Oh my, another game! But look, I learned about this for you. This is 'Return of the Obra Dinn,' a game that makes you think. My oldest son (15) didn't play this one, but he said it sounds like the kind of game I'd enjoy. So here I am, Papa Chaim to the rescue! Don't say I don't look out for you.
What is this game
Listen, this isn't some shooting or jumping game. It's more like a detective story. You're kind of a detective on a deserted ship called the 'Obra Dinn,' and you need to investigate what happened to all the people who were on it. Every character on the ship has a name, a role, and a story – and you try to figure out who died, how they died, and who is causing trouble here. It's all in black and white, kind of like old movies, and you really need to pay attention to small details to solve the mystery. It took me a week to understand what 'simulation' means, and in this, you're in a kind of simulation of an investigator.
