It feels odd calling a point & click horror game adorable, but that’s what Bulb Boy is. Heartwarming moments are mixed with gross-out details without any friction. The surreal story has plenty of twists and turns, and the puzzles are enjoyable to work out. This little indie title is truly a gem in its own special way.

A small game, but worth your time. An audiovisual package that many games aim for but never reach, Bulb Boy is a fine example for great creative talent. It is a shame that the game hurts itself a little by being a little light on content. Founder | Editor-in-chief | Social Media Manager Gaming is a passion and I wanted to share my Xbox enthusiasm.

Bulb Boy is a wonderful addition to the Switch, especially if you’re looking for something a little more unusual.” While the range of gameplay types keeps Bulb Boy feeling fresh and never boring, it’s at its strongest when it’s a simple puzzle adventure.
