Journey isnt a particularly easy game to describe; providing more of a transient experience than anything of a hardcore challenge, this 2012 indie came out of nowhere to win the hearts of critics worldwide and rightfully sweep most of that year's gaming awards. A puzzling adventure game at heart, you have the option to either brave Journeys short campaign alone or with the aid of an online helper but youll never find out their name, or even talk to them for that matter. Instead, communication is boiled down to musical chimes that allow you to work together to figure out the nuances of this hugely emotional experience. Boasting a simple but beautiful art style and an absolutely spectacular score, there aren't any parts of the game that don't live up to the hype that - strange for the game industry - has only grown larger and larger since the title's initial release. Even though youll probably only play through it once, youll never forget what it felt like to uncover the secrets and beat the puzzles of this stunning title.
