Greetings!
Here are three more games I’d like to talk about!
Bioshock
Shocking biology (not remastered)! You probably haven’t heard of this game, but I’ve heard from some vague ug source that this is a game I just had to play!
Honestly though I find it’s kinda overpraised. It was a good game, there’s some interesting story and mechanics, but I wouldn’t say it’s as great as I’ve been told. It definitely felt way longer than it should’ve been and finishing it started to feel like a chore. I’m glad I finished it as I know the story now, but I don’t think I’ll replay it again in a fit of nostalgia a few years down the line or something.
I also started up Bioshock 2, but it already felt like even more of the exact same stuff as Bioshock 1, except slower. Didn’t feel like going through that chore again. Might finish it later just to get to know more of the story, but for now I’ll focus on other, shorter games with more variety in gameplay.
THOTH
Such as THOTH! I bet this game would make a fun co-op game sometime when I have a friend staying over!
It’s very simplistic, both in style and gameplay. I had trouble learning how to play at first, but once I got it down, I enjoyed traversing through the levels a lot! You play as a white dot shooting at coloured cubes (and occasionally balls and beams). The cubes keep chasing you, even after being destroyed, until you manage to beat every cube in the level. Every new set of levels introduces a new, interesting mechanic to play against for a few levels, and then you move right onto the next set of levels. Definitely doesn’t start feeling like it’s stretched its gameplay :p
Broken Age
And a point&click game that I really enjoyed! Finished it just an hour ago, and I really recommend it.
You play as a girl in a fantasy-like world, as well as a boy on a sci-fi spaceship. You can switch from their stories at any time you want, and eventually the stories start to connect in various interesting ways! I also loved the humour, and the solutions to the problems were much more logical than some other point&clicks I’ve played (though that doesn’t say much, and it can still get kinda complex at times :p).
That’s it for now, see you next time! Have a great day! <3
