It's like a book club, but for games. 🎮 The Beautiful Games Club is a community for people who love games that move you — emotionally, visually, creatively. Each episode, we pick a game that deserves some extra special attention and explore it together, one beautiful game at a time. For episode 2, we're talking about Poco [https://store.steampowered.com/app/3454610/Poco/] - a 2025 indie gem from student developers Whalefall. We investigate balloon animal murders, join a band, and spend way too long trying to catch a very tricky fish. With its gorgeous hand-drawn 2D world, charmingly nostalgic 3D character models, and a soundtrack we honestly can't stop thinking about, Poco is the kind of game that makes you wonder how a student team pulled it off (and then makes you a little annoyed that they did it this well). Oh, and did we mention it's COMPLETELY FREE So. Is Poco a beautiful game? ⚠️ FULL SPOILERS for Poco (2025) throughout. Listen with caution if you haven't played!

What makes a game beautiful? - Neva (2024)

It's like a book club, but for games. 🎮 The Beautiful Games Club is a community for people who love games that move you — emotionally, visually, creatively. Each episode, we pick a game that deserves some extra special attention and explore it together, one beautiful game at a time. For our very first episode, we're diving into Neva - the stunning 2024 action-platformer from Nomada Studio, published by Devolver Digital. We talk about what it means to become a mother, battle Studio Ghibli-inspired monsters, and sit with a story that genuinely breaks your heart. We also explore the newly released Neva: Prologue DLC and discuss what it adds to an already incredible experience. So - is Neva the perfect game to open our search for beautiful games? We think you already know the answer. ⚠️ FULL SPOILERS for Neva (2024) and the Neva Prologue DLC throughout. Listen with caution if you haven't played!
