00:00Picture this you're on your deathbed staring at the ceiling and you suddenly realize you've never played these 30 linear games
00:06Tragic, right? Don't worry. We're about to fix that today
00:09We're diving headfirst into storylines tighter than your jeans after Thanksgiving with characters more dramatic than your last group chat
00:15These are the games that won't let you wander off won't let you craft 500 useless items and definitely won't let you forget them anytime soon
00:23So ignore all responsibilities and let's get straight into the linear madness
00:30Oh
00:34Claire Obscure Expedition 33 is a turn-based RPG that looks like someone took belly poke art mixed it with
00:40Existential dread and said yeah
00:41This should be a video game and somehow that worked really well because it's now the most awarded game in the game awards
00:472025 scooping up a whopping nine wins including game of the year best narrative best direction best art direction best score and music
00:54Best independent game best debut indie game best RPG and best performance
00:58Impressive for a game where your biggest enemy is occasionally your own sanity and beautiful nightmare vibes rather than just dragons or whatever
01:05The world is a haunting painterly fantasy where every turn of combat makes you feel like a tactician trapped inside a surreal art gallery that has trust issues and
01:13The linear structure keeps you on a focused path through compelling characters clever mechanics and a story that somehow mixes melancholy with witty observations about life death and artistic purpose in a way
01:25That makes you care about every encounter
01:27It wasn't just nominated a lot it crushed the record for most nominations ever at the show before turning them into wins
01:33Which means critics players and award juries all agreed this game isn't just good
01:38It's historically good and possibly quietly judging your past gaming choices
01:42I'm great
01:46I'm great
01:46A storm is coming
01:55South of midnight is a third-person action adventure from compulsion games that drops you into a southern gothic fever dream where the weather hates you
02:09The folklore wants to fight you and the scenery looks like it was handcrafted by someone who definitely listens to blues music while judging your soul
02:16You play hazel who survives a hurricane only to discover that her town of prospero runs on ancient myths haunted memories and creatures that look like
02:23Bedtime stories went through therapy and came back angry the game wastes no time pretending this is normal immediately handing you weaver powers
02:30So you can stitch reality back together while punching folklore legends that have been holding grudges since before electricity
02:36It's linear structure keeps you moving forward through swamps ruins and deeply uncomfortable
02:42Family history without letting you wander off and forget that everything here is emotionally complicated and slightly terrifying
02:49What makes it hilarious is how calmly the game presents absolute nonsense
02:54Treating supernatural chaos like a routine inconvenience while delivering gorgeous stop-motion inspired visuals
03:01Soulful music and dialogue that sounds like it knows exactly how strange this all is
03:06It's a focused stylish ride that proudly commits to being weird heartfelt and unapologetically dramatic and it even picked up recognition at the game awards
03:162025 for its impact in artistic direction which feels appropriate for a game that looks like folklore came alive and demanded respect
03:31Dispatch is a narrative driven adventure from ad-hoc studio that takes the bold creative leap of asking what if being a superhero was less punching and more answering phones while your life quietly spirals
03:48You play as Robert Robertson formerly known as Mecha Man a disgraced hero now stuck working the night shift as a dispatcher for other superheroes who are somehow worse at decision-making than the villains they fight
03:59The game's linear structure locks you into a desk job where your superpower is talking
04:04Judging and desperately trying to assign the right hero to the right crisis before everything collapses in a spectacularly avoidable way
04:11Every call is a personality test disguised as an emergency forcing you to juggle egos terrible ideas and the reality that capes do not improve competence
04:20What makes dispatch genuinely funny is how seriously it treats absolute nonsense delivering sharp writing rapid-fire dialogue and situations where
04:29Saving the city feels less heroic and more like workplace damage control
04:33It's a game that understands the true horror isn't monsters or explosions but responsibility deadlines and realizing that being the smartest person in the room is not as comforting as it sounds
04:43Dispatch succeeds by turning office drama into a super powered crisis simulator that somehow feels painfully relatable and deeply ridiculous at the same time
04:59Firewatch is a breathtaking story driven adventure that immerses you in the quiet mysterious world of Wyoming's wilderness you play as Henry a fire lookout tasked with monitoring the forest but the game quickly evolves into a gripping narrative filled with secrets suspense and human connection the writing is exceptional

05:29with every conversation, especially over the radio with your supervisor, Delilah,
05:33delivering humor, emotion, and subtle tension that makes the story feel alive and personal.
05:39Exploration is at the heart of the experience,
05:42with lush forests, serene lakes, and abandoned cabins waiting to be discovered,
05:46all beautifully rendered in a painterly style that evokes wonder and nostalgia.
05:50The gameplay blends walking, climbing, and using tools like maps and binoculars
05:54to uncover clues, unravel mysteries, and piece together an unsettling tale
05:59that lurks beneath the surface of this tranquil setting.
06:02Firewatch excels at atmosphere, creating a sense of isolation, curiosity, and discovery,
06:07while the evolving story keeps players emotionally invested.
06:10It's a linear game in structure, but every moment feels meaningful,
06:13every dialogue choice carries weight, and every breathtaking vista reinforces the sense
06:18that this is not just a game, but an unforgettable journey into the human experience and the unknown.
06:22In the cave? I don't know, rocks?
06:25NFS tells people not to go too far in there. It's pretty dangerous.
06:29So...
06:30So, I say, fuck it.
06:32You're a grown man, you can go where you want.
06:34Step into the iconic fedora of Indiana Jones in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle,
06:38where adventure, mystery, and danger await at every turn.
06:41This game captures the essence of the classic film series,
06:44throwing players into a globetrotting quest for legendary artifacts that could change history.
06:49Every level is a carefully crafted set piece,
06:51from crumbling temples filled with deadly traps
06:53to bustling marketplaces teeming with secrets.
06:55The puzzles are clever, rewarding both logic and observation,
06:59while the action sequences deliver thrilling, whip-swinging chases, daring leaps, and cinematic gunfights.
07:05What makes this game stand out is how it balances high-octane adventure
07:08with Indiana's witty, sarcastic personality making you feel like the star of your own blockbuster.
07:13The narrative twists keep you on the edge of your seat,
07:16with historical mysteries, secret societies, and rival treasure hunters adding layers of tension and excitement.
07:22The visuals are stunning, capturing the grandeur of ancient ruins, lush jungles, and sun-soaked deserts,
07:28and the orchestral soundtrack perfectly evokes the spirit of classic adventure.
07:32Whether you're solving intricate puzzles, escaping death-defying traps,
07:36or uncovering hidden lore, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
07:39is a masterclass in linear adventure gaming that makes you feel like a true hero on a legendary journey.
07:44Inside is a masterclass in minimalist storytelling and atmospheric design,
08:08delivering a haunting and unforgettable experience in just a few hours.
08:11You guide a mysterious boy through a dystopian, oppressive world,
08:15filled with eerie silence, shadowy figures, and cleverly designed puzzles that challenge both your brain and your nerves.
08:22Every environment tells a story without a single line of dialogue.
08:25Decaying factories, ominous laboratories, and grim landscapes all contribute to a sense of unease that permeates the entire game.
08:33The gameplay is deceptively simple.
08:35Run, jump, solve environmental puzzles, and avoid deadly threats.
08:39But the tension is constant, and every misstep can be fatal.
08:43Inside excels in pacing, gradually escalating the stakes until the shocking, ambiguous finale
08:48leaves players questioning everything they've just witnessed.
08:52Its visual style is dark, minimalist, and hauntingly beautiful,
08:56while the subtle audio cues, the creak of machinery, distant voices, and sudden, terrifying sounds
09:02create an immersive experience that grips players emotionally and mentally.
09:07In just a linear path, Inside proves that storytelling, atmosphere, and design can be more powerful than dialogue,
09:14delivering a game that is as intellectually stimulating as it is emotionally resonant.
09:18Split Fiction is the co-op adventure from Hazelight Studios that grabs two wildly different aspiring writers,
09:39Mio and Zoe, tosses them into a story-swallowing simulation that just happens to chew up every bit of logic they ever had,
09:46and then insists they team up like awkward roommates who forgot rent is due,
09:50because their only escape is beating both the sci-fi and fantasy absurdities born from their own imaginations.
09:56You'll leap between gravity bikes and sand sharks,
09:58race hoverboards like you're late for a wizard's dentist appointment,
10:01face an evil dancing monkey challenge you didn't RSVP for,
10:05and fight creatures that clearly skipped cardio day and leg day,
10:09all while split-screen gameplay forces you and a friend to cooperate or discover
10:13just how fast blame can be thrown in pixelated form.
10:16This game only works co-op, and it even brings back Hazelight's friend's pass,
10:21so you can guilt your least competent friend into joining you for free,
10:24which is only fair because one of you has to be good at puzzles.
10:27Critics gave Split Fiction practically glowing praise with overwhelmingly positive reviews,
10:32and it became one of the best-reviewed games of 2025 on Metacritic,
10:36selling millions of copies in a matter of days,
10:38and even earning multiple Guinness World Records for local co-op play and rapid sales,
10:43basically proving that people really do want to play imaginary worlds with other human beings
10:47instead of yelling at NPCs.
11:02Journey is less a game and more a poetic experience that transcends traditional storytelling.
11:06From the moment you step onto the vast desert sands,
11:09you are enveloped in a sense of wonder, solitude, and exploration that is almost meditative.
11:14The path is linear, yet every dune, mountain, and ancient ruin feels alive with narrative potential,
11:20telling a story through visuals, music, and movement rather than words.
11:24The multiplayer element is subtle but profound.
11:27You may encounter other players along your journey,
11:29and your brief, wordless interactions create a shared emotional experience
11:33without breaking the game's delicate atmosphere.
11:36The gameplay is simple.
11:37Glide, climb, and interact with mystical symbols to progress,
11:41yet the challenges and environmental puzzles are perfectly tuned to evoke awe and reflection.
11:46Visually, the game is breathtaking, with sweeping vistas,
11:49dynamic lighting, and fluid animations that feel almost painterly,
11:52coupled with an award-winning soundtrack that reacts dynamically to your actions,
11:57Journey is a linear adventure that captures the essence of hope,
12:00perseverance, and connection,
12:02leaving players with an unforgettable emotional impact that words can scarcely describe.
12:06Stellar Blade delivers a futuristic, action-packed narrative that merges fast-paced combat with a deeply engaging story.
12:27Set in a sprawling sci-fi universe,
12:29players take on the role of a skilled warrior navigating a collapsing society threatened by enigmatic forces.
12:35The linear design ensures a tightly woven story,
12:39guiding players through meticulously crafted environments that range from neon-lit cityscapes
12:43to derelict space stations, each brimming with lore and secrets.
12:48Combat is fluid and cinematic, blending acrobatics, melee, and advanced weaponry
12:52into a spectacle that feels like playing a high-budget sci-fi blockbuster.
12:56The story tackles themes of loyalty, betrayal, and survival,
13:00with intense cutscenes and character development that make every confrontation meaningful.
13:05Stellar Blade's audio and visual presentation is phenomenal,
13:08with a pulsating score, dynamic lighting, and richly detailed characters that elevate the narrative.
13:14Exploration, while guided, feels rewarding,
13:17with hidden items and lore pieces that add depth without breaking pacing.
13:21For players who crave immersive storytelling combined with thrilling combat,
13:25Stellar Blade is a linear adventure that delivers both spectacle and emotional resonance in equal measure.
13:30Neva is a hidden gem of narrative-driven gaming,
13:45offering an emotionally charged, linear experience that explores human relationships, loss, and resilience.
13:52You follow the story of Neva, a character caught in a web of personal and societal conflict,
13:56as she navigates a world filled with both beauty and danger.
14:00The game blends exploration with puzzle-solving and environmental storytelling,
14:05guiding players through intimate interiors, bustling urban settings, and quiet, contemplative landscapes.
14:10The narrative unfolds through dialogue, subtle visual cues, and immersive cutscenes,
14:15ensuring players remain emotionally invested from start to finish.

14:24and meticulously detailed environments that breathe life into the story.
14:28The sound design further elevates the experience,
14:31with a delicate score, environmental audio, and nuanced voice acting that convey emotion and tension.
14:37Neva is more than just a game.
14:39It's a journey that pulls players into its world,
14:41making them care deeply about the characters and choices,
14:44and proving that linear storytelling can be as profound and impactful as any blockbuster narrative.
14:49Uncharted 4 is proof that Nathan Drake is both the luckiest and unluckiest man alive.
15:07Lucky because he somehow survives every ridiculous situation thrown at him,
15:11falling off cliffs, crashing cars, dodging explosions,
15:15but unlucky because, for some reason, people just refuse to let him retire.
15:20In this game, our boy Nate is chilling with his wife,
15:23finally living a normal life,
15:25when BAM!
15:26his long-lost brother Sam shows up like a debt collector,
15:29dragging him back into the treasure hunting business.
15:32And what follows is basically Indiana Jones,
15:35but with even better graphics and way more climbing.
15:38Seriously, I hope Nathan Drake's chiropractor is on speed dial,
15:41because this man spends half the game dangling from ledges by a single hand.
15:46The action sequences are insane.
15:48You're in a full-speed jeep chase,
15:50jumping between trucks,
15:51fighting off mercenaries,
15:52and somehow not dying of a heart attack.
15:55But beyond all the chaos, the game's got heart.
15:58It's about family, regrets,
15:59and whether or not your wife will murder you for sneaking off to Pirate Islands.
16:02Spoiler, Elena is a saint.
16:04Uncharted 4 is the perfect blend of action, humor,
16:07and how am I still alive moments.
16:09Silent Hill 2 is not your average horror game.
16:37It's like a therapy session that went horribly, horribly wrong.
16:41James Sunderland arrives in this cursed town looking for his dead wife,
16:45red flag number one,
16:46only to find himself trapped in a fog-filled nightmare
16:49where everything wants to kill him.
16:51Nurses, mannequins, pyramid head,
16:53who is essentially a gym rat with a sword bigger than his mortgage.
16:56The remake is set to make things even scarier,
16:59with graphics so realistic that you'll probably start seeing fog in your living room.
17:03But what makes Silent Hill 2 special isn't just the jump scares.
17:07It's the psychological horror.
17:09This game doesn't just want to spook you.
17:11It wants to mess with your head.
17:13Every monster is basically James' trauma in horrifying, fleshy form.
17:18And if you weren't questioning your sanity before playing,
17:21you sure as hell will after.
17:23Silent Hill 2 is the kind of game that will haunt you long after you turn off the console.
17:28Just don't play it at night,
17:29or alone,
17:30or near mirrors.
17:31Actually, just move to a sunny beach and forget this place ever existed.
17:34Kratos used to be the angriest man in gaming,
18:02ripping gods apart like they were pieces of rotisserie chicken.
18:05But in God of War 2018,
18:07he's trying something even harder than killing deities.
18:10Being a dad.
18:11And let me tell you,
18:12watching Kratos try to parent a sassy preteen
18:15while also fighting off dragons, trolls, and undead viking warriors
18:18is peak entertainment.
18:20This game takes everything great about the old God of War games
18:23and injects it with emotional depth.
18:25The combat is ridiculously satisfying.
18:28The Leviathan Axe is basically Thor's hammer, but cooler.
18:31And the world is filled with Norse mythology goodness,
18:33from talking heads to world serpents
18:35who sound like they just woke up from a nap.
18:37But the best part?
18:38Kratos struggled to connect with Atreus.
18:41This is a man who once ripped gods in half with his bare hands,
18:44and now he's trying to figure out how to express feelings.
18:47Honestly, the real boss fight here is fatherhood.
18:50If you want epic action,
18:51great storytelling,
18:53and a constant stream of boy,
18:54God of War is a must play.
18:56Just remember,
18:58Kratos may have mellowed out,
18:59but he can still throw hands with a mountain if he has to.
19:05Get your tool of yourself, boy.
19:07I'm fine!
19:09Kill it!
19:09Watch out!
19:14Ah!
19:16Ah!
19:18Ah!

19:26Ah!
19:28Resident Evil 4 is back,
19:29and guess what?
19:30It's still absolutely bonkers.
19:32If you thought Leon Kennedy was cool in the original,
19:34he's somehow even cooler now.
19:36This man walks into a zombie cult village with nothing but a handgun and his impeccable hair,
19:41and instead of panicking, he just starts roundhouse-kicking fools like it's an action movie.
19:46The remake makes everything even better.
19:49Smoother combat, scarier enemies, and yes, that mysterious merchant is still here, still asking,
19:54what are you buyin', like a sketchy alleyway dealer.
19:58The game is packed with pure chaos.
20:00One minute, you're fighting chainsaw maniacs, and the next, you're in a medieval castle dodging flaming catapults.
20:06And let's not forget Ashley, the president's daughter, who has mastered the ancient art of getting kidnapped every five minutes.
20:13But honestly, that's all part of the fun.
20:16Resident Evil 4 remake is a thrill ride from start to finish, proving once again that Leon
20:20Kennedy is the John Wick of zombie games, just make sure you have enough herbs because this game does not mess around.
20:50The Last of Us Part 1 is not just a game, it's an emotional ambush.
20:55You think you're here for some zombie shooting fun? Nope.
20:58You're actually signing up for trauma, trust issues, and probably crying in the fetal position by the end.
21:04This remake takes the already heart-wrenching story of Joel and Ellie and makes it even more visually stunning,
21:09so now you can see every tear in HD.
21:12The world is brutal, the infected are terrifying, and every encounter feels desperately intense, because every bullet counts.
21:20But the real beauty of The Last of Us is the relationship between Joel, the grumpy survivor, and Ellie,
21:26the foul-mouthed teen who somehow makes dad jokes during the apocalypse.
21:31Their journey is full of terrifying encounters, quiet emotional moments, and yes, giraffes,
21:36which is the closest thing this game gives you to happiness.
21:39If you haven't played this yet, what are you doing?
21:41Just know, by the time you finish you will need a hug, or several, and maybe some therapy.
21:50If Dark Souls and Journey to the West had a baby, it would be Black Myth Wukong, a game where you play as Sun Wukong,
22:19aka the Monkey King, aka the only primate who can solo an entire army with a staff and still look stylish doing it.
22:26This game is dripping with mythological goodness, gorgeous landscapes, bizarre creatures,
22:31and enough boss fights to make your controller question its life choices.
22:35Combat is buttery smooth, and Wukong's transformations let you switch things up mid-fight,
22:41from turning into a giant monster to straight-up cloning yourself, because why fight fair when you can fight with four of you?
22:47The game looks like a kung fu fever dream, and honestly,
22:50I'm ready to get my butt kicked by every ancient Chinese deity they throw at me.
22:54If you like souls-like games, but want to feel like an overpowered monkey god instead of a sad,
22:59medieval knight with PTSD, Black Myth, Wukong is your next obsession.
23:13Final Fantasy VII Remake is proof that nostalgia isn't dead. It's just been remastered in 4K and given a ridiculous budget.
23:25This game takes everything you loved about the original and cranks it up to 11.
23:31Better combat, stunning visuals, and more Tifa punching things. Which, let's be honest, is what we all wanted.
23:47Cloudstrife is still the ultimate broody anime protagonist. Sephiroth is still the world's most dramatic villain.
23:53Midgar looks so good that you'll want to live there, until you remember that the entire city is basically run by an evil power company that treats people like disposable batteries.
24:05The new combat system is Chef's Kiss, a perfect blend of action and strategy that makes every fight feel like an anime battle scene.
24:13And the best part? This remake isn't even the whole story yet, meaning we have even more Final Fantasy VII goodness to look forward to.
24:19Just be warned, the game might hit you with some unexpected twists that will have you staring at your screen like,
24:25WAIT, WHAT DID THEY JUST CHANGE?
24:28Get him!
24:33Come on.
24:36You're here.
24:38I'm coming!
24:41I won't get on.
24:43Tagging out.
24:51Maybe this will be the best.
24:55This isn't just a game, it's a psychological rollercoaster that will leave you questioning your own sanity.
25:00Senua's sacrifice puts you in the shoes of Senua, a warrior suffering from psychosis, as she fights through a nightmarish world filled with monsters, illusions, and voices that never shut up.
25:11And the best part? You need to listen to them, because they'll sometimes give you hints.
25:16Or just mess with your head for fun.
25:18The game is brutally immersive, with combat that feels like every swing of your sword is life or death,
25:24and puzzles that make you feel like you're either a genius or an idiot, no in-between.
25:29There's no HUD, no health bar, just you, Senua, and your ability to not freak out when the game starts whispering directly into your ears.
25:38Play this one with headphones for maximum, oh god, I think the game is talking to me moments.
25:44It's terrifying, it's beautiful, and it's an emotional gut punch in the best way possible.
25:50No tears...
26:02...end it!
26:05End it! No, you will never end.
26:12Alan Wake is back, and this time he's not just a struggling writer, he's a struggling
26:21writer trapped in a literal horror novel.
26:23Alan Wake 2 takes everything creepy from the first game and turns it into a full blown
26:27survival horror masterpiece.
26:29This game is so scary, even Alan's typewriter is probably haunted.
26:34You switch between Alan and newcomer Saga Anderson, an FBI agent who definitely regrets
26:39taking this case.
26:40The game plays like a psychological thriller directed by Stephen King on way too much
26:44caffeine, shadows try to kill you, reality warps around you, and sometimes, Alan literally
26:50writes his way out of danger.
26:52Combat?
26:53It's all about light versus darkness.
26:55So your best weapon is a flashlight, because nothing says horror badass like blinding your
27:00enemies before unloading a shotgun into their haunted faces.
27:03If you like your horror games with a side of existential dread and a sprinkle of what
27:07is even real anymore, Alan Wake 2 is your next nightmare.
27:11You, you, you, you, you, you, you're been killed.
27:26Shed-
27:29Alien-
27:31Alien-
27:32Crazy Nate-
27:36?
27:36Alien-
27:37Alien-
27:38If you've ever wanted to make extremely stressful life or death decisions while questioning
27:46whether AI will eventually replace us, Detroit Become Human is the game for you.
27:51This is basically an interactive sci-fi movie where your choices actually matter, like,
27:56oh no I made one bad decision and now half the cast is dead, kind of matter.
28:00You play as three androids, Connor, the detective bot who is somehow both awkward and cool at the
28:05same time, Marcus who goes from housekeeper to revolution leader overnight, and Kara who
28:12just wants to keep a kid safe in a world that is not safe at all.
28:16Every choice you make shapes the story, meaning you can either guide these androids to freedom
28:21or accidentally turn the whole thing into a robo-apocalypse.
28:25The game is filled with tough moral dilemmas, insane action sequences, and moments that will
28:30have you staring at the screen like, wait, did I just ruin everything?
28:33Plus, Connor and his human partner Hank have the best buddy cop dynamic in gaming, if you
28:39keep them both alive that is, no pressure.
28:41I'm an android, just like you.
28:47I know how you're feeling.
28:48What difference does it make if you're an android?
28:51You're on their side.
28:54You can't understand how I'm feeling.
28:58Are you armed?
29:02No.
29:03I don't have a gun.
29:05You're lying.
29:06I know you have a gun.
29:07I'm telling you the truth, Daniel.
29:12Welcome to A Plague Tale Innocence, where your two biggest enemies are the entire French
29:16Inquisition and about 10 billion rats that move like a demonic tidal wave.
29:20You play as Amicia, a teenage girl trying to protect her little brother Hugo, who, fun
29:24fact, has some seriously weird supernatural rat powers.
29:28The game is like The Last of Us, but with more medieval trauma and fewer zombies.
29:32You'll spend most of the time sneaking past murderous soldiers and praying to whatever
29:37gaming gods exist that the rats don't decide you look extra tasty today.
29:41Oh, and did I mention the rats hate light?
29:44Because that means your survival plan is basically stay in the glow or become rat food.
29:50The story is brutal.
29:51The world is gorgeous in the most depressing way possible, and by the end of it, you'll
29:55be both emotionally devastated and terrified of small squeaky noises forever.
29:58Go away!
30:00Shoes, go away!
30:01Calm down, Hugo.
30:03The light will protect us, alright?
30:05Alright.
30:10So that's their plague.
30:12Rats!
30:13The priest spoke of a way out, through the crypt.
30:22Amicia!
30:22The Three Snack Shoes!
30:24The Crypt of the Three Saints!
30:26It's the exit the father spoke of!
30:28We have to find another way!
30:31Hi-Fi Rush is what happens when someone says,
30:34What if Devil May Cry and Guitar Hero had a hyperactive baby, and then actually made it?
30:39You play as Chai, a wannabe rock star who accidentally gets his music player fused into his heart,
30:44turning his entire life into one massive rhythm game.
30:48Combat?
30:48It's on beat.
30:49Enemy attacks?
30:50On beat.
30:51Even the environment itself bounces to the rhythm.
30:54If you're not jamming while dodging laser beams and uppercutting robots, you're doing
30:57it wrong.
30:58This game oozes Saturday morning cartoon energy, with a killer soundtrack, hilarious dialogue,
31:04and the kind of combat that makes you feel like a rock god, even if you have zero sense
31:08of rhythm.
31:08It's so fun and upbeat that even when you're getting wrecked, you're still vibing.
31:13Seriously, if more games were this creative, we'd all have way too much serotonin to function.
31:17Wanted to help, right?
31:19Don't worry, it's just till I get out of here.
31:21Ugh, better not run off with her.
31:23Sifu is basically a love letter to martial arts movies.
31:52But instead of watching the action, you live it, over and over again because you will die.
31:57A lot.
31:58The game follows a young kung fu student on a revenge quest, but with one brutal twist.
32:04Every time you die, you get older.
32:06Which means you start out as a young spry fighter and slowly turn into an absolute grandmaster.
32:11But with the slight downside of creaky bones and less health.
32:15The combat is insanely smooth, with every punch, kick, and parry feeling like it came straight
32:21out of a Jackie Chan movie.
32:23But Sifu isn't just about looking cool.
32:26It's about mastering the fight system and learning from every failure.
32:30Because if you don't, you'll end up as a 75-year-old grandpa trying to beat up a room full of
32:35gangsters, and trust me, that's not a good time.
32:38If you love brutally difficult but wildly satisfying combat,
32:42Sifu will kick your butt and make you thank it afterward.
33:12This game asks the important question, what if you worked in a mysterious government building
33:19where reality doesn't make sense, and also you have telekinetic superpowers?
33:24The answer is Control, a game that's equal parts mind-bending sci-fi thriller and destruction
33:31simulator.
33:31You play as Jessie Faden, a woman searching for her lost brother inside the oldest house,
33:36a brutalist nightmare full of floating bodies, weird cult vibes, and enemies that look like they
33:41crawled out of a VHS tape.
33:43But who cares about that when you can yeet entire filing cabinets at people using your brain?
33:49The combat is ridiculously fun, with psychic powers that let you fly, throw objects,
33:53and turn enemies against each other.
33:55The story is deeply weird, in the best way possible.
33:58The world is a mix of mystery and madness, and by the time you're done,
34:01you'll be questioning whether you have superpowers too.
34:04Spoiler, you don't.
34:06But Control will make you wish you did.
34:11Control will make you wish you did anyerves!
34:13�� Siz could go back or update avoid an enemy.
34:13I want you to dodge the other than anyone else for you.
34:16the commandс to roof your hero.
34:21I want you to commit real good ahead!
34:23What is it?
34:25Let's go back and do it!
34:27Open it!
34:28Open it!
34:30It never ends here during a second season.
34:32I want you to consider A'svashi to murder him.
34:34١
34:34However, if necessary preparation or small parts,
34:36in any time, what did you tell us any more?
34:37Ever wanted to play as a cat?
34:45Of course you have!
34:46And Stray delivers the most realistic cat experience ever.
34:49You can run, jump, explore a dystopian cyberpunk city, and knock things over just to be annoying.
34:56This game perfectly captures the essence of being a cat, casually ignoring danger, solving
35:01puzzles by accident, and randomly meowing just because you can.
35:05But it's not all just kitty antics, there's actually a deep emotional story about loneliness,
35:10survival, and what it means to be free.
35:13You're navigating a world where humans are gone, robots are your new besties, and mysterious
35:18creatures want to eat you.
35:19But no worries, you've got a tiny robot sidekick, and together you're going to uncover some
35:24serious cyberpunk secrets.
35:26Whether you're a cat lover, a sci-fi fan, or just someone who enjoys pressing a button
35:31to scratch furniture, Stray is a must play.
35:35And yes, there's a dedicated meow button.
35:38Game of the year, every year.
35:42In the gray area.
35:43What the hell, the gladfin�ґ?
35:44It's 3 months later.
35:45Thank you,질� ITSRG all this clue.
35:46It is like a demon that is emotionally
35:51here.
35:53It is my head, this Schüler yeah Iberty.
35:55I can use this with her cause.
35:59I can use this a book proper code for you useless now.
36:08If you've ever wanted to play a first-person assassin simulator where you can stop time,
36:19teleport, and possess a fish, congratulations Dishonored 2 as your new best friend.
36:24This game is all about revenge, chaos, and looking extremely cool while doing both.
36:28You can play as either Corvo or Emily, and both have ridiculous supernatural powers that
36:32make you feel like an absolute god of stealth.
36:36Or a one-person apocalypse if you prefer the loud and messy approach.
36:41The level design, masterpiece.
36:43Each area is a puzzle box of death, just waiting for you to find the most stylish way to eliminate
36:48your enemies.
36:50And let's not forget the Clockwork Mansion, a level so brilliantly designed that it probably
36:53made other game developers cry in jealousy.
36:56Whether you play as a silent ghost or a murder tornado, Dishonored 2 ensures you have an absolutely
37:01unhinged good time.
37:02Just try not to possess too many innocent people, it's rude.
37:09Holy cow!
37:10This character's body is important.
37:11The background of the Iron Man, Dishonored 2 alone is one of his characters, but it's
37:12a way from the Azul.
37:13The character's body is important.
37:16Even though I don't fully understand the situation.
37:30You ever think, man, I love cowboy games, but what if there were more vampires and even bigger explosions?
37:47Well, Evil West is here to deliver on that exact fever dream.
37:50This game throws you into an alternate Wild West, where you play as Jesse Rentier,
37:55a cowboy who decided that bullets alone weren't enough, so he electrified his fists.
37:59That's right, you're punching vampires so hard they disintegrate.
38:02The combat is fast, brutal, and wildly fun, with a mix of gunplay, melee, and enough lightning-powered punches to make Thor jealous.
38:11The story is exactly as ridiculous as it sounds, and that's what makes it great.
38:15It's dumb fun in the best way, like Doom but with cowboys and fangs.
38:19If you love action games, Evil West is the kind of over-the-top insanity you absolutely need in your life.
38:29And here are you protecting?
38:30I don't know.
38:50If relationship counseling in a Pixar movie had a baby, it would be It Takes Two.
39:05This game forces you and a co-op partner, probably your best friend or your soon-to-be
39:08ex if you argue too much, to work together through a completely unhinged world.
39:14You play as a couple on the verge of divorce who get magically transformed into tiny dolls,
39:18and now you have to fix your relationship while also surviving murder hornets, sentient vacuums,
39:23and a deeply unsettling stuffed elephant situation.
39:27Every level introduces wildly different mechanics.
39:30One moment you're shooting nails, the next you're flying a plane made out of underwear.
39:34It's chaotic, hilarious, and honestly one of the most fun co-op games ever made.
39:39Just remember, if your partner accidentally drops you off a ledge for the fifth time in
39:42a row, it's probably not an accident anymore.
39:48Hey, whoa!
40:14Life is strange is what happens when you mix teen drama, time travel, and a whole lot of
40:24emotions.
40:25You play as Max, a photography student who discovers she can rewind time, which sounds
40:29super cool until you realize that every decision you make is still somehow the wrong one.
40:34The game is all about choices, and let me tell you, you will regret all of them.
40:39Should you save a friend, expose a secret, water a plant?
40:44That last one actually matters, and if you don't, you'll feel really bad about it later.
40:48The story is beautiful, the soundtrack is indie perfection, and the characters are so well
40:52written that you'll be emotionally destroyed by the end.
40:56Life is strange is a game that makes you feel things, and then punches you in the heart for
41:00good measure.
41:02Just be prepared to stare at the screen in silence when the credits roll, questioning every life
41:06choice you've ever made.
41:11I am, or who you're messing around with.
41:13Where'd you get that?
41:14What are you doing?
41:15Come on, put that thing down!
41:16Don't ever tell me what to do!
41:18I'm so sick of people trying to control me!
41:22You are going to get in hella more trouble for this than drugs.
41:25Nobody would ever even miss your punk ass, would they?
41:28Get that gun away from me, psycho!
41:30No!
41:31If Uncharted is like an action movie, then Rise of the Tomb Raider is like Bear Grylls on
41:47steroids.
41:48This is Lara Croft's best adventure yet, packed with more danger, explosions, and ancient mysteries
41:53than ever before.
41:54You'll be climbing mountains, raiding tombs, and somehow surviving things that would absolutely
41:58kill a normal human.
42:00And let's talk about the survival mechanics.
42:03Lara is out here crafting arrows from dead animals, fighting bears with a knife, and just
42:07generally proving she's tougher than all of us combined.
42:10The combat is smooth, the exploration is addictive, and the story is genuinely engaging.
42:16It's like Indiana Jones, but way more hardcore.
42:19Plus, you can spend hours just hunting and collecting resources like you're preparing
42:22for the apocalypse.
42:24If you haven't played this yet, fix your life immediately.
42:26Lara Croft deserves better from you.
42:29Yes!
42:32And that's a wrap, folks.
42:46If you haven't played these 30 linear masterpieces yet, well, now you have no excuse.
42:50Go grab a controller, ignore your responsibilities, and prepare to have your brain melted, your heart
42:55stolen, and maybe your sanity questioned a little.
42:58Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit that bell so I can keep ruining your free time with
43:02more must-play chaos.
43:03Until next time, game hard, laugh harder, and remember, linear never looked this good.
