Which indies did you discover and would love more people to know about? I’ll start: The Pale Beyond. Not sure if it’s a hidden gem tbh, but it’s such a good story rich game. I laughed, I cried and felt the characters struggles. If you like story rich games/ choices matter, check it out.
Hypnospace Outlaw is hilarious and perfectly captures the weirdness of the early Internet.
Also don’t forget to talk to your kids about the dangers of shonking.
