It's more than just how you play the kickstarter crowd. Introversion have a knack of writing really playable games. Darwinia was incredible.

- datruth29 11y agoNot just playable games, but also games that are different from the usual stuff you see. Was there any hacking type games like Uplink before Introversion released it?
- Vaskivo 11y agoI agree. Darwinia was a shooter/strategy game set inside virtual world. Even Defcon is unconventional. A game about nuclear war and mutual assured destruction with a retro asthetic.
- gedrap 11y ago>>> Even Defcon is unconventional. A game about nuclear war and mutual assured destruction with a retro asthetic Don't forget the soundtrack! It added a lot to the game atmosphere :)
- bemmu 11y agoEspecially the woman in the background who starts to weep as the first missiles hit their targets.
- gedrap 11y agoThe weeping woman, the cough. Damn I am so tempted to play it again (does it make me a heartless psycho?), but I am at work :( This is a great example of how some well though out details can play a massive role. Would the game be the same without the soundtrack, with the sounds of crying and coughing? It still would be a good game but not THAT good.
- kqr 11y ago> but I am at work :( You do realise that you are talking about the game with a work panic button built in, right?
