72: Cloud Gardens

This episode looks at three very different building games – the under-structured endless creative mode of Townscaper, the overly points-based Islanders, and a game that hits the Goldilocks zone: Cloud Gardens. It's a mellow but melancholic light free-form puzzler in which you drop endless human trash into abandoned post-industrial dioramas, until wild plants completely overgrow them.  Also mentioned this episode: Death Trash, Psychonauts 2, Lake.
