Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is an excellent get for PS Plus members. If you haven’t played through this beautiful experience you definitely need to give it a shot. A first person, purely narrative-focused game similar to Gone Home, you wander through a small village in the UK after a strange paranormal event has caused all of its inhabitants to simply vanish. All that remains are spirals of light recounting the days and weeks leading up to the event. It’s also decently short, clocking in at six hours, and the lack of a price tag is too good to pass up.
The rest of the lineup is comprised of some more indie titles, each offering up very different gameplay styles. As they say, variety is the spice of life. The Deadly Tower of Monsters is an isometric shooter with a fun twist. As you ascend the tower, you are greeted by dozens of different monsters, all of which you can gun down in style. These two PS4 offerings alone are great for those looking to take a break from the big AAA games that seemingly come out every couple hours this time of year.
PS4 owners can also pick up Letter Quest Remastered and Pumped BMX + for PS Vita thanks to cross buy. The former is a fun twist on the RPG genre where you spell out words instead of picking an attack option. The latter is a 2D biking game similar to Trials or Excite Bike, where you take death-defying jumps and try to stick a solid landing.
Even if you just own a PS4 you can still save $55, not to mention the extra $40 if you have a PS3 Stashed away somewhere. PS Plus members save a whopping $55 minimum in November alone, making up for the $60 they dropped on the membership in the first place.
