Set on a remote island, Windbound 's graphics and environments are its best selling points, but how does the gameplay fare? Windbound is a survival game and a pretty unforgiving one at that. This mostly comes down to the main protagonist's insatiable appetite and the roguelike elements introduced on certain difficult settings. Similar to Breath of the Wild , Windbound 's minimalist plot doesn't hold the player's hand, although it does give out objectives per chapter.
A stylized open world in disrepair full of puzzles and baddies? A quiet and mysterious beginning without much explanation?
A run-in with a carnivorous plant that eats your arm and introduces you to a mechanical appendage that comes to define most of the gameplay? Okay, maybe that part is unique to Hob. This ten-hour adventure from Panic Button, the developers who have brought both Skyrim and Wolfenstein 2 to the Nintendo Switch, is both engaging and challenging.
Sure, it may not be as long, epic, or expansive as Breath of the Wild , but it is a world of shaded art styles and puzzles that may just help fill the Link-shaped void. If you yearn for mind games while traversing the trees, why not rip off your arm and get to exploring a mystery land as a short hooded cyborg? Have you ever wanted to work as a shopkeeper by day, then spend your nights as a vigilante treasure hunter who scours dungeons with nothing but your sword and courageous spirit?
Well, that's exactly what you've signed up for when you start this old-school dungeon crawler from Digital Sun. Sure, this game is more akin to the 2-D Zelda games of old than Breath Of The Wild , but it's hard not to obsess over the plucky protagonist Will and his quest to find true adventure. This title is hard, creative, and tells a heartwarming story about wholehearted ambition.
There may not be prophecies or princesses involved, but the swordplay and story should help with Breath of the Wild withdrawals. Additionally, now is the perfect time for players to try it out if they haven't already, as it will get them in the mood for the next season of Netflix's The Witcher, which is due to release next year.
For anyone who is a fan of Breath of the Wild' s expansive world, fantasy creatures, and intriguing storyline, The Witcher 3 is a great game to play. He has been cursed with old age by a witch with entitlement issues and must set out on an adventure to clean some gems and get his hotter, younger body back into circulation. This journey is actually quite fun, and it entails quite a lot of platform jumping, shield bashing, and boss outsmarting.
The puzzles may be in short supply, and nothing about this experience is groundbreaking, but it is a lighthearted adventure with no shortage of fun or unique level design. And hey, Galad wears green and has a shield. There's never been a better time to hop into the shoes or paws of the Japanese Sun Goddess Amaterasu and "brush up" on some 3D action-adventure. This Nintendo Switch port of Capcom 's classic is definitively the best version of the game, and the pairing of the white wolf and black brush has never been more fun.
At first glance, Okami may feel like it can be beaten surprisingly fast. But it soon becomes very clear that this is a long and epic adventure with both a winding narrative and a surprisingly expansive world. Playing as a divine wolf painting her way through a stylish take on Japan may not seem like a solid comparison to Breath of the Wild , but once fans start playing it, it's hard to find anything to complain about.
A Short Hike might not initially seem like the most obvious selection for games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild , largely due to its short length, far smaller world, and lack of combat. This game follows a bird as she travels up a park trail towards its peak where she hopes to get reception for her phone.
The process of getting there is left at the player's discretion. This freedom is what links A Short Hike to Breath of the Wild , and both games are very much about the journey and not the destination. People who enjoy diving into Hyrule just for the sake of exploration and traversal will probably love A Short Hike.
Horizon Zero Dawn takes players and drops them into a post-apocalyptic Earth where humans seemed to have forgotten to save their progress at about a. The flora and fauna apparently missed the memo, however, as humans must face off against giant mechanical beasts that are just out and about, and the world bears more than a few scars from humanity's fall from dominance.

BotW does away with that. Added to the ease of vertical escape is the fact that you can fast-travel whenever and wherever you want, even mid-battle. This means the player is never truly lost or stuck. The simple rule is: to prepare for potentially limitless edge cases, make your escape mechanics limitless to match. Even more fantastically, all of this subtle teasing is there just as a suggestion.
Is it a failure of the game design that Burgess never discovered what to do with Korok seeds? BotW is designed around edge cases at a fundamental level. If one person wants to kill a monster using a bomb attached to a balloon, fanned in the right direction with a giant leaf, they can. The combination of free will, abundant tools and a robust physical rule set allows you to achieve things in idiosyncratic ways.
The system is the story. There are hundreds of examples of how level design influences and manipulates player choice in BotW. In Breath of the Wild, the job of the designers is not to hold your hand and guide you around a set path.
