This month I'd like to highlight the excellent Chants of Sennaar, a real masterpiece from small French indie studio rundisc_. In this puzzle game, we explore the Tower of Babel and learn its different languages in order to recreate lost links between now distant peoples. It's a game in which the notion of humility runs through all artistic aspects, a humility that somewhat contradicts the tower's verticality, its hierarchy and its taste for emphasis. But all of Babel's inhabitants aren't that happy, and satisfaction conceals many humiliations.
