Indian Games for Kids on Steam
It’s not fair to say that there’s been a shortage of Indian games for kids on Steam. There quite a few games that are remarkably superior to other games, games that kids won’t tire of playing.
However, it’d be interesting to see what makes these games superior. Some games have good action, but some of that action borders on the kind of violence not always suitable for kids. Other games start off well, but can’t sustain the initial excitement and soon fizzle out. A few others are good but pretty much predictable.
One of the very few free Steam games that start off well and continue to remain enjoyable right through the end is The Legend of Vraz. The game sets the tone for excitement from the word goes.
The first thing that immediately attracts players, particularly kids, is the fact that the game’s set in the era of kingdoms. A brave and noble prince who’s out to prove why he’s special, a princess as beautiful as morning dew, a scheming Vizier of Kund who’s going to be a tough villain to beat, the dangerous, mythical elements of the story… The Legend of Vraz has all this and more. The Prince Vraz is smitten with the hauntingly beautiful princess, Princess Avi. And in order to prove that he’s the best, the prince is expected to overcome a number of challenges, which become the chief objective of the entire game.
The challenges have been carefully designed. Both the variety in the challenges and the struggles that the prince goes through while overcoming every challenge, provide a strong backbone for the story.
Every danger that Prince Vraz passes through becomes your very own danger, every tense moment during the gameplay becomes your very own peril. That’s because of the way the entire game environment is etched. As a matter of fact, it’d be difficult for you to detach yourself from the protagonist!
The range of the challenges and the risks associated with each of them is simply fascinating. As the story evolves, you realize that some challenges may sound easy, but they are anything but.
It’s apparent the game designers have taken time to understand the finer points that make a good game great. For instance, there’s one challenge – collecting 100,000 coins – sounds simple. Yet the twists and turns at every step make sure the gamer’s thrill quotient remains high.
Spread across 15 levels of varying competence, The Legend of Vraz is fast growing as one of the most popular Indian games for kids on Steam. And the 4 worlds in which the game happens are both alluringly fresh and formidable.
The Legend of Vraz uses traditional Indian miniature paintings for its visual narrative. As a result, the events and the backdrop become more relocatable, something a game in India doesn’t do often. One final remark – full marks to the game designers for making sure there’s no violence even during the action scenes. When you sum up all such facts about The Legend of Vraz, you realize it’s a game on Steam you won’t easily forget.
