The Switch EffectRichard Heaton Dec 20254.5/5It’s such a relaxing game at its core. You’re just digging a hole, collecting all the resources, upgrading stuff, and continuing the cycle over and over until the very end.

Life is XboxDec 202585/100A Game About Digging a Hole ended up being a cosy little surprise. The loop is simple but weirdly satisfying, the upgrades keep things moving, and the whole experience has a calm, almost meditative feel to it. It is a short game, but the budget price makes that completely fair. If you enjoy small, focused games you can relax with for an evening, this one is easy to enjoy.

Pure NintendoSophie HinerDec 20256.5/10A Game About Digging a Hole is exactly as it says. So, if you're looking for something a bit more engaging, I wouldn't recommend this game. However, if you're looking for a quick, satisfying, and easy game in which you can mindlessly dig, sell resources, and upgrade your tools, it's perfect.

SwitchabooPatrick WaringDec 20256/10I mean, it’s a game about digging a hole in your backyard and selling rocks. It shouldn’t have as many technical issues as it does and could maybe use a little pizazz in the design department but I’ll give it this: It never claimed to be anything else. If you’ve got a few bucks left over from a gift card or just want something virtual and inoffensive to distract yourself for a while at the Christmas gathering, this will certainly fill those gaps.
