Its great game to get someone in to gaming and you play with him/her and see if he/she enjoys act of playing video games.
And at its heart that basically is essence of video games even if each of us have different taste in what we consider fun.You'll be showing to him a genre...imo! But i liked your reply, this game is pure joy!
Agree.And at its heart that basically is essence of video games even if each of us have different taste in what we consider fun.
There is no single perfect game to show, each game focuses on something else: gameplay, story, action, aesthetics etc. Whenever I have a seminary about videogames for people who have no idea what videogames are I have a short list of games that I show in sequence. From the top of my head there is DOOM, Arma 3, DCS, Journey, If My Heart Had Wings, Hearts of Iron 4, Putt-Putt and a few others.
A first game I would show to a person who would come to my house and asked about videogames would probably be Overcooked!. It is simple, colorful and everyone gets it the moment they see it. It has a story, nice graphics, simple gameplay etc.
He basically answers your question at 15:49.Unrelated.

In my opinion our goal should be not bore him/her by describing what "video games" are, it should just get him/her play simple and fun game and just show him/her the simple joy of video games.
Then just showing genre can be confusing, especially these days when line between whats RPG and what action becoming blurry. The reason I posted Mario Kart 8 is because that game is just pure fun and to me that basically what video games is all about.It's a curiosity thread, don't get personal, do not exists a person who don't know what vg is.
Im asking to see your personal thoughts about what game represents/resume a videogame.
Think in a museum after 200 years from now, and a tv with a game running. What game should be?
See my point now?

The reason that game immediately came to mind because when I was playing the game my brother who absolutely zero interest in anything video games watched me play and asked me if he can also play it.The game u posted is very close to my thoughts. Was a great choice imo!
Yeah, what did you not understand about my post. Overcooked! is a very simple game with a fixed camera, basic but pretty graphics and gameplay which anyone can understand, you cook stuff! You take produce from a box, cut it up, boil/cook/grill it and serve it on a plate. It is something every single person on the planet can understand and track on the screen since it doesn't move. There is no gore, no nudity, just cooking and random shenanigans like fire and dangerous/changing environments.With all these games, your choice is Overcooked?
Truly a connoisseur of gaming XD
Why would you be fine with MK8 but think Overcooked is a bad choice?With all these games, your choice is Overcooked?

hahaha, bad grammar of op, so funny, i am so funny for pointing and insightful for pointing this out, hehehe, cant stop laughing, no one else think to did this eitherI say to them "videogame is Resident of Evil 4: Leon's Revenge" for to because you stack efficiently the inventory of ammunition just as importantly you stack efficiently the corpses of Leon enemies.
Since I can't be bothered to answer such an obvious question I would say 'I don't know'.
I don't follow, help me out?Next time try be less paradoxical.
