    Being an 80s kid my brother and I fell in love with this game instantly. We spent a lot of hours in this when it was in alpha/beta testing on PC. Each time they released new content we would dive back in and love this game even more!
    I don't have much time for the PC anymore since the 2nd child so I feel this could be a good investment due to the switches portability.. Can always have a sneaky play while I'm rocking the little one to sleep lol 😂

    Possibly my earliest childhood memory is from the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids ride/exhibit on a trip to Universal Studios in 1995. I was obsessed with bugs and watched the movie regularly when I was a kid because of how fascinating I thought the idea of being that small was. Growing up I always wanted a game that captured the experience of being shrunk down to the size of a bug. There have been brief moments in games or entire games that came kind of close like the ant hill in MediEvil, the A Bug’s Life game on PS1, the Army Men: Sarge’s Heroes series, It Takes Two, and Terraria always made me feel like I was exploring an ant farm (I may be the only one who feels that way 🤷‍♂️ ). I’ve always felt like shrinking the player down to that size would make for a really interesting game and it’s always baffled me why it’s so underutilized. When this and Smalland were announced I finally felt justified for feeling that way. I feel like I’ve been preparing for this game my whole life and I’m so happy it’s finally on consoles. I’m downloading it on my PS5 right now.
    If any developers happen to see this, thank you for making my childhood dream come true.

    I am absolutely addicted to this game. It's so fun and plays excellent on the switch, especially in handheld. The perfect "on the go" game. The playgrounds mode is intuitive and grants you the ability to do SO MUCH stuff. It's incredible. $32 was a steal for me. I also ordered the physical from Limited Run.....MAYBE I will try for the collector's edition.... It is a bit of an eclectic collection.

    Blown away at this gem of a game. So happy to play this and pre-order the Limited Run physical edition which is still up as of this comment. Amazing game! 😊

    another greate game from Obsidian and it's now available on Switch, clearly a game to buy!!! and with the perk of taking us back to the early 90's with the Shrunk the kids vibe. thanks for the review
