- Retro visuals run smoothly in docked and handheld play.
- Some precise controls, including shooting, feel awkward.

## Summary

Mouthwashing’s Nintendo Switch port brings the acclaimed 2024 indie horror game to console, where its handheld format makes the claustrophobic story feel especially immediate. The review says the port preserves the game’s atmosphere and works well on Switch, making it an appealing way for new players to experience the story and for returning players to revisit it.

Set aboard the freighter Tulpar after a crew member crashes it into an asteroid, the game follows a dwindling crew through events before and after the accident. Its non-linear story shifts between two characters and mixes exploration with nightmare sequences; the reviewer praises its retro visuals and growing sense of dread, while noting that occasional precision controls, especially in a shooting sequence, can be frustrating.
