I\u2019ve personally never checked out the Europa Universalis series because I\u2019ve always been afraid to, thinking it would be too tough and hard-to-learn. Maybe with the fifth game in the series that has changed? A lot of people at Quarter to Three are pretty excited over that one. Since traditional point-and-click adventure games died a long time ago, I suspect that Syberia — Remastered will be threatening few wallets this week. I personally loved the original. Tom has already quit<\/a>, but he’s confessed that he’s not much of an adventure gamer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few years ago, I started wondering about this burgeoning “factory” genre. On the forum, I asked which game would be ideal to start getting into these games. Factorio? Satisfactory? Dyson Sphere? Shapez 2? The answer from most seemed to be to wait for 1.0 release of Satisfactory. And then when it was released, I started waiting for the console release. And this week I\u2019ll have no more excuse to wait any longer, since the console release of Satisfactory is finally here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what is it that what I\u2019m most excited about among this week\u2019s releases? Maybe it has to do with how much I\u2019ve been enjoying Farthest Frontier, a recent village building game, but the games that seem the most exciting to me are of the calmer zen variety, focusing on charm over challenge. There\u2019s a charming adventure game called A Pizza Delivery out this week. A coop sequel in Biped 2 about two robot having an adventure where each player controls both of the charming biped robots\u2019 limbs individually. A charming puzzle game called Puzzle Depot about pushing boxes. A charming platformer where you play as an egg in Egging On. And a lovely looking charming simulation about creating tiny, Japanese inspired garden dioramas in Dream Garden. What is threatening your wallets this week?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
