Image1: This is a map UI set up from a "The Legend of Zelda" game. IT not only contains a colorful map of the game world but it's also got short cuts for tools and a collectable counter. I actually like this set up for the reason it contains more than one display element.
Image2: A photo Album from "Epic Mickey 2". This UI contains an in-game photo album in a book design layout. It contains the two main categories for the two characters who each have their own specific photos and a controls down below. What I like the most is how simple its been set up and the album book layout.
Image3: "Gambit Lab Games" UI that has a nice design down below containing the controls, inventory selector and book option icon. There's also another icon on the left side which has sort of significant purpose. I've never played this game before but I can tell it's most likely a point and click adventure. I have actually played one of this genre before called "Deponia" and find having the UI at the bottom does make things very convenient.
Image4: "Lord of the Rings: War in the North" UI interface. This UI is an inventory displaying current armor obtained. This is main aspect in RPG where an inventory will have a main menu with several sub-menus showing such things as items, equipment, character stats, map and save/load options. If a game contains this and much more in a user friendly manner then it's a good UI to navigate. Personally I find this UI has a nice navigation layout compared to some that can be very confusing.
Image5: UI from a Minecraft mod. This is a UI for the crafting aspect and being a mod, it's the PC version. This is a simple and friendly UI for crafting but what I do find a pain in regards to minecraft is having to memorize the crafting recipes. I have only played the xbox360 version and this isn't an issue in certain game modes like creative mode. However apart from this, I find the UI for Minecraft very friendly and well designed.
