Hailed as one of the weirdest games of 2017, the Norwood Suite is a surrealist look into what it’s like to be a stranger in a world where you don’t quite understand the rules. The Norwood Suite is a hotel but it’s also a peek into what makes us a community and what makes us outsiders.
Spend your holidays on one of America’s most famous ponds in Walden, A Game. Take a look at Henry David Thoreau’s experiment in self-reliance through the lens of an interactive experience and maybe you’ll find yourself both entertained and educated.
If you’re looking for a beautiful adventure about what it’s like hunt for your father on the grounds of a haunted mansion you’ve… got shockingly specific tastes but your search has ended. Whispering Willows is the award-winning debut of Night Light Interactive and is haunting in every sense of the word.
I’m a sucker for personal games. Experiencing the life of another through gaming is one of the most important things our medium can do. Memoir En Code is the autobiographical story of Alex Camilleri throughout different periods of his life. Memoir En Code is thoroughly personal, and deeply rewarding.
Adventure games have never been more beautiful. Samorost 3 isn’t just a looker, either. Beneath it’s award-winning visuals lies a set of devious puzzles and a classic tale of friendship. Fall in love with the effortlessly brilliant series all over again.

My local multiplayer game is on sale and is pretty action packed.
Could you please add some video on your game page please?
Totally not going to break my page design, but I popped in a link to my Youtube channel with a bunch of sample videos. Here's one big chaotic 8p one from M+Dev which is the Wisconsin gamedev conference.
And here's a more technical 1v1 that's (still fast), but explains a lot of the more technical aspects of part of the combat (melee).
My holidays have had big fun party games since Mario Kart 64, so :)
In absolutely NO definition of "game" (being an academic one or not) are games required to be "action packed", my friend. Neither they are required to be "fun", which is just an emotion of the dozens or hundreds we can feel or express..
Can you imagine how bad the movie industry would be if all movies were to be "action packed"?
