I can't remember a game (other than maybe the Mass Effect trilogy) that fed my inner space-nerd as masterfully, as Outer Wilds did. Whereas Mass Effect was a great story of humankind in the future, with familiar conflicts, characters and locations to explore, Outer Wilds throws all that away and gives you what space probably would feel like to us: hostile, unknown and incomprehensible. Who regularly reads recent developments in the understanding of our universe, will find many of that concepts in this game beautifully interwoven in a subtly communicated, but heavy weighing story of survival in a universe, that seemingly does not want you to survive. The game constantly wows you, with scenery and music coalescing into the best video game moments of at least the last decade.
