It's not that the DLC is bad, it's just that it adds so little content.

These stuffs are kinda welcome add-ons.

Having this DLC enables masks on all your team members, protecting them and their patients from infections.
Like really lol.

🚑 A Thrilling and Thought-Provoking Emergency Dispatcher Experience

Game Name: Operator 112

Rating: 8/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟

🚨 How I Felt: As someone who hadn’t played the prequel, I went into Operator 112 with little expectation but was pleasantly surprised. The game keeps you on edge with its varied and high-stakes scenarios, making you feel the pressure of making life-altering decisions in real-time.

📞 Gameplay: The gameplay revolves around answering emergency calls, each with its own set of challenges and moral dilemmas. While the core mechanics stay relatively consistent throughout, the cases themselves are diverse, offering plot twists and tough choices that keep the experience engaging. The interface is simple and intuitive, allowing for quick decision-making, and there’s a nice level of continuity for returning players through callbacks to the previous game.

✅ Conclusion: Overall, Operator 112 is a gripping, immersive experience that excels at making you feel the weight of your choices. While it can get repetitive over time, it’s still a deeply engaging game with a lot of replay value. If you're into decision-based gameplay and intense, moral storytelling, I’d highly recommend picking it up. Final Rating: 8/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟.

Game Review: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora™

Rating: 5/10

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora™ has a lot of potential with its stunning visuals and immersive world, but I’m just not sold on it at the current price. The game takes you into the lush, vibrant landscapes of Pandora, and the environments are absolutely beautiful, really capturing the essence of the movie. The gameplay is decent, with a mix of exploration, combat, and story-driven missions.

However, it feels a bit too familiar and doesn’t offer anything groundbreaking in terms of gameplay mechanics. The story seems to take a backseat to the visuals, and while the world-building is impressive, I’m not entirely hooked by the gameplay loop. The price tag feels a bit steep for what’s on offer, and I’m personally waiting for a bigger discount before making the purchase.

If the price drops to around $5 or $6, I’d definitely consider picking it up. The game has potential, but it just doesn’t feel worth the current cost. If you're a huge fan of the Avatar universe, it might still be worth checking out, but for me, I’ll hold off until it becomes a bit more affordable.

Game Review: ICARUS

Rating: 5/10

ICARUS is a survival game with a lot of potential, but I just couldn’t get the hang of it. The game puts you on an alien planet, where you must gather resources, build shelter, and survive against the elements, all while completing various missions. There’s a lot of depth in terms of crafting, exploration, and managing your survival, which could be fun for players who enjoy the genre.

However, for me, it felt a bit overwhelming. The learning curve is steep, and the mechanics don’t feel as intuitive as I hoped they would. I found myself struggling to get a solid grip on how to effectively progress, which made the experience frustrating at times.

That being said, if you’re a fan of survival games and enjoy the challenge of mastering complex systems, ICARUS might be worth a try. It offers a lot for those who are willing to put in the time to learn and adapt to its mechanics. Unfortunately, it just didn’t click for me, but it could still be enjoyable for others.

Game Review: Velvet 89

Rating: 9/10

As a huge fan of hidden object games, especially those that incorporate hidden cats, Velvet 89 had me hooked from the very start. While it does feature the beloved hidden object gameplay that I adore, it’s so much more than that. The game offers a rich and intriguing narrative that unfolds as you progress through the puzzles. The story, while running in the background, is compelling and adds a depth that I didn’t expect from a hidden object game.

The gameplay itself is exactly what you’d expect from the genre: you’re tasked with finding a series of hidden items within beautifully crafted scenes. But what sets Velvet 89 apart is how seamlessly the story is woven into the gameplay. As you uncover objects, you also uncover pieces of the narrative, making each level feel like a part of a larger, unfolding mystery. This makes the game feel less like a typical hidden object title and more like an adventure that you get to actively engage with.

I really enjoyed how the game doesn’t just focus on finding hidden items but also encourages you to pay attention to the world around you, piece by piece, building the overall story. The integration of the narrative creates an immersive experience that kept me engaged from beginning to end.

The art design is gorgeous, with visually rich environments that help set the atmosphere for the story. And as someone who loves hidden cats in these games, I was not disappointed! The playful challenge of finding them amidst the clutter adds an extra layer of enjoyment.

The only reason it’s not a perfect 10/10 is that some of the puzzles can feel a bit repetitive after a while. While the story keeps you invested, the gameplay mechanics don't vary much, and the hidden object scenes can start to blend together. However, this is a minor flaw in an otherwise captivating game.

Overall, Velvet 89 is a hidden object game with heart, and its intriguing narrative elevates it above the typical genre experience. If you’re a fan of hidden object games and enjoy a well-told story, this one is definitely worth your time!

Game Review: Apartament 1406: Horror

Rating: 5/10

Apartament 1406: Horror is a short, eerie puzzle game that delivers a decent horror experience, though it ultimately falls short in a few areas. The game places you in an unsettling environment—an old, creepy apartment—and challenges you with puzzles that you must solve in order to escape. The atmosphere is definitely its strongest point, with dark, claustrophobic environments and a sense of dread lurking around every corner.

The horror elements are subtle but effective, leaning on tension and a slow build-up rather than outright scares. This is great for fans of atmospheric horror, but for those looking for a more intense, jump-scare heavy experience, it might not hit the mark.

The puzzles themselves are engaging but not overly difficult, making the game feel more like a quick, casual experience rather than a complex challenge. However, the simplicity of the puzzles could be a bit of a downside for players looking for more of a brain-teaser. The game’s short length also means that it doesn’t have much time to develop its ideas fully, leaving some elements feeling underexplored.

For what it offers, Apartament 1406 is an alright game for fans of short horror experiences. It delivers on atmosphere and has some interesting moments, but it’s not particularly groundbreaking in terms of gameplay or scares. If you're looking for a quick, puzzle-driven horror game with a decent story, it might be worth checking out—but it doesn't quite stand out in a crowded genre.

In conclusion, it’s a decent, albeit forgettable, experience. Definitely worth a try if you’re into short, atmospheric horror games, but don’t expect too much depth.

Game Review: Russian Life Simulator

Rating: 3/10

Russian Life Simulator is a clicker game that, to be honest, didn’t quite impress me. While it’s certainly low-cost (barely anything), I couldn’t shake the feeling that it doesn’t offer much beyond its initial gimmicks. The game has some quirky moments, including strange memes and things like Putin dancing, which might give you a chuckle at first. However, those moments quickly wear off and don’t offer enough to keep you coming back.

As a clicker game, the core gameplay revolves around repetitive clicking to progress. The mechanics are straightforward and don’t bring anything new to the genre. While the memes and weird humor might appeal to some, it doesn’t offer much in terms of depth or meaningful progression. After going through it once, I found there was little incentive to play again, making it feel like a one-time novelty rather than a game worth revisiting.

I wouldn’t have minded spending a few bucks if there was more substance, but as it stands, it feels more like something that should be free to play. You might enjoy it for a short laugh, but the novelty quickly fades. If you’re into quirky, meme-heavy games and don’t mind clicking through repetitive tasks, you might get some enjoyment out of it. But for me, Russian Life Simulator didn’t hold my attention long enough to justify playing it again.

In the end, this is a game that’s fun for a short while but doesn’t offer much beyond that. I’d recommend it if it were free, but even at such a low price, it doesn’t feel like it’s worth more than a single playthrough.

Game Review: Hitman GO

Rating: 9/10

Hitman GO is a fantastic blend of board game mechanics and stealth strategy, offering a fresh take on the classic Hitman series. As someone who enjoys puzzle and board game-style games, I found this one incredibly satisfying. The puzzles are clever, and the progression is solid, gradually introducing new mechanics and visual styles that keep things fresh. Every time you unlock a new level, it feels like you’re opening a new box with exciting challenges inside, making the game engaging without becoming repetitive.

The core gameplay involves strategically moving Agent 47 across a grid, taking out targets, and avoiding detection, all while solving increasingly complex puzzles. What really impressed me was how the game marries the hitman concept with these board game elements. Each level is like a little puzzle box, and you have to think critically about your moves to achieve the objectives without getting caught.

The visuals are sleek and minimalist, which perfectly suits the tone of the game and doesn’t overwhelm the puzzle-solving experience. The game’s sense of progression is satisfying as well, with new obstacles, enemy types, and environments being introduced gradually, keeping you engaged and excited to see what comes next.

I picked this game up in a bundle with a discount, and it’s absolutely worth it, especially if you can catch it on sale. If you enjoy puzzle games with a strategic edge and like the idea of the Hitman universe in a more laid-back format, Hitman GO is a must-try. Even though I’ve played similar puzzle games, this one stands out for its clever design, smooth progression, and that satisfying "solve the puzzle, execute the plan" feeling. Highly recommended, especially if you can grab it on a deal!
