Great art & soundtrack, and generally does what it says on the tin - point n click, hidden object comfy exploration. The pacing is a little strange and it’s all a little shallow though sadly.

An influential masterclass in the application of atmosphere and subtlety. Beautiful, powerful, surprising and mesmerising - Journey is a must play.

Turn-based survival with an insanely cool aesthetic, atmosphere and tone. Foreboding and dread are everywhere, but the game somehow manages to balance with an air of charm, irreverence & humour.

A mesmerising, hyperactive, colourful and emotionally rich rhythm game - super cool. Great design overall and fantastic music to carry it all the way to the end. Artistic, honest and addictive.

Won’t be for everyone, with an arguably repetitive gameplay loop, but I found it to not outstay its welcome and love it. A surreal squirrel mystery puzzler, surely showing its love of Firewatch.

As simple as they come, but strangely hypnotic and addictive. Love it. Sadly I am still fat IRL.

Really cute & wholesome little adventure game. Artstyle is great, writing is solid, gameplay loop is addictive and fun. Alba is a really great, relaxing excursion which can be finished in one sitting.

An autorunner with a dash & slide attack. Some of the original charm is here, but the (very clever) effort that went into making an autorunner interesting doesn’t quite make up for what’s now missing.

If you can stick around long enough to see through the shameless BOTW clone, Genshin has its own somewhat charming personality, and pretty fun combat. Its F2P gacha model becomes restrictive unless you’re up for an insane grind or… becoming a whale.

Giant Sparrow’s PS3 game finally comes to PC! An immediately captivating start is followed by clever explorations of mechanics that make for a delightful game which doesnt outstay its welcome. Get it!
