The fact that a game on Giga Games receives the coveted top rating of 10/10 is a major exception. Outer Wilds did just that in 2019 and is finally coming to Nintendo Switch this year.

And the supernova greets you every day. In Outer Wilds you are trapped in a time warp and always have 22 minutes to discover the secrets of your solar system. Then the sun explodes and you have to start your exploration from the beginning – but keep all your memories.

This brilliant concept results in one of the best games of the past few years, which is still considered an insider tip rather than a must-buy. In our test you can read about what makes Outer Wilds so unique. And before there is any likelihood of confusion: No, Outer Wilds has nothing to do with the also very successful The Outer Worlds, which also appeared in 2019 and caused confusion at the time due to the very similar name.
