  Dead By Daylight Dead By Daylight is a pretty simple game that I've recently played with some friends, each match is a 1v4. Four survivors must power up 5 generators to power some locked doors to make their escape and survive. Each survivor has skills and perks that they can eventually lock to make this easier, however the killers can do the same. It makes an already interesting concept more interesting as gameplay changes quite frequently. In a way this game reminded me slightly of roleplaying games, when I was with friends because you can literally play as popular movie characters such as Michael Myers. It was enjoyable to see how much effort the developers put into making those famous killers really feel like those well killers. For example Michael is quiet and you may be doing a generator and you look behind you and you see Michael stalking, just like he would in the movies or the Pig from saw uses the famous reverse bear traps. Because of this it is capable of making a playe...

 Legends of Runeterra   Legends of Runeterra is a card game that is based off the lore surrounding the game "League of Legends" League of Legends released on October 27th 2009 and since became the most played video game globally and over the last decade has expanded and changed the competitive e-sports scene, but over the years it also developed pages and pages of lore developing regions, cultures, characters, etc till it eventually became a very richly built world. The reason I came to look at this game is it has inspired me to look at a way of adapting even more of the lore that the writers have created into gameplay. The first ever game that was not based on league was this game "legends of Runeterra" which is a card game using characters from the league of legends universe to battle each other, albeit none of the events would be cannon it creates some cool scenarios as each card has voice lines, and some of the champions when they reach certain conditions go thr...

  Phasmophobia is a game I've recently checked out with a couple of friends, and was quite surprised at how immersive the game can be. Most games you have the controller, and the game displayed on the TV screen but in this game you've got to speak to do certain things, such as Calling out a Ghost's name or asking questions like "Show me a Sign". When you move past just using hardware and actually begin talking to the ghost it becomes like a real entity as immersion takes over. My friend Jesus asked the particular ghost we were "hunting" "where are you" and on a Scanner we hear the ghost say "Behind" and then Jesus continues and say "Show yourself" and... well everything start flickering, doors lock and eventually it ends in our dear friend's death. Immersion is a really big thing when it comes to certain games, RPG'S it is a core concept but in games like this, it may be really important and games should continue fin...

  Marvel's Spider-Man and Transmediation Marvel's Spider-Man game by Insomniac is a prime example of Transmediation, the game itself ties into the Marvel movies that have released over the past two decades, which were also based on the original comic books. Within this game you can see several tie ins to the Marvel movies for example one can spot Stark Towers.  This Spiderman game takes place at least eight years into Spiderman's career, (the same one we see in the movies) This detail also makes gameplay feel "better" as playing a more experienced Spiderman, can make the game feel more "fluid".  Personally I have not yet played this game and likely will not but I would encourage Spiderman fans to check out a playthrough if they don't have access to playing it as it does add to the overall Marvel story, and allows us to get a glimpse into the potential future of the Marvel universe. Also fun fact, Spiderman Miles Morales, also experiences this. Most o...
