Kindergarten vs Prose & Codes
Kindergarten
Kindergarten aims to bring you back to the time when you're in kindergarten doing what kindergarteners always do... in addition to the learning, of course. The game is designed more like a puzzle-adventure game rather than a straight-up adventure, since there will be plenty of creeping around the grown-ups as you try to figure out what caused the many things that happened in your kindergarten, including the case of a missing classmate, the janitor cleaning up blood, a teacher who dreads being in the same room as a bunch of kindergarteners, and generally a kindergarten that just feels a bit off.The game is as whimsical as it is entertaining, and for a game in a rather uncharted territory, it ended up feeling like the sort of game that many players regardless of age would love. After all, who hasn't been to a kindergarten to know what it is like, right?
Prose & Codes
Prose & Codes is a fun and fairly relaxing puzzle game where you’ll need to solve simple substitution ciphers involving excerpts from both popular and obscure literary classics that are listed as “public domain” while being serenaded by beautiful piano music. The game features book excerpts from 7 different genres, ranging from children’s stories to tales of epic adventures; several difficulty levels to choose from, and if you like what you’ve deciphered, you can even hop on over to the online library that is Project Gutenberg since all these books are available to read and download for free.Even if you’re not a whiz at solving ciphers, Prose & Codes will have you hooked from start to finish! The levels are very well designed and tailored to the difficulty setting of your choice, and the excerpts are all very well-selected. If you’re a book lover, not only can you have fun decoding the ciphers and bookmarking the excerpts that you love most; you can also take this opportunity to discover new titles that you might be interested to read.
Finding the corresponding book is easy as pie too since the game provides you with a nifty button that will direct you over to Project Gutenberg where you can download and read the books (in eBook form) for free.
