Review
Assassins Creed Mirage. Is a back to basic game in the Assassin's Creed Franchise. It doesn't have all the stuff the series doesn't need like material gathering. OK it does have something like that. But it doesn't have it in the same sense as Valhalla or Odyssey. Where it is just an endless grind for materials, And that is a big plus for this game. The only issue i have had is that the character feels like it gets stuck on every edge of stairs or fences. My final opinion of the game is that it is great, and i would highly recommend it.

Downsides
The downsides of the the title is that it has Denuvo anti cheat, and it forces you through Ubisoft Connect.

Steam Deck OLED performance
Battery: approximately 3 hours.
Settings: Medium, High textures, FSR balanced.
Fps: 30 - 40, Average 34 fps.

Final Rating: 7/10

Device: Steam Deck
Performance: Perfect

Update
After 100% completing the game and going through the Solstice ending (True Ending) and getting all collectibles, the game is still just a joy to play. My opinion hasn't changed. This is still a must-buy game.

This version of the game is an amazing experience on the Steam Deck. Bought it and didn't stop until I had beaten it once. Played the old version before it, and the ability to walk/run diagonally just feels less clunky than the grid-based movement from the original. Don't get me wrong, the original is still a fantastic game. Personally, I just prefer the more free movement. Other than that, there isn't much to say other than it is nice to have collectibles and a desktop interface so it can run on the Deck.

6.9 hrs on record
Rating: 9/10
difficulty: 3/10 to 4/10 (Nothing to worry about)
Length (100%): 6-8 hours

Good things
  1. Music (The music is absolutely amazing. Especially ending song by James Currier)
  2. Gameplay (The gameplay is fun and engaging)
  3. Visuals (Cute characters, and pleasing color pallet)
Bad things
  1. Collision (The map has quite a few small object with collisions that if you clip the edges turnip boy stops dead in his tracks)
  2. Aspect ratio (This is not really a problem for me. But I have to mention it. You are stuck in and aspect ration of 4:3)

Conclusion
Turnip Boy Robs a Bank is an absolutely amazing game with a major caveat that brings it down. That issue being the collisions. This is most noticeable in the pink key card room. Other than that the game is great. Music as good as the first game, and the main mechanics work great. But lets talk about the story. Is ok for what it is. In my opinion there isn't much story. But there is just enough to make it feel right. But that is just my opinion. With all that said lets sum up the review.

Summary
The game has some small issues, primarily collision based. Which is why I have decided to give it 9/10 instead of 10/10. Either way the game is amazing and worth a purchase.

Quick update 07/09/24
The servers still have quite a few problems. But getting into the game is no longer a massive issue. only the races. Another thing i wanted to add is that the npc's can be quite rammy and they can push you but you can push them again. This is especially bad in offroad races with narrow paths.


Pre-Release Review
In my opinion the game itself is extremely fun. The cars feel great and the sounds are amazing. I would 100% recommend you get this game when the servers are more stable. Right now the servers are extremely unstable to the point it is hard to get into the game. But once you are in the game and disable voice chat the servers mostly run fine. A few hiccups here and there but nothing major. The performance is also quite nice compared to what i was expecting. I can run it pretty well on a intel arc a770.

Final opinion
Buy it if you like open world racing games but wait until full release where the servers are hopefully better.

Performance (Intel Arc a770)
Graphics Preset: Medium
FSR: Default
Fps: 30-40

Steam deck performance (Windows)
Graphics Preset: Low
FSR: Performance
Fps 30-40

I honestly can't do this visual novel justice through a review. So my short answer is ]buy it. It is an amazing game and worth more than the listed price, in my opinion.

Reasons to Buy
The storytelling in this visual novel gets you invested in the plot and the characters more than any other visual novel I have played. It does this so well that you feel extremely bad about choosing one of the bad choices because it affects the characters you have become so invested in. Importantly, it doesn't use sexuality to get you invested in the story, unlike many other games in this genre.

Bad Things
Scenes get reused a lot for the travel portion of the game. It more than makes up for this with the other scenes.

Note
The game focuses on very dark topics that can be quite gruesome at times. The main issues the game covers are human trafficking, kidnapping, suicide, starvation, murder, etc, and many of these things happen to children in the game.

Builders journey is one of the worst controlling games i have played. The placing of the block is frustrating as hell. With block not snapping to the thing you're pointing your mouse at, and good luck placing block next to characters. The graphics are great except for the grainy visuals even on the highest setting with FSR and film grain off.

I can honestly not recommend the game cause of the buggy nature. Other than to those who just want a quick game to get all achievements in.

Final conclusion. Don't buy at full price or even at all. Unless you want a quick 100%.
Rating: 3/10
Completion time: about 2 hours. Faster if following a guide

A cute game about cleaning up the ocean, and watching out for the axolotl like fish.

Super sweet little game, about a cat causing mayhem in a city while trying to get home.

Helltaker is a really nice indie game about dating demon girls. The game has a lot of really frustrating but still fun puzzle/challenges, and the game has a really nice soundtrack. I can't recommend the game enough, if you have the time to play it, do it :D
