Grounded likes to play up the wonder and magic of being a tiny person in a bug’s world, but there’s a dark side to this game that players really ought to prepare themselves for. We got our first look at Grounded, the new survival game from Obsidian, a few months ago. The game has a certain Honey I Shrunk The Kids vibe since that’s basically the plot: you’re a shrunken down kid that has to survive and figure out a way of turning yourself back to normal....

They simply don’t make games like The Last of Us or Batman: Arkham Asylum. That said, there is plenty of charm and narrative in their games for players to get invested. Seeing Mario soar through space in Super Mario Galaxy to stop Bowser and save Peach or Kirby trying to save his planet from a mechanized invasion in Kirby: Planet Robobot are both unique and well-crafted enough to give a reason for players to keep marching on....
