!RecommendAGame@indie-ver.se

This is a brand new community for you to share your thoughts, reviews and impressions on indie games you’ve recently played. Conversely, you can also discover cool games based on the recommendations of other users!

We’re still working on getting things set up (rules, sidebar etc.)

  • You should have actually played the game you are writing about. Discussing newly announced games belongs in !news@indie-ver.se
  • Posts should be your writing. They can be a text post or a link to an external blog or YouTube video that you made, but don’t post IGN articles
  • Your post should be more in-depth that just “this game is great!”. Why is it great? What parts of it are not so great? What kind of person would also enjoy this game?
  • While not a hard requirement, the more unknown the game you are talking about, the better! We don’t nescessarely need any posts about what incredible hidden gems Stardew Valley, Celeste and Vampire Survivors are.

    Do you have a metric of what would count as an obscure indie game? Like, number of reviews or something? Or is the rule just to avoid the big ones like Stardew Valley?

    I’ve played Tchia, Coral Island, and My Time at Sandrock recently, and they feel like middle of the road as far as indies go. MTaS and Coral Island both had successful kickstarters. Would they count?

    Sorry, this kind of thing is difficult for me to judge.

      I think those absolutely qualify! It’s really just the super big hitters that everyone has already heard of that I don’t think would be useful.
