flOw First Impressions

Apparently devised by the winner of last year's GDC indie games competition, flOw offers no explanation to the player - not that the non-English speaking Sony rep manning the lone demo pod could either - but luckily that doesn't matter in the slightest thanks to its delightfully intuitive design. In simple terms, it plays a bit like Snake. You control what appears to be a cell-based life form, swimming around the inky blue looking for things to eat. As you come across strange-looking single-cell organisms, you line up your pincer like jaws and attempt to grow your form. As you weave your way around, the more you consume, the longer and more complex your segments become, and so it goes on

Heres a link to the game online. It's pretty interesting and can get addictive if you're bored.

Definitely agree with it being addictive. I still haven't beaten the second "form" yet :-( It's are really fun game, that you can kind of just . . . zen out to, I guess.

Can't wait to replay this on PS4.

Th3o3966d ago

Same I have no idea why I adore this game and love playing it...It's like my gaming Advil lol

MasterCornholio3966d ago

Oh I didn't know there was a collection.

:)

Might have to pick it up.

Simco8763966d ago

Journey is an experience for sure. Check it out if you haven't.

trenso13965d ago

i always wanted to play this game fully i played the demo but didnt understand what was happening.

Simco8763965d ago

Thats kind of the point. You don't know. It's like just packing some bags and driving with no direction, you find direction along the way and form relationships. It's quite the social experience.

trenso13965d ago

you play with other people in this game?

Simco8763965d ago

you can meet people along the way, but you can't speak to them. Only motions and movement.

S2Killinit3966d ago

I didnt get to play this on PS3. Picking it up for sure.

rezzah3965d ago

hmmm I already own those games. All I want is Journey alone. I've beaten it probably nearly 20 times.

Memorable Music in Gaming #6

Chalgyr's Game Room writes:

We are at it again, with five more music tracks from video games that will stick in your head the way they did Hamza's. We have a pretty good selection here, courtesy of the home computer - no console entries this time.

Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars (MS-DOS) - Finding Nicole

Romantic scores are always a pleasure to listen to: Jerry Goldsmith's love theme from Chinatown, the saxophone-filled main menu music from The Blackwell Epiphany and Finding Nicole from Broken Sword are great examples. Nicole Collard is one of the major characters from the series and the primary romantic interest of the series' protagonist, George Stobbart. After listening to this sensual score, you too will fall in love with her!
