    This game is an awesome throwback to the classic top down style action RPG's from the 90's. Soundtrack is stellar and the story is amazing. This is one of the most slept on Indie games that came out on the PS4 (Digital Only). The fact they made the game a physical buy for the Switch is a must buy for any avid gamer to have in his collection.

    Same great game but now physically on the Switch, what else is there to say? This was an amazing indie title the first time it came out and it still is great today. Fun different combat, great music, and beautiful visuals.

    Transistor looks as good as it sounds and plays as good as it looks. It isn’t terribly long, but its worth experiencing for the price of admission, and the included booklet serves to enhance that experience.

    This game was released a couple of years ago On pc and now it’s on the switch! It looks great with slick looks to it and grabs your attention real quick. Controls feel good and the story is radical so it was right up my alley. I also love that it came with a booklet(that’s rare) with art and info. For 35 bucks it was just another cool edition to my hard case collection.

    If you played Bastion and if you liked it, then Transistor is for you, the art style is really good, the music also good, and the gameplay mechanics are entertaining, I've played it digitally on PS4 before but I wanted the physical version and was able to get it for switch, not sure if the physical version is on PS4, but it is ok to have it on swith at least.

    The game is pretty fun overall, it plays like a strategy game like fire emblem where you gotta keep track of your movement but at the same time it’s fast paced. The soundtrack is amazing and it sets the mood for the atmosphere, definitely recommend using headphones to get more immersed.

    Anyone who loved Bastion is going to adore Transistor. The storyline is far more compelling and the combat feels like a natural extension of it. Transistor gives you faster and slower-paced ways to play, and that means it’s going to have a broader appeal.
