Untitled Goose Game

Won: D.I.C.E. Award

Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch

Untitled Goose Game was a surprise hit in 2019. Indie studio House House released the game to little fanfare but it quickly became a viral sensation. This was in large part due to its quirky premise, which involved putting players in charge of an annoying goose.

At its heart, it is a puzzle game that forces players to use stealth, quick wit, and cunning. The ultimate goal is to just cause as much mayhem in a charming English village as possible. This can involve stealing items from the inhabitants, locking them away inside buildings, or just breaking their belongings.

Full of humor and a distinct lack of violence, Untitled Goose Game is a fun game for players of all ages to enjoy.

The Outer Worlds

Won: Destructoid, New York Game Awards

Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch

Obsidian Entertainment has a reputation for creating brilliant RPGs. They have worked on franchises such as Fallout, Knights of the Old Republic, and Pillars of Eternity. The latest effort from the studio is The Outer Worlds, a futuristic sci-fi role-playing set on distant planets. Essentially, it takes the Fallout formula and blasts it into space.

The end result is a game that is actually far superior to the most recent Fallout games. The Outer Worlds is an RPG that is full of compelling characters, interesting companions, and intriguing worlds to explore. Although relatively short, it is packed with replay value thanks to the different ways you can approach every scenario.
