Rue Valley looks set to be a standout title. In a year already brimming with exceptional RPGs, this time loop mystery promises a captivating narrative set in a surreal motel in the American Southwest. Its release is just around the corner, confirmed to hit the shelves on November 11.

The recently unveiled trailer highlights three possible character ‘builds’ for Mr. Harrow, the protagonist caught in the loop:

1. A neurotic character who investigates everything, reminiscent of Rust Cohle from True Detective but without the charisma.
2. A moody type who approaches situations slowly yet attentively, akin to Harry from Disco Elysium.
3. A rebellious figure, labeled as a ‘bastard Harrow’ in the trailer, who embodies chaos.

Rue Valley not only stands out because of its unique mechanics but also because it received accolades from the creators of Disco Elysium, sparking high expectations for its full release. You can wishlist the game on platforms like Steam, GOG, or Epic Games.
