The Swapper
Release Date: May 30, 2013 Genres: Adventure, Action, IndieThe Swapper Review
This is a user submitted review by Broseybrose on Feb. 14, 2014, 9:32 a.m.
The Swapper was created by two University of Helsinki students Otto Hantula and Olli Harjola in their spare time. For such a "small" project, this game really has EVERYTHING going for it! Exploring the incredibly atmospheric space station Theseus, the set of The Swapper, is a treat. The excellent music and ambience have a great overall effect, as does the gorgeous and unique clay art visuals. The clone/swap mechanic makes for brain stimulating gameplay. The mechanic is executed brilliantly and the puzzles are smart. Story-wise, its a totally unique variation on the abandoned space station theme. Taken all together, I feel comfortable saying these guys made a masterpiece their first time out!
