https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SX8XMwMw6Y You're not Portal. You want so badly to be Portal, but you'll never be Portal. I dig the basic concept of using perspective to manipulate size, even if it does get a little repetitive lifting up an object and dropping it repeatedly to make it a different size. The game is fun even if it doesn't quite hold up to others in the physics-bending tongue-in-chief science lab genre. 108. Telling Lies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=da63CPUkmRI Telling Lies is the followup to Her Story, with a much more amibitious story piecing together live action video of several different characters. Like with Her Story, you only start with a limited selection of clips, but you can search for different clips using topics you overheard in previous clips, requiring you to pay close attention to the information you've learned. I don't think it hits quite the same way Her Story did though, with the more ambitious story making you feel a little less connected to its characters. Everything is ultimately tied around David, a man who has some sort of relationship with the other 3 women, but it also goes into some things regarding ecoterrorism that, while very interesting, get a little bit muddled. 107. The Beginners Guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBK5Jheu0To Imagine if The Stanley Parable was trying to make you cry instead of laugh. That's The Beginner's Guide, and it is 100% successful at that goal, for better or worse. It's interesting because it very closely walks that line between the first-person puzzle game genre and being a straight art game. Worth a try if you like art games, but might not have the deeply satisfying gameplay you're looking for otherwise. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ...
