Finally. We're here. The Number One game in our Top 10 Best Games of 2019, as presented on Day 10. This is a fun list for us, and one we feel privileged to share given the access to games, developers and more we get as one of not just Australia's oldest and longest-running online gaming destinations, but in the world.

So, who took out the crown?

One Jesse Faden, one astral-shifting pistol and one hell of a story wrapped in infectious gameplay in a game-world we would happily get lost in, if it was real. Creepy as it might be. Here's a snippet from our final entry:

Remedy has spent its time as a developer centred almost solely on story, matched by our interactive medium’s ability to break through passive walls; crafting gameplay, and gameplay loops, that feed this slithering narrative, wriggling this way and that. And in Control, the studio has offered up its greatest masterclass in combining storytelling and interactivity.

If you haven’t walked the halls, corridors, cafeterias, offices… et al, of The Oldest House yet, in the shoes of protagonist, Jesse Faden, you’re a monster...

Congrats to the cats at Remedy and to the greenlighting cats at 505 Games, playing Control was genuinely our pleasure.
