5. Beyond Earth

Beyond Earth 01

Founding a city in an alien world

Sure, it’s a Civilization game, but it’s different enough to deserve a spot on this list.

Beyond Earth is set 600 in the future, when we’ve screwed Earth up so bad that we’re forced to flee it to find another planet to live on. Only upon finding such a place, we begin fighting amongst ourselves again like the petulant brats that we are.

You’re responsible for the growth of one of several alliances, ranging from the American Reclamation Corporation to the People’s African Union. Navigating a map consisting of hexagonal tiles, you then explore your new home, expand your territory, and deal with the other factions. There are also technologies to research, cities to found, and many other activities.

Then there are the Affinities – philosophies you can develop which then influence your technological advancement. For example, Harmony prioritizes co-existence with nature, awarding you the ability to domesticate indigenous life forms and genetically alter your people’s DNA. Purity is all about perfecting mankind, so their military units use mechanical exoskeletons and powerful energy weapons.

An excellent game that, like a black hole, will suck away hundreds of hours of your life.

Beyond Earth 02

Terror from the deep

Beyond Earth 03

for Trials evolution: The bikers and stunners are going to get an ultimate experience by driving the motorbikes at superlative level. All the stunts and roadway fun that is just seen in television, is just a click away boys. Get ready to feel the splash and enter the arena with full of energy and fun loving bikers with the stunt maniacs. Its the craziest gaming experience ever. And the adaptations are even easier than any other bikers game. Racing is totally different than riding a bike, this is the first ever game where riding is experienced at the superlative temperament.

for Thomas was alone: A hilarious experience of being flat as a rectangle. I literally got the feeling of viewing the world with a body having the backbone same as the stomach and being flat as a paper. Initially, in the imagination of the maker, I thought even I would go flat and solve the mystery of being so, in the world of Thomas itself. Though the game is named, Thomas was alone. I was always standing by him and experiencing the illusion world created by the gamer. I was converted to 2D by flattening myself, but I was experiencing a 5D effect by actually playing it.

What a game it is! full of thrill and suspense ranging from entering the city to save the girl which is located on the 9th cloud, to find his own conspiracy of living. He indulges with tonnes of difficulties but he surely copes up with all and finds Elizabeth and bring her back down, pay his debt with full dignity and giving the message to young generation that: " Come what may! Never ever turn the back around the difficulties and hardships you face." I would definitely have one such masterpiece in my games wallet. for Bioshock Infinite.
