It honestly fucks me up how good Ape Out is.

I love jazz. Like a lot. When I moved recently, vicinity to jazz clubs was, like, one of my top three metrics for choosing where to live. Of course, the Current Unpleasantness fucked that up for me, so something about hearing some dynamic, live(ish), excited, goddamn JAZZ filled me with so much joy.

And the gameplay here is delightful, so simple as to be easily understood, but with a tactility and forcefulness to it that makes it constantly delightful. It never didn't bring a smile to my face to hurl a guy straight into a wall or out of a window.

Ape Out rules. Everyone should play Ape Out.
