Finally, New Ways to Play The Swapper

NO MORE EXCUSES, PEOPLE.

The Swapper is coming to PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and Vita sometime in May, according to the PlayStation Blog. The Swapper is a kick ass puzzle game, and I'm not going to stop yelling about it.

So just play The Swapper, okay? Whether it's now or May, I don't care. Just do it.

I wonder if they changed some of the puzzles, I could see the later ones being infuriating with a controller as they require such quick movements.

It's a very good game, I'm not too proud to admit I had to look up the solution of a particularly puzzling...puzzle.

The Swapper is good but not as good at scoops makes it out to be. Don't go in expecting a miracle, but play it because its rad.

Do go in expecting a game narrative version of Moon and 2001, and doing it successfully delving into ideas of consciousness unbounded by the physical and the power of the unknown.

@cale: The ending is super good, but I wouldn't say that's what makes it good. The puzzles do that. So if you're not digging the puzzles, I guess it just didn't click.

@megabite10164: Doesn't time slow down while you are aiming or something like that? They could probably make that more pronounced, or add an additional level of slowing on another button if the precision was an issue.

I stopped playing around 3/4 of the way through and never found any incentive to go back to it. Maybe the ending is what makes it good? I enjoyed Rochard more than I did this, another game I stopped playing around 3/4 of the way through.

Woooo... Wait that seems like it would be hard to control with 2 joysticks. I remember there being several sections where you needed really accurate spawning and swapping.
