Swap This! is a two-dimensional puzzle game using the match-3 formula. The production was developed by the Dutch studio Two Tribes, which exists on the market since 2001 and specializes in small games for portable consoles and mobile devices.

Mechanics

The rules of Swap This! are extremely simple. The mission is to match colored ice cubes with frozen animals so that they form straight lines of the same color, which then explode spectacularly and disappear from the screen, releasing the animals. In order to be successful, we have to demonstrate perceptiveness, reflexes and speed, as well as strategic thinking (we have a certain amount of time to complete the board). We can change the positions of two adjacent cubes at once. The game enables us to build combos and throws various types of power-ups on the board from time to time.

If you're looking for a fun puzzle game that can conveniently be played with a touch screen only, no Joy-Con needed, Swap This! will provide at least a good couple of hours of fun.

NintendoWorldReport: 6 / 10 by Matthew Olivo

All and all, this is just a simple puzzle game for some younger player to dive into and get an experience for the genre themselves. If you're more of a puzzle veteran, I'd suggest possibly meeting up with a local archaeologist to discuss puzzles and leave this title to the youngsters.

Cubed3: 6 / 10 by Ofisil

Unfortunately, Swap This!, like most matching puzzle games, is exactly that: just a matching puzzle game. It looks good, it will satisfy your need for something fun and casual-friendly, and it carries a killer price... but don't expect something more out of it.
