The best of the best
It’s episode five ofIndiescoveryand we’d like our listeners to get to know us a little better, so this week we picked our ultimate favourite indie games and then had a big old natter about them. Talking aboutallour favourite games would take us into 3023, so we’ve kept it to two games per person, which actually wasn’t as hard as we thought it would be.

Episode Notes
The first of our picks isParadise Killer, Liam’s first choice, a murder mystery about gods and demons set on a tropical island dripping in vaporwave aesthetics. Even though she’s not played it, Paradise Killer isvery mucha Rebecca game (it’s basically a match made in indie game heaven) so Liam and I will keep poking her until she plays it.
Rebecca’s next pick isFirewatch, and wow did she almost have Liam and me in tears talking about it. The feels were out when we were chatting about this one, as we get into the game’s brilliant characters, lovely visuals, and heartwarming themes. I’m not crying, you are.
The last of our six games isKentucky Route Zero, which was my pick. God, I love this game, and when choosing my two games for this episode I didn’t hesitate in choosing KRZ. A magical realist adventure, this American road trip follows a group of drifters as they search for an ethereal highway that runs through an underground cave system beneath Kentucky. It’s a little weird, but also perfect (in my humble opinion).

The squad then quickly list off other indies that crossed our minds when choosing our six (some of which we’ll definitely get into in future eps), before diving into our hyperfixations. I’ve been watching hours and hours of the RPG showDimension 20, Liam has been watchingBrutalmoose’s calming mall and microwave meal reviews, and Rebecca introduced us to mushroom ketchup, which soundsamazing?? Did you know that mushroom ketchup existed? Every day is a school day, apparently.
