"EQQO on Switch isn&s;t a good experience. The narrator and soundtrack are great, but this kind of fascination is missing from the rest of the game. Controls aren&s;t intuitive at all and many technical issues cause a lot of frustration. …"

"A fairly uninspired puzzle game with awkward controls, the concept of Eqqo is never truly delivered. There are some emotional moments and beautiful environments, but it wasn&s;t enough to keep me interested in the dull gameplay"
