Ever felt like playing Touhou but you're too much of a noob to actually play Touhou?
Well worry not, Vanripper got you covered with Awaria.
With the same iconic artstyle from Helltaker, some bullet hell and humorous story, Varipper has blessed us with another great game. Words cannot describe how much I enjoyed playing this game, even if just for over an hour.
It should be illegal to make an excelent game like this and releasing it for free.
If you can, I urge you, please buy the DLC and show our little boney head some love.
He deserves it.
Thank you Vanripper for this awesome game, and of course Mittsies for the awesome soundtrack.
You guys are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ legends <3

This game is actually better metroidvania than a fap material. Originaly i downloaded a pirated version to try it out but decided to buy the game in the end. Let's adress the elephant in the room. It is a porn game. You will see boobs on every corner. However, if 95% of all porn games on steam are there to just make you pay borderline extorcionate ammount of money for fap material (looking at you, Nekopara), then Flip Witch falls into that tiny 5% category that actually focuses more on the gameplay and the erotic conent is a rewarded collectable. I share the sentiment of many people, that this game is too good to be a porn game, and would profit in many ways from having a non-NSFW version. Tho that is very unlikely. I believe that the team behind this game is very talented when it comes to game development and so the only thing I can do, is to hope that one day, one day, they will make a game that doesn't have that much pornographic content, so that they can receive proper praise and acknowledgement that they deserve in my opinion.

Awesome DLC. Miyazaki said it will be the size of Limgrave. What he forgot to tell us, was that he stacked 5 Limgraves on top of each other. The new upgrade system is a great counter against people who want to go in with Max lvl character and steamroll through it. The new NPC quests, bosses, weapons, ashes of war feel awesome, though some of them will need slight adjustment. However it is not perfect. While the ending of the DLC does give us sume new lore, it isn't really as impactful for the whole narrative like how for example The Ringed City DLC was for Dark Souls 3.
Additionaly I have a problem with few bosses that I hope Fromsoft will fix in the future (SPOILERS Ahead):

As a boss meant to be fought on horsebact I have two major problems with him. First is that he has very weird and unrealistic tracking to the point where in the middle of dashing attack he is able to basicaly turn 360° on the spot, while dashing. It's the same problem as was with stars or ruin before the nerf. You have a massive enemy, charging at you, while riding a fu##ing boar, and snapping at you, like a guided missile from a looney toon episode. Second problem is the oversigt that if you decide to spawn in a spirit ash, you basically screw yourself over. You see, the opening attack the boss does, is the charge. On it's own it's okay but the problem lies in the fact, that when he hits you, he throws you back to the fog wall and then the boss runs into a fog wall, he doesn't stop the attack, instead continues to charge into the fog wall, effectively stunlocking you into an instakill.

With Radahn I have just a one simple problem that I genuinely hope Fromsoft will fix. My current PC has the reccomended specs to run the DLC. Just to make sure I lowered the graphics settings to minimum. But even after all that, whenever I got to the second phase all the light attacks and effects caused my FPS to drop from stable 80 to 5-10, rendering the fight basically impossible for me to beat. Afterward I attempted many fixes: close all other programs, try to overclock the graphics card (bad idea), update all drivers, tinkered with the settings of my PC, etc. Nothing helped and I was left with only one last option, which was to summon other players to help me beat this boss. Radahn is an absolute Chad among gods, his bossfight was brutal and it was something I didn't even knew I needed but my god, not satisfied with just choking me, in the second phase he goes and tries to euthanize my computer. Besides this massive technical issue it was great

If you enjoyed the base game and want something more, this DLC is for you. I can't reccomend it enough but I hope Fromsoft will deliver fixes and patches to make it more polished.

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME. Ever since the beggining of 2024, Soulworker has been under a new management. That is Valfoe. While the game has recieved content updates, within a span of a one year it has become incredibly pay 2 win, the devs ruined trading, which in result destroyed the ingame economy.
In one year Valfoe managed to gang-bang, burn, butcher, demolish and vaporize anything and everything that made this game fun. It is the process of No Man's Sky, but in reverse.
Majority of players are just AFK, new content just lazily recycles the old one. Even with their desperate expansion to China, the player numbers only rose by 600 (effectively doubling the player numbers at the time).
And Valfoe killed it.
They just don't want to admit it and are fightinig tooth and nail to keep it on life support just so that they can squeeze just a little bit more money out of you.

They killed my favourite game. It wasn't the best game out there, but I liked it...
And there will probably never be anything like it ever again...


Original review:
I've been playing this game for over 6 years now... including the old version and I would say it's one of those underrated MMOs. Many people will complain that there is no character creation like in other games, however, I see that as a sort of refreshment. While on one hand it's nice to have character customization to the point where you can create an absolute crime against nature, like in the souls games, it's refreshing to have a character with limited customization that gives the guy you play as just a bit more personality. You don't necessarily create your own character, you follow a story of a character you decide to play as.

Besides character creation the game is a simple dungeon based MMO. Just go in, kill everything, come out. It can be a little repetitive, especially before you get to the endgame but it doesn't make the game unplayable.

I have to admit that my opinion is very biased. I do enjoy this game but I can list out a few things I have a problem with.
First of all while the game has somewhat interesting lore, it's hidden behin thousands and thousands of lines of dialog and NPC quest, which doesn't nacessarily bother me, but many people do have problem with this and it is a valid criticism. Not everyone has the time to become a wannabe VaatiVidya and dig though the lore.
Second is the criticism towards the playable character Lee Nabi and Dhana Opini, both of which start at lvl 45 due to lore related reasons but the game doesn't limit you from playing them immediately after you download the game for the first time. I have to emphasize this point because it is important to realize that if you choose any other character, it takes you somewhere between 5 and 15 hours before you get from lvl 1 to lvl 45 (the time differs based on if you only do the main story quest or also do all the side quest and 100% progression). These hours are specifically designed so that the new players can get acustomed to the game and properly learn and understand the most basic mechanics. However, if you pick any of the above mentioned characters, you skip this enite section of the game and get trown into what can be described as the old endgame, that was in it's prime about 7 years back. Personaly I've ecountered many Nabi playes who just picked up the game and had no idea what they are supposed to do while being in one of the early end-game locations, just because they though "big booba sniper goes brrrr." I've stopped counting after running into 60 players that were like this. A simple solution for this problem would be for the devs to lock both characters and only unlocking them after you reach lvl 45 with a different character.

And since I'm on the topic of characters there is a vide variety of them. 10 to be exact. Each with their own personality, playstyle and their positives and negatives. Unfortunately this game has seen a large ammount of controversy and one of the biggest being in reation to the character due to the fact that out of the 10 characters, only two of them are male, the second one being added as the 5th playable character, back around 2016. While it makes a certain inbalance, it's not as severe since the writing on MOST of the female characters is good enough to counteract this negative. The reason behind this controversy was more buisness sided, rather than game sided, since speculations are that the devs saw the success of a new female character with the release of Chii Aruel, the 7th released character, and decided to milk this strategy for all it's worth.

Last but not least, many people say that this game is heavily pay to win, and while it is true that it requires a lot of grinding in the endgame to have a proper gear, it is decently possible to be comepletely free to play and get into the endgame. Many requirements for the endgame can be surpassed just by participating in events that from time to time give you the necessary tools to set up your character, mainly special equipment on outfits known as brooches, and also by looking up the official "birthday" of the character that you play and logging in on that specific day to get a free outfit that allows you to equip all the necessary brooches you need. And even if you are not that lucky, the cheapest costumes in the cash shop (the one that requires real money) can be found for prices between 10 and 15$ which is a decent price. Especially if you count in the fact that SoulWorker is free to play, you have a possible alternative to get by without paying and that the moment when you're required to play is after around 50 hours of playtime (even more if you decide to try and play multiple characters, for which you don't even need to pay to unlock a new character slot).

Overall even though it is not the best game in terms of polish, even though the game had its fair share of controversies, it is a game worth playing so if you are thinking about playing it, just give it a try. If you like it and decide to stick around, we'll be happy to help you, the community is supportive and the community discord is very helpful (discord.gg/soulworker btw)

After playing this game for more than 4 years it break my heart to not reccomend this game. The gameplay is fun and interesting, same goes for each character and their playstyles but it's just unplayable. There are so many broken characters in this game that every match for more than past 6 months is not about skill. If you have team full of broken characters, you win, the end. It's sad watching the change from how 2 years ago you'd see all sorts of champions rotate in your team or the enemy's while now you can be sure that at least 3 out of 10 broken characters will be either in yours or the enemy's team. Where's the fun in that? Why does this have to force everyone to play one of those broken characters otherwise the game is pointless since you're destined to lose?
If you want an example here goes: champion VII can use talent that allows one of his abilities to drop 3 bombs that deal 250 DMG each. He drops 6 bombs in total while using this skill. You can combine that with a card that instantly resets the cooldown of this ability if you use a different one, so basicaly 12 bombs that deal in total 3000 DMG (average HP of a champion is around 2300). He can pull this off withing 3 seconds. Not to mention that this resets after each kill he gets. You can't remotely destroy the bombs by shooting them and it takes 6 seconds for them to despawn. And that's just VII. After that there's the Harpoon spaming Dredge, the Immortal Rei, Flame wall Fernando, the Undying Azzan and so on.
It's so sad watching how this game fell from grace and for the time being... it's best not to play the game. It's not fun anymore

Malá indie hříčka která vás na menší počet hodinek zabaví. Cíl hry je nejvíc bizardní a přitom to dobře hře přidává humoru. Vy, jakožto hlavní protagonista se jednoho dne rozhodnete, že se vydáte do pekla a vytvoříte si vlastní harém plný demon girls. Hra má celkem 10 úrovní, ve kterých musíte procházet logickými hádankami a máte omezený počet tahů a na závěr jako třešnička na dortu je finální mini boss fight. Hra má jednoduchou ale vzato krásnou vizualizaci, art design je též pěkný, soundtrack je chytlavý a postavy mají ač jednoduché, tak zábavné osobnosti.
Hra mě rozhodně zabavila, ba i jen na malou chvíli a za to co nabízí nemůžu udělat nic jiného, než ji doporučit.
Dávám 10/10

Team Fortress 2... one of the greatest, most iconic and goofiest FPS game out there. I don't regret a single minute of my life, that I've spent playing this game, however, I can't reccomend it. The casual matchmaking is literally unplayable thanks to a group of basement dwellers who have spent the past 6 years doing nothing but host hundreds, if not thousands of cheating bots that are able to one-shot kill you with aimbot from the other side of the map. In addition they spam the ingame chat and voice chat with all kinds of racist, homophobic and hatefull stuff, besides the bassboosted crap that caused me severe hearing loss for few months. The most hypocytical thing is that Valve tried to fight against them by taking aways the ability to use text and voice chat from free to play accounts. Which points towards the fact that all of the bot accounts are premium account (meaning they have purchased something in the ingame store), meaning that Valve is making money off of people that intentionally ruin their game.
As long as Valve doesn't fix their game, my review will remain negative.
If you want to help the cause go to save.tf and help to spread the word.
It's been six years. The bot hosters had their fun. Now it's our turn to make bomb threads under their name and get their houses swated.

Soulworker z mého pohledu je výborné Anime MMO RPG. Ve hře dostanete na výběr ze šesti postav s jedinou povahou, hra nabídne zajímavý příběh a vyhodí vás do skvěle propracovaného světa.
Sám o sobě mám horší počítač avšak i na nejnižší detaily vypadá hra nádherně.
Mínusem je asi omezený iventář, který se celkem pomalu expanduje a sehnání materiálu na kosmetické pŕedměty trvá občas déle, avšak to by bylo asi tak vše.
Zapoměl jsem ještě zmínit, že každá postava má unikátní útoky, které můžete bez problémů naskládat do komba, se kterým jednoduše zametete s nepřáteli

Za mě osobně hru doporučuji i lidem, kteří žánr Anime nemají moc v lásce (ne opravdu v té grafice to ani nejde poznat). Na druhou stranu ale buďte připraveni, jestli máte rádi lore, kterému se vám zde dostane kupa, bude vás čekat hodně čtení.

Za mě 9/10
Je to Anime hra s možností vykombit enemáky na sračky. Kdo by to nechtěl

Úžasná 16-ti bitová hra. Má chytlavý příběh, skvěle napsané postavy, skvěĺy soundtrack který vás občas doslova nutí trsat do rytmu a snaží se člověka navést na správnou cestu, jak tuhle hru hrát. a pokud vás hra nebaví, na internetu je tuna komiksových příběhu na různé verze příběhu hry. Na 200% dávám 10/10

Boží survival hra s důrazným detailem na design. Nebudu nic zpoilerovat avšak má překrásné prostředí, zajímaví přiběh a nádhernou grafiku i když to skusíte na nejnižší detaily. Jediné co, tak je zde několik bugů a proto dávám 9/10
