Outer Wilds

This game is nothing short of incredible. If you're anything like me and enjoy exploring, beautiful visuals, story and music then you will not regret playing this game. I finished this game with tears in my eyes and you might too. Try it and don't let the first impressions it gives you fool you. Thank you for everyone involved in this game's production, you have crafted one of my new top 3 games.

Outer Wilds isn't just the best mystery game I've ever played, it isn't just the best space game I've ever played, it isn't just the best first person game I've ever played, it isn't even just the best 3D game I've ever played, for me it is the single best game I have ever played.

If you have not played Outer Wilds yet, what are you doing, play it. Outer Wilds is built on mystery and is a once in a lifetime experience so avoid anything to do with the game, sit your butt down, grab a controller and start playing.

The Good: Where do I even start? This game manages to balance story, character, gameplay, mystery and discovery all in its run time of about 10-20 hours depending on how smart you are. It's such an interesting mystery to uncover and it's told in a non-chronological order making it even more gripping. And since it is open world then you can uncover the mysteries of the solar system in almost any order and still have it be coherent and make sense. Not to mention the game looks great as well. And the soundtrack, don't get me started in the soundtrack. Andrew Prahlow does such a good job with the music in this game. The music is so emotional, eerie or warm. The music really creates the mood of each area. The game hosts 6 planets to explore each of them bringing something new to the table and changing over time. Speaking of time, it's one of the most important things in this game. It can be your greatest ally or your worst enemy. But most importantly you must take your time, as rushing through this game is not only difficult but also just gives you a worse experience. And also if at any point you are stuck on a puzzle and don't know what to do. Do NOT search it up, just leave the area and keep playing and soon enough you will find a solution.

The Bad: The only bad things about this game are: the pace starts to slow down a bit once you get close to the end and it's lack of replay ability. Thats it.

Do over all Outer Wilds is a once in a lifetime game and one of the greatest of all time. I could say so much more about this game but it's hard to talk about it without spoiling it, and this is a game where you must go in as blind as possible.

When you start playing this game for the first time (and you must) you may think ' okay, it's a nice little indie game to pass the time', but if you give it a chance you will very quickly come to realize that it is much much more than that.

The story and the message it conveys are truly fascinating. The attention to detail and the fact that it lets you choose your path, complement the experience. The art style and the world design are beautiful and unique, and the music will be stuck in your head for quite a while.

A work of art! Highly recommended!

This is an exploration, puzzle, mystery game that takes place in space. You play as a species named hearthians and your species recently discovered how to go to space. The game starts at the day where the character we're controlling is to go to space for the first time.

The game was being developed at least a decade past before it's release and i feel like this is very important on why this game is so perfect. Everything you see was refined for over a decade to come to it's finished form where it's more or less perfected for you. It takes some time before you're interested in it's mysteries, about one or two hours, but after you're wondering what happens and why, you'll be playing it until the end to discover everything you've wondered and the game does give an answer to every question you might have.

When i reached the end after finishing the DLC, the only thing on my mind was that this game is the best game i've played. Even better, best thing i've experienced. This is the highest 10/10 i can give, above everything else. A must play. Give it a chance.

I downloaded this on the Xbox with the monthly free games. I am so happy I did. I have been playing it non stop. I LOVE IT.

Being able to fly to different planets (with no load time!) and look around has been so fun. Each planet is different and creative.

I can absolutely say this has been added to my list of favorite games. Please give us updates with more planets to explore.
