This year is the year I tried out games but not the mainstream games. I do find a bunch of these games very exciting. How I'll rate it is the enjoyment I got upon buying it and what I experienced before the updates.
5. SpaceChem
This took about a week of my time of me playing it but just usually every hour per day. I like the uniqueness of the puzzles and hey, I get to remember the periodic table again. It does not only have just puzzles but some slight 'boss fights' which require more application and time. I would say if you are very huge fan of puzzle games. Do try this out.
4. Bastion
The graphics. The story. The voice. The gameplay. The music. All is wondrous when you play it. The music is just awesome and most of its song made it to my MP3 for once. I never listened to much game soundtracks till today. With different kinds of weapon to explore and different kinds of atmosphere, totally one of the best moments I had in my gaming life.
3. Dungeons of Dredmor
This is considered the very first roguelike I have tried and it is one of the best of roguelikes I have ever played. The witty humor and range of weapons plus skills that come along with it, helps you build your character into something powerful!!.... or you could just die being hit by a lil batty and diggle. The replayability is endless with dungeons randomized every single time you play. Try this game out if you like the sheer difficulty and humor of your own death... in game that is.
2. Terraria
True it has building mechanics like Minecraft but this game has one extra thing: Goals. You get started with a pickaxe and an axe. Next goal? Build a house. Before you know it, your goal would be to find hellforges or a fiery flail in the depths of hell. This game has loads of injected into it and even better when played in Multiplayer. Even though it is in a two dimensional world, it still suits me in a great playing style.
1. The Binding of Isaac
True it is gross. True it is disturbing. If it sends distaste and gross to you, Team Meat did their job right. Anyways, apart from the gore and squelches, I'll say this is one of the best games I have ever played. Having to keep retrying to get the best items or even more items, also having to find out what new bosses I can encounter. There are even items that kill you or just slow you down. The feeling of wanting to play this game more and more causes the player to tenaciously resume their playing streak to get all the items in hand. I'll say once again, this is the best indie game I have ever enjoyed in 2011.
More reviews of 2011 coming in 2 days time where I'll reveal the Top 5 Mainstream Games that made it for me.
NOTE: All these are just my personal opinions and what I feel is fun to me. What you think is fun to you may be different and in a whole different story. Do take that in mind.
