Legitimately one of the best games ever made. I've played quite a lot of video games and none are like Outer Wilds. Merely navigating the solar system and avoiding its hazards is challenging enough that it makes for very satisfying gameplay that tests your understanding of physics, without being unfair or too difficult. Solving the puzzles, and the game itself which is essentially one big puzzle, is the uncontested most satisfying thing in gaming history and gives you feelings of eureka like no other.

The only negative I can give for the game is that you can't replay it until you get dementia. The gameplay and progression revolves entirely around your understanding of the world and its rules. The game is in your head, more than it is on a save file, but that's also what makes it so brilliant
