Video Games

I really love video games and think they can be a great way to deliver more dynamic narrative experiences, here are some I particularly love and feel like deserve a special mention!

Game Year Played Notes
Baba Is You 2019 This game was my introduction to good puzzle games, I am still amazed by the concepts in it and their execution, it permanently changed my views on gameplay in games and how they should be handled.
Disco Elysium 2020 Most immersed in a game I have ever been, the attention to detail and deep dives to deep philosophical and sociological concepts, on-point humour and extremely eloquent writing just make it an unforgettable narrative experience that feels personally tailored to you
Zero Escape 999 2019 This game is the peak of experimental storytelling, it tells a story only possible on the Nintendo DS and does so amazingly, the mystery is very strong and airtight, everything feels connected and allows for a lot of speculation while having a very satisfying conclusion.
Hypnospace Outlaw 2020 It's like browsing fictional alternate reality social media and finding out a conspiracy theory plot in the process, absolutely phenomenal.
Exapunks 2021 Using programming concepts as part of a hacking puzzle game in order to solve real world situations is fantastic in concept and Zachtronics executed it flawlessly.
