It's generally accepted that movies can be good food for our brains, especially those that pose us with interesting scenarios or dilemmas (so nothing found in your typical Michael Bay blockbuster then). What about games though? After all, games are becoming more cinematic on a yearly basis with advances in technology and a new drive to show that they've moved on from just high scores; can games have a similar effect on the mind? Can they dominate your thoughts and leave you questioning seemingly minor details weeks after completion? Absolutely. Just like movies, games offer us a portal into worlds we will never get to experience. Generally speaking, the majority of games that are released to high acclaim nowadays are those that dare to tell an impacting story; the kind usually reserved for the big screen. In the same way that a good book is hard to put down, some games are too engaging to stop playing; we want to see what happens to the characters and how the story plays out. Sometimes that can leave us with sleepless nights as we play the scenes over and over again, trying to dissect every line of dialogue and vague hint that the developers threw at us before unleashing their big twists. The thought-provoking nature of games isn't discussed very often it's arguably the highlight of the experience.
