Switch Owners Can Claim A Free Game This Weekend If They Already Own One Of These Titles

Switch! Alternative to mobile phone gaming

It actually sounds like a decent game: https://www.nintendoworldreport.com/review/54965/journey-of-the-broken-circle-switch-review

I've been considering buying Lydia for a while so might grab the two of them for £3.50

@Spartan48 It's not a phone game... It's on Steam and Switch.

@Clyde_Radcliffe I know that but a majority of games on the eshop are basically games that can run on a phone. Smh

@Spartan48 to be fair, phones are really powerful these days

Arrrghhh what a Clickbait! I thought a free game in general. I think the company name should be added in the title. 😂

@BenAV

Well I still see this critical, I wouldn’t want to support a game that doesn’t meet curtain quality standards. 😀

This is actually quite a good game. Follows the theme of philosophy and human condition set by the other Nakana titles, but reminds me of PikuNiku meets Thomas Was Alone

Oh, so that's why this was free.

Is there a trend of games that seem like they were written by middle schoolers lately? This writing just seems really juvenile. And people were gushing about To the Moon recently too so I picked it up and had to put it down after a couple hours because I didn't want to read something that read like bad teenage fan fic.

Ooooh, that is why it popped up free. Ha ha. Yeah, downloaded.

I had Infini and Lydia already.

@BenAV Same. I think I even gave a $1 - gold points - to Egg to plant a tree. My son tried them all out 1 day, as did I, but nothing stuck.

There was 1 sailing left on a raft to islands that seemed interesting but the brown 2-bit graphics wasn't for me.

But yeah, download.

So the polygamous circle has a hole that needs to be filled?

Big developers should learn from these guys, we pay one of their games 0.99$ and you are hooked with a lot of free games (besides their quality, some of the, are pretty interesting, like Infini)

I copped it. Hey, it was free. Sounds alright, might get round to it one day.

It's a cool trip. It's more trip than game. I like it so far.

@Spartan48 anyone would think that PC, PS4 and Xbox one never had its it's fair share of mobile ports right.

Also if you are not buying them why do you care? The eshop has plenty of quality non mobile games. Eshop has Hades right now which other consoles don't but hey let's have a moan about eshop selling mobile ports!!

I am the tipper (maybe some others too, I don't know).

You mean I have to buy one of their other games first?

isn't this just that book The Missing Piece by Shel Silverstein

@kobashi100 cool story

I'm thanking for the developers.
I got it for free, tried it and I actually got more excited about it than Mario 3D All-Stars that I got the same day.

It's a platformer with fun physics that's about our journey and goals, too (searching for our missing half).
It has really hit the spot for me.

I didn't realize that's how I got it free. I saw it listed for FREE when buying SMAS and decided to try it out. It's actually a pretty deep thinking game. I like it.

Downloaded for free from this link in the article - on my
PC now - so thanks to Nintendo and Nintendo Life for making that possible.

This one looks like it might even be worth playing. I need something to break up The Wticher 3 play sessions.

@BenAV Same here

@Spartan48 most games on all systems could run on phones.

So Pac-Man before he met the ghosts and maze?

Thanks, NL. I picked it up.

They’re slowly making my switch library the same as my Steam one: full of small, poignant indie games that I don’t remember buying.

@carlos82 Phones suprpassed Switch in power 2-3 years ago when Galaxy S9 phone came.

Phones is far more powerful than Switch now, but lacks good games to use the hardware.

I have to own another game first that I probally don't have, not exactly free but still cool for those that can take part.

Cheers everybody.

It looks ok. Tbf Eqqo and Soul Searching both look like something I would enjoy, though. So, may as well get one and this for free.

They just keep giving their games away. Not complaining,and actually enjoying this game.

Claimed. Thanks NL.

I finished it today and I really enjoyed it. My only complaint was the control physics, but I also admit that my Joycons have a bad case of drift. All in all though, it was fun!

Got the game. I was really enjoying it until I got to the ice level. I triggered a few lines, but then I can't move. Buttons do nothing. Restarting the level only lets me get to the exact same spot, this time stopping without the conversation. I want to finish it, but I can't

Can you even call this a game? Wouldn't you rather spend your time playing some real games? At least use that time to play NG+ on your already finished games. There are thousands of these available everywhere and they are all bad. By downloading and therefore supporting these kind of ad games you ensure that Nintendo puts more of them on the platform instead of working hard on making new IP's. Pretty soon you'll get Nintendo Directs full of titles as "good" as this. And there's nothing you can do about it because well, lots of people download these, and a small number actually "play" them so Nintendo sees these ad games as popular and has no incentive to go bigger. Do the platform a favour, do yourself a favor and don't even download these kind of games. Especially when you know you'll never play them. Haven't you had enough of the store full of nonsense demos and things that can barely be called "games" junk up the space and inundating the store with useless content? Having "games" for the sake of having them is pointless and useless and you won't impress anyone with your collection of free mobile games that are already bad and everyone can download thousands of at any point.

@UndercoverPneuma Have you tried this game? Because it's very nice. Sure, it's no AAA title, but I mean, just because you like wine doesn't mean you have to stop drinking tap water and can only drink wine, eh?

So how does this work anyways?!?
