Flower

It's not hard to tell from looking at my previous blogs, that I'm not the biggest gamer in the world, but the games I have experienced have often for me not been about fighting, difficulty or completing missions. For me the games I have spoken about all have something in common, they are all visually stunning.

Flower is a game that is even more relaxing to play than Journey. It is a game by the same company that again features no villains, and no conquest to challenging. Instead it too is a game that encourages players to view video games in an entirely different way. You basically control the wind and try to collect as many flower petals as possible. The visuals are not especially ground breaking, in fact many of the backgrounds are incredibly simple yet it looks visually gorgeous and as you play it you will find yourself wanting to spend time in these landscapes.
