From the writer of The Stanley Parable, this is a comedy narrative game that plays with the conventions of game design in ways that are genuinely funny rather than merely clever. It takes about fifteen minutes. The offline credentials are flawless. It missed the top ten only because The Supper covered the short-form slot and goes slightly darker and more replayable. If you finish this list and want one more thing before closing Steam, Dr. Langeskov is that thing. I sat with it on a slow afternoon and laughed out loud twice. For something that short, that counts.
