Ok as an FYI follow-up I have played a couple of hours of the Prodigy video game now.

It is repetitive but fun. I like that it’s a simple game to be honest because variety in games is cool. If everything was hardcore all the time it would be too stressful. This is something chill and not taxing. (I have been playing Jedi Survivor on PS otherwise and that is much harder in contrast). I mean it’s clear that this Prodigy game was designed for a younger audience and I don’t mind that. I thought it would go well on the Switch and I was right. It is a perfect game for that platform. I played some while I was in waiting rooms at the hospital. It is low stress but quite absorbing.

Idk if it is the switch version or if just generally the game looks low fidelity but it looks better on the smaller screen than my big TV to be honest.

My main annoyance is I have just learned (or rediscovered idk) that the Switch doesn’t do achievements. I am a trophy nut (completionist) and I can see they exist in like the PlayStation version, so it’s annoying they aren’t on the switch.

Voice acting is pretty cool. I like how they kept the banter between the characters. I have noticed that the subtitles aren’t always accurate to what is spoken (the meaning is correct but it’s not word for word) which bugs me a little bit. Like if they improv on the script then fix the script you know?

Anyway if you want a game you can duck in and out of with zero stress would recommend.
