Here’s a closer look at each title:
It Takes Two: A Co-op Gem You Won’t Want to Miss
It Takes Two is an acclaimed action-adventure platformer designed exclusively for cooperative play. You and a friend will embark on a whimsical journey as Cody and May, a couple on the verge of divorce who find themselves magically transformed into dolls. Navigate through vibrant and imaginative levels, each presenting unique gameplay challenges and mechanics that require teamwork and communication to overcome.
- Why you’ll love it: It Takes Two is a critically acclaimed masterpiece that won Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2021. Its innovative gameplay, heartwarming story, and charming visuals make it a must-play for any co-op enthusiast.
- My experience: I had the pleasure of playing It Takes Two with my partner earlier this year, and it was an absolute blast. We laughed, we strategized, and we even had a few (playful) arguments along the way. It was a truly memorable gaming experience that strengthened our bond and reminded us of the importance of teamwork.
Aliens: Dark Descent – Strategic Survival Against the Xenomorph Threat
Aliens: Dark Descent plunges players into the terrifying depths of the Alien universe. This single-player, squad-based action game challenges you to lead a squad of Colonial Marines in a desperate fight for survival against a deadly xenomorph outbreak on the planet Lethe.
- Strategic Depth: Utilize real-time tactics to command your marines, deploying them strategically and utilizing their unique abilities to outmaneuver and overcome the relentless alien threat.
- Authentic Atmosphere: Immerse yourself in the chilling atmosphere of the Alien franchise, with faithfully recreated environments, iconic creatures, and a gripping narrative that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
- A New Perspective on the Franchise: While I’m a long-time fan of the Alien films, I haven’t had a chance to delve into Dark Descent yet. I’m particularly intrigued by its squad-based tactics, which seem to offer a fresh and engaging way to experience the Alien universe.
Temtem: Catch, Battle, and Train in this MMO Inspired by Pokémon
Temtem is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that draws inspiration from the beloved Pokémon series. Explore the Airborne Archipelago, a vibrant world filled with unique creatures known as Temtem. Catch them all, train them, and battle other players in this captivating online adventure.
- Creature Collecting: Discover over 160 Temtem to collect and train, each with its own strengths, weaknesses, and evolutionary paths.
- Online Battles: Engage in competitive battles against other players, utilizing strategic turn-based combat to prove your skills as a Temtem tamer.
- A Growing World: Temtem is constantly evolving with new content updates, including new Temtem, areas to explore, and gameplay features.
- My thoughts: As a fan of creature-collecting games, I’m eager to jump into Temtem. The prospect of exploring a new world filled with unique creatures and engaging in online battles with other players is incredibly appealing.
