New fantastic sidescrollers + free games

[Seven]

Hello,

I always liked to play good sidescroller games and as many of you know, there have been some magnificent released recently:

Without a doubt a masterpiece: Trine + Trine 2


Followed by the fantastic remake of Giana Sisters: Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams


Now a new game was released wich joins seamlessly into these great games:
Max: The Curse of Brotherhood


Playthrough on Xbox one (but game is also available for PC). Action begins at 2:30 min:

It is really great to see what is possible with a "simple sidescroller game".
I highly recommend to try one of these, or at least watch a playthrough clip.
And the best: All of these games are less than 15 €.



=====================================


Blizzard gives away these famous old sidescrollers games for free now:

The Lost Vikings


Blackthorne



Maybe this is interesting for some of you.

Hello Seven,
these are some nice jump n runs.
But dont forget Giana Sisters Rise of the owlverlord.
Its great!


Just 4,99€ on GOG!!


I like Lost Vikings very much. was one of the best games I play on my C= amiga (500, 500+, 600 and my 2000) in the 90s!.
There was a other series I loved, Shadow of the Beast.



P.S:
Im back and everything is fine. I cant find the end of the world.

Spelunky!

Spelunky has to be my favorite pick as of late. I love it! It's a different game every time you play. I was playing it for a little bit on my youtube channel (gamegrave.tv), I should really get back to that.

A couple others that are totally worth checking out are:

• Shank 1 and 2, which are 2d brawling games and lots of fun.
• Mark of the Ninja, if you're looking for some stealthiness.
• Super Meat Boy, if you need more challenge in your platformers
• Dust: An Elysian Tail if you'd like a beautiful looking RPG style 2d sidescroller.

EDIT: And of course, all of the games mentioned so far are really good too.
