A very ambitious game with an interesting story in which you're a stranded archaeologist tasked with exploring a ruined city haunted by broken machines. If that seems like something you would like to play, give Niravasi a try - I was not a fan of its gameplay, but it's repetitive at worst and asks you to do some clever note-taking and shuffling around dark maps at best. The real draw is the story and atmosphere of the city which, while I won't spoil anything too big, is a bit reminiscent of some brutalist works such as the manga Blame! or the game NaissanceE. It's got a touch of horror, a lot of mystery and it feels great to explore.

I would absolutely recommend at least trying out Niravasi, since the prologue is quick to finish and you get into the real meat of the game way before the two-hour mark. There's nothing else quite like it!
