This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

I am currently playing Road 96 and enjoy it quite a lot. I like the fact that it's more or less an interactive film that doesn't become boring because of the countless different mini-games. I also like how the world feels very immersive with music, sound and visuals and how you can have an impact on the story. What would you recommend as a comparable game?

Have you played any of the TellTale games?

Well, I haven't played Road 96 so I don't know how similar the games are, but the stories are fantastic in the Telltale games.

The Walking Dead games are probably their best, with stories that carry over from game to game. The Wolf Among Us is another popular one, with a sequel on the way. Tales from the Borderlands is another one I particularly enjoyed.

You can buy a collection of the The Walking Dead games now, which would definitely be worth it if you've never played them.
