Samsara Deluxe

Today, Marker announced that they are bringing Samsara Deluxe to the Nintendo Switch. It will be released on December 31st in Europe and January 10th in North America, and will cost 9.99€ / £7.99 / $9.99. This version of the game offers 24 additional puzzles set in an ethereal environment, with a new elevator block type. It also offers full touchscreen support.

Here’s a trailer, some details, and some screenshots:

Players will embark on a voyage of discovery and awakening with Zee and a mysterious shadow – through light and dark, across the upside-down and the right side-up to their eventual freedom.

Samsara Deluxe is a beautiful, reflective puzzle game set in a world of echoes where players guide a child safely to the exit by dropping blocks of different shapes and properties into a world of two dimensions split by a pool. Simple mechanics conceal complex interactions involving gravity, balance, redirection and teleportation, with a twist: everything added in the upside down world below reflects in the world above.

Samsara Deluxe for Switch features over 100 levels across 7 hand-detailed realms, each with hidden “Easter Eggs” to uncover, and is hand-crafted by a team of experienced developers in New Zealand.

Video games have transformed you into the Mayor, the Manager and the President of… everything, basically, from factories to YouTube stars to game development studios and even starship corporations. But now it’s time for a true challenge: keeping a herd of sheep entertained, happy and healthy.

That’s precisely what you need to do in Clouds & Sheep 2, coming to Nintendo Switch™ on December 21st. Feed your sheep, toss them around, buy them trampolines, put them in funny hats, regularly shear them and – at all times – keep an eye on your various resources to manage your ever-growing herd. But beware, if you don’t care for them well enough, some of your sheep might become clouds…

The cute sheep are finally on the loose again! Solve countless quests to fulfil your woolly friends’ needs. Plant grass, flowers, trees and shear your animals’ different-coloured wool to stock up your resources. Collect happy stars, harvest wood and flower petals, and use your resources to provide your flock with food, accessories, toys and more. Control the clouds and make it rain to ensure your sheep never run out of fresh water to drink. If your sheep feel happy and content, they’ll even bring tiny lambs into the world.
