- Tim Stone s favourite games of 2017 - 26 December 2017
We asked a handful of our contributors to put together a list of their three favourite games from 2017 . Their picks are running across the week while the rest of RPS slumbers. Having just re-read all 51 of this year’s Flare Paths carefully noting when and where words like ‘lovely’, ‘compelling’ and ‘clever’ were used, I now know for sure what my Favourite Games of 2017 are. It turns out that although Tank Warfare: Tunisia is 55% ‘lovelier’ than Steel Division: Normandy , Diesel Railcar Simulator is 113% ‘nicer’ than Train Sim World , and Venti Mesi is 33% ‘more memorable’ than Way of Defector , none of them have quite enough ‘magic’, ‘charm’ and ‘personality’ to displace the three evening-eaters described below.
