    Best game on the switch! So much fun, and funny. Ohh, and you’ll say the F word quite a lot! In a good way... you’ll understand the when you have played it.

    This is my goto game on Switch. Great game, easy to pick up, play a few levels and then continue another day. Love the speed, design, controls.

    This game is super fun! If you like solving puzzles and "outwitting" the game, so to speak (e.g., notice suspicious tiles, sequence break, etc.) Wunderling will hit the spot! Your platforming skills will also be put to work here, although this is an auto-runner, and not a traditional platformer. I generally find auto-runners to be repellent, but in this case it is not a lazy designThis game is super fun! If you like solving puzzles and "outwitting" the game, so to speak (e.g., notice suspicious tiles, sequence break, etc.) Wunderling will hit the spot! Your platforming skills will also be put to work here, although this is an auto-runner, and not a traditional platformer. I generally find auto-runners to be repellent, but in this case it is not a lazy design choice, but a very deliberate component of the puzzles and level design.

    If you just want to get through the levels, this is a pretty easy game. Then again, if you play it that way, I think you are missing the point. This is a game that demands you search all of the hidden nooks and crannies until there is nowhere left for anything to hide. If you play it THAT way, Wunderling can be quite tricky at times and even occasionally frustrating. However, frustration never lasts for long, and there is often a sense of "I finally did it! Maybe I should pack it up for now... well, maybe just *one more* level..."    … Expand

    Wunderling is a charming and clever little puzzle-platformer with delightfully colourful graphics, a cast of cute characters, and excellent level design. If you’re a fan of the genre, don’t let this one pass you by.

    All in all, Wunderling was as fun and cute as I would have hoped. The simple controls are a welcome change from the standard side-scrolling platformer. The level design is really spectacular as well, leaving me smiling many times when I finally figured out how to get to certain places. Somehow, the platformer genre continues to entertain me, and Wunderling does a great job of bringing something both fresh and tried and true.

    By removing the basic ability to turn direction whilst walking, Wunderling proves itself to be an incredibly addictive platformer that boasts excellent level design, brilliant writing, and adorable visuals. Its impressive accessibility means that almost anyone can pick it up, but it simultaneously remains challenging enough to keep you engaged for hours.
