Winner: I Was A Teenage Exocolonist

If you’re a good fit for Exocolonist‘s hyper-online writing style, you’ll love digging into the visual novel’s dozens of hours of conversations and nearly 30 endings. It certainly has a point of view and isn’t afraid to preach about it. Still, we think its merits far outweigh its flaws, and it’s worth your time and attention. That earns it our PC Game of the Year 2022 award!

Cult of the Lamb

Publisher Devolver Digital’s catalog is so chock-full of games with style and attitude that sometimes it’s tough to keep up! But Cult of the Lamb, from developer Massive Monster, still manages to stand out. Engaging mechanics! A signature character! Its particular charms have developed it a, well, cult following, and with good reason.

Signalis

Horror adventure Signalis crafts narrative moments with clear influence from other tales in the genre, but does it with its own personality and style. And it rewards playing through again and again, revealing new secrets as you further explore its world. For more on the game’s particular charms, read Kazuma’s review.
