its like factorio, slay the spire and vampire survivors all in one.

its like the Stronghold games but more fun and chaotic and less buggy

i dont really write reviews often and it gets its pretty messy so i wrote down what i think and let chatgpt restructure what i wanted to say:

**Minor Spoilers Ahead**

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this game since its release—it's become quite an obsession. Compared to the original, *Frostpunk 2* feels more expansive and focused on the big picture. The city feels alive with bustling citizens, automatons, airships, and trains (once you've built the appropriate hubs). One key difference is the absence of a day-night cycle, so the city remains active around the clock.

After 70 hours of play, I think I’ve explored all the major story routes across the factions—Faithkeepers, Stalwarts, Evolvers, and Pilgrims. Each path offers a unique conclusion, ranging from exiling opposing factions to reconciling with them, or keeping them separated under your control. Lily’s various endings also stand out, showcasing her diverse roles, from wielding a knife to becoming a Faithkeeper librarian or acquiring different prosthetics as an Evolver.

In terms of strategy, adapting to the frost seems to be the easier path for maintaining nearly endless resources. With permanent outpost settlements and an adaptive generator that accepts any fuel, it’s quite efficient. On the other hand, choosing to defeat the frost is much more challenging, requiring a careful balance of deep deposits, industrial expansion, and managing oil as the sole fuel source.

The game’s scale is impressive, with high stakes in both political and resource management. Each faction has its own preferred laws, often conflicting with others, and it’s up to you to decide what’s best for the city. Negotiating with other factions can be useful, but it often involves making promises that could contradict previous decisions, making it a constant balancing act.

While it might not replicate the exact feel of *Frostpunk 1*, it’s still a fantastic game for anyone who loves city-building. I’d give it a solid 8.5/10.

last AC game i played was Last Raven and compared to that, AC6 is much more streamlined and controls are much smoother. i know a lot was removed since AC4 but i was surprised tuning was also removed which was something i like to tinker with back then. they also dont have radiators, inside parts and side extensions too. But since they removed the side extensions, the acs now have built in side dashes(dodging). If people are saying the controls in this game are sluggish because they play mainly souls games, imagine the struggles of playing the older entries of AC.

What if Stray Cat was on a spaceship instead of Kosaku Kawajiri's backyard

super cheap yet super high replay value filled with mindless fun that scratches that minion wave clearing itch.

also, JOJO REFERENCES!

FELLA MUUPI

its a GACHA game. where the gacha are the swimsuits and the auto battle is volleyball. you can unlock some animations and poses for the photo mode too. unlock furniture for your room to take more photos. jiggle physics are top tier too. there is also a bit of dating sim i think. play this if you're tired of normal gacha games and want some eye candy.

the're PVP and PVE modes in the game. there's an overworld map ala Mount and Blade where you and your units can fight npcs and get resources to upgrade your units. you can fight with different types of weapons and equip different types of armor. what kind of armor u wear depends on your weapon class as well. for example, if you equip a bow, you cant use heavy armor.

but the meat and potatoes of this game from what i experience is the PVP siege battles where you first have to queue matchmaking like any other pvp game when you're in a town and once u get in a game, you will fight other players attacking or defending a castle. from here, the battle plays like Mount and blade where u command your units and fight other players units but how the fight differs from Mount and Blade is that it feels more like Dynasty Warriors except that the mobs actually hurt you if you're not careful.

overall i'd give it a 7.5/10 cuz its kinda grindy to unlock and upgrade units
