BEST SINGLEPLAYER
JAMES O’CONNOR
WHAT REMAINS OF EDITH FINCH
Because I can’t nominate Zelda, here’s a short narrative game that needs to be experienced alone (because it is, in part, about being alone). Tee up some people who will talk about it with you afterwards, then sit down and play it all the way through. KOSTA ANDREADIS
DIVINITY ORIGINAL SIN II
Same again. DAVID WILDGOOSE
ASSASSIN’S CREED ORIGINS
To be honest, I don’t think this is the best singleplayer experience of the year. But it certainly felt like it had the most singleplayer content of the year. DANIEL WILKS
THE SEXY BRUTALE
Saving lives by resetting a day and manipulating the environment is a solitary pursuit, but it’s one that makes me wish I could reset the day so I could play it for the first time again. JAMES COTTEE
LAWBREAKERS
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
