Dear Esther vs The Walking Dead: Season One
Dear Esther
Dear Esther is one of the few rare games that managed to evoke strong powerful emotions simply with beautiful visuals, euphonious instrumentals, and an immersive and narrated story filled with love, loss, guilt and redemption. Previously a cult mod, the game sends you on a journey of exploration and self-reflection as you explore a remote and uninhabited island in the outskirts of Hebrides where apparently a mysterious Esther has summoned you here.The best part about all of this though is that the game is, unlike most heavily story-driven games, very replayable. Every play-through will give you a new experience as the audio, visuals and even the events that happen are all randomly generated. So, if you enjoy story rich games, Dear Esther is a game that will unequivocally captivate you.
The Walking Dead: Season One
The Walking Dead: Season One is the first of the 3-season, story-based game series, The Walking Dead, from Telltale Games and it has rapidly rose to fame partly because the TV series of the same name was (and is still) incredibly popular, but mainly because of the powerful writing and animations that are enough to make even grown men weep. The story in this game puts you in the shoes of Lee Everett, a convicted criminal who is given a second chance in a post-apocalyptic world filled with the undead - a second chance that came in the form of a young orphaned girl, Clementine. With the girl in tow, he vows to protect her at all costs in his own personal quest for redemption. This season contains 5 episodes in total, namely A New Day, Starved for Help, Long Road Ahead, Around Every Corner and No Time Left.The most interesting part about this game is that you'll be given the chance to make critical decisions that may drastically change the path of the plotline, resulting in a very different ending. Much like the gamebooks of old, this game offers multiple endings for you to discover. Sometimes, you'll even have to make important decisions within a limited time (almost immediately, in fact), enhancing the immersion and realism of the story itself.
Garnered over 90 Game of the Year awards, The Walking Dead: Season One will definitely provide players with plenty of nice side stories in addition to the main plotline where you can meet various famous characters in the TV shows before they all ended up in the same city where the first few episodes of the TV show were set in. This is a game that fans of The Walking Dead or of a good story-rich game shoulsn't miss out on!
