Our April games picks

Each month a slew of new games come to Play. To help you find ones you’ll love, we – the Play editors – are sharing our favorite recent releases. Our Spotlight title is a game that’s won our hearts with stunning visuals, intuitive gameplay, or pure simplistic fun – we know you’ll love our pick of the month.

Lose yourself in the monochrome townscapes and soothing puzzles of Linea. Draw lines of light to reconnect broken circuits and restore energy to homes, connecting with the town’s citizens and unraveling their heartfelt stories in the process. Each puzzle also has fireflies to collect – catch as many as you can to unlock photographs that reveal the story.

A peaceful puzzler with delightful themes of connection, Linea is a satisfying and thoughtful adventure.

Whether they amused, soothed, scared or tested us, these Highlights are an ensemble of our favorite games this month.

For those with an appetite for the alternative, the Indie Highlights collection presents this month’s best new Indie games on Play.
