The new game releases this week get real weird. Once Two Point Museum is out of the way early in the week, the games either break conventions, like with Carmen Sandiego, or they play with familiar genres, like whatever FragPunk is doing as a hero shooter. Close your eyes and try to land on something normal in the list below — you can’t!
Two Point Museum is our rock, a management sim about being a museum curator. There’s nothing abnormal about that. That is, unless everything comes alive when the lights go off. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen. Not long after, Knights in Tight Spaces will bring you a card-battling game where medieval knights brawl. I don’t remember that in history class. And then there’s Everhood 2, a game that looks like someone left Undertale in the fridge too long. When a game promises to let you “discover the color of your soul,” you know you’re in for something you haven’t seen before.
Here are our most anticipated game releases for the week of March 3.
