Easy to understand, hard to master! While it is free, there are in-game purchases.

The progress in Fallout Shelter is as challenging as it can get.
3. Super Kirby Clash
Kirby has a special free game for Nintendo Switch titled Super Kirby Clash. The goal will be to undertake missions and face powerful bosses. And for this, it’ll be necessary to create a team of Legendary Heroes combining the four available skills of the game. As you progress in the game, you’ll complete achievements and get rewards. Besides the missions, Super Kirby Clash has a story mode and a party mode if you are in the mood to have fun with your friends.
4. Pokemon Quest
If you find Pokemon Unite too complex, then here’s another Pokemon adventure you can experience on Nintendo Switch for free. In Pokemon Quest, you can make raids against wild Pokemon while exploring the island.
5. The Elder Scrolls: Blades
Want your first experience of the Elder Scrolls universe? The Elder Scrolls: Blades, while some argue might not be an ideal first exposure to Bethesda’s Open-World classic, is still a decent experience for a free to play game. The story and combat set pieces make it a strong contender on your priority list. There are bugs that persist in the game but overall as an experience, it’s worth a shot.
6. Brawlhalla
Brawlhalla is a 2D fighting game published by industry giants Ubisoft. The innovative fighting game brings together characters from different universes. It has a style that might seem similar to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate but the difference is Brawlhalla is free. Among its selection of characters, you can find iconic stars like Reyman and Ben 10 aliens, all having their own set of fighting styles and abilities.
7. Just Dance
Not surprisingly, another Ubisoft product makes it to the list. As fun as ever, Just Dance 2023 is a great way to keep partygoers occupied. However, you should budget extra for the Just Dancing+ subscription because the limited music selection of only 40 feels a bit restrictive. However, for occasional gaming and exercise, the basic bundle is more than enough.
