The International Film Music Critics Association announced the nominees for its annual IFMCA awards, and they have a great selection.
"Story-driven games are a curious breed that always ropes me in and yet shoves me away. When I heard Divide was built from the ground-up to present a story, I knew if it was pulled off well I’d be hooked to it firmly. I do love stories in our interactive medium. A lot of my favourite games are ones built with a tale in mind with the mechanics reinforcing the narrative (e.g. Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward). Yet, like gameplay-driven titles, it can lead to the lack of a safety net if the primary drive falters due to such focus. This is something that, unfortunately, Divide demonstrates to a disappointing level." - Kailan May
Divide, a top down/third person sci-fi adventure game that attempts to tell a compelling story, but is bogged down by ultimately disappointing combat and mechanics.
