The Xbox Showcase just concluded a while ago, and among the numerous AAA titles, we had a couple of interesting-looking indie games. First up is Bad Magpie, an isometric adventure game where you control the titular bird as you explore various environments and... uhm, set them on fire. Or is that just the flowers?
The second game is Vivarium, an adventure game animated like old 80s anime. The game has a very cozy feel to it, though there are some spooky scenes in the trailer. And all of it takes place in a bottle with a tiny tree that's resting on a stool, the titular vivarium. In terms of gameplay, it seems to be a point-and-click adventure with an isometric camera.
