Phoenix Springs is playable art, and I could see it fitting beautifully into a museum exhibit, especially because you could really start the game at any given point and still find it fulfilling. But unlike many other art-forward games, this one has a compelling narrative that kept me coming back each day until I reached an ending — just one version of the ending, of which I’m certain there are many. It excels at iterating on the point-and-click mystery genre, and it’s designed for ultimate replayability.
