In the vibrant world of video games, 2021 saw a plethora of exciting indie titles grace the Nintendo eShop. From reverse horror games to physics-based golf parodies, there was something for every gaming enthusiast.
One such game that stood out was Carrion, a unique reverse horror experience where players control an amorphous creature, stalking and consuming those who imprisoned it to spread fear and panic.
Another noteworthy title was Suzerain, a text-based strategy-political simulation that won the German Computer Game Prize for Best Expert Game and Audience Award in 2021. Although comprehensive lists of all indie releases on the Nintendo eShop in 2021 were not easily found, Suzerain certainly made a significant impact.
Streets of Rage 4, a side-scrolling beat-'em-up, also found its way onto the Nintendo eShop. The game features a new generation of fighters teaming up to take down a crime empire.
Spiritfarer, an indie game about building a boat to explore the world, befriend and care for spirits, and guide them across mystical seas before releasing them to their afterlife, was another popular choice.
