Crow Country
I’m a sucker for a game that looks and feels vintage, and Crow Country is definitely that. Styled after PS1 games, and more specifically classic Resident Evil, it features a low-poly look, fixed camera angles, and obscure puzzles that feel like true sendups of the survival-horror genre’s roots. It’s the latest in a recent string of indie success stories that have been deliberate throwbacks, showing that there’s an audience for the stuff that we thought we’d outgrown, when really there’s a place for the old and new. To see what I mean, pick up Crow Country while it’s $16 right now.
