The menu icons for your Switch games have become a hot topic amongst certain fans who love to scrutinse them and suggest how they might be improved. It's easy to understand; these images replace box covers as the key art presenting a game to anyone who buys digital, so how it looks on our menu screens is important, right? And with so many games on Switch, it's handy to be able to scroll through your library and quickly find the game you want via its eye-catching icon.
But how well do you know your Switch game icons? Below we've assembled 21 of them with the titles removed or blurred where necessary. Can you name the games they belong to?

Easiest quiz yet for me, 21/21. I buy way too many games and own most of these...
18/21!!!! Love this quizzes, keep el coming!
Got 14 out of the 21. Tho 3 of those I was doubting between the right answer and the one I chose, pretty good for having only installed a few if them.
9/21 whoop whoop
My god, I got 16/21. This shocks me because I've played only 6 of the games listed. I guess marketing must be stronger than I thought, and I go out of my way to avoid ads!
18/21. Messed up on the last three games.
18/21. So much fun.
15/21. I have way too much to play..
I enjoyed this one, great idea.
The only one I got wrong was Rime. As soon as I saw the icon I thought of To the Moon, so chose that. If the actual To the Moon icon had come first, I'd have probably gone with Rime and got them all right. The only ones that really made me think, were Tricky Towers and Hellblade. I only own 6 of the games featured too.
16/21. mistake here and there. Mostly on the games i don't have.
21/21
I care a lot about icons
20/21, failed To the Moon (and narrowly blindguessed Hyper Light Drifter), but overall being - and routinely browsing stuff as - a digital buyer paid off. Even in the ironic situation where I barely have a quarter of the games listed.
16/21 not too shabby considering I've never played the majority of these
18/21. This quiz made me realise I must own way too many games, since on nearly every one I thought "oh that's easy, I own this one". Although I did manage to mess up one of the ones I own...
11/21. Pretty good considering I only have 24 Switch games, none of which were on here!
15/21 alot of these games i have never wven owned. A little common sense mixed with a little thought.
18. No idea how... I only own one of these. 😊
14 of 21. Surprised because I don't own most of those games.
17 right answers.
Guessed most!
16/21. Switch icon artwork really does look good most of the time, doesn't it?
14 of 21, well, for someone that didn't buy or download most of these games, really I had any of luck, XD
On the pictures above the article, what's in between Dark Souls and Steamworld?
Got 19 out of 21, only two obscure titles got me.
16/21 I'm happy with that
@BishopShiozawa Hellblade, it was on this quiz.
19/21 ! That Triskel for Hellblade was tricky !!!
20/21. I always confuse What Remains Of Edith Finch with The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter Lol. They sound so inner changeable
14/21, not bad given I only own 1 game out of the whole list.
20/21. I messed up with Edith Finch/Ethan Carter one.
Somehow got full marks even though I don't own many of these
Dunno what Sky Rogue is doing here - only one i've messed. 20/21
Didn't expect to get all 21 but here we are. Some were educated guesses, though.
19/21
Lots of great games in that quiz.
21/21 not bad not bad.
19 out of 21. Nice.
15/21 dang it. slight mistakes, shouldn't have rushed
Got 18/21 despite not knowing most of them. Multiple choice quizzes are easy when you get yourself into the mindset of the person writing them.
wow 20/21.... I don't know if I should be proud or scared.
Let's go with Proud
@Raccoonius 9 for me also.
@tabris95 made the exact same mistake haha only one I got wrong
14/21. Got tricky near the end.
18/21!I'm getting better.
13/21 I started super strong, then I fell off towards the end.
19/21. I thought the Senua's Sacrifice's icon was more Avatar: The Last Airbender/Legend of Kora lol
The ones I didn’t get I had never heard of🤷🏻♂️( I got 14 /21)
14/21
Most of these I don't even know about...
I got 17, not too shabby. I don’t own most of the ones I got but I like idly browsing the eshop.
20 of 21 I owned all of them beside that mistake.
I buy too much games
Got 16 out of 21. Not bad considering I haven't played most of these games, some of them were just lucky guesses.
19/21. I missed Everspace and Tricky Towers, though a few of them were just lucky guesses.
You scored 19 out of 21.
15-21: Icon tell you've got a sharp eye
17 out of 21, and I haven't played any of those games XD. I think I visit this website too often...
I'll admit I just guessed a lot of these and got a good bunch of them right that way. ...that said I only got 14. I don't own any of these games. Well unless you count Tetris 99 which is free... (and no, I didn't get the paid components of it.)
Is is good or bad if I'm calling out the names before I even see the choices? How about if I don't own over 3/4's of the list?
20/21, lost at Hellblade. Somehow I thought it was Blades.
19/21 guys these quiz are funny and interesting. Please keep publishing them from time to time!
I had my doubts with "to the moon" and chose the wrong one, and accidentally clicked "Warface" knowing it was Warframe.
I certainly don't have all of the games, but I recognised every art style (except for the one where i doubted)
Would be much easier if it was just first party titles
@Surv Sky Rogue I only knew because I started up the eshop today to download that free game and it was on the start page.
16/21 so not bad!
You scored 20 out of 21. Fairly easy if you're into art. Made one stupid mistake.
Keep the quizs' coming
8/21 did not do good
My worth summed up with a quize score
15/21
(edit: my spelling error of "quize" was quite nice. I'll leave it)
19/21. Guessed on a few lol
21/21, also a fan of icons.
Sad that Velocity 2X never got an upgrade from that pile of crap icon it currently has.
10/21, my Switch catalog is mostly first party; not a lot of indies and no mature titles.
The icon for Hellblade looks like an Avatar: The Last Airbender version of a fidget spinner.
4/21 I don't play much (any) games.
16/21 not too shabby!
20 out of 21. Good game
11/21 Considering I guessed on all but like three of them, that's not bad.
10/21, most of those lucky guesses. I have not played many Switch games, let alone digital-only games.
14/21. There's a running theme with the ones I missed:
Xeodrifter (never heard of it)
Hyper Light Drifter
Abzu
Everspace (never heard of it)
Velocity 2X (never heard of it)
Sky Rogue (never heard of it)
Tricky Towers (never heard of it)
I own exactly two of these and somehow scored 16/21.
@AlienX Odd thing to see on a Nintendo site.
18/21. Not too shabby I must say.
12/21. Could have been a lot worse since I've only played about 3 from the list.
11/21. I wasn't familiar with most of these games, only own a few of them.
19 out of 21! Pretty good!
17 of 21, let's go
I got 13 and lucked out on about half of those lol.
20/21 didn't know "Tricky Towers"-whatever that is.
16/21. A few of them I just didn't recognize. A lot of them I only knew because I spend way too much time browsing the E-shop.
16/21
Not bad seeing as I only own 3 games on the list...
I got 7. I guess I don't pay attention to a lot of the games on the eShop, but to be fair, there is a ton.
12/21 cant remember the names.
16 out of 21, nice!
@KingMike same here.. but some games seen Steam PC release as well so I guessed it off right there. 10/21.. and I don't own a switch. I guess it's ok score
16 for me and holy wow jus gonna download that subsurface game never heard of but looks awesome xx
Scored 17/21 (I just knew HLD would be on the list; a game I much highly recommend)
19/21 I mixed up Edith Finch with Ethan Carter and V2X with 198X.
18 out of 21, that's not bad at all.
