Britt's Video Games of the Year 2024 "Favourites from 2024 and some rediscovered titles from years prior" 🗓️🎮 #GOTY

I feel like 2024 has been quite a personally interesting year when it comes to gaming. As my son is now almost four, I’m able to play games with him – sometimes co-op but mostly sharing a controller and helping each other out (he genuinely solved a puzzle that I was stuck on in Dungeons of Hinterberg), and whilst I’ve tried to introduce him to as many - suitable – games as possible, it’s been fun seeing which games catch his attention, so some of those I’ll be mentioning below.

Whilst I’ll be highlighting favourites from 2024, there’ll also be some rediscovered titles from years prior.

Europa Nintendo Switch Review 6.5/10 "Its visuals, charm and story do enough to lift it above average" 🌏 @EuropaGame #IndieGame #GameDev

Having seen the trailer and played the game, I can tell you right now that it's not possible to review Europa without mentioning Breath of the Wild, so I won't try. This game, like the aforementioned (Linked, you might say) Nintendo smash, is an open-worldy, puzzley platformer. 

The game has you play Zee, an android, as you explore the breath-taking views of the eponymous moon of Jupiter. You're guided through the journey by the voice of your deceased creator/father, who speaks to you through his journal, pages of which you gather as you progress.
