Roots Of Pacha Nintendo Switch Review!

[@RootsofPacha]

Thank you for playing! A few happy tears may have been shed. 💖

[@SwitchUpYt]

That's so cool guys - well done for getting to this stage! I shall pin this comment for posterity ! Mark

[@Caffrey90]

Great job! This looks amazing! ❤

[@XhoowieX]

​@@SwitchUpYtyou probably meant posterity, but I like the idea that you're that confident about the power of pinning.

[@Justlenor]

This game review single handedly got me to buy the game tonight. Can't wait to play once the kiddo goes to sleep!

[@evaguess2313]

Thanks for the game, it is heartwarming

[@MrJimithee]

Glad to see it running so nicely on Switch... It won't require an "All PACHA-d Up" video...

[@SwitchUpYt]

Eyyyyyyy! GG! Mark

[@n1nj4l1nk]

Which is a shame as that was a gem.

[@SwitchUpYt]

Feels like a bit of a redemption arc for this one - Roots of Pacha is finally on Switch and feels the perfect home for it. Here’s everything you need to know! Mark

This game feels very promising. I really liked what you said about the sense of community in it, and I loved the mechanic of befriending animals rather than buying them. So yes, again you made me very interested and curious about a game, wish I could try them all! I’m quite new to the Switch, and this channel is such a gold mine of quality content, thanks for it all, love your reviews

[@silverfido069]

I really wish we could get Travelers Rest on the switch..

[@Caffrey90]

It feels so familiar yet so different. It might be the highlight release of this week 😮😮

[@SwitchUpYt]

Yeah that’s exactly how it feels. Mark

[@AuraysTimelessChannel]

I'm like 80 hours in Sandrock and I CAN'T STOP! Maybe after that and Coral Island, I'll find time for this one. Exciting times for us.

[@hobbycathartic]

This looks like it will be my newest gaming addiction. Thank you for introducing this game.

[@Mystygirl2]

Bought it today and about to start playing it. I've been looking forward to it for ages.

[@Mystygirl2]

Update..... what a fantastic game! I'm really loving it. Don't want to stop playing, but I need to sleep, work in the morning!

@@Mystygirl2 Thank you so much for playing and your kind words! 😍😍😍

[@teddycheddar1114]

I really like the idea system! I know it’s basically a way to give quests but it seems like it does a genuinely good job of making it feel like a real community effort. Had no idea this was already out on Switch, thanks for the review!

[@FADEDMIRAGE]

I had no idea this game was releasing on switch; or even existed - I'm very impressed with what I see - I hope to be able to get it soon!

[@lostpeonies]

I've been on and off following this game for a while, but I wasn't familiar with the problems with the publisher. Glad to hear that it was resolved and they were able to release! Definitely putting this on the watch list, thanks for the review!

[@nataliebaker4942]

Thanks for the review! Shame they had so many probs but good to hear it’s resolved.

[@dinara_safina]

I've been looking forward to this one for so long! Thank you so much for the review. This will be the perfect addiction during the cold weather!

[@jacobchristian8943]

I tried playing this on Steam, but felt like the Switch would be the better way to experience this game.

[@Ser-Smiley]

Look at that gorgeous pixel art! I want this! Into my wishlist this goes. 😋

[@RootsofPacha]

Thank you for your kind words and adding us to your wishlist! 😍😍

[@Ray__E]

Never heard of this one until now. I love the art style. I don't play many farming simulators but will definitely check this one out at some point.

[@ARenegadeNoob]

Struggled to get into stardew valley so was originally not that interested in this one, but the clan contribution system does sound interesting. Maybe enough for me to give it a shot

[@Mariahtchi]

Reminds me of virtual villagers ❤ Adding this to the list!

[@kevinlie22]

i just bought it after watch this review, so far so good. Really appreciate how they tackle the community & how we make different

[@silla42]

I’m so glad everything got sorted out in the end, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get it. I’ve been looking forward to it for ages :)

[@dotBlank182]

This actually looks great! I can't get the game right now but I'm definitely getting it next month.

[@scorpio7957]

Seems like Roots of Pacha took it's roots from Stardew hehe. (I spend 10 minutes thinking of a pun, m'kay. It's bad, but works!) I am huge fan of farming/life sim games. This one looks promising! Anyways guys, would love to see a video in which you make a top 10 of all Farming sims on Switch. Not just Stardew and the lot, but also the ones which came out this year. It's too much to keep taps on if you ask me.

[@markphillips8605]

I was on the fence about this one but I've come to trust your reviews so cheers for making my mind up. At that price it looks like a bargain 👍

[@kevinphelps5807]

almost every time I watch a switch up vid I end up adding to my backlog!

[@TRICO-WANDER]

Was hoping you'd do a review, and here it is! ❤

[@SwitchUpYt]

Hope you like it! Mark

[@SiobhanR28]

I actually love the look of this one! Cheers guys 🎉

Yes mate this was a great time! Mark

[@jasuly]

This game looked very interesting to me when I first saw it and thank you for this review will definitely try and get it whenever I can.

[@MiaNWC]

Sorry if someone else commented but you can track where people are by pulling up the map, at least on the steam version :)

[@hughpeoples7022]

I would love it if you could wrangle eshop credit for Australia! I know it’s tricky and probably unlikely. I love the humour and presentation style! Definately my favourite switch channel. Keep it up!!

[@miaoFoodNow]

Dude with the beard has got a sympathetic vibe going on. If I had to play a farming game, it would be this one.

[@sanne_vd]

I've been waiting for this one, I'm so glad it's finally here!

[@Mr.Vetkoek]

A well written Review! This could be my Game for the holidays. I think the price is also fine.

[@pheonix9372]

Though in theory I like this genre I've really only ever played a bit of Stardew Valley. As long as the fishing isn't as fiddly as Stardew I'm pretty sold. Yay credits for Canada!

[@electricmariposa]

I’m SO excited about this game!!! …I love y’alls review channel! ❤️

[@SwitchUpYt]

Thank you mate!

[@dewyntre]

I’ve been waiting for this game, so glad it’s here! 🥰 and the snippet of the soundtrack you played reminded me of the old Zoo Tycoon music, love it! Thank you for the review!

[@rocksteady140]

I was looking if there is a switchup review of this game a few hours ago 😂 Boom, here it is...

[@meetsintaverns5330]

That looks fantastic and a nice take on the genre. Dungeons were mentioned - is there any combat?

There's no combat in the game. There are some puzzles in the caves, nothing to crazy tho.

lmao, I was wondering if it would be ported one day, but here it is catching us by surprise

[@NicholasHutchings]

I'm a little tired or straight-out farming sims (although it's refreshing to see a relative doesn't die in this one), and I'm not fond of pixel art these days... but this one has piqued my interest. Think it might go on the wishlist and wait for a sale.

[@chelseap9970]

Got a Nintendo eshop card for Christmas and needed to watch this review to see if it was worth it!

[@RolyGuacamole]

Great review!! Put in many hours on the steam deck version, and excited for the switch one. I would only disagree on the music not being memorable, but to each his own. It's the only cozy game i find myself humming tunes from, especially as a Hispanic, the vibes in the music are spot on. Cant wait to play on Switch.

[@Larsanthimum]

A refreshing approach to farming games and I’m here for it

[@SwitchUpYt]

definitely! Mark

[@picnicentry]

Community gameplay and animals? Sign me up

[@Freakgirl1985]

I was so addicted to it in April / May! Loved it so much, but once I had seen it all, I was done with it. Unfortunately none of my games are much into farming sims. Must be amazing to play in MP.

[@Just_jarmo]

I love this game! I have it on Steam and will probably pick it up on Switch as well.

[@RootsofPacha]

Thank you for playing! 😍

Since i have to wait 3 days for DQ monster. I'll pick it up tomorrow. Great review! I'm also burn out from farming games, need a refresher.

[@Leopez02]

LOVE tje art-style of this BEAUTIFUL game! ❤😮

[@yasinachekzai2567]

Seems quite perfect for me. I generally like the genre, but am very, very bored by the same old setting. And since I am also a bit of a stone age-head, this one seems like a must. Thanks for the review!

[@tasha8102]

Loved this game…been waiting a long time for it come out. This is an early holiday surprise!! Love the review😊

[@amountainofsmoke]

This looks promising, I like the idea that you can feel more like part of a community rather than a solo farmer getting NPC's numbers to go up. How fast does the day/night cycle run? I've found the clocks in some farming games are a little too fast to make for a relaxing experience.

[@RootsofPacha]

Good question, there is an option to change your own games day length before you play so each in game day can be 15, 17.5 or, 20 minutes long depending on what you like. 🥰

[@amountainofsmoke]

@@RootsofPacha Thanks for the answer. Looks like a great game, you've done a good job on it. I'll be picking it up!

How quickly does the game's clock advance? I was always annoyed by Stardew's. It always felt like the day was over way too fast. Rune Factory 4's speed was much more to my liking.

Finally a farming sim after stardew that looks worth getting into. Thanks for these in depth reviews!

The developers mentioned Stardew as an inspiration, and as a fervent Stardew lover who backed Roots of Pacha on kickstarter, I'm sure you'll love it!

[@sweetiepie1291]

Omg, is there a physical edition of it?

[@RootsofPacha]

A physical edition isn't in our plans right now 🥰

[@UndeadEggmiester]

Yay more farming sim games... I mean that the best way I can. It's nice seeing this being a little different then the rest. Of course we technically got one " prehistoric farming sim" this year. I wonder if this will be better or worse or different

[@padmoch2207]

It's probably the perfect game for the current winter evenings, I was waiting for something that would replace Stardew Valley for me 😅

[@yvonnesoki4825]

Why is the multiplayer on switch not working at all?

[@pinkster0078]

Great review, very tempted. When’s the Batman trilogy review up?

[@ZamWeazle]

Who's to say there will be one necessarily? The Last Faith or Astral Ascent were games that I assumed Mark would do reviews on but for whatever reason they didn't materialise. Mark and Glen are obviously very busy guys and they do a herculean task of getting as many wonderful reviews out as they can out to us! This i cannot fault them for! ❤ What i can say however is that the Arkham games have a broader appeal than those indies and there's a higher likelihood that it may get a review! 👍

[@10k-Noodles]

Been looking for one of these types of games to play for a while. Keep looking at Stardew and Story of Seasons. Just never pull the trigger.

[@AZ23MJ]

Besides Stardew, these types of games usually aren’t for me. This one though, tempts me. Wish there was a demo but may jump in anyways

[@thelonemask]

This game feels eerily similar to stardew valley. But I’m not complaining.

[@patogordo1385]

not for me this one, I think - 87 is a very high score, interesting. Thanks for the vid

It looks a bit like a hippie commune.
