10 Messed Up Nintendo Switch Games You Won't Believe Exist

Another game which boasts neither panic-inducing imagery nor psychological torment, Manual Samuel still totally deserves its spot on this list.

A stuck-up, spoiled brat, Samuel makes a deal with Death himself following his own demise in a rather brutal accident.

With Samuel's chance to reclaim his mortality dependent on merely surviving a full day, his life is literally in the player's hands.

This is where things get complicated...

Anyone who has played the brilliant Octodad will be instantly familiar with the control ideology and gameplay loop in Manual Samuel.

Using buttons, sticks, and even motions to manually control Samuel's (see?) every move from blinking, breathing, walking, straightening his spine and everything in between, just getting our boy out of bed and into the shower is a herculean test of the player's ability to multitask.

The game's dark tone, its cartoony yet shockingly macabre visuals, and the dry, quintessentially British humour all add up to an absolutely bizarre experience.

Controlling Samuel's limp form as he struggles to survive an average day, his body contorting into inhuman shapes which even the Silent Hill series would be proud of, is as silly as it is disgusting, and makes for a superb addition to the Switch's dark gaming underworld.
