Two Falls (Nishu Takuatshina) took the first place for August. The game is developed by Unreliable Narrators, an independent video game studio from Quebec, Canada, who are creating narrative games with the goal of giving a voice to people that aren’t heard often enough.

Two Falls (Nishu Takuatshina) is a narrative-driven game that lets you live the intertwining journeys of Jeanne, a shipwrecked girl stranded far from the French colonies, and Maikan, a young Innu forced to travel west when his people are afflicted by a strange illness. The story takes place in the wilderness of 17th Century Canada and your choices will shape the respective paths of our two protagonists, but the actions of one may have consequences for the other.

2nd place: Backpack Hero by developer Jaspel. BACKPACK HERO is a fun, challenging and totally unique twist on your standard deck-building roguelike! Collect rare items, organize your backpack, storm the dungeons and vanquish your foes!

3rd place: was taken by COGNAC Online Multiplayer Photorealistic Metaverse by Cognac Ultimate Devs Team. Cognac is an online multiplayer TDM game with photo-realistic maps created using real-life environments.

4th place: Sclash by Bevel bakery. Sclash is a tense 2D plug’n play samurai dueling game where battles are won with a single swing of the blade.

5th place: Scarlet Hollow by Black Tabby Games. Scarlet Hollow is an immersive horror-mystery with sharp writing, impactful choices, and meticulously hand-drawn art from award-winning graphic novelist Abby Howard.

8th place: A World of Little Legends by Artimus. A World of Little Legends is “Minecraft layed flat” as someone described it. The game uses modern possibilities, yet wants to look like we have 90s games in our minds, but within a procedurally generated open world survival craft setting.

9th place: Hitori Kakurenbo Online by Infinite Thread Games. Social multiplayer based on the viral Hitori Kakurenbo japanese ritual. You play as the evil Doll or as one of the irresponsible teenagers that prepared the ritual in quick fun replayable games.
