Posted on: 29 Apr 2023

Between all the major AAA blockbusters arriving this year, if you’re looking for a more unusual videogame then Humanity is it. From the minds that brought you Rez Infinite and Tetris Effect, this is quite literally a game about saving humanity for PS5, PS4 and PC.

Humanity is essentially a modern-day Lemmings of sorts. This time with humans as the ones needing guidance. An action-puzzle game, in Humanity you play a Shiba Inu dog – the most popular small dog breed in Japan – which acts as a guiding light. You then need to guide all these lost humans towards the light, saving their souls in the process.

This is achieved through an evermore bewildering array of trials, filled with tricks, traps, and obstacles such as water, wind, mountains and valleys to overcome.
