Bully vs Shelter
Bully
Bully is rather controversial simulation/RPG where you play as a mischievous 15-year-old Jimmy Hopkins who is starting at a fictional boarding school in New England, the infamous Bullworth Academy. The game lets you play the role of a bully as you go around the school playing pranks on other students, get into fights, skipping classes, and maybe even kissing the hottest girl at school behind the bleachers.In a dysfunctional school like Bullworth, navigating the social hierarchy isn't an easy task. However, the game is laced with plenty of hilarious moments that lighten the game somewhat. If this sound like fun to you, you should definitely check the game out!
Shelter
Shelter is truly a one-of-a-kind game where you'll get to play as a mother badger who's taking care of her newly-born cubs. Developed by Might and Delight, the game puts you on an exciting yet heartwarming adventure as you travel about with your cubs in tow in hopes of finding the perfect shelter to raise them. In your journey, you and your family will encounter lots of danger and it is up to you - the mama badger - to protect your cubs from harm, whether it is a raging forest fire or a bird of prey.Besides adventure, the game also comes with a second game mode called Nurture. It's a lot like a Tamagochi game where you'll need to head into the game every day (at least once) to give your cubs the stuff they need to survive and also to forge closer bonds with them.
This is one of the breakout indie games of 2013 but it's not the sort of game that will get old with age, so if you love games where you'll get to play as an animal and you enjoy a good story-adventure, then Shelter is your best bet!
