Indie games are nothing new, they have been rattling about since shareware (the first independent distribution solution). Recently though, there has been a trend towards the quirky and the creative. Steam started the trend and the console market followed suit. With such an vast selection of titles. its hard to stumble on the game for you! so hears my little run down of my top five indie games.
Castle Crashers
This game seems to do everything for me. From the stunning art direction to the flowing game play. using mechanics from classic titles like Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, it delivers a fast paced button mashing adventure from start to finish.
World of Goo
A simple puzzle based game. With a witty involving narrative to drive the game play. Get the Goo Balls home with bridge building skills and creative solutions. If your a fan of lemmings you best check this out.
Lucius
The dark Gothic tale of the son of Satan murdering his way though his stately home. What could be more fun! this Lovecraftien story of murder and occultism is bound to engage. Once you've burnt a mans face with an oven or crushed a dude under a piano, you will know point and click will never be the same again.
Trine 2
A graphically pleasing 2.4D side scrolling Adventure game. This beautifully executed gaming experience is topped off with challenging puzzles and tense combat. Inspired by the Lost Vikings games of ages past. Trine 2 delevers a not to be missed experience.
Hotline Miami
This weird and twisted talke brings you into a bad trip of a game. Spectrum inspire graphics and sound plunge you into a dark game of mass murders and 8-Bit madness. Defiantly one to check out if your a fan of house masks
