After a busy month for indies in January, we’ve got another load of great looking indie games coming in February. So here’s the best indie games coming to Switch in February 2020!

Wide Ocean Big Jacket- Feb 4th

Developers: Turnfollow

Price: $7.99

Usually video games are full of guns, swords and explosions. Wide Ocean Big Jacket is a little different. It’s a short, narrative driven game about a weekend camping trip. Play as four very down-to-Earth characters and basically just enjoy the weekend. Cook hotdogs, go for strolls along the beach and get to know the inner thoughts of these wonderfully normal video game characters.

Want to talk to the devs about the game? Come join us on Wednesday 4th February at 18.00 GMT on the SIF Discord server for an AMA.

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics- Feb 4th

Developers: BonusXP

Price: $19.99

Age of Resistance might not be for everyone but if you’re a fan of the Netflix series and like the old Final Fantasy Tactics games, it might be for you. There’s 50 tactic battles to fight your way through and a number of strange fantasy characters to customise. Like I said, it might not be for everyone but for The Dark Crystal fans it might be an interesting indie.

7th Sector- Feb 5th

Developers: Sometimes You

Price: $19.99

A dark and mysterious 2D puzzle game that’s based in a cyberpunk world. Play as numerous different characters and make decisions that influence the outcome of the game. 7th Sector looks like it’s been heavily influenced by Inside and Limbo. So if you’re a fan of those games you might want to check it out.

Knights and Bikes- Feb 6th

Developers: Foam Sword Games

Price: $19.99

Remember those days of your youth when you’d go out on your bikes with your friends and have wild adventures? Well, Foam Sword Games remembers. Knights and Bikes is the story of Nessa and Develza, as they explore an ancient island on the search for answers. The game looks gorgeous and has a paper craft-like art style to it. If you’re into fun, charming games with a bit of a mystery to them, then check out Knights and Bikes.

Underhero- Feb 13th

Developers: Paper Castle Games

Price: $16.99

You’re a faceless follower of evil leader Mr. Stitches and you were tasked with slowing down the the hero of the land. However, you were a little too successful and have accidentally taken his place- great.

Underhero is a side scrolling 2D platformer with RPG elements. Combat is time-based and the art style is cartoony pixel art. That may sound like a lot of different genres, however, I saw Jim Sterling play this game about a year ago, and I’ve been waiting ever since for the Switch version.

Ciel Fledge: A Daughter Raising Simulator- Feb 21st

Publishers: PQube

Price: $19.99

The wave of strange but amazing simulators is rushing past this month with PQube’s Ciel Feldge: A Daughter Raising Simulator. Based in 3716, the human race is put at risk by deadly aliens.

You play as a parent raising an adopted daughter in this dystopian world. Run the aspects of her life, send her on expeditions around the world, get her a part time job and raise her to be the person you want to her to be. It’s an unusual premise for a game but if you like management sims it might be different enough to peak your interest.

Ganbare Super Strikers- February

For fans of Football, Tactics and Glory, there’s another tactical football game coming to the Switch this month. Ganbare Super Strikers is an innovative mix between Tactical RPG and Soccer. Win matches to level up and earn new equipment that will allow you to learn special abilities, boost your players’ stats or protect yourself against altered status effects, such as Sleep, Silence or Poison.

The gameplay looks fun and not too serious and the anime-like art style makes the game appealing to me. It reminds me of a mix between Fifa Street and a turn based strategy game. No confirmed release date yet, but Switch publishers Ratalaika Games have said it is coming this month!

These were the best indie games coming to the Switch in February 2020. Which will you be picking up? Let us know on Twitter or by going to the SIF Discord server.
