Mostly because, I fail at them and they make me ragequit. \ud83d\ude1b<br \/>\nBut if you do like them, you&#8217;ll like The Bridge. The game of physics and mind-fucking madness.<br \/>\nHowever, this game.. wow. It&#8217;s so amazingly done! It is a wonderful play on words, and the music is fantastic. You play the literally twisted reality, of the one that discovered gravity by falling asleep under a cherry tree, and having an apple hit him on the head; Sir Issac Newton.<br \/>\nHaving just discovered gravity, you take Newton to his house where you do a series of physics tests(don&#8217;t question, just go with it). You can rotate the camera which changes the force of gravity in the level. You must help Newton to doors to escape these twisted realities.<br \/>\nSome doors require a key or two to enter, and you must manipulate gravity to get them.<br \/>\nIf you screw up, you also have control of time itself and can rewind time to reverse your untimely death. So, there is no permadeath.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also what Newton calls his &#8220;nemesis&#8221;, which is a living boulder with eyes. You soon learn that you need your enemy to assist you. If you lose it, you won&#8217;t have it to assist you. It&#8217;s like a Yin-Yang thing. Balance. One cannot live without the other. It&#8217;s the exact thing as I&#8217;ve said for most games that fall short, that &#8220;don&#8217;t have a point&#8221;.<br \/>\nWhat&#8217;s the point of being a hero, when there&#8217;s no evil villain to defeat? What&#8217;s the point of living, when there&#8217;s no risks in life? Every good thing must have a bad thing, or balance is out of whack. There can never be complete peace.<br \/>\nYet, don&#8217;t tell me this when it comes to the beta server of WoD. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p>Completing each chapter, gives you a famous quote from Newton in his own words.<\/p>\n<p>So, that&#8217;s about it for this game. You should definitely try it out. It might question your own existence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not a fan of puzzle games.
