Product details
Programming made fun with help from the minds at Nintendo
Kids can learn how to make their own games with guided lessons created by Nintendo. From a simple game of tag to a run-and-jump obstacle course, each lesson is broken down into multiple, manageable segments that let kids go at their own pace—and have fun in the process.
Learn the basics of visual game programming
By playing through interactive lessons, kids will learn the basics of visual game programming. Nodon, colorful creatures with distinct personalities, keep kids engaged through lessons with tips and motivating messages. With a simple press of a button, swap between the programming screen and the game screen—watch how programming changes the game on the fly.
Track progress and build confidence
After completing each lesson and building a game, kids will test their knowledge by completing Checkpoints—small puzzles or tasks to solve with programming. Master these skills and head to Free Programming mode to let your imagination (and programming chops) run wild.
The Nodon you meet each have distinct personalities that complement their functions. Have fun connecting them together to see how they interact and bring your game to life. The in-game Nodopedia lets you quickly check what each Nodon does as you create. There’s also a guide that recaps important skills! Easily swap between the Programming and Game screens to see the hard-working Nodon in action.
Take advantage of the Nintendo Switch system’s many features. Instead of the control stick, program motion controls to control your game. Want to create some competition? Add in a multiplayer function and pass a Joy-Con controller to a friend. It’s up to you (and your Nodon friends) to decide what type of game you want to make.
Looking for inspiration? Exchange codes and download* games from friends. You can even go into Free Programming mode to look at those downloaded games’ programming and put your own twist on it. Upload your own creations and share them with other Game Builder Garage players*. Learn programming, build games, and share with friends!

Good but would have like physical
I bought the game because I thought it was like dreams for ps4/5 In away it is kind of but different. I do enjoy the game and it is fun. I like the ability to be able to make my own games on the switch it is fun. I bought it digitally due to the fact I found out its only a code you get for the physical copy which is stupid but I guess that is the way everything is going now.

Fun and Interesting Game
This is a fun game for young and old! I picked this game up so my son and I could practice coding while gaming. The tutorials are easy to follow and the price was a good deal as well!
Verified Purchase
It finally arrived
I ordered this game on GameStop but they ended up screwing me over and are still struggling to give me my refund. Here it was fast and efficient, I really should have just ordered here first. Overall the game is fun and my little brother is looking forward to getting it on Christmas.
