Buddy Simulator 1984 may not have the best RPG mechanics in the world, and you may as well forget about playing it in docked mode due to the level of text input involved early doors, but see past these minor gripes and this Switch port of a 2021 Steam belter is absolutely worth your time.

However, as the game progresses, the line between reality and simulation blurs, leading to unnerving and suspenseful encounters.
