I like Vampire Survivors. I have tried and enjoyed many games in this genre, but I'm not sure about this one.

There is little variety to the enemies. Most of the animations are just two frames. Some of the sound effects seem to be placeholders, like the oddly sparse thudding as you open a chest. The techno soundtrack is nothing to write home about, and sounds incongruous in a game like this. The biggest flaw, though, is that there simply isn't enough happening to sustain one's interest during a full twenty minute run in the game.

The game has not been updated in nearly a year, and the full release is overdue according to the developer's own timeline, so I think we have to assume this is its final state.

Fun rhythm game. Music genre is Eurovision.

A relic from an era before games had their own benchmark tools, when software required a product key in order to function, and when nothing worked on Linux. On the other hand, they want to nickel-and-dime you for new benchmarks, so I suppose it is modern in that respect.

This game is 241% better than the first one, because that is how many more achievements it has, expressed as a percentage. Seriously though, this is best played in one session and never again, or better yet, not at all.

This game made me thankful there are only 26 letters in the alphabet.

Every survivors game has its own thing, and this one is a twin-stick variant, meaning you can move in one direction while shooting in another. This opens up tactical possibilities: for example, you can concentrate firepower on a boss while kiting it around. You can also do a short dash. All of this makes it feel more active than most of the popular games in the genre. You also have perks and equipment that can be upgraded and swapped out at will, so there is a little bit of strategic depth there too.

I was given this game by a friend who hasn't even played it, but I hope he will, because this is really good.

A really genial advent calendar of a game that reveals new types of gameplay practically every time you play. Collecting fish and optimising the restaurant are fun!

It's a game about pulling off heists in the hope of obtaining a large payday. The single-player mode has 2 types of gameplay: heists, and a GTA: San Andreas style turf war system. It ticks all the boxes for me, and I'm planning on playing it a lot.

It would not be a marine game without some salt, and there is plenty of it over this delisted DLC.

A legendary classic that is fun to play every few years.
