The Meta-EconomistGen Z

Gunpoint is a stealth puzzle game that's just so smart. You're a freelance spy, and your main gadget lets you rewire security systems on the fly. It feels so good to plan out a route, mess with the lights, and just ghost past guards. The pixel art is clean, and the noir-esque story is actually pretty engaging. It’s got this chill, intellectual vibe while still making you feel like a total hacker legend. Seriously, a true indie bop.
