For what it is, it's great. It's a fast FPS where you blast enemies to have a blast. I wanted more dialogue though; the retro anime style mixed with girls & cheesy lines was fun but not enough of it!!! A longer story & better boss fights would've made this game perfect.
A real raw emotional story game that feels genuine. The camera recording aspect & making little movies with memories you film is fantastic even though the little snippets I recorded were mostly trash. You end up feeling bonded with all the amazing characters & are sad when the summer is over, the flashback aspect & current day premise was well done like you'd see in a high-end TV series. There could have been more done though, dialogue & delivery was odd sometimes, not enough time spent 1 on 1 with friends, & the fact that there's some "wrong" choices made me look up what to choose instead of playing naturally. Also, not sure what was with all the weird anti-hunting propaganda, I guess the writers don't know that deer hunting is actually good for deer & the environment? Or maybe they're showcasing how clueless teenagers are in their views, which would actually be genius, like all the kids protesting for silly causes in America & they have no clue what they're talking about.
I love story/puzzle games like this because they always have amusing dialogue that's an actual joy to read every word, the only bad thing about these games for me is I have such a hard time figuring out what to do next or what items to use, thankfully the majority of this game was pretty straightforward unlike other games in this genre I've played, but I still ended up having to look up guides for solutions 5 separate times which takes away from the journey. Overall, the other worldly wonderland mysterious vibes were all on point, the frogs were hilarious & the facial expressions of everyone were top notch including all the dialogue. The game is a bit on the short side, but the ending hinted at a DLC or sequel though which is exciting to look forward to.
Didn't have a lot of fun but something about finding where to go next & collecting the achievements made this game addictive to me, I ended up putting 20 hours into it to 100% it. Game is probably only supposed to be 16 hours, but I was stuck looking for hidden paths so many times & a couple of the races took me 40+ tries to finally beat.
An excellent story game would love to see more like this. Great game all around besides being too short, the dialogue is wonderful, really showcases how flawed most people's beliefs & lives are. The graphics were beautiful. The puzzles were fantastic, sadly there wasn't many, but enough of them that I wouldn't call this a walking simulator. The flashbacks being told through old school pixel gameplay was an interesting unique choice I don't think any game has ever done before, but it kind of works in a weird way. More gameplay such as a longer story & more puzzles would've made this game perfect.
So refreshing to have a puzzle/story game that doesn't require you to look up guides/walkthroughs/solutions, all the navigation & puzzles are self-explanatory, you pretty much never have to look up anything & can figure out everything on your own without issue. As the name implies "Mythwrecked" It features the Greek Gods but in like chill modern day form with tablets, you get trapped on an island & have to figure out what happened there to get off. Good game, but could've been better, dialogue could have been voiced & more in depth, graphics could have been nicer, characters could have been more appealing to look at, & OMG the grunts & sounds people make, just STOP I had to play the game muted. Overall, a good game that could've been great.
I found the story, environment, jokes, & NPCs in general overall better/more interesting in the 1st game. But the guns & skateboarding in 2 make this the more "fun" one to play gameplay wise. Keep in mind a lot of the review bombing is due to the insane number of bugs & glitches when the game first came out, it's not because it's a bad game & they were working fast to patch all of the issues.
2D is pretty, can be hard to line up with enemies properly. Combat is fine, but gets very repetitive, & on top of that the game is very difficult, I gave up after a dozen areas/bosses, you have to repeat whole 10-minute missions over & over again until you level up to beat it. I thought maybe the bounty board was like training for XP & gear, NOPE! The bounty board is even harder than the missions in most cases.. So, the game basically sets you up to fail & you get some XP, die some more, get some more XP, & then finally win. Not interested in playing a game that sets you up to fail just so you can finally beat a boss. The class types are interesting, but I wonder if some are way better than others, because I struggled a lot with the one, I ended up sticking with (since you only get XP on your active class) I stayed as the dual wielder & struggled horribly with bosses.
What an enjoyable journey, this is a very calm relaxing game of saving lost yak type animals & herding them back to their forest in a journey through cities, fields & mountains. The challenge/gameplay is avoiding obstacles, dodging dangerous bird owls, puzzle solving, cleaning & petting the animals to keep them happy & navigating them back home. I would love to see more games like this unique journey in the future.
Fun gun play, cool & interesting dialogue/story, replay ability is high considering it's one of those games where they want you to repeat the short missions to go for higher rankings, my biggest complaint is that S rankings are near impossible to achieve, I've repeated missions 20+ times & have gotten S rank only 1 time out of all the missions (which is required to finish the story)
I don't hate on kids games just because the target audience is kids, but they should still be fun, the dialogue & platforming is decent, but that's pretty much it, the collecting is boring & overbearing, the abilities are silly & only a few are actually useful, there are very few mini games & most of which are not fun & just a chore to get through, the story towards the end feels like it's dragging on & you're sick of the game by the end even though it's only a 4-5 hour game.
Even though the game isn't that interesting.. you're just digging a hole something about it made me not stop digging, lol. You eventually unlock achievement mode after you beat the game & getting all the achievements is easy after, first playthrough took me almost 2 hours, but once I knew what i was doing I did 2nd playthrough in 29 minutes & 100% it. Dynamite, Lights, Jetpack & Explosives add a fun mix to digging in the deep, the moles could have played a bigger part.
Funny NPC interactions even if some of the jokes go too far, but funny dialogue & unique guns/setting make this game worth checking out. I wish you didn't get locked out of content if you missed something & the gun play isn't that great, combat could have been better, I found talking to people more interesting than fighting, overall, still a good game worth checking out if you like interesting games or good dialogue.
Was not expecting to love this game the way I did, spooky ocean with mysterious aura, fun fish catching mini games with backpack management puzzle, time cycle between safe daylight hours & dangerous night waters, ship/net/rod upgrades to catch bigger & badder fish, neat story, this game has it all! Wish the story & dialogue was a little more in depth, that would make it the perfect game.
Amazing game, I had a lot of fun with it. One of the easier "souls-like" games I've played, but still challenging enough to punish you if you're not careful or you play braindead just running in. There's a lot of bonuses to aid you in your journey. Side quests & finding collectables will increase your health & stamina, relics & talismans have different perks/bonuses to fit your playstyle, also you have NPC helper who actually can be a life saver, & huge help, especially on the final boss. Overall this game isn't too difficult, even the bosses are simple, the final boss is the only real challenge where you'll feel like giving up, took me 4 attempts & i probably died 10 times total in the game to give you some perspective on how hard she is. The trek back to her is brutal too. I hate when games make an OP final boss, also this game could have used a sell item system instead of collecting so much junk in your storage, glad there wasn't a weight limit system though.
One of the coolest story games I've ever played, you want to understand what is happening & who everyone is, each mission & every dialogue has something interesting you discover & learn, really hard to describe this game other than otherworldly & just very interesting & unique all around.
I liked the idea, but completing the objectives/missions is very hard, maybe just not my type of game, I couldn't complete it because I couldn't make both old people & young people happy. Customizing your buildings & making your own little town square is fun, changing recipes becomes annoying when you can't satisfy everyone. Petting cats, & cleaning up trash while time lapse is a cool way to force you to stay active while you wait for the day to finish up, speed up buttons was nice to make mission days go by faster, art was pretty, but overall after the first 2 missions i stopped having fun & then got stuck on mission 3 for hours where I eventually gave up, the made the game way too hard for what it is, almost like they purposely did that to make the game seem bigger/longer.
Outdated navigation on foot, boss battles that repeat themselves, combat that isn't as good as it could be, game is fun at first, but after a month or 2 of playing, you'll get sick of it. Only good thing is characters & environment, Hoyoverse tends to be amazing in those areas with every game they do.
I just don't get it, I play story games, I have no problem reading, I spent 5 hours on this game & didn't enjoy any of my time on it, that rarely happens, I'm not a picky person, & can find something I enjoy in everything, I found nothing I enjoyed or liked in this game.
Fun game could have had more of a story, art is beautiful, gathering materials is fun, the whole winter concept & being timed gathering stuff before night was fun, I wasn't sure if I was going to like the time cycle thing when I first started but ended up loving the whole idea & challenge of gathering as much as possible for my person & home before nightfall. I'm usually horrible at Navigation, in games & in real life but this games map design is so good, that I learned where everything was quickly & almost never got lost in the 13 hours it took for me to do everything.
Game becomes very difficult to navigate quickly, unless you're a genius at navigating you will be looking up guides or where to go constantly, after the first couple areas you will be lost, you will get lost, you will have to backtrack & look for what to do next, & everything is so vague & up to you to figure out where to go & what to do & how to solve these insane puzzles, really holds the game back in my opinion. There's not really combat which I loved because so many games feel the need to add random or lackluster combat into games these days, games can be just as fun & good without combat. This is a Survival game where you run & hide from enemies, you do have a stun gun that is also used to unlock doors, & navigate the ship. Atmosphere was cool, concept was cool, the little robot guy was cool, but with complex puzzles & navigation with literally no hand holding in this confusing environment, it becomes a chore to play, I ended up watching a guide while playing the last 2 areas because nothing is clear.
Very clever puzzles, sometimes too clever where you're just staring & trial & erroring for 30 minutes straight until you finally look it up online. I've played Shadow puzzle games before such as Contrast, Shady Part of Me is for sure more advanced in the puzzle area at least. Story was too vague & characters too annoying; the voice of the girl was like nails on chalk board.
Combat is ok, but once the enemies get harder out of nowhere, makes it near impossible to progress & have fun, becomes very difficult later on, the stealing core concept is cool though. Upgrading your robot companions is cool. Navigation in this bare desert wasteland is annoying & boring, the platforming is too clunky to be enjoyable, the story didn't interest me in all, the audio log collecting & cutscenes are skippable in my opinion. I played the re-released edition & it still had a bunch of issues, including enemies getting stuck in walls, & platforming button prompts not working forcing you to quit the game to main menu & reload your file, this happened multiple times in my 7 hour playthrough, yes I gave up on the game 7 hours in, not worth my time.
Fun game. I played it for 30 hours when it was on Game Pass. I love tower defense & being involved in the fight with your character is cool, never played one like this before. If the game had an actual story & actual missions would have made it better, could have had better dialogue, & less annoying achievements that don't waste your time, but overall if you like 3rd person shooters or tower defense genre, you'll have a good time.
Cute, fun game where you run around as a mischievous cat, knocking things over, tripping people, stealing their cell phones. But very little to do & gets repetitive after a few hours, they have in game achievements & you can unlock adorable hats, so that'll keep you going to see it through to the end, just wish there was more content, they could have added mini-games or something, but yeah... you just roam around as a cat & talk to other animals, story & dialogue is nothing special, controls were fine for the most part & it's nice to see black cats get some appreciation.
Seems like a bunch of the whiners are achievement/trophies hunters mad there's no chapter select, you're really adults chasing a little pixel trophy that means nothing? lol....Anyway, this is an AMAZING GAME. very few games can make you feel like you're lost in another realm, this one achieves that surreal feeling, eerie vibes all around from the environment & the NPCs you encounter, the combat was unique where you have to roll dice & choose cards, you pick your weapons & equipment in the fight, my biggest complaints would be I didn't care for the voice acting, it took me out of the moment a lot & the combat could have been more smooth, hears hoping they work that out in sequel because overall the story & gameplay is unique & interesting for sure !
Awesome shooter, but that's pretty much it, story is not there, characters are just random npc faces you wont remember, the only highlight is the shooting & the different classes/abilities. This is a game where you end up playing the same areas over & over, Rogue likes & what not. If you want to run around mindlessly shooting until boss battles that offer a real challenge & different way to approach each, then you'll like this game. I only did one playthrough, they definitely want you to do more, but I wasn't interested enough in the other robot classes to do that, can beat this game in one sitting like 5-6 hours if you don't have to repeat bosses/areas due to losing that is.
A Very Good game that could have been better with puzzles added or even having to find codes for locks instead of all codes being the same. Anyway, you play as a Forest Ranger who is in radio communication with a partner, you grow a friendship & learn about each other, then weird stuff starts happening, the story & dialogue is realistic & interesting, you want to find out what happens next, the gameplay is really just going around & picking things up, they had an opportunity to add puzzle solving to the equation but chose not to for some reason, so this is just an interactive story game that can be beat in one sitting.
Good story/survival game, some of the movements & areas were confusing & annoying, but overall navigation was fine, you distract enemies, move forward, do button prompts to survive & move around, talk to NPCs, try to save them & yourself, all on a boat, the accents were the most unique part of the game & loved to hear myself & others talk.
Had some cool puzzles, most of them are just annoying to solve & having someone chase you or patrolling around you while you sneak around & solve them gets very exhausting.
I usually don't care for these types of games, the side scrolling pixel type stuff or the games where you just repeat the same area over & over to make progress, but I didn't let that stop me from trying this game out & I'm glad I did, this game is so fun !!!! You rob the same bank multiple times, collect money, weapons, complete side quests & get out before the timer ends, then you go in & make more progress the next time, rinse & repeat, by the end you beat all the bosses, buy out all the dark web items, ect ect. Cute, funny, fun game.
This is an awesome, cute open world game, don't let the childish graphics fool you, you can absolutely enjoy this as an adult, you go around hitting card board cut outs of monsters, collecting items, gliding/sliding your way through the world while trying to get your older sisters attention, you have 2 whole Islands to explore & a lot of friends to meet along the way, dialogue is cute & funny, story is meaningful, controls are good, collectables & customization options for lil gator are awesome, this is just an overall great open world game that anyone can easily get into.
Very Good Game, just wish it was longer. Dialogue was clever, witty, funny, realistic, which when you're just going around opening doors & finding clues I guess it has to be, if you're someone who doesn't mind multiple play throughs to get full experience, this is one of those games, there's 3 endings I believe & you have choices/options on how to respond & do things throughout the game. I only played through it once & enjoyed my time with it but don't feel the need to play it all over again just to hear new dialogue or see new paths. Graphics & environment feel other worldly, like you're in a fever dream, being the only human gives you an eerie feeling, there's little mini game puzzles but not enough to call this a puzzle game imo.
Had potential to be a way better game, still a great one though. You go around clearing dungeons that have popped up in every day society, cool concept ! There's also complex puzzle solving but most of the time not too bad you have to look things up, but you absolutely have to think most of them through before acting, once you solve puzzles, you beat up baddies & eventually the boss, then boom dungeon done, you get a stamp. Basically the goal is to go around & beat all dungeons, but also relax while doing it & make friends with the folks in town, you have day cycles but unlimited time, so you clear dungeons during the day & choose who you want to spend time with in the evening. The combat has a lot of cool abilities you can unlock sadly the controls & pace are sluggish & makes combat more of a chore than something fun I looked forward to, the puzzles & story are the real highlights of this game, not the fighting. The locals are all different & well put together, finding a place to just relax was nice.
My 4th Zelda game & 3rd one I couldn't bare to finish, I just don't get the appeal, even with this one being different & a true open world yada yada, I'd rather just play Genshin Impact than this, lol. Found nothing about this game interesting, Link himself I've never been liked, I tried to give this game a chance & played for several hours & found none of it even a little fun.
The only good thing about this game was some of the new Pokemon in the Pokedex were cool. Getting rid of regular Gym battles which is basically what the Pokemon games have built themselves on is such a daft move on the developers part, these trials were some of the lamest gameplay I've had the displeasure of facing. Skip this one & play a better Shin Megami Tensei Clone. (the first monster catcher game, for any youngin who doesn't get that reference)
One of the best turn-based games & "monster catchers" out there. You go around recording Beasts with a magical Cassette player, hence the name Cassette beasts, you can then transform into any Beasts you have successfully recorded. Everything is music theme & there's even singing when you're inside buildings, a tune that will get stuck in your head for better or worse. There's a social sim dynamic where you can choose to bring along certain NPCS & build your relationship with them, including a dog. These partners also fight with you in battle & give you their own quests. There's a lot of side quests besides the main one which is going around beating Ranger Captains & eventually taking on the Archangels around the world, which are the real boss fights. Finding new Beasts & choosing what they "remaster" into is stays fresh & exciting throughout the game & on top of that there's a cool Fusion mechanic, which isn't some cheap shiny gimmick or mega lame stuff, you can Fuse any two Beasts together in battle & form an unstoppable monster. This game is worth every penny & more.
A fun puzzle solving game where you move things around to where it makes sense to your brain. Overall I found most of the puzzles do-able & enjoyable, but there was a few that made zer0 sense to me & I had to look up the solution. The way this game tests your brain & perception is very interesting, I solved things without really knowing what I was doing just because my brain said yeah this looks right. An enjoyable & interesting experience is a good way to sum up with game.
I thought I was going to enjoy this game a lot more than I did, I find most of the rooms tedious to put stuff away, especially when certain items have a certain area & it doesn't allow you to place them, which is why they have a place anywhere option in settings.. which a bunch of people seemed to use & that's how I found out about it, basically breaking the game & making it easy to complete / get all achievements. I finally used that on the last level because it gets insane. It is very cool you go from your childhood bedroom, to teenage room, to college dorm, to apartment, to small house, to big house. It's like a story without words & just references/hints given the local & items you're putting away. Cute game with a fun idea, I just didn't like a lot of the execution of it.
Basic type of restaurant game, you don't make the food though like in Overcooked, a machine makes it & well you.. a different machine, a sushi bot, deliver it to the tables of the people who ordered that color plate/food. It ramps up & gets more difficult as time goes on of course, diners start throwing trash on the floor you have to clean that up while navigating quality of food to right customers as well as the colors, simple dynamic that grows stale after doing it so many times, the thing that kept me going was being able to decorate my own restaurant via upgrades with my money I make for a hard days work, sadly a lot of the decorations do not make sense for a sushi place, so after several redesigns I gave up on that & the game. There are quests & people in town to get to know, but neither of those things are really interesting.. the game tried to be something different, but fell short everywhere.
Game starts out very neat almost like a movie intro, I was hyped to play it but I could only play the 1st Act because I **** at the game & it wont let you progress unless you complete the requirements.. but the several hours I did play it I enjoyed myself, the 3rd person skating around & shooting is definitely a somewhat unique aspect, I thought I would love this game more like Sunset Overdrive, but it's a little different that than, you go into arenas & have to complete tricks to acquire scores to pass, you can slow down time & shoot enemies with special shots using timing, it's really neat, easy to get into but hard to master type of concept.. I couldn't master it, after being stuck on Act 1 after several attempts to progress I gave up.
Cute game with realistic character personality/emotions, cleaning up the gunk was satisfying, combat wasn't all that exciting, platforming & puzzles were good, I wish upgrading your gear via the collectables were more accessible.. some materials were so hard to find it locked me out of my last achievement I needed.
Great game. Halloween is best holiday so to have a game taking place on Halloween night is awesome. You go door to door collecting candy which is currency, you use candy to collect stamps which are perks/upgrades that help you when you battle monsters, whatever costume you're wearing transforms into a battle suit & then you take down your enemies through inputs in a turn based combat system. If you're a lover of turn based games or Halloween you'll enjoy this cute funny game.
Want to make friends who all have personalities & back stories? Want amazing perks & combo attacks to take out your enemies? Want to pull out a gun in a knife fight? Want to whip your enemies while dressed in a latex cat suit? Want to have a talking "not" a cat navigator? Want to go inside peoples mindscape & force them to have a change of heart in their palace? THEN THIS GAME IS FOR YOU. You & your buds go around beating up baddies in their home turf.
Pretty much a near perfect game. Top 5 for me out of the thousands of games I played. Every character is loveable in their own way, you enjoy all of their stories & friendships, the combat is turn based with little twists in between like ultimate moves, combo attacks, can just pull out a gun & unload on enemies, you unlock more perks & enhancements through building your friendship level with your companions, basically everything you do in this game advances you in some way, shape or form. Leveling up & unlocking things becomes addicting & you see the effects & buffs it has makes everything so much more enjoyable. This is a big game & a long one, you will need to invest some time & every second of it is enjoyable. "Royal" version adds new story mission & characters, some of the best I might add, amazing "DLC" If you like turn based games or story games, you'll love this but honestly I feel like this is one of those types of games that has something for everyone, there's even some farming sim type stuff amongst the social sim stuff.
Great game. Funny dialogue, interesting missions, I enjoyed 1 & 2 a lot more than 3. Also idk what the preachyness of not liking jails is about, you think criminals & dangerous people should roam free??!?!? Besides that the game was super cute & highly recommend it for story game lovers.
Has a cool premise. The viewing angle was interesting but becomes frustrating, the beginning scene is definitely the highlight of the game, it feels like you're in a movie. After that the game drags on & you start clicking on things to try & figure out the puzzles, the confusion ramps up quickly & from what I saw a lot of people ended up looking up how to progress & where to go which kind of defeats the purpose of playing ? The game becomes an absolute chore & there's nothing really keeping you interested or invested.. I gave up half way through & that was after returning to it twice begrudgingly
Cute story game overall, characters were likeable, but the story itself revolved around a conflict that happened years ago, I didn't find the climax all that special or interesting. They tried to add a puzzle type aspect to the gameplay, like sticking keys into keyholes, I found it just annoying, not interesting or fun. Running around areas with the beautiful art style & finding collectables was enjoyable but I wish there was more to do puzzle wise. If you want a quick one session story game then I absolutely recommend this.
