Looking for switch games that make you think

Ideally, I'd like a game that would be good for logical thinking and appropriate for an 8 year old for a few years? Any ideas?

Baba Is You :)

no, but for real. Puzzles are your best bet

Baba is you is really Great!

However, I don't know, if the reading comprehension is good enough at that age for this.

Probably good for the earlier puzzles. Some of the later ones can get mind bending.

It's not really reading comprehension, since the grammar and syntax is game-specific. Learning that something "is push" is its own learning curve.

idk if an 8 year old would be able to beat it, I’m too dumb for some of the harder parts lol
