its a really fun game and in my opinion the Kingdom Rush series is the best of the tower defense games.

this is a good recreation of the tabletop game, honestly it's because I picked up the digital version that I then went and purchased a copy of the physical game. now having said that, yes compared to the physical there isn't as much content but the developer's have been listening and hopefully they can bring some of the expansions over. personally I'm really hoping for Sentinels of the 9th cause who doesn't want to play a game of baseball using a team full of superheros!!

its a good game with enough intresting things to keep you playing

this is a great game that I was lucky enough to pick up during the past summer sale. its a classic sidescroller adventure game with a very good story and a wide variety of various weapons and items. I look forward to possibly playing Ghost 2.0

this is the game that answered the one question that all the philosophers of the ages had been pondering since the begining of time: Can there be a video game entirely centered around the selection and wearing of many hats?

in case you didnt notice or see the warning shown in the game trailer or in the game discription, i'll put in here as well

THIS GAME IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN
OR THOSE WHO ARE EASILY DISTURBED.

ok with that out of the way, it is a good story and it kept me going forward to see how things would turn out. overall its good but know that the game isnt joking around with that warning.

War of the Human Tanks is an excellent rts game, with a great story line that kept me playing just so that I could uncover more of the history of the human tanks and the parts played by Shoutaro Daihon'ei and his forces. I would easily recomend this as well as the sequel War of the Human Tanks: Altier as a great game.

this is a very accurate recreation of the tabletop card game. as I've played the physical copy with friends its was easy to jump into the steam version. I also highly recomend getting the season pass as it adds numerous heros,villans and enviroments to the game extending the replay ability of the game.

currently the main problem I have with Sentinels and I do hope that they will fix in the future is with the multiplayer. while I have looked in and it tells me that there are several games on-going and that there are X players looking for a game I can wait a long time in the quick play or available game menu waiting for someone else to actually pop in. and sadly while this is on steam theres no natural ability to invite a friend in-game to just come and join you.

but that aside I do enjoy this game and look forward to the Season 2 expansion when it comes out with new villans to pummel and heros to play.

enjoyed playing the tabletop version of this so when I heard of the video game version decided to try the demo. I ran through it 3 seperate times once letting the demo guide me through the steps to play and twice facing Baron Blade on my own. its a faithful recreation of the cardgame, I will say that it would have helped things abit to make it eaiser to scroll through the cards in your hand, because as the game progresses the characters hands grow and grow beyond the 4-5 cards you initially see. overall a very good demo game.

The Ship is a decent interactive story, you find yourself trapped on a cruse ship and informed by the devious Mr. X that the only way to possibly save your life is to play his game and slay the other passengers onboard. this sets the direction for the rest of the game, simply learning the layout of the giant ship and scroungeing for weapons and neccesities to help you get off the boat. and the game does its best to create the look and feel of being on a large cruse ship with all the extras and exploration is part of the fun of the game.

now for some of the issues I had, now please note that i've only played through on easy so i dont know how or if the story changes based on difficulty. quickly after i found my target and took it out, the focus shifted away from Mr. X's game to doing oddjobs to buy passage off the boat. in fact though he says in his intro that he would be "checking in on us from time to time' hes never seen again outside of a large statue of himself onboard.

also I imagine as a way to help pace the gameplay so the player isnt just turning into a murder hobo on a boat the game has 2 features the first is a 'needs' system in the sims vein where you have to eat/sleep/restroom/ect. or suffer consequences for letting them go on without paying attention to them. i know this was to help with interaction but it didnt really work out too well.

the second is the onboard Security. stationed throughout the ship are guards and video cameras that cant be disabled ingame or in the case of teh living guards killed, because the moment you step infront of either while wielding a weapon of any kind your instantly jailed, stripped of all weapons, fined based on the amount and variety of weapons found on you and left to roam around an empty brig. once again this is to prevent the player from going on rampage but it just slows you down as you have to roam around to regain a useful supply of weapons to continue along the storyline.

overall its a good game and teh story was strong and intresting enough that I wanted to see it to the end.
