Some of indie gamesare really good and I also recommend these for the switch too Stardew Valley, Blasphemous, Black Bird, Dex, Gunman Clive, Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 1 and 2, Blaster Master trilogy, and River City girls. That's just my recommendation
@butterworthboys498511 ай бұрын
For me, Blasphemous is right up there with Hollow Knight and Dead Cells as the best indie games on Switch.

One indie game that was not mentioned here that I seriously enjoyed was Shantae and the Seven Sirens. While I do really like Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, as well as Shantae 1/2 Genie Hero, Shantae and the Seven Sirens is my favorite. It has a lovely 8-bit soundtrack, amazing new characters, awesome boss battles, and some pretty cool areas. The addition of the Director's Cut update added a surprisingly challenging variety of modes. I even have a tradition to replay Shantae and the Seven Sirens every year on June 2nd.

@seapanther5311 ай бұрын
@knightley_6779 I loved the Ori series and absolutely loved playing Sea of Stars. I'm actually only playing The Messenger to get a little more out of Sea of Stars since they are in the same universe. I'm halfway through but had to put it down for a bit because the boss fights and some of the levels are ridiculously hard to beat. I'm currently at 248 deaths making it not so fun to play anymore. I heard about Chained Echoes because of Sea of Stars and am only a couple hours into it. Some reviewers love it more than Sea of Stars and I personally don't see why. That's not to say it won't be a good game but so far I have noticed some wokeisms (which I hate to see in games), some plays off of actual false flag events that happened in our real world (which is interesting), and some really disturbing things like a guy getting ready to eat a cake with a baby in it (I have no idea why they thought that was a good idea to put in). But as you can see, besides Ori the other games I'm playing are because Sea of Stars is that great. On deck is Octopath Travelers 2.

At this point, I would be incredibly surprised if Silk Song releases on the switch, maybe the Switch predecessor but seriously you are the first person to mention Silk Song in about a year. It just fell off the face of the earth. It would be great if it came out in time for the Hollidays and when and if it does release, it better get a actual physical and not something like LRG or Special Reserve because it took over 2 years to get the games i ordered.

While Hollow Knight is the only one of the indie games mentioned here that I played and seriously enjoyed, it's still a really fun game. I'm just sad that I didn't get into Hollow Knight sooner, since I only got into it a couple years ago. Unlike Cuphead, which greatly disappointed me at how easy it was, Hollow Knight was a wonderful challenge. There's enough in the game to keep you coming back for more. The bosses are incredible and have variety for the most part. The lore is so deep, despite being incredibly vague. Finally, it has some awesome areas. If only Team Cherry would stop holding out on us with Silksong.
