“The Path is very strange. I'm not sure what the point in it all is, but I like the style and atmosphere of it all.”

“Wandered the woods aimlessly, was mostly a project to test my streaming capabilities, but in any case, I may try to stream stuff more regularly, we'll see.”

“Wee, I did a whole Let's Play on this game. Craaazy game. Confusing as heck.”

The Path (PC) by: MythosEngineer

“One of the creepiest games I have played. I didn't expect much going in to it, but after I realised you have to break the only rule in the game, & began exploring the forest... oh man. The sounds, the graphics, the way the screen fuzzes... very...”

“Interesting art/game/narrative/interactive experiment or pretentious pile of dung? I have yet to decide.”

The Path (PC) by: Kossak

“After a while it's quite boring. Maybe because it's actually not a game... i don't know how to call this, maybe an interactive movie.”

The Path (PC) by: Norikue

“This is a very strange "game". It's very artistic and it does play into your own psyche by only making suggestions in scenes. Don't play this expecting any traditional game play. It doesn't exist in this game at all. Fun, creepy and...”

Steam's Indie Game Sale by: Alphacat

“So, I got Steam's indie game pack this past weekend. I already had a few of the games in it, but it was still a heck of a deal. Working on playing my way through them.”

“@Grondhammar Well if I helped even one person find something then I guess the random post was worth it.”

“What did you think of Braid or World of Goo?”

“@QforQ Braid and World of Goo were two of the games that I had already from the indie game pack before I got it, so I guess that says something.

Braid was pretty much awesome in every way. I actually bought the game twice. Once on XBLA, and then again on Steam, when I lost access to my brother's 360. It throughly explores the time-rewinding mechanic in many mind-bending ways, and the graphical and audio atmosphere is just superb.

World of Goo has a quirky sense of humor that really appeals to me, and it's fun to just experiment with different solutions and find newer and better ways to solve the puzzles.”

“How was/is Crayon Physics Deluxe? I really enjoy new ideas and creative gaming, and that definitely... looks interesting. The video on the website makes it look good and all, but I've certainly found game videos to not always be the most accurate. Sometimes you watch a video that makes the game look great, and it's actually horrible.”

“@TheTot - it's definitely a great idea, but I played it for a while and found myself getting bored quickly. I think the problem is that the options here are pretty tiny. You draw things that all behave the same, then they drop via a gravity engine and hit other things. The end.

Adding something as simple as the ability to specify materials while drawing (stone, elastic, water, etc) and save/load-your-creation functionality would improve replayability a huge amount.

“Thanks! You answered pretty much my only question, if it would get bored quickly. That was the one thing that was keeping me from buying it.”

“This is not a game per se, but rather a interactive AI simulator, sandboxed in a darker earlier version of the Little Red Riding Hood universe. It's fun just to explore the world, unveiling it's secrets, spiced by nice gfx and sound. 7 girls, 1 wolf.”

“@SilentSwish Actually, I've paid $9.99 on Steam... And it have been on sale for quite some time. As of why I paid for it, well... because I liked the design of it and how it is executed. It's intriguing and reminiscent of the Pathologic somehow, which I really loved.”
