Castlevania: Harmony of Despair: review
Harmony of Despair actively goes against the grain of modern game design in order to craft a unique cooperative experience. The game does little to teach you its rules, but they’re never so obtuse that you can’t put your heads together and figure out what to do next. The game reinforces comradery at every turn, something you can’t experience by yourself.
Limbo: review
Bereft of filler, nearly every moment of Limbo is unique and beautiful. You are a boy. You walk left, right, jump, or grab your way through a dark, gloomy world. You are looking for someone, but the game never says who. Limbo never actually says anything – it simply exists and leaves you to interpret its meaning.
