A Year of Gaming’s Most Memorable Moments: "Wild Indika" and More

As we close out 2024, we’re reflecting on the most unforgettable experiences in gaming. Take Indika, a narrative adventure game that follows a nun’s journey as she’s drawn to the church, only to find herself connected to the Devil himself. On the surface, it sounds intriguing, but beneath the surface, there are moments that are both baffling and infuriating.

One standout example is a scene where Indika is tasked with retrieving pails of water. This means trudging back and forth through the slush, slowly lowering a bucket down a well, and then lugging it back up to a barrel, only to have it all reduced to nothing in an instant. The entire process can take up to 10 minutes, all of which is rendered meaningless when another nun simply dumps the barrel on the ground. It’s a masterclass in poor design decision-making, leaving players feeling utterly meaningless and belittled. The only response: laughter or tears.

But what about other memorable moments from 2024? We’re exploring the biggest video game stories of the year, including Star Wars: Outlaws and more. Check out our most-read stories from last year for a deeper dive into the world of gaming.
