For roughly the next nine days, those on all Nintendo Switch consoles, including the Switch 2, can grab Playdead’s Inside for just $2.49. As some may know, Inside is one of the great games available on the Nintendo eShop, as evidenced by its 93 on Metacritic, its five nominations at The Game Awards 2016, and its 96% aproval rating on Steam. Right alongside both Portal games, it is one of the best puzzle platformers ever made, in particular. And at $2.49, it is among the cheapest games on the eShop right now, and everything else in proximity to it doesn’t compare to its quality level.
2016’s Best Game?
The official best game of 2016 is most argueably Overwatch, as it won Game of the Year that year at The Game Awards. However, the two highest-rated games of 2016 were Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End and Inside, both with their scores of 93.
For those who know nothing about it, Inside is the sophmore release from Danish studio Playdead, who has yet to put out a game since, which means it is also the latest release from the European studio, despite being a decade old. It is the spirtual successor to the studio’s first game, the equally critically-acclaimed Limbo, which released six years prior in 2010.
