Murder mystery deduction game The Forgotten City is surprisingly heading to the Nintendo Switch today thanks to a Cloud Version.

Released on PC, Xbox and PlayStation in July, the game sees you trapped in a mysterious underground city during the Roman Empire. On top of that, the city is under a curse where all 23 trapped souls will die if The Golden Rule is broken. Oh, and you’re trapped in a time loop too. Naturally, you’ll have to exploit this time loop as you investigate the area, find out who’s causing the loop and try and escape from it yourself.

If you’re not familiar, the game is actually based on a very successful mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. However, this is an entirely new setting and story, so don’t expect too much of an advantage if you’re going in having played that.

As this version is delivered via digital streaming, a constant internet connection will be required. Helpfully there’s also a free demo on the Nintendo eShop you can use to check your connection first. Handy!

Have a gander at the trailer for the game below. The Forgotten City: Cloud Version is out today for the Nintendo Switch.
