It's Only Been 24 Hours, But I Can't Stop Thinking About Big Walk, the Brilliant Co-Op Hit
Sometimes a game releases that's so clever and innovative, it knocks you off your feet and reminds you of what is possible in an interactive medium. For me, that game is Big Walk ($19.99; reviewed on PC, also available on macOS, PlayStation 5, and Switch 2), the latest game from Australian indie developer House House. Unlike the team's viral hit, Untitled Goose Game, House House's latest venture focuses on teamwork, communication, and, dare I say, friendship.
