We (the wife and I) like playing console games — we especially like co-op games that we can both play at once. But we hate split-screen co-op since we get confused as to who is on which part of the screen 😛
So we are kind of limited on the games we can play. Because of that, when we have nothing else to play, we do try single-player games …
Yesterday was one such day where we tried a bunch of single-player games on PS5 to see if we can find something that we liked.
First up was, “Outriders” — the graphics looked great, it was a science-fiction storyline and so we thought we might like it. Unfortunately, it’s a mostly “shooting” game. You have to keep shooting people to advance and we don’t like that kind of game much …
Sure, we don’t mind if there’s some combat, but we prefer a storyline, puzzles, exploration, that kind of thing …
So, we tried “ReadySet Heroes” next. This one was co-op, but split screen. Given that we didn’t have a lot of choices, we decided to give it a try. But unfortunately, it was just dungeon crawling. No story, nothing of interest unless you just like mindlessly bashing things. Next!
The last one we tried was “Omno” and here we hit the Goldilocks zone … almost 😛 It was single-player, but it wasn’t frantic shooting/button mashing. It had a gentle, explore-at-your-pace kind of gameplay and lots of puzzles. Sure, we had to pass the controller back and forth between us but we still enjoyed it way more than any of the others and that’s the one we stuck with for the rest of the day 🙂
