Independant Gaming - Those games your wife won't play!

in gaming •  8 years ago 

Hey Steemains,

Here's my list of independant games my wife won't play.

You know that feeling when you find the perfect game and wanna spend hours on it.
Just because it's way too fun!
Then you wanna share it with the world. Share it with the person next to you.
Well even the perfect game won't be for everyone!

Here's the list I'd like to share with you:

Captain Forever:

This is an abstract space top down shooter. It is beautiful of simplicity. The main mechanic is that you can build your ship from broken pieces of your enemies. You'll find blasters, boosters and structure flying around. You can pick them up and attach them how ever you want. Brilliant!

This is a solo game but believe it or not... It's free! Go try it out now if you feel bored or intrigued!

Hotline Miami

Beware! This is not a game for kids. It's tough... It's rough. There will be blood!
It reminds me of the very first GTA. Here you take the role of a masked amateur hitman.
Every mission is a new challenge and bloody mess. Stealth is almost impossible!
I only tried the first one. Hotline Miami 2 includes more guns from what I read.

If your looking for a game to play with friends. This could be epic. Unless they don't like tose kind of games like my wife! ;-)
You are a member of a space crew and with your android or ios device (connected via wifi or bluetooth) you are given specific instructions to complete. The problem is the button to press is not on your device! A game of communication and structure.
Very fun and playable up to 12! I said it... Epic!

Last but not least. What has become to me a classic! Broforce! This is an action packed side scrolling shooter themed on movie stars from the 90's. They are all working together like in Expandables to kill terrorists.
What's fun in this game is that you keep on changing characters. You are then forced to adapt to the special moves even when you're not fan of it.
Playable up to 4 with keyboard or xbox controllers for pc. This has been hours of fun for me.
They have a free demo on their website (freelives.com) if you want to try it out.

That's it for today.
I had tons of others but I'll leave it to that for this time.
I guess the reason why my wife won't play it is probably due to pixel graphics and theme.
She does play Gears of War and Cal of Duty with me so we're fine!;-)

Does your significant other play video games with you?
What do think of the games I listed?
Any other I should try out?

Thanks for reading,
See you on the other side,
