    This game is an absolute must have on the Nintendo Switch. The music, art style, but also the gameplay is top notch! It has some rogue-like elements, but I would say it reminds me of a good topdown Zelda game, but more cute and lighter. I recommend it to anyone that loves well crafted 'indie' games!

    PS: It runs really smooth on the Switch in handheld and docked.

    I’ll start off by saying this game, The Swords Of Ditto is essentially a beefed up version of Ittle Dew 2 in every way. That’s NOT a negative statement by any means...if you’ve played the Ittle Dew games you’ll know how charming & engaging they are and this game has that vibe. I honestly can’t think of any other way to describe this game without comparing it to Ittle Dew becauseI’ll start off by saying this game, The Swords Of Ditto is essentially a beefed up version of Ittle Dew 2 in every way.

I honestly can’t think of any other way to describe this game without comparing it to Ittle Dew because EVERYTHING...from the art to the movement to the plot to the characters etc are obviously lifted from Ittle Dew. I’m actually assuming the main developer, creator or team made Ittle Dew 2 for or with Nicalis and then expanded exponentially for this game here. It’s isometric/top down view of a cartoon styled game world where you assume the role of ancestors of a family destined to defeat the evil witch that lords over the town etc. When you die at the start you skip forward in time and are told you are needed to take up arms with the sword of ditto and defeat the witch. It’s a fun melee/hack n slash focused game. Lots of weapons fun NPCs to interact with. Expand

    Smash pots, light torches, find secrets and open treasure chests, all in a procedurally built "rogue-lite" world that remakes itself after every era. [Issue #40 – July/August 2019, p. 27]

    As a Nintendo Switch title, The Swords of Ditto hits the mark of being a game you can play for five minutes or five hours and feels right at home in handheld mode. Aside from a mild fatigue from repetition near the end, occasional long load times between zones and the frustratingly designed Nemesis curse, everything about The Swords of Ditto: Mormo’s Curse comes together in one strongly designed package.

    The Swords Of Ditto: Mormo’s Curse a very fun RPG that’s well thought out and excellently put together. For RPG and Zelda fans, this is a must-have for a modern take on a retro theme.
