Aloof arrives on Switch today

Developer ButtonX and publisher RedDeerGames have announced that puzzle battler Aloof is arriving on Switch today. Check out the launch trailer along with an overview below the break.

Aloof was initially announced back in July of this year without an exact release date. In case you missed that original coverage, here is an overview for the game:

Aloof is a cute puzzle-battler with adorable animals in which you defend your small islands.

The game is perfect for classic Tetris lovers and fans of Puyo Puyo Tetris or Super Puzzle Fighter Turbo II.

Challenging Experience

Embark on a marvelous adventure in the colorful world of Aloof, where challenging levels with multiple win conditions await you.

Play as a cute brave bunny and face the opponent to protect your little islands.

Enjoy beautiful and peaceful piano music while fighting your enemy. Play solo or with your friends in the local co-op mode.

Defeat Your Opponents

Summon small islands and defend them against your opponent. Move pieces left, right, down and up. Keep in mind that pieces don’t descend by themselves, so take your time to think and move fast to repel an opponent’s attack successfully!

Build Amazing Combos

If you’re not satisfied with the pieces in your field, you can just flush them away by holding the flush button.

You can switch between 2 fields so that you don’t need to mess up your amazing combo if something else needs to be done first.

Solo or Couch Co-op Campaign

Experience a challenging adventure in the unique world of Aloof solo or with your friends and family in local co-op mode!

Compete with your loved ones in 1v1 or 2v2 matches in the co-op campaign with puzzle levels, matches versus AI, rescue missions and bosses!
