About

The Swapper is an atmospheric puzzle platformer set in the furthest reaches of space. Players wield an experimental device able to clone the user and swap control between them. Dropped into a character and world as mysterious as the workings of the device itself, The Swapper is a game of exploration of a very personal nature.

    So overall, I would say 95% of this game is pure excellence. I had an absolutely fantastic time playing it and it was surprisingly long (I thought I could finish it in one sitting, but it actually took me two full nights of playing). It’s just a shame that one teeny tiny detail took my impression of it from great down to good. It’s still well worth playing even with the frustration, but without that minor detail it could have been one of the best.

    The Swapper is a game that will get you thinking, not only due to its clever puzzles, but because of the thoughts and feelings the game provokes through its narrative. Although it’s a short game (clocking in at around two to three hours depending on your ability to solve the game’s puzzles) The Swapper is definitely a game that is worth every penny of its asking price, especially as it is a Cross-Buy title. Similar to the clones that you will conjure up to assist you through this beautifully put together game, recommending The Swapper is a no-brainer.
