The latest entry in The Layton Series of puzzle games Professor Layton and the Lost Future is coming to mobile on July 13th, 2020. Brought by Level-5 Inc. the staple of the game is in their exciting yet unique puzzles, created by ‘Akira Tago’ the best-selling author of the ‘Atama no Taisou’ books.
Video games are typically always about being fun but along the way as video games got bigger some developers decided to try doing something more, by taking the gamers on an emotional trip.
When you go into TLOU with no knowledge of what's going to happen next, the first 20 minutes hits like a truck.
Even the scene where Joel and Tommy go chasing after Ellie after she stole the horse, the confrontation between her and Joel did make me tear up to be completely honest. We need more games that can pull off that sort of emotional attachment.
No pong? That game was emotional AF.
A good list though.
*Spoilers*
I found parts of the DanganRonpa games to be quite emotional specifically the parts with Sayaka Maizono from DR1, that shit teaches you to not get attached to any characters in that series fairly quickly. It's like a goddamn blood bath by the end of it.
Oh and Persona 4 when Nanako ends up in hospital, I swear that's the first time I've ever shed a tear over a game. Fantastic writing.
Original Gamer: "Professor Layton might appears to be a Mr. Goody Two-Shoes, but after playing through one of his games, Eduardo thinks he's kind of a jerk."
