Our Weekend’s Finest: Clair Obscure Expedition 33
Currently shining brightly on the gaming horizon is Clair Obscur, an up-and-coming RPG from France. This game has captured attention with its distinctive visual style, deeply moving narrative, and one of the most impressive soundtracks we’ve encountered this year. In fact, the score recently reached number one on Billboard’s Classical and Classical Crossover charts for the month.
“Once a year, the Paintress wakes and paints upon her monolith. Paints her cursed number. And everyone past that age turns to smoke and fades away. Year by year, that number ticks down and more of us are erased. Tomorrow she’ll wake and paint “33.” And tomorrow we depart on our final mission – Destroy the Paintress, so she can never paint death again.
We are Expedition 33.”
If you’re a fan of games similar to Final Fantasy IX or Lost Odyssey, you’ll find yourself quite comfortable in Clair Obscur. This game openly embraces its inspirations yet infuses a unique, dreamlike artistic flair into the genre. The blend of turn-based and real-time combat is seamless – it offers an incredibly smooth gaming experience, and its user interface seems to be inspired by Persona 5, which significantly elevated the standard for exceptional UI design.
Our Weekend’s Finest Indie: Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley
Over this weekend, I’m taking it easy with a delightful indie find – Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley. It’s a soothing journey packed with enchantment, melodies, and the warm, illustrated atmosphere of a classic storybook.
In this adventure, you take on the role of Snufkin, venturing to reestablish peace in Moominvalley using your harmonica, some sneaky moves, and aid from old friends. As you journey, you’ll encounter more than 50 peculiar characters, solve musical mysteries, and groove to a soothing soundtrack crafted by Sigur Rós.
If you’re into relaxing games with heart, this one’s for you.
That wraps up this week’s content! Thank you for joining us on The Weekend’s Finest. We look forward to seeing you again next Friday with more exciting reads!
