3. Thomas Was Alone
Who knew it was possible to get so invested in the struggles of sentient quadrilaterals? Thomas was Alone accomplishes this impressive feat, through story-based puzzle solving and a very sassy narrator, who does an expert job of conveying the varying emotions and personalities of each character.
Thomas himself, an optimistic yet lonely rectangle, who craves company is a particular highlight, as he wholeheartedly believes his growing group of companions can escape their puzzling confines if only they can work together. Unfortunately, this is regardless of whether the other characters actually want to cooperate.
With a well-rounded story and familiar puzzle mechanics, this is a game suitable for any and every gamer.
