Journey vs Love Island: The Game
Journey
Journey is literally a quintessential "artsy" adventure game. Why so? Well, the game puts you in the shoes of a mysterious robed figure who you will control throughout your adventure across beautiful, quiet and mostly desert landscapes. Each landscape provides players with a puzzle to solve that will allow them to move on to the next scene, though players can simply roam around the place and drink in the gorgeous visuals.There isn't a lot of buttons in the game and that's fine enough since you really don't need much to solve the puzzles, but personally, I'm incredibly intrigued by the Sing function. Although it is used to solve certain puzzles, most of the time you'll probably be using it idly while your character is travelling. Depending on how long you press the button and how fast you do so, you can actually create amazing little tunes that you'd love to have it recorded down and turned into perhaps a ringtone or something.
That said, Journey is a game that's so much more than composing music and solving puzzles. It is a journey (like its namesake) to help the robed figure discover who he/she is and to help you figure out what's happened in the game world, resulting in the sprawling desert that spans most of the game.
Love Island: The Game
Love Island: The Game is a romance-themed interactive story that is quite similar to Episode - Choose Your Story andChapters - Interactive Stories in terms of its gameplay. Inspired by ITV's hit reality TV show, Love Island, this game will put you into the shoes of one of the hot ladies, letting you choose your own smoking hot dates and create your own drama. Like the other games in the genre, you can customize your avatar's looks as well from time to time just so you can unlock the best possible plot for your character.
The only complaint that many players have voiced is that the diamonds that are needed to purchase unique clothes to open up new dialogue choices or to skip the waiting time in between parts of the story can be very difficult to earn as a free-to-play player. Expect to spend some real money on this game if you want to enjoy the best plotline of the game.
