Had a go on Trials Rising last night and it wasn't at all like I expected.
I thought it was gonna be a normal racing game but it plays more like a physics-based platform game. And it was quite fun too as well as being punishingly frustrating. The varied number of ways you can fail is surprisingly entertaining.
Even though I didn't go into the multiplayer mode "ghosts" of other players' performances still appear during races to compete against and I only hope no one else was able to see my own efforts as my ineptitude was highly embarrassing.
Hmm GOG has a game called Ancestors on sale. Play as an ape that evolves into human Looks and sounds cool but there's a review on the page that says it's realllly boring
EDIT: And Epic's freebie is Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee
I remember playing and liking is as a kid (this is a remake) but I can't really recall what you were supposed to do. I'm pretty sure I didn't understand that at the time.... Anyway, downloaded.
