I loved the first Samorost game years ago but never clicked with the second one and didn't like Machinarium. Maybe I've just gone off point 'n' click adventure games though. I bought both DOTT and Grim Fandango remasters and haven't touched them. :(

25. What Remains of Edith Finch: a woman returns to her childhood home to explore the circumstances of the individual deaths of her family members. So far so Gone Home, and indeed in the opening minutes it does seem like this is going to be a walking simulator by the numbers. The exploration of the house is just a framing device though and when you get into each family member's room it kicks off a playable vignette that tells their story. These vignettes vary wildly in length, mechanics, mood and even graphical style but they're all engaging and excellent. You never know what each story will entail and the compellingly fanciful nature of them pulls you through the game in a way no other 'walking simulator' has ever managed. There was even a lovely little nod to the studio's previous game, An Unfinished Swan, that made me smile when I came across it. The way interaction is handled throughout makes it another example of something that just could not be done in any other medium which is always nice to see. The absolutely only criticism I think could be levelled at it is that £15 for a few hours is maybe a bit steep. Frankly I couldn't give a shit and thought it was worth every penny because but undoubtedly others will moan about that. Anyway, it's fucking awesome: go play it.

Some random thoughts:

Mad Max is one of the most underrated and is probably the best GTA clone i've ever played. Some parts are of absolute beauty and memorable, like the church in the middle of the desert and the airport.

Symphony of the night is not as good as most people say. It's too easy, and the second part really drags on. The Aria games and Order of Ecclesia are much better.

The first Witcher 3 expansion keeps the high standards of the main game. Absolutely sublime writing and characters and puts all the other AAA developers to shame.

A stunning and beautiful metroidvanian Dark Souls.

Not for casuls cause it's absolutely rock hard; especially that true boss. Actually I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't even kill him. I accidentally triggered the middle ending (there's 3) trying to wack the first of the two bosses so I could grab some magic for the last fight, like a dick. I kinda lost interest after an hour of the same guys so, y'know, I don't care. 39 hours and 90% completion biches.

It looks and sounds lovely and is genuinely quite funny, but I wasn't motivated to get all the assorted endings because they mostly meant playing the same thing over and over with just minor different decisions. Not least because the further in you get the less obvious what those different decisions actually are so you could end up spending time going through all the same content and not even getting a different ending because you missed something.

I loved the art style, thought it was beautiful and creepy, the music added to the atmosphere, the main character had a fabulous little look (girl in a yellow raincoat), and I liked the running animation for some reason, lots of character throughout. One zoom out was astonishing good. The whole boat premise and the rocking levels was fab. The chapter select screen is real nice.

Downsides:

More INSIDE than LIMBO so no real challenge.
I found it a little too dark. Literally too dark, so much so that I had to turn the brightness slider up to max.
Zero death animations. LIMBO & INSIDE both had great deaths.
A little clunky feeling and button layout. The "use" and "grab" button could and should have been on the same button.
Some poor checkpoints.
It lacks the polish and quality of INSIDE.
Some dodgy camera angles.
The whole boat premise and the rocking levels was never really used. Timing a jump onto a gently swinging platform, check. Anything else? Nope.
No puzzles of any kind really. It's daft. Grab a key and open a lock is as good as it gets which is so lazy it's insulting.

But here's the real kicker: it's FAR FAR too short. 2 hours max. There's collectibles scatters about but no reason to get them. INSIDE had a secret ending and optional puzzles that you could find off the beaten track. None here. £16 for 2 hours is ridiculous for this type of game when INSIDE exists.

So it's goodish and worth playing but only when it's dirt dirt cheap.

Seriously, play INSIDE it's fucking amazing.

See, because I don't have much time to play two hours is attractive to me.

In that case, get INSIDE. It's only fractionally longer but much much better. Seriously, it's outstanding with an ending section that's just nuts.

27. Assassins Creed: Syndicate: I haven't touched an AC game since giving up on the original one after only a couple of hours way back in the day so I came to this pretty clean and, frankly, I fucking loved it. It still has issues with the controls at certain times which can be frustrating but you learn to live with and work round those pretty quickly. It's also slightly repetitive in that way only modern open world games can be but I don't really mind that as long as I don't play many of them in a short period. Those quibbles aside it's just flat out great fun; stalking and stealthily murdering a load of dudes never really gets old and with the grappling hook they've added for this game a lot of the set pieces basically turn into Batman Arkham style encounters which I'm absolutely fine with. The plot's interesting enough (although all the meta stuff goes completely over my head as I've no idea what's going on with the wider story) and most of the characters are well written and engaging. So, yeah, good stuff all round.

Have you tried things like "Quiet, Please"?

That's a puzzle game (is there a better name for this genre? Things like Dizzy and stuff, where you pick up item A to use with object B) that's only short.

I currently have Day of the Tentacle on the go, but I find it difficult to remember when I was sometimes.

I got about ten hours out of it including the side missions etc. Only got about 75% complete too.

Arr, there's more game there, to which I will return at some point, but I mainly wanted to move on to the phantom pain.

Althought the intro to that hasn't exactly done much more than irritate me.

I loved the intro to TPP. It was that good I played it twice. ;)

1) The Binding Of Isaac - Rebirth+

Finished all nine bosses with all fourteen characters on hard level. Some of it was utterly maddening, but at least it's done now. Still got 24 of the 339 achievements left to get, but I'm not too concerned about getting those as I've just had to do a three-hour run just to unlock one of them, with the last thirty minutes as a character that can be killed in one hit, which was rather tense. 8)

Finally. Still my one completion for the year, but pleased to finally 100% it. Some of the achievements were a bit of a nightmare though, plus beating the new boss with all the characters on hard level took a long time - beating it with Keeper took me over 300 attempts and 99% of those I didn't even reach it.

28. Faraway: Brilliant little 'escape' style puzzle game for iOS/Android that has you working through 18 levels of increasing complexity manipulating strange machines and deciphering codes to reach the exit. The art style is simple but effective (putting me in mind a bit of of stuff like The Talos Principle and The Witness) and the puzzles are logical to a fault. Highly recommended, especially for Russ given his recent proclivity.
