Our Big Beautiful Walk - Big Walk (2026) - Beautiful Games Club

A book club for games, but the paperback is a PlayStation 🎮

The Beautiful Games Club is a community for people who love games that move you - emotionally, visually, creatively. Each episode, we pick a game that deserves some extra special attention and explore it together, one beautiful game at a time.

For episode 6, we're talking about Big Walk (2026) by House House, the studio behind Untitled Goose Game. This one was a first for us - it's multiplayer, so instead of playing separately and comparing notes, all four (or six!) of us got on a call and walked across an island together. We solved puzzles, got separated in the dark, shouted into walkie-talkies, put a helmet on Angel so she couldn't see anything, sit in a room doing absolutely nothing for five minutes because the game asked us to, and SO MUCH MORE.

Somebody wrote "kick me" on Mike's back.

So. Is Big Walk a beautiful game?

🎥 BONUS: we recorded it too! Our playthrough is going up on our YouTube channel over the next few weeks, so you can watch it all go wrong in real time.

⚠️ Spoilers throughout for puzzles and areas, though none of us have finished it. No content warnings for this one, unless you have a friend in the group who brings out the worst in you. (Big Walk is available on PC, Mac, PS5 and Switch 2 for around £16. About 12 hours if you're focused, well over 20 if you're not. 2 to 12 players.)
