　　It's hard to believe, but Ubisoft's Watch Dogs is nearly six years old at this point. The 2014 game starring hacker Aiden Pearce earned an 8/10 in GameSpot's Watch Dogs review. If you haven't played it, Watch Dogs offers a fun, modern take on Ubisoft's well-known open-world blueprint and serves as a nice jumping off point to the far bolder and better Watch Dogs 2. The third game in the series Watch Dogs: Legion doesn't have a release date yet, but it will take the series in an even more ambitious direction thanks to its wildly inventive NPC system.

　　Originally a Half-Life 2 mod, Davey Wreden's The Stanley Parable was turned into a standalone game in 2013 and quickly became one of the most talked-about indie games around. A walking simulator with no combat or action to speak of really, the game stars a silent protagonist who must make decisions on which route to take in an office building with the help of a narrator. The Stanley Parable is one of those games that's better enjoyed with as little background information as possible. If you haven't played it, you should absolutely give it a go. It earned a 9/10 in GameSpot's The Stanley Parable review. Afterward, you should check out Wreden's follow-up, The Beginner's Guide, which is similarly experimental and equally thought-provoking.
