It was downright beautiful, there are "minor" backtracking for achievement hunters but aside from it, it's a very short mixture of a game, and feels a little like Metroidvania but made in 3D landscape, wonderful regardless, no wonder why it became one of the cult games

It's a modest adventure-ccg deckbuilding mix-up rather than a roguelike, I felt the need of writing the review because this was the only game I've purchased despite the mixed reviews, and I'm glad I did so.

In Cardaclysm you run around collecting your resources (mana) that are permanent on you and gets refreshed everytime you finish a combat. Mana is mainly used for summoning monsters and there are few spells that you can cast independently from your summons. It's a short game but it gets you to think and plan accordingly for certain encounters, which is the popular catch of deckbuilder games anyway. There is a small grind about towards to the end of the game but if you like ccg and tactics then it won't really put you off.
Fair price and no reason why not to play it given you enjoy ccg deckbuilders, ignore the oblivious reviews and watch some actual gameplay off of YT

Something something, it's wholesome, eerie, a little bitter maybe at times. It's no visual novel but a walking adventure for your heart.
Coming from Fran Brow, Sally Face and DDLC, you'll like Sumire too without a doubt, no comparison since they all are different journeys from each other, but for even at a modest price tag, why skip this short but warm art piece?

One of those games that you finally grow a big liking towards to it's end and don't want it to end, but then it ends anyways.
Hell Yeah is late 90's style kind of gun and shoot type of platformer, it's a casual game where you are on a conquest to save the pride of our naked king-lord skeleton rabbit by assassinating his not-so-loyal servants.
Hell Yeah has gore, Hell Yeah has dark humor, but they all made in the most wholesome way possible, and the soundtracks of the game are neat.

It's not really a huge big devote your days kind of game but a short funny ride.

Stray is a mixture of walking simulator and a little pinch of action, you follow a linear story (which is a good and heartwarming one) with many collectibles possibly making your journey even more colorful.
The game itself is only about 2~3 hours long, 4 hours if you really take your time overstaying everywhere to find every collectible. Visually it's outstanding and the general audio is pleasant.

For achievement hunters; this one has one of the abysmal horror complete-Rng achievements, thankfully it's a short one, but depending on your luck you might have to replay the challenge for hours, or maybe days, I was just lucky and got it in about 15 minutes, just a heads up for the ones that don't enjoy losing hair strands over achievements x)

Just finished doing the 100%, it's an interesting (maybe even a masterpiece) game, I'll try to explain why:

First, this is a text narrative game, I usually dislike "no gameplay but a story to read" games except for exceptional ones such like Sally Face, Fran Bow, DDLC, The Red Strings Club and so on, you get the idea. I'll easily say that this one is no different.
The game has 7-8 mini-games built in it, each following the storyline and each being dramatic chapters.
I won't be mentioning the story since what makes Gods Will Be Watching is it's story and constant plot twists.
Majority of the mini-games have their RNG to them, but the game is generous as it allows you to disable / enable these RNG elements on will and you could even play it like as if it's a VN but the achievements will be only obtainable through RNG involved difficulties.
There is some replayability but the game allows you to launch any chapter to your liking once you unlock these.
It's probably one of those titles that you have to experience through at least once in your life.

Currently there's nothing to recommend about this software, it's not really game. Basically you just collect things which takes about a minute and then it's over. No dialogue, no twist, really there's just nothing in it.
