Once in a while I check the popularity of the games I have reviewed on this blog. Here are a couple of games I feel deserve a bit more attention.
The SCUMM-style interface and some poorly clued objectives might not appeal to modern players used to easier games, but for old-school genre fans, The Legend of Skye provides a wonderful dose of nostalgia, transporting you back to the golden days of point-and-click classics. Enypnion Redreamed (2023 - Sinking Sheep)
Experienced adventurers can probably cruise through Enypnion ReDreamed in their sleep, though some of the logic puzzles might be responsible for a few nightmares. Overall, though, it’s a short but charming little journey through the subconscious that may just remind you of your own childhood nighttime fantasies.
This Bed We Made (2023 - Lowbirth Games)
This Bed We Made sacrifices some snooping freedom and player
challenge for a more linear narrative, but there are plenty of thrilling
discoveries to unpack in this compelling Hitchcockian mystery.
INDIKA (2024 - Odd Meter)
INDIKA is an eclectic mix of graphic styles and gameplay about a
young nineteenth-century Russian nun that will keep you glued to your
seat with its challenging but mature reflection on faith and human
morality.
Sanya’s very simple gameplay won’t challenge anyone over the
age of its young protagonist, but even for adults, this quaint, lovely
side-scrolling adventure is like a nostalgic trip back to childhood.
Twilight Oracle is a nostalgic ride through a zany fantasy world, though even its witty banter can’t hide the fact it’s a short story with a simple plot only good for a single afternoon’s fun.
