Journey vs Silent Hill 4: The Room
Journey
Journey is literally a quintessential "artsy" adventure game. Why so? Well, the game puts you in the shoes of a mysterious robed figure who you will control throughout your adventure across beautiful, quiet and mostly desert landscapes. Each landscape provides players with a puzzle to solve that will allow them to move on to the next scene, though players can simply roam around the place and drink in the gorgeous visuals.There isn't a lot of buttons in the game and that's fine enough since you really don't need much to solve the puzzles, but personally, I'm incredibly intrigued by the Sing function. Although it is used to solve certain puzzles, most of the time you'll probably be using it idly while your character is travelling. Depending on how long you press the button and how fast you do so, you can actually create amazing little tunes that you'd love to have it recorded down and turned into perhaps a ringtone or something.
That said, Journey is a game that's so much more than composing music and solving puzzles. It is a journey (like its namesake) to help the robed figure discover who he/she is and to help you figure out what's happened in the game world, resulting in the sprawling desert that spans most of the game.
Silent Hill 4: The Room
Silent Hill 4: The Room is the fourth and final installment of the main Silent Hill series (that is made by the original Silent Hill team). In this game, you play as Henry Townshend who found himself locked in his apartment that happened to be cursed by a malevolent evil. Due to this, strange stuff began to happen not only to him but also to the other residents in the apartment, teleporting him to a variety of different areas like a forest, a prison and even a hotel, and throwing tons of unimaginable creatures and the undead to stop his (and your) progress as he sought to escape from the hellish nightmare he seemed to be trapped in. However, as he overcame challenges after challenges, he may eventually find out the truth behind all of these.Silent Hill 4: The Room is an excellent end to a franchise that was so greatly loved by many. However, that's not the end though. The game has been picked up by another team and more Silent Hill may still be produced.
