Games finally have their Understanding Comics, and it’s called… Understanding Games! Pixelate has created an utterly charming series that teaches some of the basic concepts behind games by playing games. The graphics and music are top notch!
I think in a perfect world all the lessons would be finished and combined into a single game that had more interactivity from the outset. For the most part it feels more like a series of cutscenes with little games in the middle. But these are grievances I level at Understanding Games with no small amount of guilt, considering how original and polished it is.
There are three episodes out right now, check them out here:
