Five ideas for those who don’t know what to play
We will tell you about games that may have come out a long time ago, but were out of your attention. We will try to tell you about several genres and directions, in which gamers who are no longer satisfied with the modern gaming world can find something interesting.
Walking around the open world
If you don’t like games that literally drive players through the story, games in which it is impossible to get distracted by the ‘beautiful’, and time is always pressing and does not let you enjoy interesting gameplay and the beauty of graphics, then you should pay attention to the selection of games with an open world. Hundreds of additional quests, crafting, unusual twists and turns, variation of endings, which are influenced by the choice of the player – all this about such games.
And in this direction there are many interesting AAA projects that have become legends. If you missed them earlier, then now it’s time to dive into their amazing worlds:
- The Fallout series. Old players will say that the best are the second and first parts. But for modern gamers they may seem unnecessarily complicated. In addition, the time in them really ‘drives’ us through the plot. Attention should be paid to the third and fourth parts of this franchise, as well as the unnumbered Fallout New Vegas. There are still debates about which of these projects is the best, but all of them definitely deserve attention.
- The Witcher. Attention should be paid to the third part with all additions. Recently its graphics have been improved, so now it looks no worse than modern games. And in terms of scale, number of quests and elaboration of the world, it surpasses most modern top projects.
- The Elder Scrolls series. Here we would recommend to pay attention, firstly, to ‘Oblivion’, and secondly, to the famous ‘Skyrim’. The first one in its time made a real revolution in the gaming world. Now it’s graphics may seem outdated, but the story and game mechanics completely offset this shortcoming. It is worth passing the game together with all the additions. The fifth part of ‘The Scrolls’ turned out to be controversial, but also interesting and open. Numerous modifications allow you to make it more beautiful and quite comparable in beauty with modern projects.
Trying to survive in an unusual world
‘Survival games are on the rise right now. These are games that have almost no story. Gameplay in them is reduced to crafting, exploring the world, building dwellings, extracting resources, etc. And in this genre there is a game that you definitely should not miss – it is the famous ‘Valheim’. You will have to survive in a fairytale world inspired by Scandinavian legends. It is an adventure for hundreds of hours, with the possibility of building the most complex objects, exploring several continents and biomes, battles with complex bosses, etc. And here is also a very interesting way of realisation of navigation on drakkars and resource extraction. What is important, this game supports co-operative mode, you can create your own world with special rules, customisable amount of resources, etc.
Having fun and remembering a good cartoon film
In 2014, fans of the animated series South Park received a great gift – a well-made game based on the cartoon, which was called South Park: The Stick of Truth. And here were collected all the main ‘memes’ from the cartoon, and added new ones. ‘The Stick of Truth’ parodied quest games both on PC and in the real world. It was built around the appearance in the town of a new boy who had a special power of the chosen one – he could find a lot of friends in social networks.
Very interesting in the project was the combat system. Here it is turn-based, but the game is played not on the field with hexagonal cells, but on the lines, on which the fighters are lined up in several rows.
All characters are collected in the game, it has an official voice-over, as in the cartoon (unfortunately, there is no Russian voice-over).
Domestic game world
There are several noteworthy projects developed by Russian-speaking studios. Agree, it is interesting to see ‘what ours have got there’. If you want something more modern and ‘on the hype’, you should first of all pay attention to ‘Atomic Heart’. Juicy graphics, alternative history with high-tech Soviet Union, basically uncomplicated gameplay, which will definitely appeal to fans of ‘Doom’ and other classic shooters – what else do you need to spend a few hours pleasantly at the gaming computer?
The second popular project, which deserved a lot of negative reviews, but still interesting, is, of course, ‘Smuta’. The game came out frankly raw, long finalised and now can be considered quite interesting, if not interesting, then at least playable. It is also quite beautiful.
If you want to try domestic exotica, pay attention to the games produced by the studio Ice-Pick Lodge. It creates truly atmospheric and colourful projects. It was she who released the legendary game ‘Mor. Utopia’, it also owns the no less interesting “Turgar”.
What if you get lucky?
Perhaps it’s time to try something really new? Gambling – hellspinscasino.com (gambling on machines via websites and applications) is overlooked by many reviewers. Meanwhile, in this area in the last ten years there have been a lot of really interesting and unusual trends. And it’s
not even about gambling. Modern casino software developers are trying to make their slots interesting, add to them a plot, quests, skilozavisimosti, release slots with a bright style and unusual themes. How do you like, for example, a slot in the style of the witcher, or in the spirit of films about zombie hunters?
Most importantly, many casinos give access to machines without money and without registration. At Hellspin casino, for example, you can run the machines without any problems, even if you haven’t created a profile here and don’t plan to deposit any money. Demo versions at Hellspin run on PCs and smartphones, and there is even a special app through which you can run the machines here. All in all, Hell spin is perfect for those who came to gambling to ‘just try it out’. There is nothing superfluous here, but there is a simple rubricator and a lot of machines for every taste.
