and it was easily the most exciting and interesting and amazing experience i have had in gaming since i played outer wilds. which, let me be clear, is i think the highest praise i could possibly give.
if anyone else can see the throughline between those two games could give me some more recommendations i would really appreciate it! i’m thinking along the lines of “games that strongly reaffirm your belief that video games are art”
I love inscryption! Easily one of my top 5 game.
Rainworld kinda hit the same vibe for me, that vibe being “games that let you figure it out, but not in a masochistic way”.
Return of the Obra Dinn is definitely the same type of game. I wish I could play it for the first time again.
