I am currently playing Road 96 and enjoy it quite a lot. I like the fact that it’s more or less an interactive film that doesn’t become boring because of the countless different mini-games. I also like how the world feels very immersive with music, sound and visuals and how you can have an impact on the story. What would you recommend as a comparable game?
I too played road96 through a few times. There isn’t much like it that I know of. One game is kind of similar, called Late Shift. And there is a second road96 game called Mile 0.
Well, I haven’t played Road 96 so I don’t know how similar the games are, but the stories are fantastic in the Telltale games.
The Walking Dead games are probably their best, with stories that carry over from game to game. The Wolf Among Us is another popular one, with a sequel on the way. Tales from the Borderlands is another one I particularly enjoyed.
You can buy a collection of the The Walking Dead games now, which would definitely be worth it if you’ve never played them.
Thanks for the recommendation. I played the first part but for me the pace was a little bit too slow and the gameplay in Road 96 was to me a little bit more exciting, because of the many different mini games.
