It's been a fairly uninspiring year for me a few things have stood out though.

1) It Takes Two - feels like a coop pixar movie, played it with my kids and it was a fantastic experience to share with them.
2) Inscryption - deck builder, rogue like with a horror feel to it. Usually dislike both of these genres but this really hooked me.
3) Valheim - great atmosphere and multiplayer experiences

Ive just started this with my daughter. Its wonderful. Its very rare (for me) to find a game that I have as much fun playing as my kids do.

Deathloop for me was the best game this year.

Really enjoyed it.

Is this a two player game only?

I've only really played Battlefield and Far Cry 6. Neither has me "blown away" as such (BF is pretty good but basically par the course for BF, some lovely graphics and huge maps etc mind...

I don't think I played any 2021 releases this year; but the best game I played for the first time this year was Telltale's The Walking Dead series - really pulled me in and the final season was *chef's kiss*. Otherwise, aside from Snowrunner which I got into at the start of the year and am still playing just now, it was mostly repeat play-throughs for me.
