Stories Untold is free on Epic Games for a few days
Not the best game ever or anything but definitely worth a look. It’s a pretty poor text adventure in the first episode, albeit one with a cute gimmick, followed by several more instances of tedious gameplay in the following episodes. The “reveal” is pretty obvious early on (tbh I was hoping for it to be something else), but the sum is nevertheless much greater than the sum of its parts. The game creates a brilliant creepy atmosphere that’s worth checking out.
If you’ve ever watched Murder She Wrote (and probably also if not) you should definitely watch her recent reviews of some of the episodes.

There’s a Daedalic build-your-own-bundle (from 50 games) on Fanatical.
I wonder which of these games are worth getting though. I already have some of them, but didn’t play a single one yet.
So on one hand, it is a good time to complete my Daedalic collection, on the other hand it could be a waste.
Interesting games I don’t have yet:
Deponia Doomsday
Candle
Fire
Dead Synchronicity
Randall’s Monday
Silence
Journey of a Roach
Pillars of the Earth
Any recommendations?
-
Candle: Worth a buy if you don’t mind some platform elements. The story is average, but not bad.
-
Journey of a Roach: Nice “snack” for your coffee break. Short game but some funny ideas.
-
Pillars of the Earth: I haven’t played it yet but it consists (mostly) of quick time events.
-
Deponia Doomsday: I haven’t played it yet but it has an open end.
I haven’t played all other games (but they are on my list), so I can’t say much about them.
Provided you like the other Deponia games, I absolutely recommend that one.
Fun game, if you can handle the constant swearing. If you like Deponia, you cannot go wrong with that one.
Never got far into this. Much more serious in tone than the two games above, with a more complex story, though it ultimately failed to draw me in. Give it a try if you’re in for drama, Telltale-style, without a lot of puzzles.
Haven’t played any of the others.
Well, I read the book watched the TV series
I still need to get around playing them. I tried a bit of the first one once (15 minutes or so), which is a bit short to make up my mind whether I like it. But I didn’t dislike it.
Toonstruck is free on Gog right now to help promote their summer sale.
Too bad for them; I might’ve bought it.
Great! I had that on my wishlist.
Oh no… 250 unplayed games on the wall…
