The game, with its comic-book layout and intuitive design, is a remarkable display of illustration and storytelling. The stakes rise as the story progresses, and while you’re not really making any decisions for Florence, you are moving her along. All through the game, you tap or swipe your screen to brush Florence’s teeth, like photos on social media, tidy up rooms, or send objects into storage when the couple moves in. The story is heart wrenching in its familiarity, but it’s the way it is told - and how invested you become - that is truly striking. 25-year-old Florence falls in love with a cellist named Krish. This is a game that doubles up as an interactive love story. The scenery is distractingly gorgeous - thankfully, the game’s extremely forgiving Zen mode option lets you focus on the views without chasing coins or worrying about crashing. (Harry Nesbitt, the lead artist and developer behind the game, took two years to design Alto’s Adventure.) While Alto’s Adventure involves snowboarding across snowy vistas, Odyssey is set in deserts.
Released in 2018, the Apple Design Award-winning Odyssey is a sequel to Alto’s Adventure, and both come with highly stylized landscapes for you to glide through. In the gaming world, Alto’s Odyssey holds high rank as one of the most beloved and beautifully designed games. Presenting: the mobile games we’ve found to be visually stunning, in alphabetical order. Of course, the gaming universe is gigantic, so this is by no means an exhaustive list. They’ve all got something wonderful about them, and we hope, whether or not you’re a regular gamer, that you find something you enjoy. We curated a list of games, produced by independent studios (which also means they may not all be free, but are very worth the investment), that are aesthetically exquisite, highly immersive, and seek to tell great stories. This also means that the phenomenal Candy Crush Saga - and its slew of related games - come with free, unlimited lives this week, that there are massive discounts on purchases of PC games, and several premium games are free on the Apple store right now. Sometimes, it can be beneficial to take time out and immerse yourself in another world - even if it is through that same little screen in your hand.Ĭurrently, as we spend all our time on our screens at home, global gaming giants have joined hands to help slow the spread of COVID-19 by disseminating guidelines on safety and social distancing from the World Health Organisation. The world can be a strange place - and our phones, with all their dings through the day, are an unending source of news and notifications.
