Badland vs Superliminal
Badland
Badland gained worldwide acclaim when it was first released mainly because the game itself has one of the best level designs on the mobile platform, responsive and intuitive controls, as well as a realistic physics-based gameplay. However, that's not the cherry on top - the game is possibly among the first on either Android or iOS to offer a multiplayer and co-op option despite being simply "a puzzle game". The graphics in this game is also incredibly stunning in its simplistic kind of way. The color hues supplemented the black, ball-like creature you'll be playing as. And of course, the game offers endless replayability via its level editor where players can create their own levels, share them to the world, and even play other people's levels too!Badland is an excellent atmospheric side-scrolling action-adventure platformer that guarantees hours of fun regardless of whether you're playing alone, or with or against friends. Its awards are very well-deserved and by playing it (you can get it for free), you'll quickly realize this is one of the many gems in the indie gaming scene.
Superliminal
Superliminal is designed to challenge even the most avid of puzzle solvers, providing them with mind-boggling puzzles, the unique ability to change the size of objects based on depth in perception, and a story filled with heart.The game starts off with you dozing off at the couch in front of a TV showing a weird commercial about some dream therapy program that promptly landed you in a weird dream-like state in which you find yourself the subject of an odd scientific experiment. Thankfully, unlike the more surgical kind of experimentation which would definitely turn the game into a horror show, the scientist behind this experiment is more concerned about testing your mind and its ability to perceive, pushing it to its very limits.
Superliminal offers a nice variety of perspective-based puzzles for you to solve as you move from room to room in what seems to be a vast yet empty scientific complex. The puzzles here start off easy enough since the game does have to do its job of introducing the mechanics to you. The mechanics here mostly involve finding objects that you can manipulate (a.k.a. resize and reposition) and then use in the puzzle’s solution in order to move on to the next “level” or room.
Once you got a hold of the basics, the difficulty of the puzzles starts to ramp up and at times, you might find yourself completely at loss as to what you should do, as I did… and I’m ashamed to say pretty early on in the game. When the game says that “what you see isn’t always what you get”, it’s not kidding.
Superliminal is one of those rare, trippy puzzle games that either you get it or you don’t. Puzzle enthusiasts might find the game more than intriguing to take a crack at due to its unique perspective-based puzzles. The game may be short but the experience it leaves you is unforgettable!
