Voez addresses this by being handheld only, but Little Inferno allows you to use the Joy-Con in a similar manner to a Wii remote – the paddle being used to aim, pull, and drag away to your heart’s content. Little Inferno also has a pretty memorable soundtrack, which is also included from the title screen to enjoy if you so desire.Ī lot was made of the Switch’s ability to effortlessly transition from either docked or undocked gameplay but not much was made of the fact that it has a multi-capacitive touch screen, nor how games which featured a touch screen (like Little Inferno does) would play when docked. As noted above, it really suits the style of the game here. All of the items work well together, and many have their own reactions and effects when ignited (which you can take some sort of morbid gratification from). The game features that typical Tomorrow Corporation look, and if you have played World of Goo or Human Resource Machine then you’ll be more than familiar here. Eventually, you’ll trigger a sequence upon which the “game” will end, but this only serves to connect you to a final mission a scene where you’ll explore your surroundings a little and head to the developer’s building before setting off into the snow-set. She’ll require you to send her items, and in return will send you things back. You’ve bought this fireplace to keep yourself warm, and as you progress you’ll receive mail in addition to your parcels – including frequent communication from a neighbour. There is a story of sorts, in that it’s been snowing forever. That said, simply saving up and queuing them up might accidentally yield the same result – likely combined with a particularly explosive reaction! Some of these are obvious from their titles – which I’m not about to spoil here, but some will require some thought. There are around a hundred of these combos to unlock, and you are rewarded for your experimentation by gaining access to even more items to repeat the process. The hook is that there are seven catalogues to unlock, and in order to do so you’ll need to meet a number of combo requests by combining certain items. Having taken delivery of a new fireplace, you find yourself in possession of a mail-order catalogue, and upon ordering items and then chucking them straight on the fire – as you do – you are rewarded with coins in which to repeat the entire process. On the surface it’s not really a game, more a representation of an interactive piece of art or perhaps more a virtual pyromaniac experience in which your sole purpose is to burn things. It’s hard to describe what the appeal is with Little Inferno, or even what it is. However, for those of you that have never heard of it, you may be somewhat baffled by what is in essence a fireplace simulator.
Developed by Tomorrow Corporation and originally released on the Wii U in 2012, it’s received its fair share of acclaim for it’s simple, yet charming gameplay.
Little Inferno arrives on the Switch with a little bit of a reputation.
