Game Review




What I learned about the genres and games that I was researching of is that every game has a unique style of creating. Each of the games has a different type of social issue that is focused on. Also the genre is different in each game because they focus it basically on the social issue that they are going to focus on. Every game has a unique creating. What I mean by this is that some of the games are more detailed.
When I would create my game I would like it to have the genre of puzzles or racing. This are the most genres that interested me the most. I would also like it to focus on endangered species. I would like to focus in this because this social issue interest me a lot and I want to learn more about them.
