This is a port of Enigma to the Vita and Nintendo Switch. Enigma is a skill/puzzle game inspired by Oxyd on the Atari ST and Rock'n'Roll on the Amiga.
If you are new to Enigma, you may want to take a look at a few screenshots or peek at the user manual.
Features
- Game controller support: analog joystick mouse controls and button mappings
- Front and rear touch controls with left/right mouse click gestures
- Complete level packages with >3,000 levels and pre-calculated preview screenshots
- Bluetooth/USB keyboard and mouse support. The Switch supports only a limited number of USB mice. Tested working with Logitech M187.
Installation
Extract the contents of Enigma_Switch.zip into the /switch/ folder on your SD card, so that you have a folder /switch/enigma/ with enigma.nro and more folders and files inside.
User guide
The object of the game is to find uncover pairs of identically colored Oxyd stones.
Simple? Yes. Easy? Certainly not!
Hidden traps, vast mazes, laser beams, and, most of all, countless hairy puzzles usually block your direct way...
Controls
Joy-Con:
Left Stick - Analog control of the marble and mouse pointer
Y/L - Select menu items, use object in game (left mouse button)
X/R - Cycle through inventory items (right mouse button)
A - Ok in menu (return)
B - Back, In-game menu (escape key)
Plus - Help screen (F1)
Minus - Destroy marble and remove one life (F3)
R+Minus - Restart level (shift-F3)
D-Pad (in menu) - Quick-select menu items (arrow keys)
D-Pad Left/Right (in game) - Quick-change mouse speed
D-Pad Up/Down (in game) - Cycle through previous messages
Touchscreen:
Front touch - Analog control of the marble and mouse pointer
Single finger tap - Select menu items, Use object in game (left mouse button)
Dual finger tap - Cycle through inventory items (right mouse button)
Dual finger tap works by holding one finger down and quickly tapping with a second finger somewhere else.
Mouse sensitivity can be adjusted in options or in-game via D-Pad left/right. The setting affects analog joystick, touch, and real bluetooth/USB mice.
