Mar 14, 2022Tense, scary, absorbing. Excellent loop never tires, the longer you live the higher the stakes.
Very well balanced, great combat. Warning contains considerable jump scares! -
Aug 29, 2021I just have to say that this is a really fun game. At first i was unsure about the combat until i figured the trick to it. I can say the developers really put in good effort for the Switch port. Looks great, Sounds great and most of all plays great. Good job Nintendo/Firespaite!!!

May 21, 2020The Persistence is a unique and unsettling sci-fi horror roguelite that does an excellent job of transferring its tense atmosphere and absorbing gameplay loops from its original VR form to the Nintendo Switch. There are tons of weapons and toys to tool around with as you run the gauntlet, the permanent aspects of the gameplay are refreshingly generous and survival mode and New Game+ provide a properly stiff challenge for those who prefer their roguelites to be tough as nails. Firesprite Games has done a fantastic job of porting the entire ghoulish affair over to Switch, with flawless performance in both docked and handheld modes; overall, this is another very strong addition to the console's ever-expanding collection of excellent roguelite experiences.
