Mostly replaying older games this month. One new pickup is “Return of the Obra Dinn”, which looks pretty interesting. I think it will be (eventually) a fun puzzle to put together, but I’m not sold on the on-boarding process of being pushed from one memory to another. Kinda feels like the game is dictating the pace early on, and I feel like that could have been handled better. But I’ve heard enough good things about it that I expect I’ll enjoy it a lot by the end.

Hope you find it an enjoyable experience. Make sure you play with headphones.
I found Curse of the Golden Idol gave a similar hit as Return of the Obra Dinn.

Did you mean Case of the Golden Idol? Looking up Curse doesn’t bring up anything.

Yes, sorry. It is Case of the Golden Idol. Thanks for the correction.

I really enjoyed Outer Wilds, and Obra Dinn came up in some recommendations I read based on that. While it’s true that the games share a limitation that you can only play them “properly” one time, they aren’t yet hitting the same itch for me.
Also grabbed Chants of Sennaar awhile back, which I think may be similar to Obra Dinn.

Nothing really hits the same as Outer Wilds unfortunately. I’ll second Curse of the Golden Idol as another game to check out. Similar to Obra Dinn, but I liked it better in some ways.
