    My final opinion is that it could have used a lot more quality testing.

    Aritana and the Harpy’s Feather offers the right amount of challenge and enjoyment with many throwbacks to our favorite platformers, as well as its own brand of passable mechanics.

    As-is, it’s a fun diversion comparable to the many free internet game options that have been available for years. It’s not worth $10, but I’d recommend it if it ever dropped to $1 and you’re only looking to kill an afternoon.

    It’s available, it’s a lot of fun for your buck, and it is simply amazing.

    This is a solid port of a solid survival game. It doesn’t have the same crafting depth as other games like Terraria or Minecraft but it does a fine job by giving a survival experience like nothing else.

    As for the game itself: I had fun with it, and ignoring the odd marketing choices, I recommend trying it out to anybody who enjoys a solid yet simple platformer shooter.

    Crow manages to be good, is what I’m trying to say, but it’s not “hold-your-breath here it comes” good.

    As an educational tool it’s pretty solid and a great way to get kids to learn and practice their math homework, but as a game it’s just… not amazing.

    Even if you haven’t seen the movie or read the comics, this table should still be enough to entertain you.

    If you like crafting and exploring games, Crea is one you should definitely check out.

    It was a very short, yet replayable game. For people who miss the days of the old school point-and-click adventure and more text heavy games, this is definitely one worth checking out.

    In short, it’s a more interesting, more fully-fleshed out extension of Battleship.

    As a hidden object game, this will definitely appeal to casual gamers and puzzle enthusiasts, although the story and overall premise may turn off a hard-core audience.

    Overall, it’s a nice game to play a few times.

    I hate to bash a game, but I felt like I was wasting my gaming time. When I play a console game, I either want an intriguing story, complex gameplay mechanics, or engaging competition all of which High Society has none.

    As it stands, Jet Car Stunts is a slightly glitchy port of a mediocre game.

    It’s a nostalgic trip, one that’s backed by some genuinely solid design.

    For all the clever and ‘clever’ references, for all of the time spent on building just that perfect retro feel, they didn’t bother making anything original, or really, memorable.

    It was presumably aiming to raise questions, but thanks to its half-hearted presentation and sparse narrative, the only question it raises is, “How do I get out of Blue Valley?”

    But other than those minor grievances, I found the overall experience to be a fun, unique experience that lends itself to a variety of play styles, giving it a good amount of replay value. With a little more polish, it could become a cult classic.

    Postal 2: Paradise Lost isn’t a disaster, but it is a fairly hard game to recommend in the end. Unless you have a lot of affection for the original game and you have been eagerly awaiting more content, it is an expansion pack that you should probably skip.

    The writing doesn’t really save the fact that you spend most of this game just hitting the same buttons in order until victory. I guess sometimes that’s all you want, but if that’s the case, why not just play something like Cookie Clicker instead?

    This might not be the best edition, considering the text issue, but it is a great game that lets you be the jail bird you always wanted to be.

    All in all, I found it to be a rather fun game. Though that’s not to say it wasn’t rough around the edges in spots. With plenty of loot to grab, a nice variety of weapons, big bosses, scaling difficulties, and the ability to craft powerful gear, I’d definitely say it would be worth looking into for fans of the genre.

    I can only hope that any Greenlight votes it received were from trolls, and that no one is stupid enough to actually pay money for this abomination.

    While I absolutely loved the game, one questionable thing was the lore screen. For important as it is, instead of being another in game menu, the lore screen takes you to the Steam overlay, somewhat breaking the immersion.

    There’s so much visible heart and ingenuity in this product, but its fundamentally flawed mechanics and absurd, dismal story leave in my mind only the animation of a man hysterically bashing his own head in.

    Unfortunately, I would have to say if you haven’t already purchased the Dying Light Season Pass, The Bozak Horde isn’t really worth buying. It strips out all of the fun of the open-world exploration and pigeonholes you into a dingy parking garage, and leaves you struggling to compensate for its less-than-fantastic combat system.

    Every enticing prospect in its description – the promising subject matter, the skill accumulation, the sharp colours – exists to postpone the realization that the game is as fulfilling as stargazing on a cloudy night.

    Including additional equipment — like the Liebherr RL1300, for all you tall crane enthusiasts! — and several new DLC missions/jobs, the Gold Edition provides many hours of content for the patient player to invest some serious time in learning the systems.
