Past Cure vs S4 League
Past Cure
Past Cure is a story-driven thriller/adventure game where you play as a Syrian ex-army veteran, Ian, who was kidnapped and subjected to horrific, and very much illegal, scientific experiments. As a result, Ian has gained superhuman mental capabilities, including the ability to conjure astral projections and use mind bashes to destroy objects, in addition to his already intensive military training from being a soldier. However, all of this comes at a terrible cost - Ian's mind is destabilized and only the effects of an experimental yet powerful drug called Blue is able to help him keep his mental demons at bay.Although the game contains game mechanics like shooting, melee combat (boxing) and stealth, Past Cure is still primarily a story-oriented adventure game. Progression here is pretty linear, as most single narrative games are, and there aren't a lot of depth when it comes to its game features, with the sole exception of its intriguing storyline and several puzzle-like scenarios. The atmosphere generated in the game is astounding though! The music, especially during creepy scenes, makes your skin crawl, and the game features plenty of brilliantly edited cutscenes with some cool cinematographic effects.
So, despite the negative reviews on Steam, Past Cure is a really well-made interactive experience, story-wise. However, if you're expecting anything else, such as a hardcore stealth-based game, then you might feel like the game's a huge let-down. At least now you know what you can expect before you purchase the game!
S4 League
S4 League has to be one of the most innovative shooter games out there. It takes the traditional shooting game mechanics and implements a whole bunch of intriguing new features into the mix that not only increase the pace of the gameplay quite dramatically but also make things significantly more enjoyable. In addition to the usual game modes, the game also provides players with unique ones like the Touch Down mode which require you to grab the football from the middle of the playing field and get it to your team’s base to score a point. It’s basically a Capture the Flag mode but with a pretty sporty twist.All in all, if you’re tired of traditional MMO shooter games and want something fresh, then S4 League will no doubt deliver. It may be an old game and probably couldn’t hold its own under any scrutiny, but it’s still a pretty fun one.
