Journey
Thatgamecompany’s breakout hit, Journey, is acclaimed for its atmosphere, aesthetics and soundtrack by Austin Wintory (who also composed for ABZU). It sees two players as robed figures, starting in the desert and advancing towards a large mountain. There’s no verbal communication, and you can only use a chime to progress forward or your scarf to fly for a short time. Failure to finish a section together connects you with other players. For all its brilliance with seamless multiplayer and atmosphere, Journey only takes a handful of hours to complete.
