The 20 Best Video Games of 2019 So Far
Which games impressed professional reviewers the most during the first half of the year? Above, we rank the best-reviewed videogames released between January 1, 2019 and June 30, 2019 by Metascore. If a game was released on multiple platforms, we included only the version receiving the largest total number of reviews (usually, but not always, the PS4 version). Newly released ports of games released in prior years on other platforms are excluded, unless they are substantially different from the prior release.
A point-and-click adventure from Artifex Mundi, Irony Curtain features a story of espionage set during a completely fictional Cold War era. Critics loved the game's abundant humor.
“If you are a fan of point-and-click RPG, hilarious storytelling, or you would like to try a point and click for the first time, then you really can’t go past this game. It is brilliantly written, carefully designed and put together; and most of all, seriously brilliant satire.” —Impulsegamer
