If you have a Nintendo Switch gaming console and are looking for interesting games, here are some options for you.

1. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an action adventure game in which the player has to explore and travel across fields, through forests, and to mountain peaks to discover the kingdom of Hyrule. It features over 100 Shrines of Trials that are spread over the landscape. Each shrine offers challenges and puzzles allowing players to approach problems in different ways rather than trying to find a single solution.

In the game Mario collects bodysuit power ups that grant him special abilities, such as throwing fireballs, a boomerang, or a spinning raccoon tail. While Mario explores the islands to retrieve Cat Shines, Bowser Jr uses his paintbrush to attack enemies.
