8 Video Games You Had To Beat More Than Once To Understand

8. Stella Glow

Occasionally a game will come along with not only a super convoluted storyline that demands a second playthrough to piece together, but will also provide you with some exceptional character development that you could never see coming.

Stella Glow for the 3DS is such a game, in that it uses the concept of a repeat playthrough to not only flesh out the story of a young adventurer looking to unite Four Witches in order to save his homeland from a great evil but also allows you to play through with the knowledge of one of your former allies late-game betrayal while picking up on new clues and hints throughout.

I adore this concept, that the devs tweaked and altered some of this wolf in sheep's clothing lines so that they become even more suspicious on a repeat playthrough, highlighting the fact that the team knew you'd not be as shocked at the reveal this second time around.

It becomes a joy to hunt down the differences and in many ways "completes" the story as we learn more about them and the world surrounding your party, leading to a super satisfying go-around.
