A wonderful theme park builder. It harkens back to rollercoaster tycoon in spirit, which is wonderful blast to past for those whom used to play such games way back.
Wholly recommended for those whom have that little designer builder within.

This game, it scratches specific itch. If you know what I mean.

You do.

Fun roguelite that has some depth when you look into it deeper.

Now there are some iffy waters and minor kinks that need still to be hammered straight, when it comes to the gameplay aspect. Some bugs and other slimy nasties in midst the deepest parts that might hinder your experience. But overall, quite an enjoyable ride. Not one game for those prone to the bends, but for the foolhardy whom are not afraid to get their toes wet in the uncharted waters of indie games.

Simply amazing and unforgiving dungeon crawler (literally) with good dose of Lovecraft.

Fromsoft is known for making very specific and typical games. However, this time I think they went too far with the stripping of mechanics. The game has it's moments, but at times it's just not fun to play anymore. I've enjoyed all of their games from Demons' souls to Bloodborne. But this was a misstep. I'm not advocating for difficulty slider, nor easier game, far from it. A challenging game is one thing, but this was something else entirely. This was not fun. There are few moments in this game that require perhaps too much from the player, but one is above everything else. The last boss, in this game is just ridiculous in it's unforgiving difficulty. Grinding my way to learn it's movements and timing was simply too tedious to be enjoyable experience.

The most fun you can do with your pants still on.

Superhot is really unique and innovative game, that gives the player a freedom to perform amazing and nigh impossible feats. This is possible via the one of a kind game mechanic that the game states the best "Time moves only when you move".
Together with a striking visual style that makes the violence seem downright beautiful, one can't be not impressed with this game. The only downcomings of the title come from the game's short length and somewhat unrewarding ending.

This game is a fun Coop experience. That I wholeheartedly recommend to all two person coop lovers.
Without spoiling anything about the game, I recommend going in blind with a friend who does not know anything about the game either. It is great experience of asymmetrical gameplay in the vein of Portal 2 and the likes of puzzle solving.
A word of caution. The final puzzle may cause some grey hair as it's not immediately clear what the objective is.
But for the price of... nothing. This game is totally worth the some two hours it takes to complete.

A guilty pleasure of mine. I can't help and not love this game. Despite all of it's faults, this game captivates me with it's interesting world and characters.

If you haven't played this game before, I would wholeheartedly recommend this out. It may leave you scratching your head. And that is just fine. While not completely perfect, the ending is quite well thought out. At least most of the way.

The End Is Never The End Is Never The End Is Never The End Is Never The End

Stanley Parable is the quintessential antithesis for a modern videogame's narrative structure and tropes. It's ma-mazing. If you enjoy breaking the fourth wall, and traditions. You should already have played this game.

♥♥♥♥ this game. I've clocked at the moment of writing this some 32+ hours and I have not managed to beat the mothership once. At best I have gotten two out of three stages beaten by sheer dumb luck... On easy! Talk about a a steep learning curve!

If you are a masochist, and I know you are, I'll recommend FTL. Remember to give up.
