If you’re looking for a last-minute gift for the Nintendo Switch user in your life, we have a little something for everyone. This list specifically has stuff that may go under your radar. Here are 5 great gifts on Nintendo Switch for you to check out for that special someone or family member.

Haven Park

For family audiences, or for someone who wants something a little more lowkey, Haven Park is a fantastic option. You play as a young bird who takes over for his grandmother running the titular Haven Park. It is a great mixture of exploration, park building, meeting the needs of park residents, and fun little side quests. It may not be a very long game, but it is a really enjoyable one.

The Caligula Effect 2

For RPG fans, or for someone who wants a story-driven narrative that is a little bit different, The Caligula Effect 2 will scratch a great itch. You play as a male or female protagonist, who teams up with people who are trying to escape a virtual world that aims to help them forget their regrets. The story tackles topics such as facing your mistakes, growing from adversity, and even gender identity and sexuality. The Caligula Effect 2 sports a great story, involved RPG mechanics, and tons of side content.

Kitaria Fables

For the people in your life that love farming sims, but want to enjoy some action as well, I’d highly recommend Kitaria Fables. Kitaria Fables blends action RPG gameplay where you can essentially pick your own class and play how you want, with farming and life sim mechanics. It also has local co-op and is great for kids or adults.

KeyWe

Are you looking for the next fun party game to spice things up with a friend, spouse, child, or loved one? KeyWe is a great option! You play as a Kiwi bird (or two) who begin working for an Australian Postal Service outpost. There are lots of clever mini-games and cooperation challenges, along with new mechanics as the seasons change! This is a perfect experience for friends and family, though it is only 2-player if memory serves, so you might have to swap in and out.

Murder Mystery Machine

To round off our list, I decided to pick something a little unorthodox. If you’re looking for something to really test your brain or scratch the “True Crime” itch, then Murder Mystery Machine will do the job. Without spoiling the plot, you play a rookie detective who begins to take on various cases with her veteran partner. There is more to the cases than meets the eye though, they’re connected in some interesting ways. Mystery fans can’t go wrong with Murder Mystery Machine.

There you have it folks, 5 great gifts for Nintendo Switch players that may have slipped under your radar. Whether you’re looking for something last-minute, or you wanna spend a Nintendo eShop gift card, these games will fit all sorts of players and niche types.
