Walking to the next part of a map or into a building can sometimes take 20-30 seconds. The title screen itself requires about a solid one or two minutes of staring at a gif.

Especially with the fact that the game has really long load times.

But as for right now, this potentially relaxing game makes me want to chuck my switch into the lake whenever I’m making good progress and have to close it out. So I have to imagine there’s a patch en route. Hopefully, this is all stuff that gets resolved in a day one patch as the game, upon loading, proudly lets you know you’re playing Ooblets version 1.0.0. Again, I saved, closed the game out, reopened it, and found her walking the street acting like she wasn’t just pulling some Kitty Pryde nonsense a minute ago. Half stuck in a wall too far away for me to interact with. She was on the other side of a gate that couldn’t be opened yet. I looked everywhere for her only to eventually discover where she was. Eventually, I saved, closed the game, reopened it, and found I could suddenly access my furniture inventory.Ī similar thing happened when I needed to turn in some items to an NPC. I tried figuring it out for a while with the game letting me know that if I don’t sleep soon, my character would be exhausted the next day. So when I bought a new bed, cleared out my old bed, and then encountered an issue where the game just would not let me open the menu with my furniture so I could place my new bed, I panicked. You need that to mark the end of the day, refill your energy, and start the next chapter of your life. Bugs so bad I had to completely close out of the game and reopen it.įor example, the most important piece of furniture you own in the game is your bed. Despite this game being out elsewhere on other platforms, this game has bugs for days on Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately, there’s a fairly heavy problem that stops it from being a go-to relax game. It was satisfying for no reason beyond it just feeling like it was. The simple gameplay loop, the ability to go at my own pace, the chill music and bright color scheme - all of this combines into something that feels like stimming. Snide comments aside, this game is remarkably soothing.
