10 Reasons The Witcher 3 Truly Is Game Of The Year 2015

8. Gwent Is A Better Minigame Than Many Full Price Titles

The Witcher is a huge game, there is no denying that, and it€™s filled with a substantial amount of things to do. Despite this, CD Projekt RED still went the extra mile and included a game within the game that works on its own as an amusing distraction from the main storyline. Gwent is the popular card game that exists within the universe of The Witcher 3, and if you so desire, you can have Geralt spend a ridiculously large amount of time challenging other characters in the game and collecting newer, more powerful cards. It's surprisingly addictive and well thought out, and building your deck is very satisfying. You can literally spend entire afternoons on Gwent alone, traveling the world on your quest to build the perfect deck. In fact, Gwent has proven so popular that there is demand for the game in the real world, which is a testament to the amount of attention given to its creation. This sort of thing wasn€™t needed, yet the fact it was included anyway - and in such detail - makes a great game even better.
