    The Spectrum Retreat brings to the Nintendo Switch catalogue a first-person puzzle game that will bring the players into a mysterious setting which they will learn more and more about as they advance, thanks to its mechanics that get gradually introduced into the game. A very welcome additional to the Nintendo Switch library and one which will certainly resonate well with the players, especially with fans of puzzle games.
  2. The Spectrum Retreat combines the mysterious story with a puzzle system that focuses on thinking, trial and error. And that system allows us to look at it from a different side.

    The Spectrum Retreat could very well pass for one of Aperture Science's many testing chambers, and that's a big compliment for a sole independent developer's debut. With a creepy, intriguing narrative with multiple endings, the game doesn't do anything we haven't seen before, but still comes highly recommended for fans of the genre.
