They went back on their promises to never censor the game, what other promises are they going to break for money?

I cannot recommend this game until they revert the censorship they did.

Pros:

Unique and addictive gameplay: The combination of poker, deck-building, and roguelike elements creates a refreshing and highly engaging experience.
Simple yet strategic: The core mechanics are easy to grasp, but the depth of strategy and decision-making keeps things challenging.
Charming visuals and sound: The pixel art style and atmospheric soundtrack contribute to the overall charm and immersion of the game.
Replayability: With its procedural generation and various unlockables, the game offers a high level of replayability, encouraging us to return for more runs and challenges.

Cons:

Occasional difficulty spikes: Some may find certain encounters or challenges to be quite difficult, requiring careful planning and execution.
Limited deck-building options: While there are many cards to collect, I fell that the overall number of deck-building archetypes can feel somewhat limited.
Lack of online multiplayer: The lack of online multiplayer options is a disappointment.

Wolfenstein: The New Order is a first-person shooter that takes players on a thrilling journey through a world dominated by the Nazis. Set in an alternate history where the Axis powers won World War II, the game blends elements of classic FPS titles with a fresh, modern aesthetic.

// A Familiar Yet Innovative Gameplay Experience //

-- The core gameplay of The New Order is a familiar one for fans of the genre. Players navigate through levels, eliminating Nazi soldiers and other enemies with a variety of weapons. However, the game introduces a number of new elements that keep the experience fresh and engaging. These include:

--- Stealth mechanics: While the game encourages aggressive combat, players can also opt for a (more rewarding) stealthier approach. Stealth killing is particularly satisfying, and can be a valuable tool, especially when outnumbered or facing heavily armored enemies.

--- Character development: The game features a strong narrative and well-developed characters. Players will form bonds with their allies, and their choices can have a significant impact on the story.

--- Level design: The levels in The New Order are varied and well-designed. There are plenty of opportunities for exploration, and the game is full of secrets and hidden areas.
A Visually Stunning and Immersive World

-- One of the most impressive aspects of The New Order is its presentation. The game features stunning visuals, with detailed environments and realistic character models. The soundtrack is also excellent, and it helps to create a tense and atmospheric atmosphere.

// A Strong Narrative and Memorable Characters //

-- The story of Wolfenstein: The New Order is one of its greatest strengths. The game's alternate history setting is fascinating, and the characters are well-written and memorable. The game's ending is particularly satisfying, and it leaves players eager for more.

// Conclusion //

-- Imagine stepping into the grimy shoes of a professional crime scene cleaner. Your job: to meticulously scrub away the evidence of a grisly crime, restoring the scene to its original state. This is the world of Crime Scene Cleaner, a unique simulation game that delves into the often overlooked details of this demanding profession.

// Gameplay Mechanics //

-- A Toolkit for the Gruesome: Armed with a mop, a sponge, and specialized cleaning agents, you'll need to strategically tackle each stain and speck of evidence. It's like playing a real-life puzzle, but with a whole lot more blood and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is there a lot of it. You will at least ask your self once: "How the hell did this blood stain get up there?"

-- Evidence Hunter: Every crime scene hides a treasure trove of clues. Your job is to sniff them out - fingerprints, DNA samples, and physical evidence. But be careful, one missed detail could ruin the entire case.

-- Restoration Master: Once the evidence is bagged and tagged, it's time to undo the damage. Repair broken furniture, scrub away bloodstains, and make the scene look like nothing ever happened. Think of it as a high-stakes game of "Spot the Difference".

-- Leveling Up: As you complete cases, you'll unlock new tools, techniques, and even more challenging crime scenes. It's like earning badges of honor, but in a much more... disturbing way.

-- A World of Filth: The game's environments are incredibly detailed, from cluttered apartments to sprawling mansions. You'll feel the grime beneath your fingers and the stench of decay in the air.

-- Sound of Silence: The audio design is equally immersive. The eerie silence of an abandoned crime scene, the distant wail of a siren, or even the muffled sobs of a victim's family - it all adds to the tense atmosphere.

-- The Challenge of Cleanliness: Cleaning a crime scene isn't just about scrubbing. You'll face complex stains, hidden evidence, and even time constraints that will put your skills to the test. It's like a real-life detective game, but with a lot less glamour.

-- The Ethics of Cleanup: The game also explores the ethical dilemmas of the job. Should you preserve a piece of evidence that might be overlooked? How do you deal with the personal belongings of the victims? These are tough questions that will force you to think critically.

// Replayability and Customization //

-- A Variety of Cases: With multiple difficulty levels and procedurally generated crime scenes, there's always something new to discover. No two cases are ever the same.

-- Personalize Your Cleanup: Customize your cleaning tools to make the experience truly your own.

-- The Never-Ending Cleanup: There's always another crime scene waiting to be cleaned. Whether you're a completionist or just love the thrill of the hunt, Crime Scene Cleaner offers a good amount of replayability.

// Conclusion //

Crime Scene Cleaner is a unique and immersive simulation game that offers a glimpse into the often overlooked world of crime scene cleaning. With its realistic environments, challenging gameplay, and ethical dilemmas, it's a game that will both fascinate and disturb you in equal measure.

One of my childhood greatest game

The whole serie is amazing, Play HL1 with the expansions then play HL2, Ep1 and Ep2.

Sadly there won't be an Ep3 or HL3 but it was an amazing trip. 10/10!!

Patience, lots lots and lots of patience is required to play this game.

Focus on one class first, practice, get good, master it and then switch to another.
