Plato n°142

Plato is not just about expert games.

While we write this in black and white, we are well aware that this is not necessarily so clear, especially in the games chosen for the cover. Is this an effect of the team's constitution, which is necessarily highly passionate?

Are family games more sensitive to the current trend of multiple variations and "light" adaptations of big hits? Perhaps it is rarer to have a simple original mechanic than to perceive small nuggets of originality in the micro-machines of a big machine? The notion of originality itself would deserve long developments.

While we're doing our introspection, don't hesitate to check our sections dedicated to less complex titles and children's games. You will find an ALF article on ambient games, a detailed review of Jurassic Park - Danger! and the fun family moments it provides, or Kids' Chronicles. The experts are not left out, however, and this month we look at Spain with an interview with Devir.

We keep saying that the variety of the gaming world allows everyone to find something to their liking. In any case, this will undoubtedly be the case at the next Cannes International Game Festival!
