Eastward - Nintendo Switch

Sometime in the near-future...

Welcome to the charming world of Eastward- population declining! Escape the tyrannical clutches of subterranean society and join the unlikely due, Sam and John, on an exciting adventure to the land above. In the near future, society is fast hurtling down the path of destruction. An unknown, toxic presence has spread and poisoned the air. Those who could escape flocked to villages underground to start a new life, and as new generations were forged, they soon forgot all memories of the blue skies above.

Eastward is a beautifully detailed and charming adventure game, from Shanghai-based indie developers, Pixpil.
