Decent little factory game but lacking in any agency. It's a very simple production chain builder, like Mindustry. What hurts it a lot for me though is the lack of any sort of threat or drive for you to perform better or make more effective factories. There's no biters or AI opponent competing against you or any existential threat to your run, it's just 'get the parts there sometime'. Sure this is satisfying enough for some people, but the game explicitly has to state in its tutorial that it *isn't* an idle game, it just isn't that fun for me.

One of the other big issues is the lack of continuity of its components. When you get a new objective to make a new part, sure, some of the previous parts can be used to incrementally upgrade your factory, but you generally have to tear everything out and make a completely new factory segment every time there's a new component. This combined with the clunky controls (playing this on a laptop is a bit of a hassle) made the game just annoying to deal with.

Can still recommend it on sale if you really like these sorts of simple factory games, it certainly has its own niche and audience, but I'm not one of them.

Very simple strafe-dodge game pretty similar to Run or Velocibox, the obstacles coming at you change as they approach, shrinking, growing or combining with other walls in an attempt to catch you off guard. Pretty decent, though it's certainly tough to get into it if you aren't already a bit experienced with twitch gameplay. Recommend it at full price if you like difficult and fast-paced movement games, it doesn't get much crisper than this.

Pretty good RTT which emphasizes positioning and contrasting unit choices in doctrinal combat. Compared to the Men of War and Company of Heroes titles, it carves its own niche through quick, lethal combat and very short times to kill. It's great to see airstrikes finally implemented in multiplayer combat in a somewhat fair system, even if they're extremely limited at the moment.

The DLC model is decent with the release of a full campaign and faction with each expansion, and I'm personally excited for the British forces, even if they're quite a ways out. I assume the game will maintain its relevance well into the end of the decade and I'm interested to see where it goes from here. Get it on a sale, the DLC aren't essential for a fun time but they're pretty worth it if you're a fan of the game.

A cutesy game with a casual cult-management side as well as a dungeon rouge-like combat side.

The management portion of the game is pretty lightweight, you have to keep morale and food to acceptable levels while progressing through the building tree and completing objectives to appease your cult members. You unlock augments for your cult doctrine over time, though they don't impact the gameplay too severely. The cult members are fairly autonomous day to day, which is useful since the game's time continuously ticks away, no matter the activity.

The cult system is fine, but it's pretty shallow. Not a bad thing persay, just doesn't allow for much replayability. Then there's the combat sections in the dungeons which are pretty fun, if punishing. You roll a random weapon and ability for every floor of a dungeon, and you gain cards throughout a dungeon giving you minor bonuses until you eventually die or live to kill the boss at the end of the floor, unlocking the next floor. It's a satisfying enough system, if a bit repetitive.

Recommend the game if you're a fan of the aesthetic and casual management games, look for a decent sale.

A cool little physics game, finally got around to playing it after it being in my library for ages and I think it's certainly worth the $3. Sure, it might have non-deterministic physics but it has no 'one and done' solution to a level. There's usually an intended solution that doesn't require any timing, but with a bit of practice you can usually finish a level quite a bit under par.

Did I hear detective work? I love detecting! Got a solid PI resume.

Maretime Bay Adventure is a cute little game making the debut of MLP on Steam. There's not too much to say about it that you can't see in the trailers and screenshots, it's a very simple platformer with some action sequences, fitting for the developer's history of kid games. It's incredibly overpriced for at best a couple hours of content, but it goes on sale from time to time, and I'd recommend getting it if you're a fan of the franchise for the steam items if nothing else.

I miss it.

Murder on the Hedgehog Express

Can't romance Blaze without being called a war criminal.

It's a shame the amount of my friends who have salved themselves to this game, dedicating hundreds if not thousands of hours to this hell.

They've spent hundreds of dollars on premium vehicles, wholly admitting that they don't have the time nor the patience to grind to the high-tier vehicles.

This game might have one of the worst $/hour ratios I've seen, which is honestly outrageous for a free to play game. The fact that people will butcher this game in steam reviews and then mark it as positive reminds me why this game is still alive.

If you must play this, read the reviews and testimonials of the players of this game, lest you fall into the pit of money-whaling and life degrading madness of this game.

Hacknet is an AMAZING game that managed to keep me involved in the story and scared ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ at the same time. This is one of the few games I have played that I can say I enjoyed from start to finish. And, granted, I don't play many story games like this, but this has to have one of the most powerful endings I've seen of a game.
