A masterpiece.

I haven't even finished yet, and this is my new favourite single player game.

The storyline and the way it's told, the exploration, the music and sound, the visual language -- all impeccable.

The physics simulation is realistic but not (too) punishing, and the mechanics it offers are used to create some brilliant puzzles that are a genuine joy to solve. I've seen some of these mechanics before in other games, but they have felt gimmicky, whereas Outer Wilds does it so well.

I enjoyed playing this with my partner, hot-seating it every game loop

Can't wait to try the DLC!

Some of the game mechanics take a little bit of trial and error to figure out, but I always find myself coming back to Tropico 6. I love the tongue in cheek humour and the variety of gameplay.

It's not the hardcore sim that many were expecting, and I can see why a lot of fans of Project CARS 2 were upset. However, it's still a really fun game, and it's the first thing I've played in years that comes close to scratching the itch left by Gran Turismo decades ago.
