The Room

The Room is a puzzle game developed and released by the British game company Fireproof Games. It is a near-perfect puzzle game. It does not use the Internet and does not have any in-app-purchases.

There are three games in this series, and they are 3D puzzle games with a tense and exciting plot rhythm. The three games are closely related, and with the help of the game's clues, you can piece together the main character's story.

This game is beautifully modeled, the edge of the angles are handled very smooth. The contrast of shadows and light is designed just right, while the main object is highlighted, the background is still clearly visible, greatly increasing the three-dimensional sense of the picture.

The design of each organ is full of whimsy, and the precise and sophisticated box organ with the eyepiece is a great admiration for the designer's brain. A ring of props and clues, so you can not help but to explore.

This series of games are not difficult, as long as the heart, you can follow the clues smoothly pass
In short, all three works maintain a high quality level of output, worth playing!

Machinarium

Machinarium shows us a new mechanical world. This is a puzzle game with a high degree of freedom. With the mechanical sense of painting and sound, the designer has built a new world for players.

The main plot is very simple, you could even say it's cheesy: three villains, a kidnapped robot girl and the main character, the robot who saves his girlfriend, and the city with the villains. (In a nutshell, it's all about defeating the bad guys and rescuing the girlfriend!)

There is hardly any text in the course of the game, but there are a lot of interactive objects in the game, which may seem unrelated, but when you understand the message, everything can be linked together.

To make sure players don't get stuck on a puzzle, the game is designed with a two-tiered guide mode.

- Players can click on the "little light bulb" and the main character will float a small bubble of simple ideas that will tell you what to do next.
- Players can click on the "clue book" to get detailed guidance, but to know the contents of the clue book, players must complete a mini-game to get hints. This allows players to have fun while seeking strategies.

The most praiseworthy thing about Machinarium is its delicate hand-painted style. And the "rusty punk flavor" of the game is very fascinating.

When in this game, players seem to adventure with the main character along with the adventure, moving forward together, together with the confusion of the various puzzles, together with the beautiful scenery of the era of the big machine. Over time, people simply forget that this is a game, but more like watching a movie.

Cube Escape: Seasons

Cube Escape: Seasons is a Dutch independent game development team Rusty Lake production and distribution of a room escape game.

The story takes place in a quiet house, where the player has to follow the time track of spring 1964, summer 1971, autumn 1971 and winter 1981, investigate the happenings in the house and try to save the owner from being killed.

The game's music and voice have always been the strong points of the "Cube Escape" series, the game in different seasons creates different BGM, sometimes soothing and sometimes bizarre. When the player explores the truth of the puzzle, the game's voice will absolutely amaze you.

Cube Escape: Seasons as the first game of the puzzle series, for the rest of the story laid the groundwork. The whole series of stories with a certain horror component, if interested, players can download the entire series, enjoy the fun of decryption at the same time to explore the story across the last hundred years.

Valiant Hearts: The Great War

Among the five games introduced in this article, Valiant Hearts: The Great War may be one of the weaker games in terms of decryption, but it does have the most artistic value of all the games today.

It is a more realistic and realistic perspective to let everyone understand the World War I, through a warm story, to feel the warmth emanating from the darkest and most brutal disaster.

It is said that the creation of this work is inspired by the letters of an ordinary French family in the First World War preserved. In the game, we will mainly play such characters: Emile, a French peasant; Karl, a young German living in France, in love with Emile's daughter; Freddie, an American who joined the French army and is looking for his enemy; Anna, a Belgian nurse.

The story begins with the outbreak of World War I and Karl's forced repatriation to Germany. Soon after the lover of Karl lives is passed, Emile and Karl are forcibly conscripted into the French and German armies respectively.

Valiant Hearts: The Great War allows us to experience this cataclysm in human history through the eyes of a group of ordinary people, showing us the cruelty and darkness of war in a unique way. Like war games in general, Valiant Hearts does not shy away from violence and death, but expresses the bloody brutality of war in a more euphemistic, animated presentation.

Valiant Hearts will definitely be one of the most dazzling works in the history of human games. It proves to us that games as the ninth art, technology does not become the threshold to limit artistic expression, even if it is 2D graphics, but it shows a unique and powerful expressive power beyond latitude, beyond technology and even beyond time.
