Review: Small saga
TL;DR: This game has a juicy concept that is marred by easy gameplay. I'm not even gonna harp on the writing, it is very well done! If only the stakes that the story sets were felt in how it plays out.

Review: Hylics.
TL;DR: This is a beloved game in its own fandom, I will give it praise for doing everything it sets out to do, and admonish myself for expecting a narrative and being disappointed. This is not a game for those looking for tangible substance.

TL;DR: Labyrinth of the demon king has a strong start with a lacklustre ending. The gameplay is fun and challenging, but the AI sometimes breaks the immersion. The story and visuals are engaging, but most of the NPCs just become vendors.

Review: FNAF Into the pit.
TL;DR: A game that is short enough to remain fun, and fun enough for me not to mind it being short! The difficulty scales well, in all ways that it can, and the story and art is enjoyable.

Review: Salt and Sacrifice!
TL;DR: A successor to salt and sanctuary that is most enjoyable with friends! By yourself you can still have fun, but the segmented exploration makes the world feel less 'adventurous' and it is easy to become overpowered.

Review: The Dishwasher, Vampire Smile.
TL;DR: This game is a fun and difficult beat'em'up, with a huge helping of blood and violence. The style is unique, the gameplay doesn't get boring, and the story is crazy enough to remain entertaining.

Review: Everhood 2
TL;DR: A trippy game with an intentional lack of narrative satisfaction (for some interpreters.) It is easier than the first game but just psychedelic and impressive, with an equally killer soundtrack and satisfying gameplay to boot.

#Review: #ZeroRanger
TL;DR: This is a shoot'em up with intuitive gameplay, pixel graphics that have delightful attention to detail, and a complex yet fun to understand story that underpins everything else. It's made by the same people who made VoidStanger, so you know it's good.

Review: Felvidek
TL;DR: This game is the closest I have ever came to playing a renaissance comedy. The manners of speech are perfect, the jokes are great, the visuals are memorable, and the gameplay works just fine.

Review: Kirby triple deluxe!
TL;DR: This game has near everything a kirby fan could want, and is as good an entry point into the series as any other main title in the franchise! It is stocked full of minigames and cozy moments, with some very good fights to boot!

Review: Vib-ribbon.
TL;DR: A delightful but short game that most people cannot 'legally' play! ;) It has Creative and challenging rhythm based gameplay, with the option to have it generate tracks for you based on the music you feed into it!

Review: New Super Mario Bros 2
TL;DR: This game could have been really fun if it set a realistic target of completion, unfortunately it did not. Hence, the game is just ok. Certainly the weakest of all the mainstream Mario games I have played.

Review: Kirby and the forgotten lands.
TL;DR: A 3D adventure with little challenge but plenty of fun and good vibes. It's a relaxing experience with a magical sound track and a wonderfully enjoyable world. Though it's easy, it's still engaging.
