Video games are a unique medium, partly because of the way in which they can tell stories. The interactive nature of games makes it possible to convey narrative in a way that other mediums cannot. Narrative-based adventures are an especially wonderful genre in which people can tell different sorts of tales. Those are the games that are celebrated each year with the annual LudoNarraCon weekend. Steam is helping bring awareness to LudoNarraCon this weekend by throwing a special LudoNarraCon Sale, celebrating the very best of narrative-based games. That includes sales on games like Disco Elysium, Spiritfarer, Haven, Neo Cab, and many more.

Elsewhere, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has kicked off a new season. That means you can pick up a copy on sale right now through Battle.net. Alien: Isolation is totally free through the Epic Games Store. Humble Bundle has one of its most exciting bundles yet with an outstanding LEGO bundle. Green Man Gaming has the best of Capcom and 2K. And to bring it all full circle, if you want to play some Jackbox games, you'll find yourself right back on Steam for the Jackbox Weekend Party Sale.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
