The game is fun for a while. The mechanics are very simple and with very little to no customisation. Most of the good stuff is behind paid DLCs.
I do not recommend this as a game, it's feels like a classic Paradox move to monetise as much content as possible.
I do recommend this as a moddable sandbox engine for city building. The amount of micro/macro-management the game lets you mod is outstanding. If you enjoy a deep modding experience, this game will let you tinker with pretty much everything you might think of. You'll need some DLCs for it tho.
TLDR: Great Sandbox game as long as you mod it

Beautiful idle experience, definitely a great game if you want to have an interactive wallpaper on your 2nd monitor. (Rob please add borderless window option ❤)
Great customization and wonderful conceptualization of all the collection vibes the game offers.
Frog pots are the best.

Mini Metro delivers a wonderful experience of problem solving.
While it feels like a mobile game, M.M. is a must play for anyone who loves puzzles.
It got quite a lot of maps that feature new mechanics and tweaks that keep the gameplay fresh, challenging and fun.
If it's on discount, definitely grab it.

Beautiful game. So much content for such a low price.
It isn't challenging, but it's quite fun and great to pass time.

Overall a great experience and very pleasant to play.

Still good.

It's fun

STOP READING REVIEWS. PLAY THIS GAME. DO IT. THIS IS A GAME BETTER PLAYED GOING IN BLIND.

but if you insist...


Subnautica is a masterfully crafted narrative. The main story is completely up to you to discover, it won't force you to play it but it won't hide from you, this, on top of the rich and rewarding exploration the game has to offer, Subnautica gives the player a completely new approach to the Survival genre.

Probably the best aspect of an exploration game is the world, U.W.E. decided to ditch the trend of procedural generated worlds to hand craft a beautiful and misterious world beneath the waves. The biomes are all so detailed, the flora and fauna are so interesting you just want to dive and more about how everything works in this planet. No other game has achieved what Subnautica did with it's amazing world design, you can tell by each biome you explore how much love and care the developers put into the creation of the sea and its misteries.

The progression in this game is so satisfying it makes you wonder why other crafting games can't just get it right. Everything you craft, everything you discover has a purpose, and you'll feel that everything that you make has a meaning, a purpose and a utility.
Grinding is something that no crafting game can escape from, but Subnautica decides to ditch it until a very late state of the game and even then, you'll actually feel the need and rush to grind for your next objective, without it feeling obnoxious and boring.

The game isn't perfect, some may feel it is (storyline-wise) short and it falls under some Unity shenanigans, but at the end of the day, it is a pretty solid contestant for GOTY. And a must play for anyone who enjoys either exploration or narrative rich games. This is now my favourite game of all time and I can't recommend it enough.

You don't need any Wiki, any guide, no other tip but one:

Go Deeper.

Emily is Away Too is a direct upgrade graphically and mechanically from it's first title of the series.
The concept is still the same. a text adventure choices-matters narrative set up on the ol' chat services from the 00's
The game now takes most of your answers in consideration. Unlocking special dialogs and paths.
While this is great, the only 3 available options could be translated onto " Strongly Agree, Doubt, Disagree". Wich may end up feeling as if the main character (you) didn't had any bias towards any outcome. Wich is great, but most of the time you'll be only responding to actual events, unlike EIA 1. You'll eventually feel the game extremely linear despite the choices you could take. The addition of downloads and the time attacks is extremely appreciated.

The story is... okay at best. No tension, textbook drama and overall the game highlights the best outcome due to it's poor writing. While it encourages players to replay and choose different outcomes, it really lacks the motivation to do so. Emily is now extremely bland, even in the best case scenario you won't feel any kind of attachments. Main Character is now way more confident on it's answers, at first it struggles to express himself but he can end up being a prick to both girls wich just creates a narrative dissonance breaking all inmersion.

Why do I still recommend this game? Because it's absolutely beautiful, and absolutely worth the price. It will also provide you with nice backgrounds, icons and nostalgic trips to your favourite websites.

if you did not like EIA or if you never used a chat service back in the days, you won't like EIA2.

Nice references, tho.

ATS is not a game.
ATS is not fun.
it's an entertaining experience.

There's nothing more than driving from point A to point B.
And somehow it's one of the best experiences you could have. Wether if you play your jams along the road or just sit there and drive for an hour and a half with nothing but the engine sound, ATS will let you enjoy a great time with yourself.
I've found a great peace in ATS, i'm sure you will too.

(Definitely buy it if you enjoy ETS2)

♥♥♥♥ this game.
