The format of these posts is simple: let's discuss a specific game or series!
Today (16th of April) is my birthday! So we're discussing my favorite game of all time (tied with Outer Wilds): Journey
What aspects do you like about it? What doesn't work for you? What are your favorite experiences in the game? Are there other games that gave you similar feelings? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples 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).

Got to play it with someone for a bit, they seemed to know where all the neat things were (iirc, the murals, scarf lengthening thingies, etc). But due to the inability to communicate more than just "dings" I couldn't convey that I needed a quick toilet break. They were gone after I came back, which was a bit sad but I probably wouldn't have stayed waiting either, tbh.
It was quite okay, I recall playing it through twice, but the second round didn't really offer much in terms of "value" over the first. Cool visuals and concept, though.
Other somewhat similar vibing games which I somewhat relate to Journey:
It was my understanding that the embroidery/pattern changes were based on how many times you had completed the game, but your point stands that it's easy to tell a first timer
