Angry Birds vs Superliminal
Angry Birds
Angry Birds is one of the most popular and downloaded mobile games in history, and one of the most successful franchises to ever hit the mobile market. And when you play you can see why with its mix of simplicity, addictiveness and sheer comedy.The nasty pigs have stolen your eggs and as the birds you are on a rampage to get then back. By flinging themselves at the buildings in their path they will recover their lost children. With a really simple style this game has proven to be very addictive. You simply aim the catapult in the direction you want and let fly. The aim of the game is to destroy as much of the buildings in front of you as possible.
With it’s fun sense of humor and penchant for not taking itself too seriously it has led to a really fun game full of quirky humor and a lot of really engaging gameplay. Throw in the cute graphics and social aspects of the game and you can see why it was such a big hit globally.
Superliminal
Superliminal is designed to challenge even the most avid of puzzle solvers, providing them with mind-boggling puzzles, the unique ability to change the size of objects based on depth in perception, and a story filled with heart.The game starts off with you dozing off at the couch in front of a TV showing a weird commercial about some dream therapy program that promptly landed you in a weird dream-like state in which you find yourself the subject of an odd scientific experiment. Thankfully, unlike the more surgical kind of experimentation which would definitely turn the game into a horror show, the scientist behind this experiment is more concerned about testing your mind and its ability to perceive, pushing it to its very limits.
Superliminal offers a nice variety of perspective-based puzzles for you to solve as you move from room to room in what seems to be a vast yet empty scientific complex. The puzzles here start off easy enough since the game does have to do its job of introducing the mechanics to you. The mechanics here mostly involve finding objects that you can manipulate (a.k.a. resize and reposition) and then use in the puzzle’s solution in order to move on to the next “level” or room.
Once you got a hold of the basics, the difficulty of the puzzles starts to ramp up and at times, you might find yourself completely at loss as to what you should do, as I did… and I’m ashamed to say pretty early on in the game. When the game says that “what you see isn’t always what you get”, it’s not kidding.
Superliminal is one of those rare, trippy puzzle games that either you get it or you don’t. Puzzle enthusiasts might find the game more than intriguing to take a crack at due to its unique perspective-based puzzles. The game may be short but the experience it leaves you is unforgettable!
