Just finished 12 Minutes and Indika with my wife. Enjoyed the tight 5-ish hour gameplay with decent not-too-challenging puzzles and great story.
Basically 5-hour date night that’s more engaging than a movie.
Any other games that you can recommend in this category?
“it takes two”
Portal if you want to pass the controller, Portal 2 if you want multiplayer. Both great options for what you’re describing.
The Council, The Wreck, Haven, Orwell, Life Is Strange, Journey of course, The Stanley Parable, The Beginner’s Guide, Everything by Christine Love, Everything by Jonathan Blow, Inside and Limbo, Get Even, Betrayal, Kentucky Route Zero, Never Alone, Tell Me Why, A Plague Tale (both), Deathtrap Dungeon (interactive video adventure), Kholat, Asemblance, Firewatch, Her Story, The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter.
I include a bit of everything…
Great recs!
Played Stanley, Inside, Limbo, Everything (by David Oreilly?)
I’ll have to check out the rest!
Picked up Journey off Steam. Been meaning to check that out for a decade or so.
Journey is good.
Rime is a good (but emotional) story.
