The Nintendo Switch has two main selling points - its portability and its usefulness for cooperative games. With Death Squared on the way, it's another opportunity to rope in some other players and test some friendships.

Death Squared is a cooperative puzzler in which a colourful crew of robots escapes a questionable and dangerous science facility. Seriously, it'd really get a frowny face in its health and safety inspection. Each of your players needs to guide their coloured robot to a specific goal, but that's easier said than done.

The whole point of the game is to work together with your companions to figure out puzzles and get everyone out of there alive. You'll probably fail plenty of times, have some arguments that'll make all of your suppressed Monopoly memories rush back, and then get back to it.

Death Squared is built for up to four players and is currently out on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. However, the Switch version will be touching down in Q2 of 2017, so we'll keep you updated.
