No Time to Relax
This game is honestly a ton of fun. Imagine “The Game of Life” but way more realistic and stressful, but still somehow fun? Yeah, that’s this game. If you enjoy time management skills, or have none, this game will be super enjoyable. Each turn is a week of your life, and each game-mode lasts a specific amount of weeks. (Excluding ‘Marathon’ which goes until the first person maxes out all four stats).
The game can be played solo, solo vs cpu, or online with up to three friends.
The art style is super neat, and the game runs very smoothly. It’s extremely optimized, as my little laptop runs it better than it runs Windows 10.

As a huge fan of Jones in the Fastlane (which I still play regularly) I have had my doubts about this game. But when it came on sale, I though: well… let’s try it!
It is not the same game as JitF, although it is clearly 100% inspired by it and lots of the mechanics are the same. But the game itself is very different and in my opinion, harder. Jones got away with a lot of poorly worked out game mechanics which are no longer acceptable today. This developer clearly worked harder to do it better. On the other hand, Jones was based on that ludicrous system that made it special and I miss that a bit in this game.

Abracadabrew
This game is really fun with friends. It’s similar to other games of this genre, but with the added thing that you have to memorize where the ingredients are, so more confusion and more chaos! And there’s a good challenge to get all 3 stars. I wasn’t sure at first, but after few hours played, it’s really good.

Abracadabrew is a very fun little game !
The point is very simple : you have to find ingredients to brew a series of potions in a very messy room. Quite simple in its core, but, as the amount of potions, ingredients and rules increase, you and your friends must find a strategy to be as efficient as possible.
For me, Abracadabrew is much more a game about communication than memory. Finding a way to communicate efficiently with your partner goes a long way into completing the last levels.
As you understand, I think it’s a game better experienced with friends or SO.

Black & White Bushido
This is a game about speed, stealth, and lighting. The lighting seems to change at random times.
You play on either the light team or the dark team. If you stand still while in your element (a light team member in the light, a dark team member in the shadow) you disappear from sight, and can hold a button to stay hidden and move slowly. But if you dash (your typical movement speed), your outline becomes a bit easier to see. I’ve found it’s easier to distinguish a moving dark team member in shadow than it was to detect a moving light team member in light, which unbalances it a bit, but it’s not too bad, and I’m sure its something the devs can easily fix.
– Real player with 2.6 hrs in game
Short version:
Worth buying at 75% off, if you have friends to play it with. Not worth full price. Don’t expect to find people to play with online.
Long:
Black & White Bushido is a game heavily based on stealth. You can play either Light (white ninjas) or Shadow (black ninja). There are four character models, though (ironically for a game so heavily based on the popular idea of ninjas), none of them are in stereotypical ninja garb. You then choose to play online or offline.
Offline, you can play either against bots or (presumably, since I’ve never tried it) couch two player. The stage is small, so there’s no need for split screen. Online, you can try to find a match, but the matchmaking is extremely barebones. I play with my fiancee, and the only way we can find each other’s matches is by coordinating over the phone. There is no indication of who else is playing, even once you’re in the match. You don’t see screen names, just “Player 1.” Also, as many other reviews have noted, there is virtually no community for this game. If you want to play against a human, bring a friend.

Flock of Dogs
Flock of Dogs is a top-down, twin-stick, crew game. Most of the time, one player pilots the whale and everyone else rides flying dogs to battle and quest. Players can land on the whale and relaunch when ready. The journey leads to the Flying Festival through procedurally-generated, floating biomes with a mix of creatures, characters, and quests.
Together with your brother and sister Dogriders, mount up on flying dogs. Name them. Teach them tricks. Then put on a fancy hat, grab your umbrella, and soar through the air. Make sure to tend to your flock as dogs can get hungry, thirsty, sick, and injured.
A friendly skywhale acts kinda like your living airship. It will provide plenty of inventory space in its big belly and nests for your flying dogs. You can also strap different gear onto the whale, such as the water hose, vacuum turret, or just extra shelves.

Every copy of Flock of Dogs comes with one Friend Slot. It’s not exactly 2-for-1, but in some ways, it’s better. A Friend Slot allows you to invite one friend who doesn’t own the game to join you online. This utilizes the native network code. You can invite any friend, and each time, it can be a different friend. Additional Friend Slots will be available for purchase.
Flock of Dogs is inspired by storybooks, cartoons, and suburban parks. It features hand-drawn characters and painted environments. It is filled with color and quirkiness and danger. Brave adventures can seek out dark caves filled with monsters, while those wanting a leisurely float to the Flying Festival are also accomodated. Wherever, however, and with whomever you play Fock of Dogs, It’s a magical flight.
GUN AND BUCKLER
Shoot and deflect bullets as a frog equipped with a gun, a buckler and a sticky tongue.
GUN & BUCKLER is a lucrative blood-sport set some time in the future – a branch growing off the long tradition of frog breeding, introducing a new generation of frogs that understand how to use weapons.
The game puts you into the action of being pitted against your genetic peers and their freaky deviations, at the amusement of national TV, at the profit of the breeders and at the detriment of countless clones of frogs and toads.
Your job is to make sure you never get hit by a bullet. Don’t get hit. You will die, don’t do it.

Pummel Party
you need friends to play this game and in turn you lose them cause everyone gets toxic, 10/10 would buy it again
– Real player with 97.8 hrs in game
I actually hate this game. My friends force me to play it. I have the most unbelievably bad luck and I’m never able to win any goblets. They bully me and verbally abuse me non-stop and it’s a horrible experience. I’ve been told I should be researched because of how bad my luck is. They force me to play 25 turn games and my mental health takes an extremely large blow every time we play. When it’s all over they say “same time tomorrow?” and I lay in bed and cry myself to sleep. This game has taken over my Discord and has made me no longer want to log on to my PC to play games. Will be going dark until this game is taken off of the Steam market. 10/10 would not recommend, lost all of my friends and sold my gaming PC.
