Iris and the Giant
2020
Charming minimalist rougelike deckbuilder where each card is single-use. Pretty light given its heavy themes.
Omori
2020
A devastating story told through tight mechanics and beautiful visuals. Every time I wanted to point out a cliché, the game showed me it was already two steps ahead.
A charming adventure which is sadly a victim of the trappings of modern ports. Well worth a play nonetheless.
With bony hands I hold my partner,
On soulless feet we cross the floor,
The music stops as if to answer,
An empty knocking at the door.
It seems his skin was sweet as mango,
When last I held him to my breast,
But now we dance this grim fandango,
And will four years before we rest.

Hades

Having played through each of SuperGiant's previous games on release, seeing them tweak the formula each time and eventually produce this masterpiece is so rewarding. Undoubtedly #1 Indie game of 2020.
Ring of Pain
2020
Thematically and mechanically solid for a mobile game. If you like roguelikes(/roguelites), this is perfect for your lunch break at work.
This game, specifically Hit and Blow (memory game like Mastermind), sparked a competition between me and my ex I did not think possible
Façade
2005
5 stars for cultural meme significance
Anyone who says they saw the twist coming is a liar
With the exception of the Hunter Steam vent minigame in 2, why did I find these games so hard as a child??
