Outer Wilds

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 do not hand out the title of masterpiece very often or lightly. In order for a game to reach that level of praise, all the details and bits and pieces, the graphics, the writing, the art direction, the music, the gameplay itself... everything has to come together to form a unified, cohesive whole.

I can say with absolute certainty that Outer Wilds meets that criteria. Is is beautiful, elegant and inspired. It's impossible to really explain why without spoiling it, and this game is uniquely susceptible to being spoiled.

The only downside is that once you have played it once, you can never really expience its full potential again. Again, it is impossible to explain why without ruining it, but its still well worth playing. Do yourself a favor and go play 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.

I think this is one of the best computer games ever written.

It is not without its bugs and foibles and can be enormously frustrating at times - that's what the forums are for! But you cannot help but keep coming back to it and back to it, pushing through. It's a puzzle library in a museum in an interdimensional anomaly in a beautiful little pocket universe.

Yes ... it's just so damn beautiful!

And they have given you the most fun spaceship ever to pilot around this place. I presume the experience is still wonderful on PC, but on a games console the tactile loveliness of controlling that little vessel with triggers and sticks is addictive.

And Andrew Prahlow's haunting soundtrack complements the rest of the team's huge, masterful, stylistic achievement.

Watch out for the ending! It packs a serious emotional punch!

Ps. I'm currently playing Echoes Of The Eye, the (so far) only DLC available for Outer Wilds. It is every bit as good as the main story!
