@herdingdata also Citizen Sleeper, which I’ve only played a small amount of but keep meaning to go back to when I can approach it like a book at bedtime. Loved what I played but I can’t do visual novels on a TV.
@herdingdata further recommendations along the story driven games line:
Venba, a game about cooking, and being a child of immigrants. It doesn’t quite hit the mark but got me thinking.
Unpacking, which unexpectedly made me cry. Did not see that coming when I started a game which consists entirely of unpacking boxes after moving.
Botany Manor, in which you play a regency(? maybe Victorian) lady solving puzzles to grow plants in her stately home.
@herdingdata I’ve been on a short games with something to say kick lately and loving it. Feels like we’re in a golden age of games being about more than clicking on enemy’s heads.
