How we pick them
We compare the tags the Steam community gives each game with our own classification: what you do (action, story, building…), the difficulty, how long sessions last and whether you play alone or with others. Nobody pays to appear.
About Red Dead Redemption 2
Arthur Morgan, a member of an outlaw gang, lives through the end of the Wild West. A world detailed to an obsessive degree, a slow pace and one of the most human stories in the medium. Its slowness is part of the experience.
