Game covers are one of the most important features within a game's marketing and advertisement, game covers need to have a memorable cover, to create a lasting feeling when viewed and to persuader the audience to buy the game. From what i have talked about in older posts it is clear that covers are as important as the tv adverts and other forms of advertisements.
However, not all game covers follow the same rules as what i have described in older posts. There are covers that choose to break certain conventions to go against the grain and try to stand out against the covers that follow the conventions.
for example here is the cover to the newly released Elder Scrolls V: Skryim
This cover still conforms to a few conventions;
Striking cover
Logo
Title
But that is all, everything else is left to be a mystery and to cause a enigma for the viewer to what exactly this game is about
This method of the way this cover is formed and the content of the cover makes it a very unique and memorable cover.
