Eugene’s Top 10 of 2019
There are a lot of games I didn’t manage to get to that are still on my “to play” list — frankly, there’s never enough time to get to them all. For every ‘big’ one I still want to get to, there’s an indie or two that are just as interesting and that same diversity of interest is reflected in the games I did pick for my 2019 list.
Candleman (Switch) Review
Burning Bright
HIGH Simplistic, yet smart mechanics.
LOW Occasionally frustrating platforming.
WTF The lighthouse.
AI: The Somnium Files Review
Burned Into My Memory

Low Significant amounts of oversexualization.
WTF 90% of the male characters are constantly horny.
