Nintendo Switch Critic Reviews

Animus does not have too much complexity or depth in order to be an innovative project, although it feels very comfortable to play it for its excellent technical section. It can be a great title for those players who do not decide to buy a Dark Souls game.

Animus: Harbinger is a good idea; a boss-rush-style Dark Souls mobile game that could have been a perfect fit for the Switch if its combat, levels and enemies had received a higher level of polish. As it is, for the budget price, massive fans of FromSoftware's brand of action may find some enjoyment here, but overall the stuttering performance, unreliable hitboxes, bland levels and shoddy AI all add up to make this one a pretty hard recommendation for anyone else.
