Therefore, we endeavour to pick and choose games that look interesting and that we think will interest you.

Earlier this year <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/features\/community-check-out-12-switch-games-we-missed-recommended-by-you\">we asked Nintendo Life readers to send us recommendations<\/a> for games we didn&#8217;t manage to review.

Each entry (with one exception) features quotes from users, lightly edited in some cases. We&#8217;ve included a trailer for each game, too, to help bring you up to speed quickly.<\/p>\n<p>Lacking in Switch games to keep you busy over the holiday season?

KrazyKain had this to say:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This Strange Realm of Mine appears at first glance to be another retro shooter, and while it is that, it is also a poetic exploration of what it is to be dead, and accept your own mortality. It also has an amazing level on social anxiety that has stuck with me for months.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<aside class=\"object object-youtube\"><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"list-item\">\n<div class=\"list-hero\" data-subject=\"games\/switch-eshop\/mini_metro\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/29b75b5992edd\/mini-metro-artwork.900x250.jpg\" width=\"900\" height=\"250\" alt=\"Mini Metro (Switch eShop)\"><a class=\"cover\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/mini_metro\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/9dcda57ee6b91\/mini-metro-cover.cover_small.jpg\" alt=\"Mini Metro (Switch eShop)\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"list-hero-info\">\n<p><span>Publisher: <\/span><strong>Radial Games<\/strong> \/ <span>Developer: <\/span><strong>Dinosaur Polo Club<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"release\"><span>Release Date: <\/span><strong>30th Aug 2018 (<abbr title=\"United States \/ North America\">USA<\/abbr>)<\/strong> \/ <strong>30th Aug 2018 (<abbr title=\"UK \/ European\">UK\/EU<\/abbr>)<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/mini_metro\">Mini Metro<\/a><\/strong> is a relaxed subway network sim and puzzle game which we&#8217;ve enjoyed elsewhere and which made the journey to Switch a couple of years ago. NL reader pAq gives it an enthusiastic recommendation (along with another game in a similar vein):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I\u2019d like to recommend Mini Metro (and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/911_operator\">911 Operator<\/a><\/strong>), They are both sort of a top down simulation, with the former being more simplistic and symbolic in building a metro map, while the latter allows you to dive deeper into coordinating emergency units.

Using the ball and paddle you destroy obstacles and crush enemies. You control two guys that the Grim Reaper turns into women, Andy controls the paddle while Bob is inside the ball you hit. They explore many floors inside Dracula&#8217;s castle in search of the Dealer&#8217;s lost souls. There are also cutscenes with humorous yet crude dialogue.

It&#8217;s a fascinating 1st person adventure game in which you&#8217;re exploring an abandoned compound of a cult.

Each monster has a unique trait, by various mechanics you end up building a team with around 15 traits. The goal being for these to interact in a way to make you unbeatable. It has a huge amount of content and never ends.

You play a mischievous wum, a little round creature that can wear various hats. The NPCs interact with the world in a way that makes it feel more alive and real than a lot of AAA games. Wuppo is fun and funny, it&#8217;s hard to play this game without constantly smiling. It feels really unique and mostly does its own thing, it&#8217;s hard to compare to other games.
