Syberia
The first Syberia game was released back in 2002, with the latest entry from Microids launching earlier this year. Though the series isn’t exactly a major AAA hit, it does have a bit of a cult following with its gripping narrative and story.
Syberia follows the story of Kate Walker, an American lawyer who is one day tasked with investigating a French village to complete the takeover of a factory. However, the job isn’t as easy as it appears to be, and Kate is soon forced to track down the factory owner’s brother to finalize the deal. Her job soon takes her across Russia, and we learn about the mythical land of Syberia, where the last mammoths on Earth are rumored to live.
Syberia is a narrative-driven adventure game, meaning that players will be going through a relatively linear story while solving environmental puzzles and other logic obstacles to progress. With the way the game is structured, it might just be a great fit for Nintendo’s hybrid console.
