You’d take point, because you can talk the guards down. We would go in through the back, where it’s easy to pick the lock. The plan was to play it by the book: mask up, get in and get out. Rated M (Mature) for blood, intense violence, strong language and suggestive themes Lucas Popeĭeveloped by Overkill Software/Starbreeze

In Papers, Please, players control a border checkpoint. You’re constantly earning new and better abilities that allow you to soar ever higher. The ascent is exhilarating, but you’ll probably fail. The more effectively you attack, the swifter you fly. You are attempting to go ever higher by bouncing yourself off enemies that are flying up from below. You’re a knight trying to ascend a tower. As with Doodle Jump, you can even tilt your tablet to help yourself along, rocking right to move to the right, and left to move to the left. Knightmare Tower builds off an earlier popular mobile game, Doodle Jump.

Rated 9+ (Players 9 and older) for cartoon or fantasy violence Some hopeful immigrants might be tourists. The mobile game Knightmare Tower, designed for short sessions, builds off Doodle Jump. Is the visa current? Is that the right permit? You’re given documents with information, along with a guidebook, and you have to make sure that everything checks out. Passing through immigration checkpoints can be a drag, but have you ever thought about what it must be like for the inspectors? In Lucas Pope’s understated indie game Papers, Please, you must examine documents and determine whether people can pass through the checkpoint. And this is it being goofy: The so-called ’Merica gun shoots bullets and fireworks, and the dubstep gun shoots lasers in sync with the music. Saints Row IV is also about making hard decisions as president, like whether to punch a White House official in the genitals or in the face. It’s about liberating the virtual city of Steelport and vindicating the human race. It’s about cracking jokes and listening to music and plotting revenge. Or wearing revealing outfits to show off your tattoos, like the giant “BOOM” in a comic-book font on your leg. Or flipping off your enemies before you kill them. The point is seeing how much damage you can get away with before being killed. Saints Row isn’t about a complex narrative.
