10 Video Games That Gave You God-Like Powers
1. Psychonauts
Ah summer camp, all those nights out under the stars (or fog if you were in England), all those mountain walks (or trips to Tescos if you were in England) and chatting with your friends by firelight (skip fire. England). What a time to be alive eh?
Well, now imagine all of that but with superpowers added into the mix. This is what makes the absolutely brilliant Psychonauts so utterly entertaining as when you take control of Raz you also gain the option to learn Telekinesis, Pyrokinesis, Levitation, Shield, Confusion, and more!
How the game blends all of these powers into its platforming and puzzle-solving creates some truly wonderful moments, with you leaping high over obstacles or rolling around on a bubble of thought using levitation or causing chaos with a well-placed confusion grenade. Imagine having access to these powers as a kid! Couple this with a door that lets you enter other people's minds, which lets you quite literally shape the thoughts of others by helping them process emotional baggage!
Power AND the chance to do good with it to earn a scout badge? Perfect!
