Allyson Johnson has been playing “Flower” (PS4)
It has been established that I don’t have a good grasp on how to go about video games. I get Mario Kart, but otherwise I need a lot of instruction and I need to a game that isn’t too long that won’t lose my focus. Enter, Flower! The PS4 remaster of this game quite literally serves no purpose other than to turn a generic landscape into something visually stunning. I didn’t even realize there were levels at first. The aerial point of view as you take flight coupled with the gorgeous score kept me captivated for a game that falls on the short side. It’s perfect for if you’re deciding between what you want to watch on Netflix or just need something to do to kill the time. Created by Nicholas Clark and That Game Company, Flower was originally a spiritual successor to Flow, and is a gorgeously rendered game that is simple enough for this newbie, but certainly engaging enough for the gaming experts as well.
