10 Awesome Games You Definitely Missed In 2024

10. Nobody Wants to Die

If, like most everyone else, you're impatiently waiting for the next BioShock, you can kill a few hours of that time with Nobody Wants to Die - a first-person narrative-driven noir adventure game set in a dystopian 24th century New York.

One of the most visually striking games released this year, this is a AA game with AAA production values, for though the investigative gameplay isn't doing anything especially original, the gorgeous visuals and enticing central serial killer hunt make for a consistently compelling ride.

To see such a slick and glossy game clock in at a modest 5-6 hours is so incredibly rare, which might also explain the game's fairly low profile since it launched back in July.

For many enticed by the game's marketing, which unsurprisingly focused on its stunning visuals, they may have wished it were a longer and more involved experience on the level of, say, a BioShock, which might explain its lack of staying power in the gaming conversation.

But for time-poor players who want to entrench themselves in a rich world for a breezy afternoon, it's just the ticket.
