The studio No Gravity Games spoils Nintendo gamers for the holidays. Since the December 12the publisher offers a series of 10 games offered on theNintendo Switch eShopat a rate of one game per day until December 19. And that’s not all: on the last day, there are not one, but three titles which will be free. An operation nicknamed the Switchmas Giveaway.
But there is a catch. To receive each new game, you must having downloaded the one from the day before and keep it in your library. If you miss a day, you will need to purchase the missed game (at a discount) to continue.
How to unlock the first free game
To enter the program you must have at least a game published by No Gravity Games. If this is not the case, a simple trick allows you to get around the rule: simply register for the official newsletter from the studio via their site. In exchange, you will receive a free title from their catalog, which will allow you to be eligible for the rest of the promotion. “Just go to the official No Gravity Games website and sign up for the newsletter to receive a free game.”
This game then becomes your entry ticket. Then, every day at midnight (Pacific Time), a new game becomes available for free, provided you obtained the previous day’s game. You have until 11:59 p.m. to claim it on the Nintendo eShop.
Confirmed titles (and those to watch)
The first game offered on December 12 was Bullets & BrainsA arcade shoot’em up in 3D where the player faces waves of undead. This title sets the tone: independent games, often nervous and atypical.
The trailer for Switchmas Giveaway hints at other potential titles, although not officially confirmed:
- Wreckin’ Ball Adventure
- Creepy Tale
- Alder’s Blood
- Destropolis
But nothing has been confirmed by No Gravity Games for these. We will therefore have to remain attentive day after day.
A good plan provided you are rigorous
This operation is attractive for its generosity, but it requires vigilance. Each day missed requires a paid catch-up, even if the price remains very reduced. But with a little discipline, you can walk away with ten 100% free Switch games.
For regular players or curious people on a small budget, this series is an excellent way to discover indie gems while expanding your library.
With the holidays, Nintendo and its partners are multiplying the surprises. And this Switchmas Giveaway proves that you can still have fun without spending a cent… as long as you’re on time.
