Despite developer The Bearded Ladies' successes in world-building, tactics, and stealth gameplay, it has allowed a huge graphical downgrade on Switch. The Switch version, regrettably, is another story entirely. At the same time, it enjoys the staff and resources needed to create high production values and up-to-date visual assets-at least on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Sitting snugly in the middle space between big-time "AAA" releases and small-scale independent titles, it's a modest, mid-range turn-based tactical experience that, not needing to sell five million units to break even, can afford to be experimental and weird.

The industry needs more games like Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden.
