Gardens of Time vs Inside
Gardens of Time
Gardens of Time is a hidden object adventure game with a stoyrline that based on time travel. You play as a Time Keeper in the Time Society in this game and it is your sacred duty to protect the integrity of time against external, and possibly sinister forces, by putting objects from other time periods back to where they belong. The game also has some elements of building as well since you'll be given the honor of nuturing your very own time garden to house artifacts you've collected from your travels.Being a Keeper of Time is no easy task, more so when some sinister forces are trying to mess up the space-time continuum. Seek and retrieve items that are out of place across time and protect history from these forces with your life. History mustn't fall into the wrong hands!
Inside
Inside is 2.5D-like, atmospheric puzzle/platformer where you play as a young boy trapped within a dark project that pushes the human body within the limitations of physics. Being a puzzle game, Inside has some of the most intriguing ones. The goals are often vaguely known rather than being concretely defined by the game, and of course, every aspect of the puzzle is built to push your use and understanding of the game mechanics and your character's (limited) abilities as a boy. Interestingly, there are a lot of water levels for a platformer game, but these levels somehow managed to feel relevant to the overall storyline and spices up the gameplay.Although many have openly criticize the ending of the game, the overall feeling that is evoked by it seems perfect for a game as dark and as unsetlling as this one. If you're ready for a puzzle-platform game that will challenge your brain while at the same time bring out strong emotions, this is the game to play.
