Best Games of September 2018, According to Metacritic
4) Wandersong (Switch) – Metacritic Score: 87
Wandersong is certainly the game you’re least likely to recognize on this list, but it’s a puzzle platformer unlike anything you’ve seen before. The game sees you run through the world, using song to interact with the terrain and items to unlock secrets and solve puzzles.
You have a colored wheel that plays a certain musical tone when you aim the thumbstick in its direction. Then, as your character sings certain notes, you can move platforms and give life to objects that help you get to the next part of the world. It’s a unique experience that’s perfect on the Switch. The charming world is also made from paper cutouts, so you’ll see things like paper snowflakes pass you in snowy levels, or odd looking cacti in desert areas. The characters and dialogue also add heart to the world, making Wandersong more than a platformer with interesting mechanics.
