There are some IMMENSELY BEAUTIFUL games out there right now. Seriously… some of the most incredible and emotionally moving art I’ve ever enjoyed is available for such a good price it’s basically free. A short appreciation thread. (Recommendations inspired by the contents of this thread are very welcome) 🧵❤️
I am currently enjoying Gris. In which we are an emotionally fragile person who is slightly lost, exploring a slightly broken, weird and entirely beautiful world. It’s PACKED with mental health metaphor along the themes of solidarity and reaching out for community & support. But… not a single word of dialogue has been uttered so if that’s not your thing you can just sit back and enjoy the escapism of a wondrous world.
@herdingdata i cry at least once every time i play this game, so i play it a lot when i am grieving and the feelings are stuck. i highly recommend. i do not know how they made such a perfectly ethereal game that can be just played or tug at your heart if you want to let it
@gremlins this beautiful game is honestly therapy in and of itself. I can really see how it would help with those emotions. It’s amazing how they’ve accomplished that without words. I think I’m going to end up going back to listen to the soundtrack again and again and again for similar reasons
