From Baldur's Gate 3 to Sea of Stars, 2023 was a year packed with some of the best PC games around. But amid highlights like Diablo 4, Lethal Company, and the Resident Evil 4 Remake, you might have missed the fantastic Chants of Sennaar, an indie game from developer Rundisc. Rated an 'overwhelmingly positive' 98% on Steam from almost 12,000 Steam user reviews and a personal favorite of mine, you can now play it at no additional cost if you're a subscriber to PC Game Pass.

Nothing about Chants of Sennaar says "nostalgia" at first glance. It's a puzzle adventure game with an on-trend art style of high contrast, bright colors, and beautiful lighting and water effects. But it's taken me back to the '90s more effectively than any self-styled "retro" game in years... Read more.

This year, I did a bit of personal respeccing of my gaming habits and focused hard on cozy games. Like so many of us, I still love games like Stardew Valley and have given plenty of other farm sims or life sims or "casual" games a try in between Stardew sessions. But the label "cozy" really took off this year—video content creators are using it in their recommendation videos, players are using it amongst ourselves to search for new games to try, and marketing teams are starting to catch on too. So I planted myself in the cozy corner more officially than I had in the past... Read more.
