Finally played Road 96 and I was hooked, finished it in three evenings, it was awesome!
I’m looking for recommendations of games with this main feature: replayability with different paths/choices that allows npc related story meta progression
Sorry for the convoluted description but hopefully you get what I mean. I don’t remember playing a game with such a structure before, where you’re playing different teenagers but meeting a recurring cast and seeing how they evolve. It was awesome, it’s kind of a rogue lite, but also more story / visual novel focused.
I guess Hades would fit? But I’m not necessarily looking for games with more emphasis on the roguelike part, nor a fully story focused game like Life is Strange, just the right mix between the two 🤔
Heading Out is a driving game where you are trying to make it across the country and there are lots of branching stories and paths based on your choices and who you meet along the way. It is quite stylised and really had me hooked when I first played it. Definitely worth a try! The end was quite memorable.
Keep Driving is a driving / road trip simulator. This one didn’t click as well with me and I couldn’t really get into it but it also had different paths and stories based on your different choice etc and may be worth checking out for you.
