    I'd gladly give 9 to this collection because I love Amnesia. I gave it a try because it was cheap as hell and I had some eShop coins.
    The three games (TDD, Justine, AMFP) are amazing but it's not incredible on Switch. During a Dark Descent run, the game froze and the audio looped for ten seconds during a script. There is also some framerate issues. In Machine for Pigs, there's a lot of    I'd gladly give 9 to this collection because I love Amnesia.

    The three games (TDD, Justine, AMFP) are amazing but it's not incredible on Switch. During a Dark Descent run, the game froze and the audio looped for ten seconds during a script. There is also some framerate issues. In Machine for Pigs, there's a lot of tiny visual glitches too. Also, when you press X (aka your journal) there is an ugly buggy fade-out effect.
    That being said the games are incredible in my opinion, but if you can play them somewhere else, go for it.    … Expand

    The Amnesia games are some of the best horror titles to ever be released, but things have moved on and its dated graphics, lack of polish and some performance issues hinder the Nintendo Switch release. Ultimately, however, if you are a fan of horror games, the package is worth it alone just to play The Dark Descent, one of the most influential games of the past ten years. Just be aware that, as the darkness in these games, time has not been its friend.

    Amnesia is a horror classic that has lost a little of its bite over the years, but can still provide some genuine scares. Performance issues do bring this version down, but the games are still worth experiencing for new players.

    Amnesia Collection on Switch may lack the slick polish and fidelity of the PlayStation 4, but at the very least, The Dark Descent survived mostly intact, and is still an excellent version of the scariest game ever made. It is too bad that the other entries in the collection are not quite up to the Frictional Games' standard of quality, but even in their own merits they are decent compared to most other first-person horror titles on Switch. A Machine For Pigs, being the least restraint and absurd, makes it hard to take it seriously, but does have some qualities that make it an amusing guilty pleasure. At the very least it never bores.
