The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!

The Steam Autumn Sale is upon us, and I got the biggest amount of games I’ve ever bought in a single sale: 50!

Let’s discuss UFO 50. What is your favorite game in the collection? What game did you spend most of your time on? What do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? Feel free to share anything that comes up and react to other comments. Let’s get the conversation going!

If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

    I think that is a bit the conceit of the collection: classic games in looks / features, but taking into account the progress that has been made in game design and mechanics. I actually prefer it this way, like an alternate timeline in which computers didn’t get more powerful and people were forced to iterate on ideas within these constraints.
