And Roger, a mysterious point-and-click slice-of-life visual novel developed by TearyHand Studio and published by Kodansha Creators’ Lab, has officially launched on the Nintendo Switch.
The game, now available as a digital download via the Nintendo eShop, introduces Switch players to a deeply immersive narrative experience characterized by its unique storytelling and interactive approach.
The arrival of And Roger on Nintendo Switch expands the console’s diverse library of story-driven indie games.
Designed to be completed in about one hour, And Roger presents its narrative through the perspective of a young girl, engaging players in a world where the boundary between reality and imagination seems to blur.
The structure of the title allows for thought-provoking gameplay while remaining accessible for those looking for a concise yet impactful narrative.
According to the official Nintendo eShop listing, And Roger begins with a seemingly ordinary morning.
The protagonist, a young girl, wakes up expecting to find her father preparing for work, only to discover a stranger sleeping on the living room couch.
This man, unfamiliar to her, speaks in riddles and insists she take her medicine.
Not only is her father missing, but the identity and intentions of the stranger deepen the game’s intrigue.
As the girl’s confusion grows, she is compelled to flee her own home, embarking on a journey that places the player directly in her shoes.
Each scene unfolds with an undercurrent of unease, encouraging players to question what is real and what may be a product of the protagonist’s imagination.
With a story told over three chapters, And Roger invites players to walk alongside the young heroine as she navigates a twisted and unpredictable path in search of answers.
The game’s short runtime makes it an excellent choice for players interested in bite-sized yet emotionally resonant stories.
The immersive visual novel format leverages point-and-click mechanics to guide the experience, ensuring accessibility and engagement throughout.
The launch trailer—now available for viewing—offers a glimpse into the game’s atmospheric presentation and evocative soundtrack, underscoring its mysterious tone.
By focusing on themes of uncertainty and personal discovery, And Roger solidifies TearyHand Studio’s reputation for narrative innovation within the indie game sphere.
