    If you can look past the missed opportunity that is the lack of motion controls, and the fairly simplistic gameplay, you’ll probably find a title that is entertaining in short bursts. Don’t expect it to light your world on fire, though.

    King Oddball manages to be unique an interesting amidst all the lookalikes. Thanks to its variety, different game modes, progression and well designed difficulty curve, King Oddball does a very competent job at keeping the players entertained and even if it will not convert the non-fans of the genre, it will be a good company during short gaming sessions.

    King Oddball isn’t a bad game, but it does feel misplaced on the Switch as it would any console; the handheld or tablet mode isn’t enough to make it work here. As the Switch library continues to grow at such an exponential rate there are more than enough games to drown out titles like this. At the time of writing King Oddball is currently a little more expensive on the Switch than it is for mobile. But both prices are still quite cheap. If you’re having trouble finding small time wasters to fill your Switch with then there’s worse ways to spend your time than King Oddball, but there’s also many better ones for not much more.
