If you liked Return of the Obra Dinn, and especially if you were into it but it was maybe a little too much detective work for you to keep track of, I highly highly recommend The Case of the Golden Idol. It's a detective game where you investigate crime scenes and try to reconstruct what happened, similar to Obra Dinn's filling out of the ship manifest through inference. But the puzzles are a little smaller scope, and it's all 2D. It is SO GOOD.

@darius I really like Return of the Obra Dinn but it’s hard for me to resurrect my place since I can only play at long intervals. Excited to look in to this!

@darius That sounds like a lot of fun! Will have to write that one down for once I'm back home ^^
