Elli, an isometric puzzle platformer for Nintendo Switch from BandanaKid, isn’t a game that’ll wow you, by any means.
On Elli’s 600th birthday, the mysterious Ghasti steals the time crystals, leaving the world to end when midnight arrives. It’s your job as Elli to recover all the crystals before tomorrow becomes the end of history. A simple story can always fit a peaceful adventure, but a simple challenge will not always fly.
TSA writes: "Games are just lovely these days aren’t they? Ok, maybe not the regular murder simulators that clog up the gaming chart’s top twenty, but increasingly amongst the weekly indie releases there’s a real sense of artistry to be found. Elli can be found nestling in the Switch’s eShop, and while this indie platforming adventure may not offer any hair-trigger thrills, it’s a relaxed little gem that might just serve as a counterpoint to the hectic world we live in."
Elli is a Nintendo Switch exclusive that is a pleasant mix of platforming and puzzle-solving. However, that "pleasant" combination is over far too soon. See SuperPhillip Central's full thoughts on Elli with this review.
