Push Square

PlayStation Universe
By John-Paul JonesThough Lil Gator Game isn't especially long, it leaves an indelible mark on you, like a high-five with a loved one that leaves your hand with a pleasant soreness to remind you of the fact. Lil Gator is restorative in a way that many games just aren't - it slowly strips away your layers of resistance until you fall in love with its straightforward, though greatly satisfying adventure platform beats. Lil Gator Game is unreservedly pure, distilled happiness and innocence all in one glorious concoction and couldn't we all do with a bit more of that these days?
Starbit
By João DiasLil Gator Game makes use of a risk-free experience to deliver its impeccable writing and storytelling, sending the player back and forth on quests that demonstrate the value of childhood imagination and friendship. Hugging its players with a gorgeous presentation, accessible gameplay, and unforgettable message, Lil Gator Game more than deserves its place on everyone’s Nintendo Switch.

By Jordan LoadesThis game is primarily geared to a younger audience, but even still if this type of relaxed experience suits you, I hope you accept the invitation to relive your childhood. And to parents introducing their kids to The Legend of Zelda, putting Lil Gator Game on ahead of Breath of the Wild might be a magical thing to see.
