The 2020 what are we playing thread

Started playing Signs of the Sojourner, quite curious about it’s rather strange concept, and so far it does not disappoint. In part it reminds me of 80 Days, in that you travel between places and as you talk with people, new locations and routes open up on the map. Talking, however, is not selecting lines of dialogue or topics, but involves playing a sort of Dominoes with cards. That makes it sometimes tricky or impossible to get the outcome you’d want, but OTOH it will turn even the most mundane conversation into something pretty exciting.

There seem to be a decent amount of stories and mysteries sprinkled across the map, though no saying yet how repetitive additional playthroughs might get or how many it would take to uncover every little detail.

What’s really delightful, however, are the visuals. When I saw a trailer of the game I found the graphics a little peculiar, but now I’m wowed by the art style. I mean just look at those colors!

The soundtrack is also pretty good. Not as vibrant as the graphics, but it does a good job at capturing the mood of each location.
