Alter Ego vs The Endless Forest
Alter Ego
Alter Ego is a text-based interactive story that's based on the "choose your own adventure" formula used by gamebooks back in the 90s. However, being a digital version has its advantages, the game can be packed with more choices and multiple-choice questions, allowing it to be a lot more in-depth than any of the traditional gamebooks.The storyline in this game is pretty unique too. Alter Ego details the story of a human - you can choose the gender - from birth to death. You'll be going through his or her lifespan, making decisions and in general, living the life of a virtual person.
The game claims to be able to change your life and in some way, it can. If you enjoy story-based games, Alter Ego might just be the game you seek. It's so realistic in its way and that's where its charm lies.
The Endless Forest
The Endless Forest isn't exactly a game but more of a playable screensaver. When your computer goes to sleep, this program will run and your deer character will then appear in a seemingly endless forest. There's no objective or quests for you to complete here. Instead, you are given total freedom to explore the forest and if you're lucky, you may discover something special along the way.However, this is about to change because the developer behind this screensaver program decided to turn it into a full-blown MMO, allowing players from all over the world interact and play together as deers. There's no chat box in the game and instead, you'll need to learn to communicate as deers do, that is through sound and body movement. There will also be more places for you to explore, besides the endless forest, as well as fun and relaxing activities to do.
You can still download the screensaver version of The Endless Forest is you want to get an idea of what the game would be about - It's completely free, after all, but if you want to play the actual game, you might need to wait a bit since the game's still under development.
