stanley parable if it was cringe

Ghostrunner is a seriously impressive game. Its movement, combat, and overall gameplay is some of the most fun you can ask for in a platformer, hack'n'slash game like this. Very Dishonored-esque vibes from this. The overall theme and environment of the game is not only interesting, but equally beautiful. There are some scenes in the game that are worth taking screenshots of, which the game encourages with a Photo Mode.

At an average price, it is well worth the money. I'm not amazing at the game, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and beat it in 7 hours, but there is replayability for collectibles and a New Game+ mode.

The only complaint I have with this game - but I still highly recommend it - is that it has a variety of features and mechanics it tries to introduce that feel contradictory to the pacing of the game. Almost every Cybervoid level (a pixelated, digital world you enter at times throughout the game) feels like a chore rather than being enjoyable, and seriously drags the game's pacing down. You go from rushing through levels, chopping up enemies, to doing methodical and frustrating puzzles that can take a while to get through.

There are also a few enemies the game introduces that also feel like they do not belong with the game's playstyle, which will become apparent as you progress. I could do without some of these enemies, but it's not a deal breaker for the game by any means.

Ghostrunner is very much Hotline Miami meets Dishonored, and worth picking up.

like sims but in the zombie apocalypse

definitely the most accessible and unique battle royale

This is the Police 2 is a great management/simulation story game that picks up well from the story of its predecessor. It's fairly easy to pick up, and quite hard to put down. If you enjoy management sims that are somewhat story-driven, this game might be for you, and it's a fairly worthy successor to the original.

While the game has its drawbacks, the gameplay itself is phenomenal. It's something you just want to keep playing and you don't want to step away from. This is accompanied by a fairly immersive and beautiful soundtrack to really set the ambiance. While there are parts of the story that feel rushed or disappointing, it was overall a good storytelling experience albeit one that needed a few tweaks. That's what most of the problems in this game boiled down to: a few small tweaks to make a great game perfect.

Among the few things that would prevent me from recommending this game in complete earnest would be the assault mechanic. Sometimes, you have to conduct a police assault, which plays out in an XCOM-style, turn-based format very much unlike the rest of the game. While the concept is great on paper, the gameplay of it feels extremely clunky, unwieldy, and is downright infuriating at times. The reliance on RNG in the combat is far more frustrating than anything you would ever experience in XCOM.

Additionally, while you can skip entire cutscenes, you can't fast-forward through dialog or skip lines. You have to sit through the entire cutscene, with no quickening of any capacity, if you want to engage in the story. This is especially annoying in the beginning and near the end of the game, where some unskippable minigames pop up. There are also a number of things that would be great if you could skip to hurry up the process - day-to-day animations that only take a few seconds, but this time adds up.

The replay is also lacking. The story is set for you and there isn't anything you can do about it. Many factors in the story are simply scripted to happen regardless of your actions. The game would feel a lot better if you could choose the path Jack goes down, or choose actions in cutscenes somehow.

Apart from that, I've found it hard to put down this game. It's not at a bad price, and I got a lot of enjoyment out of it even if I don't think I'll play through again.

Dead In Vinland is a resource-management survival game that follows the story of a Nordic family trying to survive in a foreign land after exile.

For being made by an indie studio, the game is quite well-done and the character development is quite good, even without the "Norse Side Stories" DLC. There's a bit of something for everyone in this game; turn-based, RPG-style combat, a storyline, survival, exploration, simulation, skills, and more.

While the storyline is not award-winning by any means and can be quite cliche, it's very welcome that there's a robust story at all in this type of game. It adds more objectives to your game instead of just outright surviving, and the fact that there is two main objectives in the story is proof of this.

I would recommend this game for anyone due to its above-average replayability, its great resource management and survival aspects, and overall enjoyability. It's the kind of game that you have a hard time putting down once you start it. Its DLC also cover any bases that may leave something to be desired, and overall the game and its DLC is fairly priced.

That said, the game isn't perfect. There are a lot of important factors that rely on skill-checks and thus are RNG that can only be influenced by your talents. If you play on True Viking (Ironman) you won't be able to reload if your 99 Strength character fails an important skill check with 99% probability, and if you don't use True Viking, you'll just be tempted to reload every time you fail a skill check. While some checks can be made 100%, not all of them can be, and at times the repercussions for failing even once can be quite severe; it's definitely something that made me frustrated more than once while playing the game.

Also, not to the game's fault, but I find the game can become formulaic and stale if you delve too deep online. When you start looking up strategies, guides, or answers for certain things, you'll become too tempted to stop at just one question being answered, and ultimately will ruin the mystery and fun for yourself if you do so. A big part of this game is trial and error, learning from your mistakes, and finding what works best for you, so do that rather than looking anything up like I did.

Overall, I'd definitely give this game a shot, and I can see this studio doing great things in the future. From what I've seen, they seem really committed and passionate in their work and it's nice to support indie game studios.

Do Not Feed The Monkeys is a game where you play as somebody chosen to watch over various "primates" in "cages." You will be tasked with spying on and discovering information about these "primates" which can grant you rewards in cash.

The game becomes more interesting when you "feed the monkeys." You can use the information gained from spying on "the monkeys" to contact or in some way interact with the monkeys indirectly. These can have numerous repercussions - good or bad - and can quite literally change people's lives. Feed the monkeys at your own discretion.

The replay value is not significantly high but you will get at least half a day's worth or more of time from this game. You will have to juggle resource management, time, and money. You can disregard your job entirely and work real-world jobs, or stay in your den and spy on people to your heart's content. Whatever you do, don't get caught feeding the monkeys.

Despite the popular opinion being against this mod, I speak in favor of it. While I understand and agree with the sentiments that this DLC focuses too much outside of Iberia and doesn't add enough content, I would argue that it adds more than enough for its price tag.

Further, it doesn't add anything that you can't live without having. This is contrary to a lot of expansions and even immersion packs, which had features that would detriment you if you did not own said DLC. This DLC does its job well - it does provide flavor, mechanics, and intrigue to Iberia and areas associated with it, and while it may not be perfect, it also includes the content pack (Music and units) for only $10.

If you want more flavor in Iberia, you can buy this for a relatively low price. If you don't care, you don't buy it, and your gameplay isn't impacted negatively. That's a plus to me.
