The game progresses by choices and episodes. These choices are made by the player who guides the main character, Clementine through a zombie apocalypse.
The choices you make in the previous seasons, DLCs and episodes will all alter the conclusion. It can be something as little as a conversation or a vital quick time event that could cause you to lose a character. Either way, in the long run they could equally be important.
When it comes to choices, you’ll always have the option to stay quiet or do nothing. That also causes a chain reaction in the story, positively or negatively. Guessing is the only thing you can depend on in this game.
Well doesn’t that look appetizing!
The game trains you to always think ahead, because there’s no going back.
10. Five Nights at Freddy’s
This doesn’t seem like a good idea…
If you thought these were just innocent cute stuffed animals strolling around a pizzeria, you thought wrong!
Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF) is the perfect semi-horror game. It isn’t gory, not too scary and has just the right amount of adorable, I mean, just look at Chica’s cupcake!

Can you survive the night?
The player cannot move from the office in which you are put in. The only way to defend yourself is to use the Cameras to track where the animatronics are and the doors to shut them out. But be careful, you only have a limited amount of power. If that runs out nothing will work or close leaving you out in the open to die.
9. Ori and the Blind Forest

Can we fund this? We need portal guns and heel springs!
The way portals work are pretty simple to remember. The same speed you go in is the same speed at which you’ll come out. Ok, that’s it, you can go home now. In order to gain momentum to “fly” over objects you have to increase the speed when you enter the portal. You can jump off of objects or use multiple portals for this case.
Portals have no designated entrance or exit. It can be used as both.
GLaDOS a.k.a. an advanced Siri.
During the passing of level you’re being watched by the ever so wonder AI, GLaDOS. The closest thing you have to human interaction is her weirdly dark humor and her blunt comments.
