    Slime Rancher: Plortable Edition is a perfect combination of adventure, management, and cuteness that is addicting in the way all the best management sims are, but still brings a lot of originality to the genre. It’s relaxing and a must-play on Switch for any wholesome gamers.

    Slime Rancher: Plortable Edition is a title that doesn’t do the game justice. This isn’t a stripped-back Nokia N-Gage version of a grand game, this is the real deal, and it’s blinkin’ marvellous. Farming Slimes, exploring the world, getting frustrated at the price of Crystal Plorts never going up, it’s a dense and wondrous experience. Having to travel so much on foot stops it from achieving extreme greatness, but it’s not enough to stop us giving this a hearty recommendation.

    I really like this port, it is now portable, meaning you can play it everywhere you go, it runs smoothly and is really fun! The framerateI really like this port, it is now portable, meaning you can play it everywhere you go, it runs smoothly and is really fun! The framerate quickly goes down once you reach a certain amount of slimes on your ranch, which kind of makes the game annoying, but I love it!

    The slimes are adorable, it is a open world game, you exploit cute creatures for monetary gains, awesome.    … Expand

    The framerate really begins to struggle once your farm reaches a certain size, though. If you can play it on another platform, I recommend doing that; but I still had a fantastic time with it on Switch.

    Sounds design is wonderful, music is super-cool, and there whole experience is very relaxing. And it's cute as hell.    … Expand

    Overall I, of course, love this game! it's the whole reason I've paid for it twice now lol, but the biggest complaint I have that I've seen no one else mention is that slimes will randomly disappear, specifically puddle and fire slimes do this and there is no rhyme or reason for it; As you can imagine this is extremely irritating since then I have to then go back out to grab more when I shouldn't have to do that in the first place. I haven't seen any other mention of this when I've tried to look into it and I can only hope this is some fluke bug that gets fixed eventually but for now it just makes me upset since this keeps happening, I've never had this problem on PC so I would assume this is a Switch specific issue.    … Expand
