Outer Wilds

Outer Wilds is for those looking for a game that will keep them occupied slightly longer than the others on this list, with an average playtime of 15.5 hours. Players will have to unveil the mystery of a solar system stuck in a time loop. With simple and stylised visuals,Outer Wildsis a beautiful game. One which leans into the grandiose scale and uses the setting of an entire solar system to emphasise this.

Presenting the player with beautiful visitors and creepy corners of space. Another critical point of praise forÂOuter Wilds is the soundtrack, which helps add to the player’s experience. Creating the perfect atmosphere for both the grand, epic scenes of the game and the smaller scale points.Â

Firewatch has an average playtime of 4 hours as it guides players through the Wyoming wilderness with an incredible setting for a peaceful and suspenseful atmosphere during the exploration of this great wilderness. Much likeÂOuter Wilds,ÂFirewatch has a fantastic soundtrack.

Although not as grand a setting as an entire solar system. The soundtrack adds excellent ambience to the situations the player will find themselves in when playing this game. On top of this, all of the little details and the interactions the player will have with their boss via the handheld radio make this game a joy to play.
