Cool new game involves “forced perspective”

And I’m back with another cool game that I’ve found. This one involves a trick of the eye known as forced perspective. It might sound unfamiliar, but if you’ve ever seen a picture of someone holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa, you already know what it is – the object itself remains the same size, but compared with something else, it seems to change size. This game by Pillow Castle Games, this concept is taken to a whole new level – make a chess piece the size of a house, or make the Statue of Liberty the size of a mouse. You can even resize portals to make yourself bigger or smaller! The game hasn’t been released to the public yet but here is a trailer:

If you still can’t wait to play, you can try a similar game, Tale of Scale. So what do you think – will this “illusion” type genre of gaming gain popularity or not? Let me know in the comments!
