Firewatch (Hover)
The year is 1989. You are a man named Henry who has retreated from his messy life to work as a fire lookout in the Wyoming wilderness. Perched high atop a mountain, it’s your job to look for smoke and keep the wilderness safe.
Well, I have mixed feelings and downwards. The game has very nice artwork and a good premise. It starts with a promising story and a good tutorial. But up to there. The story slows down to a halt and leaves much to be desired. As a park ranger is almost nothing there to do, some random events would be nice, except the main storyline. You don't even see a wild animal, except some birds in the background And at the conclusion I thought it was a waste of my money and my time. Which is sad because the game making team tried their best. I enjoyed SOMA or ADR1FT more, which are games with narrative and similar concepts.
