Mastodon! I'm in need of a really good game, something I can justify sinking time into, so I'm not staring at code, or Adobe, or Word, or just about anything related to art or work. Any interesting titles out there?

As a guide, I'm always intrigued by a good art game / walking sim, platformer, strange mechanics, but I'm really just want to hear what's engaging people at the moment. Usually very selective with what I play, so I can miss things.

@richardacarter My current biggest time sink is Return to Moria, but I just really like building little dwarf buildings (and as a Tolkien nerd, I think tonally it's one of the best game adaptations I've seen). I'm considering another BG3 run as well.

Some games from recent years I always recommend in case people haven't come across them: Wildermyth is nice and has interesting generative stories, Roadwarden has just generally gorgeous writing, the pixel art and world-setting in Arco is stunning.
