GameGrinOlly SmithJul 20188.5/10With perfectly crafted levels and an awesome electronic soundtrack, Vandals proves to be a great entry into the turn-based stealth genre. In many ways, it captures the sensation of what painting at night feels like.

God is a GeekNick GillhamMay 20187/10Equal parts puzzle adventure and creativity app, Vandals just relies a little too much on the players imagination for its variety.

Nintendo TimesEvan RoodeApr 20198/10GREAT - While its limited controls are a bit of a sour note, Vandals is a budget title with a refreshing concept absolutely worth looking into. Fans of turn-based RPGs will love the strategy and challenge involved, while puzzle fans will love its charm and easy to pick up gameplay.

Nindie SpotlightJustin NationApr 20194.5/10In the case of Vandals we have a title with pretty pretty cool presentation layered onto what amounts to a relatively generic puzzler with a unique artistic hook of sorts...

oprainfallJosh SpeerMay 20192.5/5 starsVandals was a bit of a mixed experience for me. I enjoyed parts of it, and found others held it back. I also really wish the game had more lore or something to ground things in. I don’t need a story to enjoy a game, but the fabric of the world it inhabits is still important. And while the art is simple and focused, they do tend to reuse environments and assets a bit too much. Though thankfully the main musical theme is pretty catchy. Then again, at $3.99, this is the most affordable version of the game, and I got at least 8-10 hours out of it. If you like quirky indie games on Switch, I’d say to give this one a shot. But if you want something incredibly meaningful and lasting, this might not be for you.
