It’s that time of year again—EGX, and in particular, the Leftfield Collection, is here to captivate gaming enthusiasts. As someone who eagerly awaits this event, I am always drawn to the Leftfield Collection. It never fails to amaze me with its unique selection of indie games, each with their own interesting and unconventional controllers. From paper shredders to Morse code machines, this eclectic mix never fails to leave me in awe. What’s more, most of these games are fresh off the digital presses, making them even more exciting to explore. Join me as we take a closer look at the upcoming lineup for this year’s Leftfield Collection at EGX 2023.
From October 12th to 15th, the Excel center in London will transform into a haven for gamers. This event, organized by Reedpop UK, promises an unforgettable experience. While this article will mainly focus on the Leftfield Collection, rest assured that RPS, our beloved content creators, will have plenty in store for us as well. But enough about us, let’s delve into the world of indie games and explore what they have to offer.
Among the fantastic collection of games, one that stands out to me is Hermit And Pig. Its captivating artwork, which I’ve used as the header image for this article, immediately draws you in. This top-down adventure game gives off vibes reminiscent of Minit and Eastward. However, as the announcement trailer linked above reveals, there’s more to it than meets the eye. Prepare for a Dragon Quest-style turn-based RPG battle system. With such promising features, Hermit And Pig is undoubtedly a game to watch out for. I, for one, am eagerly anticipating further details as we approach the event in October.
Step into the world of Isles Of Sea And Sky, the spiritual successor to Link’s Awakening DX. This visually stunning game boasts Game Boy Color-inspired graphics that transport players to a nostalgic realm. However, it’s not just about aesthetics—Isles Of Sea And Sky leverages its enthralling trailer to showcase mind-bending puzzles. If you can’t wait until October, the game offers a demo on Steam and Itch, allowing you to immerse yourself in its captivating gameplay ahead of time.
