It’s time to prepare your Christmas gifts. And like every year, you’re probably faced with two problems: finding a gift to give to your loved one whose tastes you barely know, and trying not to blow up your bank account. That’s good, Moyens I/O aims to solve these two thorny problems. For several days, we present you a selection of the best technological devices and video games of the year.
Definitely, anyone looking for ideas without knowing much about video games is catered for. We’ve already prepared a list of the three best portable consoles for you, and a selection of the best blockbuster consoles of 2023 is in the pipeline. But today we are also thinking about your wallet. Here are the top 3 of the best indie games released this year, with a maximum budget of €25.
