Our take on the Jupiter & Mars: Definitive Edition

Jupiter & Mars is a short underwater adventure for the Nintendo Switch in which a dolphin and a whale explore a flooded future Earth and use a sonar-like pulse to solve environmental puzzles. It is a gentle, story-driven game built around atmosphere and marine life rather than combat or challenge. The Definitive Edition bundles the base game with its extra content on one cartridge. It suits players who want a calm, unusual few-hour experience, though its length and simple puzzles put it behind bigger adventure titles.
