15 Great But Simple Games With Intriguing Gameplay Mechanics

ABZU

Before The Pathless, Giant Squid Studios was known for ABZU, an underwater adventure where a single diver explores various environments. Eventually, she navigates the ruins of an ancient civilization, occasionally crossing paths with a great white shark. The player can accelerate and interact with other marine life, or latch onto larger marine life for a ride. It’s a very linear experience, but utterly gorgeous to behold.
