Our analysis
Visually distinctive isometric RPG with exceptional world design and storytelling. Lived-in depressing beauty.
Our analysis
An ambitious RPG with mesmerizing writing and inventive systems that let you deeply inhabit a character. Its limited meaningful choices and disappointing mystery ending frustrate, but the overall experience remains an innovative instant classic.
Our analysis
A phenomenal, genre-raising RPG and an evolution of 90s point-and-click adventures, offering unmatched freedom: 24 skills, thought-cabinet personality shaping, clothing stats, and dialogue choices that let you become almost anyone, with decisions that genuinely matter. The writing is excellent and often laugh-out-loud funny, though the sheer volume of text and slow burn will deter players who dislike reading. A standout that sets the bar very high for future RPGs.
Our analysis
Densely intelligent fiercely written work of art; Planescape Torment meets Fear and Loathing.
Our analysis
A must-buy with phenomenal voice acting, sharp humor and varied replayability; only ~75% of dialogue is voiced.

Ragnar considers Disco Elysium the best cRPG he has ever played, surpassing classics like Planescape: Torment, Fallout: New Vegas, and Bloodlines. He praises its ability to feel like playing a tabletop RPG with an actual Dungeon Master, with exceptional writing, complex branching narratives, and meaningful skill checks that make failure entertaining rather than punishing.
