In this week’s PC Gaming Weekspot episode, we said goodbye to the absolute bin of 2020 and looked to the future and talked about all the games we’ll play throughout 2021.
But given that 2020 is pretty fresh in our minds, I thought that focusing on the games that appeared on the PC last year in this week’s Mystery Steam review would likely look very smart. It was. So … Welcome to 2020, everyone!
A very simple standard of this: All of these games were introduced to the PC in 2020. When we started MSR, we often looked at individual years and had some discussion about the release date of a particular game. So, to avoid this, for example, we excluded games that appeared on Steam in 2020 after a 12-month Epic exclusive deal.

Mystery Steam Review RULEBIBLE ™
For those who don’t know or need a review.
Brought by both Corum and Matthew three Steam reviews to the MSR Arena (yes, arena), but the names of the games covered by each review are omitted. Opponents need to guess the name of the game correctly, including numbers and subtitles. However, there is some margin in the “complete version” and “final version”. 1 correct answer = 1 point.
While both combatants have 90 seconds For each Mystery Steam review, there is help in the form of three lifelines. These can be used at any stage during combat, pausing a 90-second timer. Each lifeline can only be used once.
Question Anyone on the hotsheet can ask a simple “yes” or “no” question unless the question is “the name of the game”. [insert name of the game here]?? “. When Second opinion When used, a man sitting in a warm chair can hear a second Steam review of the same game.And when Genre When is activated, the game genre is revealed to a man with a fiery ass.
