Fantasy Kingdom Simulator
Nope. Nope nope nope!
Me: Man these reviews are so harsh! There’s no way it’s as bad as the reviews! It’s got medieval econ/sim with 4x builder themes! That’s GREAT! WHAT POTENTIAL!
2 minutes after playing: Wow this is terrible! Not even good terrible! The UI is locked on huge, the only reason it calls itself casual is to make up for being so easy your cat could play it by randomly keysmashing, and the reviews are actually TOO KIND!
1 hour later: omg I still haven’t even unlocked the cards, of course not, what is the point? I’m not even playing anymore, why did I think this would get better, if it didn’t in the first five minutes, and actually somehow managed to slide downhill from there?!

This is a simple turn based/clicker game where you control a kingdom with 4 cities in it and defend them against random events. Choose where to spend your income each turn on soldiers, buildings, crops, that sort of thing. Basically if you had Medieval Total War, removed all the combat, armies, the map, and just had 4 towns that you micromanaged a little, that would be it. This is basically one of the menus from a different, complete game.
The game doesn’t launch, it just goes into a loop on the first time setup and hangs there. Because the game cannot be played (and probably wouldn’t be worth playing even if you could), I don’t recommend it.

Kid-friendly-Silent-Hill OST.
-
The tutorials give some good hands-on practice with the game’s concepts and show different ways to utilize them.
-
4 daily puzzles that are different difficulties.
-
Infinity mode.

Not too many gimmicks: hidden numbers, larger boards, more numbers.

Olden: Card Game
Olden: Card Game is designed in such a way that every battle will give a different and unique experience. A mix of overpowered and weak cards in your hand and deck will constantly test you and your opponent ability to adapt and make the best out of the current situation. In order to give players a form of individuality and theory crafting outside the match, the game offers unique talent systems per every avatar that will help the player with various perks.
In this battle of entities there is no deck building and no card collecting, so all you need to do in order to enter the match is to choose your avatar and hit the play button.
For now, there is: Entity of Light, Death, Chaos and Life.
Your entity will give your troops a unique bonus during the whole length of the game.
Basic rules
To win the game, the player needs to harvest 300 value points. Your entity receives value points whenever you sacrifice your own cards.
Once your turn begins, you receive 2 tokens: an action token and a draw token. Your options are to:
- Play a card and build your board presence
or
- Engage in combat by attacking one of your opponents’ cards
or
- sacrifice your own card, so you can harvest its current value.
Doing any one of these three things will consume your action token.
To consume your draw token, simply click on the main deck to draw a card, and that’s it.
For now, there are 3 card abilities, effect, passive and combat.
Effect is something that will happen only once, at the moment a card is played by the player. A card’s effect does not trigger in cases where you summon or resurrect it with other cards. Effects take place only if they are played directly from your hand.
A card’s passive ability will be present so long as the chosen card is on the board. Once the card with the passive ability is removed from the board, its passive ability will go away along with it.
Combat ability is something that will only trigger once that card engages in combat with an enemy card.
As mentioned, you can use your turn to perform an attack action and engage in combat. To perform an attack, simply place your card on the top of the opponent card. After one turn, your card value number will sink its value into the opposing card. If your card has enough value to destroy your opponent’s card, it will do so, and then it will return to your side of the board.
If your card does not have enough value to destroy an opponent’s card, it will do its damage after one turn, and then be destroyed.
You can engage in combat with cards that are already on the board, or with the cards from your hand.
One card can be attacked by multiple cards at the same time.
To win the game, a player needs to harvest 300 value points. Players can harvest value points by sacrificing their own cards that are not currently in combat. To perform a card sacrifice, select your card, and then click on its respective altar. Performing a card sacrifice will consume your action token.

Death Drives A Bus
Very charming game! I knew from the get-go I’d like this game.
So death' side job as a bus driver comes in handy when his horse falls ill. So drive around, pick the dead up and drop them off to heaven or heck.
The puzzles become, in my opinion, quickly challenging, but not frustrating. It helps a lot with the simple interface and quick rest.
Also, the i.d.’s of the dead people, doesn’t do anything but it’s such a great detail to add in.
At the moment of writing (sept22,20),
the achievements on Linux (mint) do not work, but an in-game save keeps track of your progress.

It is quite fitting that the road to hell heck is littered with traffic jams. Death Drives A Bus is a great little package. Most stages seem to have multiple possible solutions but that doesn’t stop them from being quite perplexing from time to time. If you’re a fan of puzzle games you really can’t go wrong with this title for the price it’s being offered at.

Life’s Playground
It’s pretty bad
– Real player with 3.4 hrs in game
Overview
Life’s Playground is an indie board game that draws inspiration from Monopoly, Pay Day, and LIFE, and puts their characteristics into one single randomly-generated board game which appears to go only in a single direction, but once the player passes the sunset square at the end, they magically appear at the sunrise square at the very beginning. Games allow for two to four players, and can be set to have a time limit of twenty-four, thirty-six, or sixty laps (“months” as the game calls laps) or “survival” which has no time limit and ends when only one player remains. Players have jobs which earns them money upon completing a lap around the board, and properties can be purchased which can be upgraded on a player’s very next turn. (The player may purchase all three upgrades for a property at the same time if they so wish, and upgrade multiple properties at their discression.) Apart from money, the game also features Fortune Points which can gained and lost through chance and used to either count towards a player’s final score or used to cover costs if the player does not have enough cash to otherwise make a payment.

Breath
Breath is not an easy game, but it is not a long game too.
Start as a simple life-form and evolve your way by defeating the bosses in any order you wish. One ability gained from one boss can help you to defeat another one.
Can you beat the game without deaths? How fast can you beat it? Try yourself in “1 Life Mode” and “SpeedRun Mode”! Compete against your own time or set a custom time to try to be the fastest in the world!
Play multiple times trying different routes and, as you play, unlock new abilities to start the game with, adding layers of complexity.
Don’t forget to try to find all the hidden spider webs.
If you ever feel lost on how to play, pause the game (esc or start) and a button map will show up.
Life is but a Breath!
CompactO - Idle Game
I could have gotten this for free but decided to buy it instead. There was more content in the alpha version but it was removed due to it being pretty broken. There is more content currently in development that will extend the life of the game and help to better balance the later game. The dev has made some other games that I enjoy playing and look forward to where this one goes.
Edit: A lot more content has been added.

This game is short and sweet for an idle game. Definitely not worth $2.99. On top of that, once you beat the game it allows you to keep playing in order to earn more money, but I have now gotten to the point where I can’t even open the game because my numbers are too big for the game to handle. The prestige system in this game is fairly boring and the second layer of prestiging is lame because you quickly get to the point where it is working as fast as possible and all you can do is wait. It was overall a fun game but not worth any money.

So I found this game by a pure accident a couple hours before getting published and rushed to buy it, hoping to find a game that’s complex, detailed, realistic and most importantly, let’s me cope with the zombie apocalypse going currently in the world and the quarantine shitshow.
The game turned out to be exactly what I expected and far more, the amount of data available is truly astonishing and immersive, all the actions you can take, quarantine, public order maintenance, research, border closing, decisions you have to make during various random events that can appear, all this makes for an excellent simulation, and the fact that I’ve received a product that already looks very polished despite probably being made rather quickly is mindblowing. I really hope it’ll be updated accordingly as the situation develops and more knowledge about the virus will be gained.

Review:
I’m only recommending this game, because I think there is a group of people that will enjoy this game. I did not enjoy this game there’s ZERO percent chance you can outplay everything you’re forced to take mandatory hits and depending on the AI’s erratic behavior if you do try to actually out maneuver your co workers because they’re camping a spot you’re going to run out of time. I’m such a nice guy though I’ll explain some things that aren’t explained in the control scheme it gives you so you don’t have to get gaped trying to figure it out there’s some neat intricacies. For CONFIG you need absolutely nothing swaps you need one computer you can only carry one. 5 discs= 1 life so this is where the game is playable and gives you a chance to win this is a life management/calculated hit type game. This is not a stealth game it’s not a skill game, it’s a strategy game and requires a pretty good amount of RNG. The enemies CAN HIT YOU MULTIPLE TIMES there’s no I frames if there’s 5 enemies sitting in a cramped hallway BETTER believe you’re taking 5 damage. There’s not enough space to outplay shit a lot of the time. I like games where If i play it well enough I can win and not take damage this game you can understand what to do do it and get gaped by the AI the AI I’m not sure if it’s smart or the fact it easily gets trapped in small areas, but they camp it and with your hit box in a 2 square room you’re not dodging. So it’s a NO for me, but if you want a really hard strategy risk management game this is for you. I also love the concept of being an IT worker being frustrated by dum dums.

CryptoClickers: Crypto Idle Game
Very good idle game. Has little, in any kind of game-functional sense, to do with crypto currencies aside from using currency names.
Has multiple layers of depth, a number of interlinked levels that need to be opened up, all with good help/explanation and some even come with tips. Every layer of the game can be automated except for the “daily events”, but that’s ok because they are short duration (5 to 10 minutes), they aren’t mandatory but they do give an extra bonus that adds up over time, and the events change each day. The different sections of the game can automatically grind away and progress while you are in another area of the game working on that.

I have been playing the game everyday since I got it and I’m extremely rejoiced as the game has released on steam. It’s a free, fun to play game with a lovely community that will eat up your spare time with its seemingly endless progression and cool features. The game includes a simple yet elegant art style which is soft on the eye with smooth corners and amazing contrast as well as easy to understand mechanics that anyone can understand. The game includes a easy to follow tutorial which teaches you the basics of the game and is constantly being updated to fix any bugs and to change or create new and ever growing content. Furthermore, the creator (CryptoGrounds) is easy to contact if you need any help and is friendly when solving any problems with the game that you might have.
