1. Dreams

This might end up being the defining game of the generation. Like, yes we've got God of War, The Witcher 3, MGS 5 and Zelda: Breath of the Wild, but Dreams fundamentally unravels the very fabric of what video games even are.

At time of writing it's still in early access, but that amounts to the entire creative suite of software, hours of tutorials and access to the community's uploaded games, level assets, pieces of music etc.

Although you can treat this as a Mario Maker-style deluge of pure creativity; seeing what the world would come up with if given access to programming tools, you can also spend hours understanding how every game you've ever played once came together.

It's genuinely fascinating working out how level triggers, A.I. scripts and even the most subtle animations all connect to one another to work in harmony; to create a video game.

No other title, documentary or interview will ever do the gaming industry justice quite like moulding the digital clay yourself, and for that, Dreams is exemplary.
