Having never played one, I wanted to try Dear Esther.</p> <p>The game is built on the Source engine. The story begins on an uninhabited island, and the narrator recounts events from the past, as you slowly walk through the levels. If you have played the game, and didn&rsquo;t fully grasp all the details of the story, I recommend reading the story analysis done by Pop Matters, which can be found <a href="http://www.popmatters.com/post/164085-/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> HERE </a> .</p>
