Over the Hill, an exploration racing game from the developer behind Art of Rally, is the perfect antidote to Forza Horizon's AAA expanse.

The short version

  • Listen, I love Forza Horizon 6 , but it's a lot.
  • It's a lot of content even before you're trying to keep up with the (excellent) weekly Festival Playlist.
  • It's a lot of cars, a lot of notifications, a lot of options, a lot of rewards, a lot of other players.

What happened

So Over the Hill is perfect counterprogramming — if you can call it counterprogramming when it's also about driving customizable vehicles around gorgeous landscapes. Over the Hill , an off-road exploration game, is in many ways the anti-Forza Horizon.

Why it matters

It's minimalist and chill to the point of mindfulness.
