Polygon sets its sights on the big city, highlighting January’s anticipated games featuring Perfect Tides: Station to Station, the narrative point ‘n click sequel to Three Bees’ acclaimed Perfect Tides, coming to PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch on Jan. 22, 2026.

After a long year that felt like it would never end at times, 2026 is finally here. The new year offers a fresh opportunity to get away from the baggage of 2025 and start with a clean slate. It’s also a good excuse to give your 2025 gaming backlog a break and look ahead to what could be a pretty major year for gaming — so long as delays don’t radically change what’s on tap.

Written and designed by Meredith Gran, the creator of the hit webcomic Octopus Pie, Perfect Tides: Station to Station follows the story of Mara, an 18-year-old woman who makes a life-changing move away from her cozy island home. Join her as she takes her tentative first steps on a journey of self-discovery and dives headfirst into the big city college experience.

Choose how Mara spends her time as she meets new friends and potential romantic partners, falls into interesting conversations between classes, and travels along the city’s mass transit system. Develop her unique writing voice by synthesizing these experiences into thoughtful essays – or awkward rambles no one will want to read.
