Nihilumbra Review
From the gorgeous settings, to the wonderful narrative development, and the smart implementation of sharp puzzle elements, Nihiliumbra is an absolute joy to play. It also works marvellously on Nintendo Switch, especially in handheld mode where its touch-screen interactions elevate what was already a fine platform-puzzler to a far higher level, making it something extremely special indeed.

Nihilumbra is the kind of game that clearly has grand ambitions, but it seldom has the chops to properly pull things off. The ho-hum puzzle platforming doesn’t really have anything new to offer, and though the art direction is great, it can often be dragged down by that pesky narrator. Couple that with the low amount of content and generally low difficulty, and you’ve got a game that’s rather difficult to recommend, especially when a significantly cheaper and almost identical version is available on the device in your pocket. If you see this one on sale, or are looking for something that might make you think a little more than something like Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition, this one might be worth a go, but we’d otherwise advise you give this one a pass.
