Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
Also, I’m playing around with what day of the week to post this, and seeing what days get the best interaction. If you have a preference, please let me know!
You're viewing a single thread.
I've been playing a bunch of shorter games, such as:
- Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
- Firewatch
- City of Beats
- Kao the Kangaroo
And I'm still playing a few games while my kids watch.
Firewatch is such a great, bite-sized experience. Still think about it from time to time.
Just finished it in one sitting, what a ride.
Kao the Kangaroo
Which one, original or the reboot?
Reboot. I never played the original.
Ahh, I see. How is it (in general, as a mascot platformer)?
Decent, but I think it's a little odd:
- collectibles require backtracking in levels, yet they also record time, so I'm not sure if they're recommending speed or exploration; levels are pretty linear
- you can buy lives/extra hearts in the store (why?)
- some things can be fiddly
I think Yooka-Laylee is way better, but it's still fun.
Hmm, considering it already reminded me of the second game (not bad but I did prefer the original, even if it was "worse") I'll probably skip this one. Thanks!
