TR-49, Inkle's attempt at a deduction-based puzzle game, is pretty neat: www.digitalspy.com/tech/a701294...

omg

Wow, had my best Sektori run yet. 18.1 million and 10th place overall for the Redeemer campaign. I'm almost ready to move on from the game now after nearly 80 hours, but I've really loved my time with it.

My 2025 GOTY (it's not even close): Blue Prince The rest of my top ten in alphabetical order: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Consume Me Expelled! Hollow Knight: Silksong Keep Driving Sektori Split Fiction Strange Jigsaws Type Help

Blue Prince is Digital Spy's Game of the Year:

Digital Spy's 2024 GOTY : UFO50 🛸 Digital Spy's 2025 GOTY : Blue Prince🚪 This feels like the 🍒 on top for us! Thanks @digitalspy.com www.digitalspy.com/tech/g695316...

Sektori is so good!

I ditched Windows for Linux (Fedora) last week, and I'm really happy with the switch.

I think this game is really neat. I'd recommend it as well.

Type Help is fantastic, one for those who enjoy a good mystery deduction-based game. I played and finished this in a single five-hour sitting. william-rous.itch.io/type-help

I think Act 3 is the weakest part, but I was so invested in Silksong overall that I reached the true ending with 100% completion. I'm not that fond of the first Hollow Knight, so this was a pleasant surprise. I guess Hades 2 is next.

Really enjoyed Silksong’s first two acts. Less so with Act 3 so far - there seems to be a greater focus on combat (over exploration) and I think it’s less interesting as a result.

Consume Me is out tomorrow. I really liked how the game approached narrative design - it's Florence-like in a way, but more expansive. Up there as one of my personal favourites of the year, for sure.

Yeah, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is special. I've reached the final dungeon but I'm not ready for the game to end yet.

Despelote and Many Nights a Whisper are two very good short indies that came out this past week.

Old Skies is out today, and I had a good time with it. Always great to see a new Wadjet Eye game.

half the posts since i woke up being people disliking Blue Prince has driven me to write a steam review, lol

My colleague reviewed Blue Prince and gave it 5 stars. I've played it too and I agree with him - it is an incredible game, a masterpiece, and I don't think anything will top it for me this year.

A year ago today, as part of the @futuregamesshow.bsky.social Spring Showcase, we announced Blue Prince to the world. Now only 20 days remain until the doors to Mount Holly open permanently when our game launches on Steam, PS5 & PS+ Game Catalog, Xbox Series X|S, Windows & Game Pass.

"How Verity develops as a character across several playthroughs is the reason why Inkle's latest can stand out on its own." 4* from @digitalspy.com !

Inkle's new game Expelled! is out today. It's really good and better than Overboard!, which I also liked.

Lots of really good stuff in Steam Next Fest. Can't wait to play more of Moves of the Diamond Hand, in particular.

I really enjoyed Keep Driving, an indie road-trip RPG that was easy to immerse myself in.

Spent the past few weeks playing and completing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC. Mixed feelings about the game itself (I'm not a fan of its 'more is more' approach), but the PC port is a lot better than Remake's. No mouse cursor support for menus is an oversight, though.

Digital Spy names UFO 50 game of the year 😍 www.digitalspy.com/tech/g630444...

Here's Digital Spy's GOTY list...

I'm not usually into first-person shooters, but I Am Your Beast has a really satisfying fast-paced gameplay loop. I had a lot of fun with it.

Completely forgot I went through a Hitman: World of Assassination phase in January. The only games above it in my Steam Replay for this year were UFO 50 and three Atlus RPGs...

Getting into Infinity Nikki...

I reviewed UFO 50. It's going to be my personal GOTY.

Arctic Eggs is so weird yet also so good.

Mouthwashing is excellent. Unsettling and impactful. Completed the game in one afternoon, yet I'm still thinking about it hours later.

Finished Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Overall, a bit disappointing, but the character creator is great.

Not sure how much I'll use Bluesky really as I'm not a social media person, but I wanted to take a look.
