You realize that your typing on a forum, correct? You honestly believe that he doesn't know what YouTube is?? He's asking other people's opinion. Why don't you two get off your high horse, and answer the damn question. Or if you don't feel like answering the question, then leave it be for somebody who actually likes to contribute to the community.



Found this on Metacritic, hope this helps you make an informed decision:

The port is fine. Controls are fine, a little clunky but not bad. It's an okay adventure/puzzle game but the gameplay is very, very easy.

If you are a veteran of sierra/lucasarts era or seventh guest/myst era games you'll blast through it in a couple days. Worth $2, but not much more.

Gotcha. Are the graphics alright on the Switch? Is it a good port? Controls okay? With games like this that they bring to the Switch there's a little more too it then just portability.

You could always go on YouTube and watch reviews/gameplay to see the difference between the Switch ports and others so you don't have to waste your hard earned cash on this premium priced bundle.

Edit: I guess I need to point out I'm trying to be funny and not offensive

Syberia on the Nintendo Switch runs great of course, it is a 15-year old game after all, even though I notice some minor sound hiccups. The thing that I enjoyed most about this port is that you can play the entire game with only one Joy-con at hand and that makes for a really comfortable experience! On the other hand I really did not enjoy the limited 4:3 aspect ratio especially on portable/handheld mode as the screen of the Nintendo Switch is already quite small and reading text like in subtitles or in-game documents was really difficult at times, apart from the fact that you cannot appreciate the environments/graphics as much. The "stretched" widescreen mode is simply ridiculous as the character models are distorted. This is the biggest downside for me about this port, they could really have offered more visual options like a "zoomed-in 16:9 ratio" that fills the screen nicely without distortions...

I beat the first one. It's not bad for $1 each. Got my $1 and then some enjoyment out of it.

Thanks everyone. FWIW I asked here because I sometimes tend to trust off the cuff comments/reviews/opinions of products/games/etc on SD more than the possibly paid for/sponsored reviews on YouTube or even sometimes on Reddit.

They play fine enough if the Switch is your only method of playing them, especially at $2 for the first two games, but the 3rd will be pricier on Switch. If you have the ability to play them on PC to experience the original feel/control of them (point & click adventure), the first two are currently $2 each on Steam and the 3rd is $4.50. So, it's cheaper that way.

And btw, my comment previously about YouTube wasn't to insult your intelligence etc, but rather to suggest going and at least watching various gameplay etc videos to see how it looks and plays. I've come across plenty of people that don't even bother with that stuff before purchasing games and then acting all "how was i supposed to know" when the game wasn't what they expected.
