REVIEW: Gobliiins Collection (2026 Video Game) - on Nintendo Switch

 

Gobliiins Collection on Nintendo Switch brings together five entries in the long running puzzle adventure series originally released between 1991 and 2023, presented as a faithful archive of the franchise’s strange humour and demanding gameplay. It includes multiple versions of the early games along with a strong set of bonus materials such as design documents, packaging models and a documentary interview with Pierre Gilhodes.


The collection plays well on Switch, although the point and click structure still feels naturally suited to mouse controls. The puzzles remain notoriously difficult, which will please returning players but may frustrate newcomers. The absence of Gobliins 6: The Madmen of the Year 1000 is a noticeable gap in what is otherwise presented as a complete set.

REVIEW: Midnight Swamp (2026 Video Game) - on PS5


Midnight Swamp is a dark point and click adventure set inside a strange fairy tale world, where a simple night by a lake turns into something far more unsettling. It keeps things tight and focused, leaning into old school design with puzzles that are fair, logical, and satisfying to solve. The hand drawn visuals suit the tone well, giving the swamp and its odd inhabitants a slightly storybook but uneasy feel.

The game is very short, which is its biggest drawback, often finishing in under an hour. There is some replay value for achievements, including a missable task involving the cat, but the experience still feels more like a compact vignette than a full adventure. Even so, it carries enough charm and atmosphere to make it worthwhile for fans of classic point and click games.
