The Museum is Open: Please, Touch The Artwork 2 Is Out Now on Nintendo Switch!

Over half a million players have touched this hidden-object artventure. Now it’s your turn on Nintendo Switch.

23 MAY 2025 – ​ Please, Touch The Artwork 2 is Out Now on Nintendo Switch! Like a game of Where's Waldo/Wally on famous works of Modern Art, this hidden-object artventure is ready to reach a whole new audience.



The Nintendo Switch version of Please, Touch The Artwork 2 costs $4.99 (regional pricing may vary) and has a launch discount of 10% that will be active until the 6th of June.

🧠
For owners of Please, Touch The Artwork (the first game) the discount will be 20%, and vice versa: if you own Please, Touch the Artwork 2, the original title will be available for the silly price of just 99 cents. "I'd buy that for a dollar!"


Fans of hidden-object puzzles, quirky storytelling, and the surreal charm of Belgian artist James Ensor can now enjoy the award-winning short game on Nintendo’s beloved console. A short game that will leave a lasting impression!


Here is a recap of what the press had to say:

"Fun, low-stress hidden-object gameplay with gently absurdist, Python-esque humour."
​- NintendoLife.com

"My goodness, the presentation! James Ensor's paintings come to life in an exquisite way!"
​- N1up.nl

"This hour-long exploration of a surrealist painter's works is a small piece of art in its own right"
​- TheGamer.com

"A game that can kickstart a love for traditional art and highlights the beauty of paintings, while remaining entertaining and interactive."
​- PocketGamer.com

"A Masterpiece!"
​- many of the +7000 positive user reviews

About the game

You are a dandy, suit-wearing, art-loving skeleton, recently risen from the grave, with the ability to travel into and through paintings. Using this ability, you help repair rips in the paintings and find missing items for the people living inside of them.

A slow-paced, relaxing experience filled with humour, surprising characters and beautiful hand-painted art, carefully crafted from works by James Ensor, a Belgian Modern Art pioneer.
