This puzzle roguelike has become the best game of the year so far, beating Split Fiction, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Blue Prince is an unexpe🐷c꧑ted game of the year contender

2025 has already been a stacked year for great gam♒es, but Blue Prince has blown them all out of the water and become the highest-rated game of the year so far.
With heavy-hitters such as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Split Fiction, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Monster Hunter Wilds, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xenoblade Chronicles X, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 dominating this year, I'm surprised a game I hadn't heard of until today has managed to bag the top spot. It's this year'꧟s highest-rated game on so far, and it's easy to see why.
Blue Prince is a puzzle and exploration game that takes place in a house with shifting rooms. It's like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dishonored 2's Clockwork Mansion level🐼 but turned into a full game. It borrows heavily from the Betrayal at House on the Hill board 💜game where you randomly add more rooms as you play. It also looks absolutely gorgeous with a cel-shaded style.

In our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Blue Prince review, Oscar Taylor-Kent writes, "This exploration 🦩roguelike is like nothing else I൲'ve played and became a puzzle obsession I just couldn't shake." As you venture through the house, which changes its layout every in-game day, "each time you clutch a doorknob you get a selection of three possible rooms to etch onto your blueprint." I can understand why this mechanic has so many reviewers excited about it.
's review states the objective of the game is to "find the estate's mysterious 46th room," but "this is harder than it sounds." It seems like Blue Prince is a game that's best approached with as 𒈔little foreknowledge as possible, though,🌳 as both TheGamer's and 's reviewers state they don't want to give anything away.
"I love Blue Prince so much I'm go🅘ing to spend the next 1,500 words o🧸r so telling you as little about it as possible," reads PC Gamer.
If you're not a fan of roguelikes bec𝔍ause you feel like your time isn't being respected when you lose quickly and have to start over, don't worry, because writes: "Almost any strategy is valid, and it's worth poring over every room to gather as much information as possible."
