But the Lord said / go to the Devil

I found quite interesting online Flash-based game yesterday evening called The End.
It is basically ordinary puzzles and mazes-platformer, but what makes it different from the rest gazillion similar games out there, this one makes you think of your views about death.

Levels are not terribly difficult and the whole game can be passed in a few hours. (took me about 6 hours, because I'm not really PC gamer at all.) Some of the puzzles were very clever and towards the end levels started to get genuinely challenging. At the end of every level there is a philosophical Y/N question.



Game collects your answers, compares them to the answers of well known thinkers, the world, and your Facebook friends. It tells you who is closest to your views (I was closest to Machiavelli almost for the whole duration of the game. )



I liked the avatar maker very much, because it didn't force you to choose the gender of the avatar and yet was more diverse than most similar avatar makers. All in all game's visual outfit was consistent and appealing, and I liked that the different worlds had their distinctive outlooks.



Pros/Cons

+outlook
+avatar maker
+philosophical questions were well researched and interesting, game also directs you for further reading about every subject.

-occasional bugs and glitches, levers didn't turn/ character didn't always run or jump.
-it was fairly easy to break some levels
