Yeah, I once walked into a Gamestop and saw how expensive new games have gotten...

Joking aside:

  • Journey

  • To the Moon

  • Spiritfarer

  • Ori and the Will of the Wisps

All good games, I can't recommend them enough.

God … Spiritfarer. What an amazing experience. I didn’t cry but quite a few times I had to put down the controller and just stare out the window. It’s not sad but it is so sad. It’s so wistful and god just loved that game.

Ooh can you tell me a bit more about spiritfarer? I bought it excitedly a few months ago but stuff happened and I didn't play it for a long time. And now I find it kinda hard to get back to it. Also I seen to be stuck with some basic early missions

Stovetop gives a great explanation of the mechanics so I’ll just add about the vibes. Spiritfarer is sweet and kind at its heart. The main interface of the game is giving hugs and cooking the favourite foods of your passengers. You explore both physically in your boat and in the lives of your friends, and hopefully you come to understand a little bit about life and death. And patience too, sometimes you’re not really stuck you’re just not ready yet.

This is precious what made me buy it. This and the beautiful visuals. I will for sure give it another shot!
