Hell Architect

Hell Architect, which first debuted last year, is now making the jump to Switch. We don’t have a concrete release date yet, but it’s looking like we’ll be seeing it around the fall.

Hell Architect has players taking on the role of a “hell manager” who is “tasked with developing the underworld in a way that would make Lucifer himself fall off his chair.” The experience is about “building and managing your own hell” – hardly surprising given the official title. Inspirations include Dungeon Keeper, Oxygen Not Included, and Prison Architect.
