Indie collective Owl Cave have joined forces with British independent publisher Mastertronic to bring point-and-click adventure game Richard & Alice to Steam.
The game, developed by Lewis Denby and Starbound lead writer Ashton Raze, is set in a post-apocalyptic world torn apart by years of heavy snowfall, with the titular characters inmates in an isolated future prison. Each character has their own mysterious reasons for being incarcerated, which will become clear as the story progresses.
Mastertronic and the Humble Weekly Bundle are offering 14 PC games, including many for Mac and Linux, to support the charity organizations, GamesAid and SpecialEffect, and of course, the developers.
Pay whatever you want and decide who your money goes to - the choice is entirely yours!
The Humble Bundle is one of the few industry trends I really love, from these last few years.
OnlySP: As the year draws to a close, let’s take a look back at the Top 5 tear-jerking and/or heartbreaking games of 2014.
Warning spoilers ahead.
I found the inclusion of Watch Dogs very odd...even more odd because of this quote at the end of the paragraph:
"Overall, Watch_Dogs did okay emotionally"
Doesn't seem like something you'd say of a game that sits in a Top 5 anything list "did okay"...hmm, strange.
After The Last of Us & Beyond Two Souls, no other game connected with me on an emotional level.
I am resigned to engage the following media only on these levels:
Games - Action
Movies - Emotions
From the review: "In a game that brings a little of the very best of retro point and click gaming nostalgia and also some of it's worst, only a decent narrative and a big plot twist can save Richard and Alice from a far worse fate than living in an ice world."
