15 Great But Simple Games With Intriguing Gameplay Mechanics

Firewatch

Campo Santo’s debut hit seems little more than a walking sim with gorgeous visuals, and in terms of controls, you wouldn’t be wrong. However, the range of choices and conversations that fire lookout Henry can engage in, especially as he gets closer to supervisor Delilah, lends complexity to the experience. There’s also the core mystery to solve, as a mysterious entity seemingly shadows the two and knows their every move. Overall, a worthwhile story that doesn’t ask too much of you.
