Review: Nif Nif (PC)

If you’re in the mood for a laid-back card game that swaps out the usual battles for something a bit more bubbly, Nif Nif might just be your go-to game. Created by Springfox Games, this delightful roguelike deckbuilder puts you in the shoes—or rather, the hooves—of a lovable piglet on a quest to clean up a forest besieged by ominous goo. It’s a game where strategic thinking meets warm, fuzzy feelings.

Right from the start, Nif Nif charms you with its soft pastel colors and a chalk-like art style, crafting a calming atmosphere akin to a day at the spa. The gameplay is simple: you build a deck of cleaning-themed cards to scrub the grime off enchanted forest creatures. Each playthrough has branching options, letting you choose among battles, shops, or tranquil campfires, introducing a strategic twist to your cleansing journey.

Before we go comparing Nif Nif to heavyweights like Slay the Spire, remember—they’re in the same league but playing totally different games. Slay the Spire is the genre’s complex, demanding monarch. Nif Nif, on the other hand, is more like a charming little princess, focused on tidying up rather than creating chaos. While Slay the Spire’s tension is tangible with each card drawn, Nif Nif is all about gentle encouragement and calmness. It’s not about survival tactics—it’s about efficiently cleaning up. You might not always conquer Slay the Spire every run, but with Nif Nif, your success rate is a breezy 80%.

One of Nif Nif’s standout qualities is its inclusivity. Thoughtfully designed for neurodivergent players, the game includes muted default audio and clear transition screens to prevent sensory overload. It offers a gentle gateway into the deckbuilding genre, perfect for beginners or those wanting a laid-back gaming experience.

However, if you’re a seasoned deckbuilder fan, you might find Nif Nif lacking in complexity. Runs can be as short as ten minutes, and the difficulty doesn’t ramp up much, which might make it feel repetitive over time. There are unlockables like new cards and cute hats with gameplay perks, but the basic mechanics remain constant.

Where Nif Nif shines is in its simplicity. It’s not here to redefine deckbuilding, but to provide a cozy, bite-sized experience. The addition of another character, a grumpy cat with a unique deck, spices things up a bit, though the core gameplay stays intact.

For those seeking a deeply challenging deckbuilder, Nif Nif might feel more like a light snack. But for players who want a relaxing, family-friendly game filled with charming characters and positivity, it’s a delightful pick.

This review is based on a retail copy provided by the publisher.

Overall Score: 8/10

Summary:
Nif Nif presents a cozy, beginner-friendly deckbuilder with enchanting visuals and a feel-good atmosphere. Its short, calming runs and accessible design make it a perfect choice for those looking for low-stress gaming. With its adorable characters and gentle approach, it offers a sweet and soothing introduction to the genre.
