Platform: Nintendo Switch

IMO, the last good Saints Row game. Humour is at different times stupid, crude and also clever. It’s absurd, and absurdly fun. Play with a friend.

Beautifully crafted, hugely influential, challenging and fun.

The new benchmark for smooth, responsive controls for skilful platformers. Funny art direction, great music and awesome level design which is super rewarding to overcome. A must-play for the genre.

The very influential testbed for ‘The Telltale Way’. A wonderful example of storytelling in games and in retrospect, remarkably accomplished. Its characters, and decision making ensure its a classic.

Proof that graphical fidelity are not required to tell a good story and have engaging characters. Good platforming puzzles too.

Transistor is a bold, beautiful masterpiece. Turn-based strategic combat which is fun and challenging punctuate an absolutely gorgeous, bittersweet story with typically great Supergiant dialog and VA.
