Walking Simulator

Walking Simulator is a deliberately simple game that does exactly what its title promises: you walk. There are no armies to command, princesses to rescue or ancient demons demanding that you collect twelve enchanted vegetables. Instead, the experience focuses on exploration and the act of moving through an environment at your own pace. Created by Pugscape, it belongs to the increasingly popular tradition of games that turn wandering itself into the main activity. The simplicity can actually be quite relaxing, especially for players accustomed to games constantly throwing objectives, enemies and notifications at them. Whether you find the concept charming or wonder why nobody simply went for a walk outside, Walking Simulator is an amusing example of how modern indie developers can turn even the most ordinary activity into a videogame.
