When I got my hands on the PlayStation 4 version of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, as with all adventure games you never know what to expect but also at the same time have a vague idea of how it will play out. In fact, I recently just gave Grim Fandango Remastered a perfect score, in a plot to convince our dear readers that they absolutely must play this game, whether they are newcomers or long-time fans. Or that classics like Maniac Mansion, Space Quest, or the Monkey Island series need to be revitalized. I would tell you that games like The Longest Journey, Syberia, and Grim Fandango are among the best games I’ve ever played. They’re the kind of game where I feel obligated to almost sell it in a review, as it’s a genre frequently forgotten and generally unappreciated. If I’m being upfront, I would say I tend to rate adventure games highly. There’s something unique about the adventure genre, wherein you are often left confused, sometimes frustrated, but always intrigued to press on. I love being placed in a mysterious world with a not-so-clear sense of purpose or design. If there’s one thing I can say surely about my favorite kind of games, it’s that I love a good adventure.
