Most of you are probably too young to remember a game based on Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s album ‘Welcome to the pleasure dome’.
You played a mundane character who had to improve his personality enough to enter the pleasure dome. Pretty wild concept for a game at the time.
Anyway, the album (which included the famous and controversial song ‘Relax’) was deemed popular enough to have a game created and based around its concept.
Can anyone think of any other games that were made based on the concept of an album?
Can you think of any albums that would be cool to base a game on?
My love of music and games is fairly equal, so I’d love to see more games that used the concept of an album, even if they were indie titles.
I’d imagine Radiohead would be a good source, with albums like OK Computer or Kid-A. Speaking of which, Radiohead did have a recent VR experience, but it wasn’t what I’d call a game.
