Quietly, over the course of the past decade, indie game developers have slowly been integrating vocal music into their works; creating lore, ephemeral tone pieces and eventually, full-on video game musicals. Let’s dive into some indie game musicals of the last decade!

While Backbone’s writing left a sense of disconnection between its characters and narrative themes, an unmatched artistic direction as well as a strong third act is worth the price of admission into this dark, dystopian retro future.

Kraken Academy is nuts, and it's proud to show it to you while making you laugh along with it. Later this year, Kraken Academy will be the next indie darling everyone will be talking about.

Umurangi Generation’s haunting narrative is exquisitely told purely by existing within the lush world Origame Digital has crafted. Paired with an engaging gameplay loop and bombastic score, its one you’ll never want to leave.

Blending a haunting aesthetic with grounded stories and an engaging gameplay loop, She Dreams Elsewhere is shaping up to be an indie darling that cannot be missed.

Godstrike is a tough boss-rush arena-shoot game that will either hook you or break you.

D’Avekki Studios’s Dark Nights with Poe and Munro is without a doubt an enjoyable supernatural hodge podge of ideas; some interesting, some not so much. While D’Avekki seems very aware of what they are making and don't stray away from it, a lot of what they try falls short.

Skate City delivers a simplistic entry level approach to the genre coupled with a can-do mentality and constant sense of fulfillment. However, this sense of fulfillment falls solely on the player to discover hidden features.

Many indies have found success with the Zelda formula, but even in its opening moments, Tunic sets itself apart by blending influences from another beloved genre.

Hitchhiker is a story told in the medium it was meant for. It’s peculiar, heavy at times, but lovely throughout without many dull moments. While gameplay isn’t king here, the gripping narrative is well worth the price of admission.

Cozy Grove draws many similarities to Animal Crossing, but with a unique twist. With this in mind, it bears the question: can Spry Fox’s new island adventure satisfy the passionate Animal Crossing fanbase?

Genesis Noir is a mixed bag of elements. Outside of the stunning aesthetic and presentation, the game doesn’t do much else cohesively.

3 Out of 10 is a fantastic sitcom-inspired adventure with a whimsical ensemble of characters that will keep you entertained throughout.

Mundaun is absolutely a quality product from beginning to end. Hidden Fields’ vision for a unique horror experience is completely realized, and it's quite the beautiful one at that.

Adios tells a superb heartbreaking story about a pig farmer, but unfortunately it is wrapped in a product that feels ultimately unfinished.

Everhood is a fantastic game that pushes the boundary of expectations in storytelling and rhythm games. It’s that unique piece of art that you can hardly describe, but can’t stop looking at.

With their debut title, Graceful Machine finds balance in eloquently tying intricate gameplay and modest narrative together with the theme of scale. Maquette is a dream for those seeking an intelligent and unique challenge, as well as those who wish to experience a purely human story.
