Bramble is such great game. Esp for fans of Limbo, Little Noghtmares, and somehow A Plague Tale

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Ah just watched, that's a lovely video!

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Likewise! Hadn't seen it but it was heartwarming to watch.

pvbuk.bsky.social•30 days ago

It was great fun testing it. 😎
Tried to make maps of all the paths and shortcuts, but it just looks like someone scribbled all over it. 🤪

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Haha! Appreciate your work :)

pvbuk.bsky.social•30 days ago

Several different versions, before I gave up:

Adding Reka and Mirthwood

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Appreciate the forest based recs! Need to play both.

seamusheaney.bsky.social•30 days ago

Chants of Senaar is amazing and me feel like an idiot and super smart at the same time.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

This is probably the best description I've seen of this game lol

seamusheaney.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yes! Also the story beats were just enough to keep me playing and the ending felt genuinely magical. Loved it.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

True. Once it click and give meaning to the hieroglyphs the feeling is unparalleled! Glad you did.

lazerfx.co.uk•31 days ago

Bramble snuck up on me... Brilliantly well written. Go in blind for best effect... Fantastic.

banjosbackpack.bsky.social•31 days ago

Bramble was such a weird experience and clearly has flaws, but when my wife discovered it and urged me to play, I found that I'm still really glad I did. It was pretty fascinating and some parts were damn awesome.

andresplays.bsky.social•31 days ago

Fully agree with this.

adderblack39.bsky.social•30 days ago

Throw Tinykin in there too

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yessir Tinykin is fun!

nexusgoblin.bsky.social•31 days ago

Blossom Tales is so good!!

andresplays.bsky.social•31 days ago

Fellow Blossom Tales enjoyer! Fantastic game indeed

ksco.bsky.social•31 days ago

andresplays.bsky.social•31 days ago

rstvideo.bsky.social•31 days ago

Great. Thanks for this.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Anytime :) there's more on the horizon if you ever want more recs!

rstvideo.bsky.social•30 days ago

Oh definitely mate. I’m pinning this one so I remember to go back to it.

If you fancy any indie game podcasts, IndieVenture and Short Game pods are really great. I’ve found some great games via those.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

I'll give them a listen for sure! Thanks for the recs and glad the list helped.

misajoy.bsky.social•30 days ago

More people need to play Crow Country! 🐦‍⬛

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

They do!! It's one I'll continue to champion. Ah so fun.

cheyennegames.bsky.social•31 days ago

@krystineart.bsky.social recommended Bramble: The Mountain King to me because she knows how much I love gnomes, and gosh that was such a neat game. I enjoyed the heck out of it.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Krystine has fantastic taste! Glad you enjoyed it. It haunted me for a good few weeks lol

krystineart.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yay im so glad you like it! That game is truly a gem! 😍

Awesome list Andres! Indie games are the best ever 🖤🖤

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

They are 💜

bornformedia.bsky.social•30 days ago

Both the content and shape of this lineup are just perfection

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

I wholeheartedly thank you for taking notice :)

discocola.bsky.social•30 days ago

I have played a majority of these and have plans to play most of the rest! Nice list!

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Appreciate it! Glad you are a fellow indie enjoyer :)

discocola.bsky.social•30 days ago

Lol. It is basically my whole 'thing.' And same to you!

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Thanks for the recs! All are welcome.

bigtime1224.bsky.social•29 days ago

Yes on both Blossom Tales games. Both awesome.

andresplays.bsky.social•28 days ago

They really are

bigtime1224.bsky.social•28 days ago

I got the first one because I was like oh, this looks Link To The Past and I had some extra money to spend. I absolutely loved it. I got the second, knowing that sometimes sequels rarely live up to the first, but was amazed by how good it was too.

andresplays.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yeah, honestly it is not easy at all to recapture that magic but they did it wonderfully. I am hoping to see more from that studio as well!

bigtime1224.bsky.social•28 days ago

Yeah. I play a lot of indie games but those really hooked me in by cute and well-written homages to the early Legend Of Zelda games.

bigtime1224.bsky.social•28 days ago

Also, hoping maybe someday a third because of how much I loved the first two but it's ok if it never happens.

wildbergerrrr.bsky.social•31 days ago

BRAMBLE IS INCREDIBLE I COULDNT SING ITS PRAISES ENOUGH 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

BRAMBLE IS SO GOOD. It blew me away!

praetorzeno.bsky.social•30 days ago

I had Bramble on Game Pass but didn't play it before it left :(

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Hope you can get it on sale then :) well worth it

kanaratron.bsky.social•30 days ago

What a lovely list to be a part of!

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Mythwrecked will always be on my rotation to recommend now as you can see. Lovely to have it!

findthestrawberry.com•29 days ago

Excellent list. I think Caravan Sandwitch is my next to-play! Toem is my favourite on the list.

andresplays.bsky.social•29 days ago

Yay thanks!! I love Toem as well. Enjoy Caravan Sandwitch.

bobbyjack.me•30 days ago

I approve of this ordering

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Definitely going to have to check out some others on this list

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Glad you've played those. Some adventures that truly stick with you on the long run right?! Hope you find something you like.

the-elisabeth.bsky.social•31 days ago

Chants of Sennaar 🩶

sireofsorrows.bsky.social•30 days ago

Outer Wilds and Firewatch should be on the list!

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Of course! Only so many characters in a post haha. Love both.

chad2pt0.bsky.social•31 days ago

The aesthetics of this list are perfect

andresplays.bsky.social•31 days ago

Much appreciated Chad. I like structure

rossvarner.bsky.social•31 days ago

Tell me more about Blacktail. That one interested me and I’d forgotten about it until just now.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Blacktail, such a great vibe of a horror folk tale. First person, 8 to 10 hour playthrough. Well worth your time. A morality system. I honestly should replay it. What a hidden gem.

Any Tequila Works games?

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

They closed 😭 but I always wanted to play Gylt!

I know....but you can still pick it up 🥲

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

I will :)

gratzasaurus.bsky.social•30 days ago

Bramble was very good! I didn't like the gnome thing but the rest of the game was amazing. Try Max and the Curse of Brotherhood. My son and I loved that game. It's challenging but not difficult, we'll done.

andresplays.bsky.social•30 days ago

Oh yeah a great classic! There were some weird and special moments in there.

liketobebossy.bsky.social•31 days ago
