Logic Puzzle Game “Is This Seat Taken?” Arriving on Nintendo Switch

Okay, so here I am rambling on about this new game — “Is This Seat Taken?” It’s a puzzler coming to the Nintendo Switch, and yeah, I’m kinda excited. Wholesome Games Presents and Poti Poti are behind it, and they’ve finally told us when it’s hitting the eShop. Hint: It’s in August 2025.

Okay, so, there’s this character, Nat. They’re trying to find themselves, as one does, right? Imagine seeing someone just like you on screen and getting all those existential feels. Next thing, bam! They’re off globetrotting because…why not?

Here’s the deal: You’re organizing people. Sounds simple? Maybe — or maybe not. It’s kind of like real-life seating drama where no one can just sit next to anybody. Crowded buses, weddings, taxis — it’s all about being the ultimate seating matchmaker. Ever been on a bus trying to sleep, but someone’s blasting music right next to you? Total mood killer. Anyway, you’ve got to suss out who wants to sit where without causing a mini-war.

The quirky peeps you meet? They’re everything from relatable to out-of-this-world oddballs. It’s like people-watching but with the bonus of solving puzzles. No rush, though — there are no timers here. Thank goodness, right? Just figuring out where everyone fits.

Oh, and the more you play, the cooler the scenarios get. From basic bus trips to full-on banquets.

There’s a trailer out there somewhere, which might be worth a peek if you’re curious. Honestly, I just like the idea of a game that doesn’t make me sweat bullets with countdowns and high scores. It’s like chill self-discovery and puzzle-solving rolled into one. So, there you have it — a game that’s as much about the journey as it is about where everyone sits.
