Regardless of Schedule 1, this is currently the best game on Steam

Published:

Although it is not always simple to be up to date, the fact that so many games are released all the time means that we live in a golden age of the industry. Even independent titles can do this in this average world of games, but some seem to come out of nowhere.

To take Annex 1 (Stylized as “Annex I”), for example. He recently glanced List of the best Steam sellersI expected me to see something like this Repo keep your position or Nuclear energy get the highest place. So I was surprised, seeing that this fresh edition immediately fired at the second number (which makes him the best edition, just behind the steam deck).

Don’t worry if you don’t know what Annex 1 Is. I have to admit that I wasn’t aware of this only a few hours ago. Only issued yesterday, but it already has quite good reviews Couple.

So what exactly is Annex 1?

From the assets of low polygonal and cartoon visualizers, it was possible to confuse with the thought that at first glance it was a somewhat charming independent game. However, I will allow the description on the Steam website to fill you:

You are a tiny drug seller who enters a fresh city without cash, without a product and without connections. Build your drug empire from scratch in Grungy West-Coast City of Hyland Point. Emploate before intensifying law enforcement agencies and deadly competitors of cartels to expand the empire and reach the peak of the underground world.

This is basically a SIM game, but maybe for fans Breaking Bad. He clearly gained enough noise to hit the second place on Steam. In fact, when I checked earlier, Annex 1 He actually knocked down the steam deck from the upper position in which he holds so violently. Here’s the proof:

According to SteamdbThe game has reached a parallel number of players 68,662 in the last 24 hours. To look at it from a perspective, Notorious He showed just over 2,000 players At the same time.

Of course, this does not necessarily mean Annex 1 It is another great thing. In the past, we have seen such trends, but it is fascinating that tiny games from fresh studies can apparently knock down some of the largest publications in the industry. At least for a low period.
