1) Nubby’s Number Factory
Nubby’s Number Factory is a plinko-style roguelike strategy game developed by MogDogBlog Productions and released in March 2025. In the game, the player controls a factory where Nubby, a living ball, must be launched onto a pegboard to produce successively higher numbers. Each peg is worth a different amount, and the rounds require a certain point threshold to proceed. It includes a shop where the player can purchase upgrades, as well as a perk system. The game is a bit unusual in appearance and concept, but it’s good for hours of mindless fun and is incredibly addictive.
2) The Beekeeper’s Picnic
Afoot Games’ The Beekeeper’s Picnic is a point-and-click adventure game, reminiscent of the genre’s best from the 1990s. The game is set in a small village called Fulworth in the 1920s and centers on Helen “Jabbage” Greetham. It’s based on Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes novels, and features a retired Holmes as well as Dr. Watson. When Homes decides to host a surprise picnic for Watson, a series of seemingly connected mysteries upsets his plans. The Beekeeper’s Picnic includes a series of puzzles that must be solved to advance. They have multiple solutions and outcomes, so each playthrough is often different from the last.
3) A Game About Digging a Hole
In what has to be the most apt title in video game history, A Game About Digging a Hole is about … digging a hole. Of course, it’s more than that, but it starts that way. Cyberwave developed the game, which focuses on the player who is all about digging the biggest hole they can. As this happens, the player uncovers ores they can sell to a barn, allowing them to purchase upgrades, explosives, and a jetpack. It uses randomly-generated ores, so every playthrough is unique, and it only took two weeks to design. Despite the ridiculously short time invested in its creation, A Game About Digging a Hole has become wildly popular, selling more than a quarter of a million copies upon its February 2025 release.
