Well, adventure games sell well to casual gamers and require little skill to make, whether in programming or writing. The gameplay is basic and requires no innovation. A Russian adventure game is essentially an illustrated book that is almost not at all interactive - obviously, they aren't making games like The Last Express or Blade Runner.anus_pounder said:KalosKagathos said:Yeah, guys, count yourself lucky you were spared the terror of Russian adventure games.
Sounds interesting. Do tell.
Since these games are targeted at casual gamers and teenagers, the plot is generally centered around a popular franchise, a Soviet cartoon or a folk character. The idea is to put in as many Russian jokes and, possibly, to surprise the audience by using typically Russian characters in such a seemingly Western medium as games.
