SwapQuest Review - Around the World One Tile at a Time

In SwapQuest, you play as Prince Wilbert or Princess Wilma to find the holy sword Aventuril in order to defend the kingdom from the evil Horde that has invaded the land. You have to swap the tiles to build a road for the prince/princess. Collect gems, fight monsters, buy or find equipment, avoid traps, but above all don’t get caught by the horde at the bottom of the screen. The game features an epic journey through over a dozen different areas, each with their own unique enemies, special tiles and graphics. A branching path through the game world, two playable characters each with their own strengths, and a customizable character development allow for multiple playthroughs.

“Playing SwapQuest with a friend feels great, as you can mix and match different character classes and try to find abilities that work even better together. One player, for example, could play as a Noble and turn an enemy into a treasure chest, the other could then choose the Rogue and open it with his Lockpick ability from afar.” – Constantin Graf, creator of SwapQuest

The developer has clearly put a lot of love into the game. While the story is a bit generic, the game is translated into 5 languages. Being a non-native English…

SwapQuest came to Vita a couple of weeks ago, courtesy of Rebusmind, a German indie developer. When I saw the announcement video (below), I was positively excited. It looked like a really cool mechanic, and one that hadn’t been explored before.

However, a couple of levels into the game, it’s not really grabbing me yet. It just feels a little sluggish to me, which is odd considering the automated…

“SwapQuest” coming to Vita in early 2016!

Another glorious day for Vita, as a new game gets announced! This time, it’s the turn of “SwapQuest”. Now, before you go all ape on it because it’s a port of a mobile game, let me tell you… it’s a port of an award-winning mobile game. Not all mobile games are bad, my friend. Only the bad ones.

Here’s a description of the game:
