The year is 2013. I was 13 years old back then. I remember sending an email to my brother about this game, when the first trailer came out. "Look at the landscapes", I said. I was in love with the art, the scenarios, the fact that the disease is fungi-based wasn't just convenient for the script, but for the entire art style of the game. Green. Lots of green. Some of the most beautiful graphics I've ever seen. And I'm talking about the PS3 release.

The year is 2023 and we have seen or played TLOU 2, the game was renamed to "The Last Of Us Part I", the TV show came out and the PC port is on the way. The release wasn't very pleasant to say the least: it was another case of a bad port.

Anyway, I decided to give it a chance anyway. I knew most of the story: watched the TV show, gameplays back from the day (never had a PS until later) and played it a bit in PlayStation 4, although I suck at aiming with a controller. So I sticked with the PC version.

I had a blast. I couldn't get my hands off this game. I think I played about 2 hours every day. Sometimes even 4 hours. I don't play games more than one hour, I'm usually very busy, I get bored or distracted easily. But this game is just wonderful, even with all the problems that came with the first version.

It's a master piece. And I enjoyed every single minute of it.

Beautifully crafted game design, progression and art. Music & SFX is also very good. Simple, but clean, aesthetic and enjoyable. Top tier. And free! Unbeatable.
Levels are well-designed, there are lots of different challenges and they're introduced to you with a simple tutorial, then stepping up the difficulty. Progression is pretty nice and it doesn't full unfair or unbalanced.
Works well with Xbox controller as well!
Art is great. It's a mix between pixel art and modern graphics, adding soft shadows and HD lighting. Small details like waving flags and torches adds to the atmosphere. There is no text in-game, which makes the experience pretty smooth and understandable, even without it.
Highly recommended if you're into puzzles and sokobans. Congrats to the devs! Expecting the OST release too. :)

Early Access Review
Definitely this is fulvo.

Jokes aside, this has a lot of potential. May early access never cease since there's still a lot of work to do, but the core gameplay is as fun as it gets!

Well, what can I say about my second favorite VR game (yes, my favorite it's still Half-Life Alyx). This is awesome game to literally spend hours and hours getting extremely tired, but never bored.

Beat Saber as it is isn't really fun. The fun part comes with the modding and custom maps. Most of them are incredible and really fun.

Playing it on a HTC Vive with very bulky wireless headphones has become some kind of mood to me. It's great. I highly recommend as your first VR experience and your most casual, fun game to spend 2 hours per day.

Twelve Minutes is one of those games that look and feel like a movie and they're great. In this case we got more than just a cool story, we got very interesting concepts and the very unique replaying system.
The great thing about replaying the game over and over is that it isn't that frustrating. The game allows you to try a lot of things, gives you the exact amount of time to think and the gameplay mechanics are on point.
The music is amazing and of course the voice acting with outstanding performances from world class actors and actresses. Definitely the best game I played this year!

This game, once again, shows what a good game company Valve is. Waited 13 years for this and was not disappointed. This is a piece of art, it made me bought a headset and experienced VR like no other game did. Just. Perfect. 10/10.

Another game that got me hooked from the beggining. How can a text-based game be so interesting? English is not my mother tongue, but the way I enjoyed the story-telling makes my brain confused and sometimes I remember texts in Spanish.

Lovely game, everything is on point. From sounds, ambience, music, story and graphics. I can't say much, just play it.

Highly recommended. One of my favorite text-based games I've ever played, alongside with Stories Untold.
