79 Metacritic score and a Main Story of about 3½ hours. It has a demo and the sale ends February 27, so enough time to try it out and see if you like it.

Thomas Was Alone is a charming little puzzle platformer that I believe originally started as a flash game.

This is an awesome game that got me into Indies back in the Vita days. Coincidentally, I had just started playing through it again on the Vita because the DLC was recently on sale on PS. I'm listening to the commentary track and have found it very interesting. The developer, Mike Bithell, does a podcast called "Play, Watch, Listen" with some other industry insiders that I've listened to a few times.

Another one of the developer's games, Solitaire Conspiracy, is on sale on eShop. I picked it up over the weekend, but I haven't given it a go yet.

I picked this up for PSN when it was a $1 a few weeks ago. The game is very short, but it was really fun. I'd gladly pay 5x more for it, knowing how much I enjoyed it Big Grin

On the store page: https://www.nintendo.com/games/de...ne-switch/
I believe you need to be logged in to see button "Download demo".
Clicking it sends demo to your switch.

It's a "portal" (first one) like experience. Short and sweet with good pacing does not overstay it's welcome.

I already know how this story ends. It all started way back in middle school and hasn't really let up since. That's the reason I have a constant deal alert set for Lubriderm, Jergens, and Vaseline Intensive Care (winter hands). That and because I'm married. I think we can all relate to Thomas, at least at some point or another.
