Play time says a lot about how much we enjoy a video game. The more you play, the more value you’re getting out of a game. The Switch makes it easy to see which games we love most (the numbers don’t lie!), and I’ve put them in order here to show which games have been the best investments for us.
Our list of games are in order from most to least played. Some games are only played by one of the two of us, and those are noted in parentheses. Starred* games are newer purchases that we expect to move up quickly on this list.
