The story in this game is also not shown through a wall of text or dialogue but instead, the emotions and are poignantly displayed through the actions of the characters and the visualization of their thoughts such as the part where they saw their dead mother.With gorgeous graphics, melodious music, a stunning world, and quirky characters, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons single-handedly proved that games can be an art-form. If you're ready for an adventure that will leave you sad enough to shed at least a tear, this is the game you need. You can get the game on Steam or on the mobile platforms, Android and iOS.
Overcooked
Overcooked is a fun cooking-themed time management game that has a wicked, co-operative twist - instead of managing workers in your kitchen like some version of Gordon Ramsay, you will get to play with up to 4 of your friends. By now, you can probably imagine the havoc around the kitchen as each of you dashes around in order to get a dish from its humble beginning as raw food into something actually edible. Of course, the game does have a single-player mode if you prefer to play on your own, but admittedly, the game becomes a whole lot more entertaining when other humans are added to the equation.The game also has a quirky storyline set in the fantasy kingdom called Onion Kingdom. Apparently, the kingdom is in danger and only through cooking will you be able to save it. In your adventure, you and your team of chefs will journey through a series of unusually interesting kitchens in hopes of gaining the skills needed to defeat the edible evil which threatens the land.
Overcooked is definitely the game to play if you're into hectic co-op games that will not only push your team's time management skills to the limit, but also put your friendship to the test!
