Waiting for inevitable Stardew Valley crossover!

Honestly, this game is just not fun. Things like purchasing land or huge skill tree may seem attractive at first, but you quickly realise that they slow your progression to a crawl compared to games like Terraria or Crashlands where the only limitation is your gear. Also, if you really want to check this game, do yourself a favour and download a fast crafting mod ASAP.

Another solid entry in the series, that beats both 1 and 2 when it comes to quality of life features (can't really compare it to other games as I haven't played them). The only disappointing thing is the story. Feels really stretched, the skits between are more boring than funny, the main cast is very one dimensional and villains are evil for the sake of being evil... so screw the story and embrace the grind!

A wonderful gem. While it shares some mechanics with its sister series, Disgaea, there is a lot uniqueness. If something is not attached to the ground, it can be used as a weapon - shrubs, trees, bombs, allies, enemies, etc. You can't just drop units from base panel, your main character needs to summon them first by confining them to items spread through the level. There is no grid, the ground is treacherously slippery and everything can be thrown of the level which can be used as an advantage, or can become a problem. The story is great and surprisingly more serious than the goofy presentation of the game would otherwise suggest.

Disgaea 2 generally improves on every gameplay aspect of its predecessor. The story is only slightly weaker, but lets be honest, we're here to grind, not to cry.

Fun detective noir visual novel. Although constantly jumping in and out of cabs between locations turned annoying fast.

GNOOOOOOOOOOOG!

A short, fun and simple puzzle game. Mouse controls are a little bit wonky, but besides that I have no other complaints.

Do not get discouraged, quality of life improvements help a lot with outdated aspects of the original. I am honestly surprised how System Shock holds up to this day. SHODAN is such a great villain. Combat, while clunky, becomes really fun when you get hang of it. Exploration feels rewarding. Sure, there is a lot of dead ends and traps, but the loot you will find outside off the beaten path is definitely worth it. Also, always slap those pesky cameras with your trusty pipe.

Do Not Feed the Monkeys is a fun but also a bit tedious game driven by the stories you are witnessing or, if you wish to, take part in. It offers a good amount of replayability with different cages every run, but other parts of the game become repetitive too quickly. Also it really could use a graph showing all available to explore outcomes.

This game does not respect my right to casually mash buttons and not using block... on second to easiest difficulty.
