Despicable Me: Minion Rush vs Past Cure
Despicable Me: Minion Rush
Despicable Me: Minion Rush is an auto-running game featuring the adorable and very mischievious minions from teh Despicable Me animated movie series. Race around Gru's secret evil lair and Dr Nefario's lab collecting delicious bananas, completing objectives, and avoiding obstacles with a simple flick of your finger.Go on exciting special missions and explore the game's most recent expansion, the ancient runes of Egypt, as well. Minion Rush also allows you to personalize your minion and grant it special powers. That's not all, the game even offers up to 12 different mini-games that you can enjoy aside from endlessly running!
Despicable Me: Minion Rush is a pretty interesting running game mainly due to its ties to the hugely popular Despicable Me franchise, and partly because of the wide variety of bells and whistles in its gameplay that makes every run an exciting one.
Past Cure
Past Cure is a story-driven thriller/adventure game where you play as a Syrian ex-army veteran, Ian, who was kidnapped and subjected to horrific, and very much illegal, scientific experiments. As a result, Ian has gained superhuman mental capabilities, including the ability to conjure astral projections and use mind bashes to destroy objects, in addition to his already intensive military training from being a soldier. However, all of this comes at a terrible cost - Ian's mind is destabilized and only the effects of an experimental yet powerful drug called Blue is able to help him keep his mental demons at bay.Although the game contains game mechanics like shooting, melee combat (boxing) and stealth, Past Cure is still primarily a story-oriented adventure game. Progression here is pretty linear, as most single narrative games are, and there aren't a lot of depth when it comes to its game features, with the sole exception of its intriguing storyline and several puzzle-like scenarios. The atmosphere generated in the game is astounding though! The music, especially during creepy scenes, makes your skin crawl, and the game features plenty of brilliantly edited cutscenes with some cool cinematographic effects.
So, despite the negative reviews on Steam, Past Cure is a really well-made interactive experience, story-wise. However, if you're expecting anything else, such as a hardcore stealth-based game, then you might feel like the game's a huge let-down. At least now you know what you can expect before you purchase the game!
