New Frontiers: Welcome to the world of indie games

I'd never appreciated an indie game until recently. Sure, I'd played a few – FTL: Faster Than Light, Deadlight (which I've reviewed), and Limbo - but until my recent purchases of Mark of the Ninja and Monaco, I never really had that feeling of “Wow, this could actually be one of my favourite games, up there with the rest of the bigger budget triple-A titles I've come to love over the years.”

This comes at a good time. Lately, spending £30-£40 on bigger titles has left me feeling hard done by; instead, I wait for them to be included in a Steam sale or pick them up second-hand in a store. But indie games are cheaper, ranging from anywhere between £5-£20 at launch, yet containing just as much fun and content as the big titles.

Monaco, that's where I've been... Well, not in reality, I have actually been super-incredibly-overwhelmingly busy, hence why I haven't posted for a while. Sorry.

Anyway, in the time I haven't been posting blog updates, I have managed to play Monaco. 'What the devil is that, Adam?', I hear you cry. I will tell you, good sir/madam!
