As Dusk Falls
Xbox, PlayStation, PC
Aimed at older players (16 and up, really), As Dusk Falls is a co-op game for when the kids have gone to bed. It’s an interactive movie, but…you know, good. Made just last year, what makes this Xbox-published game so interesting is that key decisions can be made by consensus.
Set across a span of time, starting in the 1980s and ending in the early 2010s, this is a tale of the effects of a burglary gone wrong on two families, and its extensive aftermath. It’s all high-action and emotional intrigue. Even more intriguing, when it comes to making pivotal choices, everyone in the room with a smartphone can volunteer their opinion of what to do, with the majority ruling, the rest living with the consequences.
