The only game I know of that does linearity, horror, atmosphere and gameplay right and all in one eerily claustrophobic, fear- and guilt-inducing package. It's absolutely THE best game I've played in a long time.

Take two giant, spherical boulders, a straightforward gameplay mechanic coupled with surprisingly simple yet nuanced mechanisms of defense from said game mechanic involving boulders and wrap it in a lovely Terry Gilliamesque aesthetic and you have a ridiculously fun and entertaining game.

If you can't be bothered to read that, just play it fer fuck's sake!

The go-to banana republic simulation! The natural options are all there -- be a saint, a megalomaniac, a jerkass or anything in between and watch your little people work their asses off in sweatshops and reel from your decisions. It's easy to do decently and difficult to do well (or horribly unless you overplay your hand) but overall, it's damn good fun and pretty as fuck to boot.
