Blue Prince for the Nintendo Switch 2
Did I already sink more than 60 hours into this environmental puzzle mansion-builder last year? Yes. Could I take my existing purchase and perhaps find a way to make it playable on-the-go from a mobile device by using a cloud service? Yeah. But do I regret having a fresh digital copy of the game on my $450 glorified tablet? No. It is still great fun.
I reached Room 46 yesterday, but have yet to actually enjoy the rewards of the room because the game infamously cuts to credits and ends your day the first time you do it. Guess I’ll just have to play a dozen more hours.

I would say it’s the best Nintendo platformer since Kirby and the Forgotten Land? There’s a balance here between mindless button mashing to punch away all the destructible terrain and some thinking in trying to solve environmental puzzles.
My one major complaint is that the boss battles into the third main level have been ludicrously short and straightforward, although my latest encounter battling a monster on a mine cart was a step above the rest.
