Talos Principle II
So this dropped out of nowhere, like, I saw Icely Puzzles post a video about there being a (apparently temporary?) Demo for this game, and immediately went and played it before watching, and I’ll just say, I’m impressed they managed to create a sequel to this game after the ending of the first. Either way…

The Talos Principle
So when I tell you that the team behind Serious Sam made another game, what genre are you thinking? Because personally, “philosophical puzzle game” is quite low on the list. So this is a philosophical puzzler with an overarching story. Like Portal but slightly more biblical.

The Outer Worlds
A 2019 space exploration game that’s super story heavy with some elements of mystery, and if you’re thinking of a certain other Outer game, you’d be thinking wrong. This one has guns! It’s one of the Obsidian RPGs, and I’m honestly surprised at how engaged I’ve been with this, since I’m not usually the kind…

NieR:Automata
The Dark Souls Of: Prepare to Cry Edition -And More Genre Switches- By Camellia Well uh, that happened. Anyways, welcome to open world story heavy game where you play as your new video game waifu and her boytoy/twink companion. You play as a giant fuck off mech-suit shooting robots out of the sky, as a…

Hi-Fi Rush
Rhythm game? Hell yeah! Wait, spectacle fighter hybrid? I never would have guessed this combination would exist. So you’re a rockstar with a busted up arm, and go get it replaced with a robot arm so that you can shred guitar. Except shit gets wild and suddenly you’re wanted by every damn security robot on…

Pokemon Legends Arceus
This. Oh my Arceus, just, this. This is what Pokemon has wished it was for the last 25 years. None of that bs railroading, none of that “oh you must catch one Pokemon then you know everything about it.” This game does so many things right and so many things that the franchise has needed…

Crash Bandicoot Trilogy
Got this game for the nostalgia, and now I actually like Crash 1. I recomend this for everyone who like oldschool platformers, but I especially recommend this game to the people that, like me, played and liked Crash Bandicoot 2&3 as a kid but didn’t really like Crash 1, as this version of crash 1…

DEATHLOOP
8 people, 8 kills, one day. Can’t be that hard right? Though when you wake up knowing nothing, with a face full of sand on the beach it’s not gonna be easy figuring out what to do or even who you are. As is customary for games that are easy to spoil, uhhh… Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1252330…

Borderlands 2
Don’t know what needs to be said here, everyone and their mum knows about Borderlands, but I never said I was only recommending new games, or diamonds in the rough, I said I was going to recommend games that I enjoy playing and that I think other people might enjoy playing. And thats what this…

Splatoon 3
First non-PC game on the list. So Splatoon is Nintendo’s entry into the shooter genre, and you might just think “oh Nintendo is a kids company this must be a kids game,” but no, stop doing that, this game is frankly extremely solid. Hell the amount of emphasis on movement, positioning and map awareness puts…

Control
Oh boy, first Triple A game on this list. Anyways, have you ever heard of the SCP Foundation? This is basically that but with an actually coherent world and story, and less unkillable monsters. You play as a “parautilitarian”, someone who can control “paranatural” forces, and the new head of the Federal Bureau of Control,…
