Here’s a thing about indie developers. They’re not interested in taking over your living room, delivering all-in-one multimedia experiences to you, or getting you excited about cable TV shows. No, they’re in the business of making games. Games that sometimes tell fascinating stories, deliver satisfying challenge, and are fun to play. That’s about it, and there’s no real need for anything more. Ville Mönkkönen has been making and releasing interesting PC games for well over a decade now. Driftmoon, made in collaboration with his wife Anne, is his most elaborate work up to date, and with its amazing fairytale-like story, solid gameplay, and remarkable atmosphere, it’s safe to call it his masterpiece. It has everything that makes people love PC role-playing and adventure games, so if you missed it launch, make sure to give it a go today.
