Firewatch vs The Room 3
Firewatch
Firewatch is an intriguing, mystery-infused first-person adventure game that's set in the wilderness of Wyoming. In this game, you play as Henry, a rather messed-up person with a messed-up life that he is trying to escape from... and he ended up working as a fire lookout in... well, Wyoming. Being a fire lookout, your job is to look for signs of smoke and communicate any incidences you encounter to your supervisor, Delilah, via your handheld radio. Aside from doing your job though, there are plenty of fun hidden secrets and discoveries out there in the wilderness for you to find.Although the game has a rather small cast of characters, you can actually build relationships with them as you play the game. The game also has a storyline that changes based on the decisions you make. Your decisions will also affect the relationships you make with the people you meet in the game. Of course, the game is very atmospheric as well, with its unique art style and brilliant music.
Firewatch is a really nice story-driven game that focuses more on exploring the wilderness while keeping an eye out for the telltale sign of a fire.
The Room 3
The Room 3 is the second highly acclaimed sequel to an highly acclaimed puzzle adventure game series. This time around, the game sets you in a remote island that is filled with trials devised by the sadistic and mysterious figure known as "The Craftsman". Like the previous games, you'll need to figure out how to solve the game's many puzzles by examining and fixing various artifacts and devices. The game now has better hints, cloud saving and alternate endings. You are given an eyepiece to magnify the smaller parts of the puzzle as well.The Room 3 is perhaps the best game in the series yet and if the developers are working on another sequel, they have an incredibly high bar to reach. That said, it's best if you start with the first two games first, especially if you actually care about the storyline.
