Top 10 Artistic Games
While staunch critics of the video game industry are quick to shortchange the medium as having no artistic merit, there are some games that few could argue do not push the boundaries between art and video games. These games do an amazing job of providing a compelling sense of atmosphere and truly putting you into their world like few games can. Here’s a look at some of the best games when it comes to artistic direction:

 

ICO
One of the most beloved games of all-time, Ico is a visual treat, with endearing characters and a highly atmospheric world to explore.
Rez
The classic music-inspired shooter, Rez uses vector-style graphics to great effect, with several worlds each with their own unique theme and gorgeous execution.
Prince of Persia
Ubisoft’s latest adventure in the Prince of Persia franchise not only utilizes new gameplay elements, but also boasts a fantastic hand drawn-inspired look.
