  • My two cents; I’m in a very similar boat with my GF, and Outer Wilds was unfortunately a bit too slow paced and open ended for her, so I ended up completing it by myself (and absolutely loving it). Same with The Witness unfortunately. Both are very much in my personal top three though.

    But to make it not all negative, some recommendations!

    We enjoyed The Room series by Fireproof Games a lot. It’s an escape room puzzle box type of a deal with a really cool, slightly creepy atmosphere, and there’s multiple games out already. The games are quite linear and focused, so my GF didn’t bounce off. We’re escape room junkies and haven’t found a better digital fix. Escape Room Simulator is decent, but not quite up there in production quality.

    Another fun one is the games by Rusty Lake. They’re mechanically similar, if a bit less flashy than The Room, but the puzzles are mostly fun and the story/atmosphere/music is really neat.

    And yeah, Obra Dinn is absolutely our number one favorite game, but that one was already mentioned.
