(it’s Blue Prince, because how could it be not?)
Bold. Beautiful. Only slightly madder than the collection of scribbled notes you toon while playing.
Unearthed from the bottom of a @rawfury.bsky.social inbox, this masterpiece easily sits among indie classics like Inscryption and Outer Wilds.

Wednesdays
As I’ve said many times over: you might play a better game this year, but you won’t play a more important one.
Witnessing powerful @wednesdays-game.bsky.social @thepixelhunt.bsky.social talk at AdventureX, my respect for these creators, this game and what it signifies has only grown.

No sound or visuals, but the sharp writing of this (free!) text adventure paints the grimmest of pictures in your mind.
Unraveling its narrative structure makes you feel like a True Detective, and the way the game allows you to use the interface as your personal notebook is brilliant.

Time Flies
Simple in concept, flawless in execution. The amount of interactions @playables.net squeeze out of one (1) mechanic game design genius.
That it’s also a meditation on the fleetingness of life, featuring comedy as well as social critique is just enough to make your jaw drop.

Strange Antiquities
Started playing this just yesterday, and couldn’t put it down ever since. Well, until now.
Just like its horticultural predecessor, this one manages to capture the maniacal pleasure of identifying and labeling (dangerous?) magical objects, and dole them out to villagers.

No, that’s not a lo-fi version of The Last of Us.
It *is* however a super clever short hacking game by Mike Klubnika, the creator of Buckshot Roulette.
Eery vibes (a hacker using capital letters and punctuation *shivers*) and the award for Best Use of a Power Tool included.

I’m biased of course, but this is my list. Sue me.
Not your average creepypasta horror game, even though the student project this is based on helped spawn and popularise the genre.
Pulls some really clever tricks that you absolutely should not know about upfront.

Hades II
You can do worse than be the sequel to one of the most beloved roguelikes ever.
But at the same time, you *could* do worse.
I guess for Hades II it’s a bit of both. It’s got no business being as good as it is, but there’ll always be a lingering shadow over that exceptional feat.

The Drifter
Looks like how you imagined Monkey Island through rose-tinted nostalgia, but its design (that UI!) is slicker than a freshly paved highway.
In every definition - visuals, design, narrative, music and voice acting - a modern classic of the adventure genre.

Dispatch
This image tells you pretty much everything that’s wrong with Dispatch. It also tells you why it’s sold over 2M copies.
Personally I’m just glad the team behind my favourite Telltale stories are at it again.
It’s not without faults, but there’s so much room (also, money now) to grow.

Baby Steps
At all times, you’re four inches away from comically plummeting towards self-inflicted doom, losing precious progress.
So far, so Foddy, and this is his wildest ride. A brutal and funny stroll through an open world that doesn’t work as you expect, though you can find some nice hats.

Finished Sword of the Sea in one (1) 3,5h sitting. Just couldn't pull myself away from this *gorgeous* pilgrimage.
An essential mixtape of their previous work, the game bolts a meditative soundtrack and visuals to a thrilling sense of flow that none have mastered quite like @giantsquidstudios.com

A breathtaking interactive exploration of domestic child abuse that’s both respectful, nuanced and even optimistic.
