Now Playing: Overwatch, SNES Games, Banjo-Kazooie, And More From The Nintendo Direct - GS News Update

Last year, GameSpot picked Return of the Obra Dinn as one of the best games of 2018. In reviews editor Kallie Plagge, "Best known for 2013's Papers, Please, developer Lucas Pope has a knack for crafting memorable and evocative games that engage your deductive reasoning. His latest game, Return of the Obra Dinn, once again puts you in an administrative role--you're an insurance adjuster for the East India Company in the early 19th century--and tasks you with identifying who or what a person is based on limited information. In this case, you have to discover the fates of all 60 crew members and passengers aboard the Obra Dinn, which was lost at sea only to drift back to harbor several years later with no one on board alive."
