I love this game! A very casual game about unpacking, it's so satisfying. There is also a story in this game that you need to be careful not to miss. The game has no dialogs, or cutscenes to tell the story. Unpacking tells their story through the locations and items you unpack, which is pretty unique.

A unique game, that most people have never seen before. Sam Barlow's games are some of the most interesting games I have seen. In Her Story you go through several interviews and watch clips to find out what is going on. You can change the clips by using the search function, if you search "apple" you will see every time someone says "apple". It is so unique and I love it, ofc it is not for everyone, but I think if you like a good story and care more for that than amazing gameplay then this is a game you should check out.

Before I explain why I gave this game a 6, I need to tell when I review a game. I review them after I get 100% of the achievements. The game is pretty fun and has some difficult puzzles, mechanics are simple and elegant, but 100% the game felt more like a job than playing a game. Reason is that the "Cyantific Apparatus" achievement is pain. To get the achievement you have to collect some beakers that is all over the game, and some of them you can't get in the first playthrough because you haven't collected the correct color yet. Therefore you have to play through the same puzzle game again just to get that, and puzzle games are not fun to play 2 times in a row, since you already know the answer. Also you cannot select the precise level where the beaker is, so if it is on the end of a chapter you have to play through every level just to collect a single beaker. If it was not for that achievement I would have probably given it a 7-8/10

In my opinion this is my favorite LEGO game. Story is fun, the map is pretty cool, but the best thing about the game is the characters. Every character I tried is so unique compared to the other LEGO game characters.

Such an amazing game, this game redefines what you can get from a rougelike game storywise. Every other rougelike I have played after is pretty unfulfilling compared to Hades. The other great thing to mention is how they balance the difficulty. They start pretty basic, but difficult at the time, and after you complete the run you can then scale up the difficulty manually by changing enemy health, enemy speed, shop item costs, variation on bosses etc. Upscaling the difficulty gets you more resources that can make you more powerful, but also progresses the story, which makes you want to challenge yourself even more.

Honestly this is one of my favorite games of all time. It's funny, addicting and so refreshing to play. Most other games strive to last at least 30+ hours minimum, but this game is around 5-8 hours and it tells such a fun story in that time, and it just proves that not every game needs to be so long for someone to have a great time. Also, the game costs like 13$ at full price, so there is honestly not any reason to not try it out.

In my eyes, this is a great remaster for the PC. The game is smooth, nice to have the DLCs included and it's a very good story overall. Some bad notes for me personally is the overall pacing of the story. The music feels at times that there is just one song playing on repeat when I'm just swinging through the city. Also the DLCs feel weird when I have to load the game again to play in each DLC, this feels weird since the 3 DLCs are connected, but I have to each DLC on their own and not being to interact with any other DLC collectible while playing in another DLC which makes 100% it a bit annoying and makes the city feel emptier than the main story. Anyways the cons aren't that much of a deal to me, so I'll still give it an 8/10
