Diego and Kate reveal why they're recommending indie games perfect for portable play, starting with a 13-year-old ninja stealth classic.
Diego Ferreira and Kate Schmidt co-host this episode of Gamer Como A Gente, focusing on indie games suitable for portable play. They open by noting regular host Estevam's absence due to paternity leave. The episode's format involves each host recommending two indie games, explaining why each works well on devices like Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, or phones. Diego starts with 'Mark of the Ninja,' a 2012 stealth game from Klei Entertainment where players use ninja skills against technologically advanced enemies. He highlights its 2D platforming, stealth mechanics, and replay value. Kate then recommends 'Until Then,' a 2024 narrative game from a Filipino studio that blends teenage life with a mystery about disappearances post-catastrophe, featuring pixel art and cultural elements. Diego follows with 'Locomotive,' a 2024 point-and-click game where players alternate between three characters to solve a murder on a 1930s train, praising its British humor and puzzles. Kate concludes with 'Crawl Country,' a 2024 survival horror game that mimics PlayStation 1 aesthetics, where a detective investigates deaths in an amusement park. Throughout, the hosts discuss portable gaming benefits like comfort and battery life, and note language support issues for some titles. The episode ends with a promo for an upcoming live stream.
