Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 vs In Sound Mind: which should you buy?

For Filipino buyers, the choice depends on your PC specs and genre preference. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a brand-new, story-driven RPG with a longer 26-hour campaign and high community rating (4.5/5). However, it demands a powerful PC (min GTX 1060, SSD, 55GB) and is only on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox — no Nintendo Switch. In Sound Mind is an older indie psychological horror game with shorter 5-hour playtime, lighter requirements (min GTX 760), and is available on Nintendo Switch plus PC/PS/Xbox. It has a lower Metacritic score (74) but still decent community rating (4.1/5). If you have a high-end PC and love RPGs, go with Clair Obscur. If you have a budget PC, prefer horror-action, or want to play on Switch, pick In Sound Mind. No pricing data is provided, so factor in typical regional pricing: older indie games like In Sound Mind are often cheaper.
