games currently on sale?
I'm assuming this must be paid advertisement or something? A small discount to one average game isn't exactly news.
Why does this article even exist? @BenAV : Your hypothesis makes sense.
It's a cute novelty at best, but Gamer from Game & Wario and WarioWare Gold are far superior executions of a very similar concept.
@frabbit The best way to show you're not interested in a story is to click on it and post a comment.
I have seen footage of this game. It is as fun as much as its cheap and unpolished. Also I'm sure it has no replayability at all. I believe it is free on mobile.
The best way to enjoy it is watching some fun youtuber playing it.
It is not a waste of time, but buying it would be a waste of money...
It was expecially fun in the video I saw since the translation of the title in my native language (not english) was really poor and it made it even more entertaining.
@Sabroni "Starlink is on sale in Smyths and Amazon for £20. There's a story." Did you miss that bit?
@frabbit Sabroni was being facetious. 🧐
"Crap 1 year old mobile game gets 33% discount"
What a strange article! Even if this had 90% off, it wouldn't warrant an article. Seems like a paid advertisment to me, just as the one for the Team 17 game the other day clearly was. Please do not go down this path Nintendolife, this is junk reporting.
@JackEatsSparrows By saying I shouldn't have commented if I'm not interested in the story. I'm saying I had a valid point to make.
If I've misread the sarcasm and it wasn't a dig then I suppose we're all good here.
I'm gonna be honest. I really liked this game! Recording rapped up for the lets play a week ago and I'm almost done with editing. The ending is super trippy. Give it a shot! It's pretty good!
I wouldn't want it even if it's free.
@Retupmocnin It is free, on the Google Play store. Not worth it, if you can get the same experience someplace else for none of your money.
