This was woth waiting 16 years for. The sequel matured compared to the previous game, but kept the charm of clunkyness. It kept me sitting in silence in many occasions, it handles complex and deep mental issues on almost a laughably digestable way. This game was therapeutic. Thank you for the experience - and highly recommend it to everyone.

A great action platformer with a captivating story and a honestly good take on mental health issues. Sign me up! Some saving errors happened during my playthrough but managed to get all achievements in the end. And never, EVER want to see the Waterloo level again!

Where should I start? Runescape meets Minecraft? Valheim gives some sort of nostalgia of old-school adventure games and the thrill of survival. The graphics are simple yet immersive, the lighting absolutley stunning, the world living around you, despite being alone or with a very small, private team... I love every minute of it!
There isn't much story involved - aside pursuing the next boss - but the grinding part of woodcutting, mining and building somehow doesn't feel tedious. I like the small snippets of runestone lore scattered here and there. The procedure is gradual and challenging, even with iron items (the level we are at now) the bosses and some biomes remain challenging.
The only negative? It's freaking hard to find the merchant, that's what! :D
Seriously though, as it is alpha, be prepared for some issues (here is what I have experienced so far):
- occasional lag (when the game is saving your seed every 20 mins)
- occasional items floating away
- occasional items bugged in which appear to be there but aren't; same with built furniture, gates, etc.
- occasional monsters bugging through trees, walls, etc.
- as the game saves every 20 mins, everything done between 2 saves CAN be lost. This needs either a save game feature, or you should log out - log in if you want to save something urgently
- extremely rarely, the game just suddenly crashes (experienced only once)

Overall? 9/10, waiting for the beta, then the full release! :D

This is much more forgiving in a sense than the classical Binding of Isaac game. The graphics are in a way better looking, the game much better optimised. The lore, characters and overall mechanics are just addictive. I highly recommend it to anyone who can tolerate disturbing stories and imagery.

We were here is a very nice and really short game - we've managed to gather all the achievements with my buddy by playing it through 2 times. The story is fairly simple: you, as two explorers, end up in a cold mansion separately and you have to escape together, by giving instructions to eachother and helping eachother via a walkie-talkie. The game is similar to Keep talking and nobody explodes, just in a shorter, free version. We greatly enjoyed it, and suggest to try with a friend, or if you just want a quick gaming fix after work!
Warning: you cannot play this alone! Make sure to have at least one buddy with you. Have fun!

This game changed my life. Not just because the story, the gimmicky but lovable and meta-gameplay, but because thanks to Undertale, I've overcame great burdens in my life and met great people. Undertale brings humans together. Teaches you how to fight your inner monsters.

I'd say too much if I'd continue this review, so: go and play it. It is worth it. Don't let the pixel art graphics throw you off! Splendid music, too!

Another old play, late review piece of mine, for which I am really ashamed of, because Dear Esther deserves all the praise it can get.
First and foremost: Dear Esther is not a game in a traditional sense, but rather an experiment on interactive storytelling. If we go out from Chris Crawford's (the mind behind the research on interactive storytelling), however, Dear Esther can't be even accounted that - it is more like an audiobook, where you are given the opportunity to look around and "read" the story in your own pace and the chapters in whatever order you wish, depending on which places you visit first. "Walking simulator" is a fitting cathegory, if you need to put it somewhere.*

You take the role of a lonely, nameless male protagonist while re-visiting the island he used to live on, and which is now abandoned. While exploring the - otherwise beautifuflly depicted - island, you listen to his thoughts, telling you the story of what this place once was and what it means to him. As said, depending on where you go first, some "chapters" may come sooner or later, but overall, it is a complete story with a sudden - albeit somewhat expected - twist at the end.

Dear Esther has beautiful graphics and captivating atmoshpere, the scenery is absolutely astonishing sometimes. I remember spending extra time just drinking some parts in, like the caves or the little path among the cliffs, with small flowers - in a sense, it is really romantic, actually. The music is soothing and somewhat chilling sometimes. I like to listen to it to this day - it still gives me goosebumps. It was one part for which the game won an award, after all.

Dear Esther is not a long experience, so I highly recommend it to anyone who is short on time, but needs a little relaxation and stretching your senses beyond your worldy woes, be it studies or work.

*Pardon my note on interactive storytelling, this is what I wrote my bachelor thesis about, and I included the game in it as an example of what an interactive story could be.

This has been an interesting experience (I've played this game a while back), and the only negative thing I can say about it is the obligatory use of an Ubisoft account. Really, if there is a bane of gamer's existence, it's the UPlay. Other than that, I can say that Black Flag is my favourite AC episode, closely followed by Assassin's Creed 2, which I still need to finish sometime.

Pirating is great, the open water battle system, the raiding, pillaging and plundering, the lookout for collectibles and the building your hideout give just the right amount of piratey feeling you need to feel involved - killing hapless assassination targets all the time, after all, gets a tad boring after a while. The story is fair I guess, although I feel like we didn't learn as much about the modern storyline compared to the other games, but it didn't felt so forced as it did in previous and upcoming games. Besides, the spicy extra what AC2 gave me with the exploration of Venice (and what knowledged I was actually able to use in real life once I visited the city a couple of years ago) turned out to be the shanties in this game: even about 2 years after finishing the game, I still tend to listen to the pirate shanties of my crewmates.

I like this game. If you are new in the AC series, you'll get some trouble understanding who you are or what Abstergo wants with you, but that can be put to side as you live the pirate life. So far, this stays my favourite AC game.

This has been sitting in my library for a while so I quickly played through it as some after-work relaxation. I must say, I should've played this game sooner! Costume Quest is a highly adorable game with witty puns (sometimes it's worth being a bully in the game to get the quirky responses), cool old-school RPG style fights and a fair leveling up curve. The game is pretty linear, and from the build of it, I'd say this is more aimed for the younger gamers than an old veteran like me. Even with that in mind, it's a relatively short and fun game for all generations! I'm pretty sure I'll keep this around and re-play it someday with a young gamer-in-training in my lap. :)

A soothing logical puzzle game for those who need a short break from work, or just want to do something "casual" from time to time. Or if you like minesweeper. Because it's basically minesweeper with a boost.

One tiny problem: if you sign in to the game on a computer owned by a friend, who also has this game, you'll get awarded all the achievements they have. Other than this, I highly recommend it to anyone!
