An absolute gem! It is like combining the sims with a cute city management. It is addicting to build your school and mess with all the small details!

Great game! Kill bots and insects. Now that the server woes are over I am giving this a thumbs up.

P-Paul's Review:

Overall: I was a little disappointed actually. I liked Automata a lot more. In order to fully experience the game you have to replay the game multiple times and gather certain items. I wouldn't mind if there was not so much backtracking. After beating the game for the first time I started on new game+ and it gives a lot of extra cool info but I just couldn't get into redoing everything I just did. I ended up watching the other special info on Youtube. I would definitely say its worth finishing out if you are already invested. There are some really interesting moments but some parts fall flat. I would only recommend this game if you are looking for a game that has lots of Japanese elements with tragedy 7/10.

Gameplay: Was the game hard at the end? Hmm not really, I found a certain strategy and never stopped using it since nothing ever topped it. There are no "Combos", you can do the same thing at the beginning of the game and at the end. The enemies are not super intelligent and it becomes more of a "how fast can I kill this thing?" rather than "how do I kill this thing?"6.5/10.

Music: The music is freaking amazing, Easy 10/10.

Story: I had a hard time grappling with the story at the end. It felt like the good ole switcheroo 7/10.

Time played: ~15 hours. Beat the game + 2 hours on New Game+.

P.S: Why the heck is Kaine wearing those clothes?

I would rate this #1 game of 2020. Beautiful art direction, precise gameplay, fantastic replayability, engaging story, and a rocking soundtrack. Hands down the best roguelike that I have ever played. Dashing around and killing monsters throughout Hades is a blast.

This game is a real gem. A PC port that is actually good! The story is bit wacky and I still don't entirely understand what happened after beating it. But the gameplay... the gameplay is soooo good. This is a Metal Gear Solid game which indicates that its a stealth game. You don't have to play it stealthy if you don't like that. The game gives you all the tools to play it either way, both are extremely fun! The game is so intricately detailed and there is so much to experience. Sneak, snipe, sabotage, silence and good ole Snake. Its all there and its a wild ride. Have fun and don't take it super seriously and you will have a great time.

9/10 for the type of game this is supposed to be. Absolutely fantastic survival exploration game. Exploring the depths was as scary as games like "Escape from Tarkov" but chilling in the shallows was as peaceful as Stardew Valley. Very rewarding experience 100% recommend.

This game is an absolute masterpiece! The most rewarding gameplay out of the 100's of games that I have played and beaten. Not for the faint of heart. Stick with it and overcoming an obstacle becomes so rewarding.

Tricking your friends has never been so fun! Definitely need to have a group of friends in voice to enjoy this game.

An excellent revive of an old classic! This game will provide hours of entertainment while challenging you to always be a better player. Never been a better time to be an Age player :)

The game can be bit slow to start but it is super rewarding. Tactics and teamwork are vital. Great game overall very active developers. The pace of the game is somewhere between ARMA 3 and Battlefield. If you like that kinda pace then this game is for you
