    The first two chapters are excellent - intriguing, moving and absorbing stories. The third chapter is mediocre and the fourth is a mixed bag, though an improvement over the previous chapter. The ideas and the atmosphere are very good. I wish the storytelling had maintained it's high quality throughout because this is the kind of game I really enjoy playing.

    A beautiful Journey through four episodes. Beautiful artwork, charming characters, a nice soundtrack, all the components are there for a relaxing and worthwhile game.

    Though I can’t tell if The Lion’s Song is any better on Switch than it is on PC or mobile, I can say that it’s a unique and brilliant narrative adventure that offers an artistic journey into the hearts and minds of creators amidst a singularly dynamic time in history.

    The Lion’s Song is a great point and click game with a focus in the story. With a nice visual that features a retro pixelated style. The gameplay on the TV it’s OK, but no support to the Touch Screen function is unacceptable, since the iOS version already has that function. Finally, The Lion’s Song does not please everyone, but those who like the genre will love the game.

    This is a charming little interactive story that warms the heart even if it doesn’t necessarily challenge the brain. If you like your games to be story driven with characters you’ll end up caring about, this is a must-have.
