Transcript

3 must play indie games dropped today! And the third one is officially my new game of the year. Restory is a new cozy game where you repair and refurbish old electronics. And there is just something so gratifying about this experience. Let's see, will come to your stall with their old devices asking you to clean or fix them. The motherboard is fried. And you'll take them apart piece by piece, dusting everything off and replacing faulty parts. Consoles, cameras, all set to this lo-fi soundtrack that kind of just teleports you to another headspace for a little bit. Iron Nest Heavy Turret Simulator is this sim game where you'll operate a huge heavy artillery machine. This thing has a ton of moving parts and it's up to you to keep everything operational. You'll receive orders, make map measurements and calculations and hope to God your shot lands where you're aiming. The game's recent Steam Next Fest demo was highly praised across the board. And if you're into high pressure sims where you're in control of pretty much everything around you, you're gonna want to play this. And I've put nearly 20 hours into Sovereign Tower and it's officially my new game of the year. If you loved the gameplay elements of Dispatch last year, that's basically what this game is, except it goes so much deeper. Essentially you're the new sovereign of this magical tower and you'll recruit knights into your round table to help you carry out the requests from the people of the kingdom. You'll analyze the needs of each request and send knights on these missions depending on the skills they bring to the table. The game can change wildly based on your decisions and the outcomes of your knights' missions. And on top of that, the art and the music here are both beautifully done. This is an absolute must play this year. Are you checking any of these out?
