GameClub 3 - Pick our next game! (Patreon)

Hello everyone! Welcome to the third GameClub - a community event where like-minded game fans, game designers, and game critics can get together and dive deep into a single game.

The rules are simple: we pick a game, play it, and then chat about it. Most of the discussion happens on Discord where you can chat without spoilers for a few weeks, and then jump in and really analyse every aspect of the game after that.

This time, I’ve picked five interesting games from the Steam Sale. The sale runs until July 5th so we’ve got some time to pick the game before the discount runs out.

Have a look at these games, and use the Patreon poll below to vote for the one that looks most interesting to you.

I’ll be back in a couple days with the winner.
