this thread is about to make my bank account cry ๐ญ
Factorio is nice
Understatement of the decade
i can stop anytime i want! ...i just don't want to stop...
there's a reason the community calls it cracktorio, lol
Lead dev of Ultrakill is Finnish and he said it's okay to pirate the game if you can't afford it
Soundtrack has some amazing tracks, too. Shame I get motion sickness from (fast) FPS.
I can second the soundtrack, which by the way you can get on Bandcamp.
I think this game has now an accessibility setting to slow it down? I'll have to verify it later
This War of Mine is made by a Ukranian team, and part of the proceeds go to helping with the war effort.
Valheim, with couple of friends it is one of the best games in decade. Done by swedish team iron gate and published by coffee stain which is also swedish.
Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 and 2 by Warhorse Studios - Czech
No Manโs Sky by Hello Games - UK
Planet Coaster 1 and 2 and Planet Zoo by Frontier Development - UK
Interesting question, here are some EU-made indie games I've enjoyed, in no particular order. I've had to look all of these up, I didn't play them because they were European or anything.
- Chants of Senaar (France)
- Dead Cells (France)
- Disco Elysium (Estonia)
- Drova (Germany)
- Monster Train (Netherlands)
- Roadwarden (Poland)
Not so indie:
Control Alan Wake games. Max Payne 1&2 (Remedy, Finland)
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall, France)
Satisfactory (Coffee Stain studios, Sweden)
Valheim (Iron gate, Sweden)
Control Alan Wake games. Max Payne 1&2 (Remedy, Finland)
Get it before the new (ex-EA) CEO turns the company into a husk of what it was becoming :\
I kind of hate how comfy their position as a new CEO is. Firebreak was horrible for the company and it was not made by the main dev team. Remedy is now finishing the Control 2 and there is talk about remastering Max Payne 1&2. Those projects are pretty much unfuckable at this point, so the new CEO gets all the praise how after the horrible launch of Firebreak they came amd saved the company. Only thing they need to do is to not torpedo the projects that are allready underwork.
Disco Elysium (Estonia)
The current state of that dev team is...contentious to say the least. If I recall correctly three different studios have spawned, none on good terms with the others. Good game, though.
Don't know if it qualifies as an indie game but Clair Obscur Expedition 33.
Iโd say it does. Itโs an independent studio, half the cast had never even made a game before. And theyโre French too.
Gotta plug the games my IRL friends have made, all Swedish:
The Aquatic Adventure of the Last Human
Wriks: nothing completely made by him on steam, but he's done work for several games and other stuff, most of it is on the website.
Deep Rock Galactic is still awesome, made by the Danish dev studio Ghost Ship Games.
Even if you don't like DRG for whatever reason, everyone should appreciate how awesome they are.
Casette Beasts, a Creature collecting (pokemon like) game, is by a UK studio, and Yooka Replaylee which is also British only released last year and I still think it's the most slept-on game of 2025!
There are so many! What kind of games do you like? For example Spilled! Was made by a Dutch solo dev while living on her houseboat.
Hempuli is a Finnish indie dev
idk wtf is going on with Finland, but gamedevs from over there make absolutely crazy lovecraftian-level-of-incomprehensiveness games
- baba is you
- noita
- fear and hunger
- whatever the fuck remedy is doing
Like, wtf is going on there?
-
cold
-
terrible weather
-
nearby to Russia
Alwa's Awakening and Alwa's Legacy, by Elden Pixels, a Swedish studio.
While you're at it, buy from GOG, a Polish store that sells DRM-free games for PC.
Not indie but still good:
- Remedy - Control, Alan Wake.
- Embark - Finals, Ark Raiders.
- Flying Wild hog - Trek to Yomi
I would also add HellDivers 2 , by Arrowhead Game Studios, although the Publisher is a Japanese corporation (Sony Interactive Entertainment) and it is not an indie game at all.
Remedy is a Finnish studio, but the Publisher for Alan Wake is Epic Games, one of the least consumer-friendly companies in the Industry.
BeamNG.Drive is German ๐
It's a softbody physics vehicle sim/sandbox game thing.
My favorite thing to do in it is to pair it with Automation: The Car Company Tycoon Game (NZ-based dev) where you can design vehicles and then export them to BeamNG to drive them.
MENACE is a great sci-fi tactical RPG Iโve been playing a ton recently. Itโs still in early access though so beware of that but its by a german studio who made Battle Brothers and they seem to be knocking it out of the park with updates so far.
I'm biased because I go to the same school these guys went to but check out Wrong Organ: https://www.wrongorgan.com/
They made Mouthwashing and How Fish is Made, both are weird as fuck
Tactical Breach Wizards has been a lot of fun lately
Satisfactory is excellent. Like 3D Factorio.
I've been playing a lot of The Last Caretaker too. It's early access but there's already 20hrs+ of good content. Seriously relaxing game too.
Limbo and Inside, by danish dev company Playdead
Little Nightmares and the new game Reanimal, which is looking amazing, are also by swedish studio Tarsier.
I suppose that they would still count even though their first game has been running for over a decade.
I love Keen Software, and their games Space Engineers and the new Space Engineers 2 that is in early access.
Stray, A Plague Tale, Noita
Arc Raiders: it was produce by Embark Studios located at Stockholm
Drone Perspective - good tactics about the modern war.
No one mentioning Kenshi in this thread should be considered a crime against humanity.
I'm playing Haiku the Robot right now and loving it. It was developed in Estonia.
Iโve been saying this for over a decade now, but, fucking Starbound. Itโs so good. Play Starbound. Play it now.
