An almost flawless explosion onto the scene by Jon Blow. Simple mechanics that grow increasingly complicated, making way for some challenging puzzles inside a beautiful and sombre world. Must play.

This game has its flaws; some of the quests are cheap & some of it feels drawn out or heavy-handed. Overall though, it’s a good time. A lot of care went into this, and it shows in charming art and VA.

One of, if not the best couch co-op games around. Classic beat-em-up sidescrolling action with great design and super fun combat.

Genuinely beautiful visuals and music and an engaging enough story to distract from otherwise pretty standard turnbased RPG gameplay.

A good game, but not a great Souls game. While there are some mechanical improvements, Dark Souls II is the buffet to it’s predecessors fine dining: lots of content, but none of it very good.

A game ahead of its time. Gritty steampunk setting and a gorgeous art style. Primarily a stealth game but the level design coupled with the player abilities make for lots of creative approaches.

Don’t Starve is exceedingly well designed, from its core gameplay to the aesthetics, music and sound. It’s very challenging, but absolutely full to the brim with content from a great team. Must play.

This in my opinion is the best Far Cry. Best world, best characters (even if the protagonist and his crew are a bit cringey), best moments, best plot.

The first and likely last masterpiece by Phil Fish. The amount of attention to detail and care that went into this game is crazy. A simple mechanic well explored and executed - a must play.
