Nips makes a return with his video review of Outer Wilds, a time-based space exploration game full of knowledge-based puzzles and excitement. Unlike many other modern adventure games, Outer Wilds is noteworthy for its willingness to completely let go of the player’s hand, asking them to solve the puzzles and mysteries of this strange universe.
