Bake ’n Switch

Collect pieces of dough, throw them around and bake them in an oven as fast as possible.

Each level in “Bake ’n Switch” is built around an oven, which needs to be filled with delicious dough. Small batches of dough regularly spawn in certain areas on the map. They casually walk around until you grab them and throw them around. If two pieces of dough collide, they instantly form a single, bigger dough. The bigger your dough gets, the more points you get for baking it in the oven.

The concept of “Bake ’n Switch” is very simple. However, it quickly gets hectic, especially in later levels where you really need to work together to get the best rankings. The game also includes a competitive mode. The rules mostly stay the same, but whoever throws the dough into the oven, now gets all the points. This small change turns “Bake ’n Switch” into a manic battle for little pieces of dough.

If you like hectic coop games like “Overcooked” and “Moving Out”, you should probably add “Bake ’n Switch” to your list. In terms of gameplay mechanics it doesn’t come quite close to the quality of similar titles, but it’s a nice party game with a chaming theme and adorable characters.

Why you should play it:

• The main concept is very simple, so it’s easy to learn how to play.
• Includes 100 levels/arenas and a lot of characters/costumes to choose from.
• The visuals are cute and the gameplay feels comfortable.

Please note: A PS4 port is in development, but there’s no release date yet.
