Their walkie-talkie conversations, and separate views of the landscape, make these characters feel like two halves of a whole, adding up to a haunting trek through nature. Indie game developer Campo Santo manages this brilliantly as both the Ranger and Delilah independently observe and report on the goings-on across Yellowstone. The hat trick of balancing compelling gameplay and character development between two people who never actually meet is no easy task. As players explore the colorful, stylized world of Yellowstone, a deeper story unravels and a complex friendship grows. The ranger's only companion is his supervisor Delilah, a voice over a walkie-talkie.
Firewatch is among the best, focusing on a single park ranger patrolling Yellowstone National Park in 1989. Why it's great: The story-driven adventure game is making a comeback, despite a landscape loaded with first-person shooter and fantasy roleplaying titles.
