NeoBalls
You get what you paid for, 2K achievements at minimum price. If you’re an achievement hunter looking to increase the number of achievements on your profile showcase, then I highly recommend buying this. Else don’t waste your money. This is not a game, it’s just a way of distributing achievements.

Still haven’t encountered Neo from the Matrix nor did I have to do anything with balls. Just got achievements for being myself and not doing drugs.

Europa Universalis III Complete
Whee. Europa 3, like its predecessors and its cousins Hearts of Iron and Victoria (Crusader Kings as well, but that isn’t as hard to learn), is an extremely complex game that is notoriously difficult to learn, not helped by crappy tutorials. I had an edge having been playing this series since its first installment, but it still took some time to get used to everything. So right from the start expect a significant time investment on learning how to play the game, and learning to do well at it. War, Diplomacy, Trade, Exploration, and more. It’s all here.

As far as I’m concerned, this is the best game ever - especially in this version with the first two additions to the game.
To a certain extent, it is comparable to the Total War games, if they only included the map mode, which would here be simplified to armies only being able to move from province to province and not within a province. However, you have a more complicated diplomacy and domestic policy to deal with.
Another thing that makes it different, and, for my taste, better than the Total War games, is the greater realism and historical accuracy - in this game you can’t just conquer everything, and it remains challenging for the more than four centuries that its timespan covers.

Creeper World 3: Arc Eternal
Creeper World is technically a tower defence game, but unlike any other you’ve played before.
In a normal tower defence game (and even abnormal awesome ones like Defender’s Quest ) you’ll have enemies coming towards a point or object you’re defending and you’re tasked with fending them off by placing towers either along a pre-defined path or by creating that path using walls or the towers themselves (this is known as ‘mazing’).

Got this as part of a bundle. I can’t seem to even launch this game properly. Tried various suggested things (as found in the Steam Discussions for this game) to fix this but nothing did the trick so far.
Subsequently I can’t really say anything about the actual gameplay, neither good nor bad. At 2k+ achievements I reckon the main target audience isn’t there for compelling gameplay in the first place though.

NeoSticks
A small game, but so many problems.
The first thing about the game is, as do all neo games, that it looks nice. This would be a pro if it weren’t for the fact that everything what you see, from the background to small changes in the shape of the circling sticks, suggests that it is a 3D game. While in fact, it’s 2D which is as annoying as it is dissapointing. (in the start it’s confusing because you expect objects to overlap before you get hit)
Next problem with the game is that there are different difficulties, as they promise in the trailer, but there are only the 2 speeds you see in the trailer, so you will always play too easy or too hard.

I finally played a Neo game and didn’t even look for him.
This game made me hate myself about 3% more than usual, for how much I liked it.
Not sure I’ll ever play it again, but I venture to guess that playing this game for more than the achievements will unlock portals….

Aquarium Simulator
To call this an “aquarium simulator” is a gross overstatement. If anything, a screensaver simulator, perhaps?
There is little (alright, close to nothing) to actually do and whatever you do has no effect at all. If you don’t “feed” your “fish” (which resemble more a poor cartoon approximation, even in cartoonish style), nothing happens. If you pack 500 fish in the tank, same as if there were 2, except you get more eggs, which you then have to click one by one to harvest (I’ve garnered around 400 in one sitting after two hours with the game closed), which gives you more money… with which you can buy, well nothing much really. Just more of the same fish approximation.

This game, this damn game. It broke me. I never ever thought I would find the perfect game, but here it is, I have found the diamond in the rough. For such an amazing, powerful, impactful, experience, it’s too cheap. In my opinion, this piece of art is way too cheap.
If I had known that Aquarium Simulator would have been this amazing, I would have demanded they raise the price for me.
My life has peaked, I have experienced many amazing things, nothing as powerful and divine as this creation.
I have no complaints, I have no problems, After such an experience, my life is complete. Thank you BJgamesIND, thank you for creating such a master piece, thank you for the graphics, thank you for the time. thank you.

Uplink
Out of a lot of the hacking games I’ve played in my time, this has to have it’s seat right next to Hacknet, as one of my ‘Two best hacking games I’ve played’.
To some extent, it is pretty much an RPG, just for hacking.
You take up a contract - Or a ‘Quest’ - You do what the contract says - Destroy a mainframe, or change a social security record, et cetera - and then you get paid with a handful of credits - Or “Gold” - which you then use to upgrade your system, be it a Gateway upgrade, a new processor, or applications that will further unlock your hacking capabilities. - Or in terms of the RPG comparison here; You level up your character, you get new weapons, and unlock new skills.

This is really everything I wanted from an indie hacking game. It is a vast and glorious sandbox brimming with opportunity. To tell its tale, let me start the story about twenty-five years ago, with a little gem from Interplay called “Neuromancer.”
Neuromancer was an amazing piece of work, for its time. A point and click adventure game, yes, but with a vast collection of BBS-like “sites” in “cyberspace,” which could be accessed and navigated spatially, a sea of semitransparent polygons on a sprawling grid. They called the book “prophetic” in its vision of what a global computer network might be like, but the game was similarly visionary, in that it offered a classic milestone-and-unlocked-door-driven main story, but with a vast and layered world of enriching side stories and tiny details easily overlooked, that add depth and character to the world in which your character lives. This was a level of detail and nuance and supporting gameworld-enrichment that Bioware would go on to become famous for, in its epic D&D games of the Nineties, and in its later adventure games, but in the Eighties, on computers that were much more limited in resources, this was a bigger feat, and a bigger surprise to the player. You could just play Neuromancer to win it, or you could play it to learn about it, follow the exchanges on the PAX and on private sites, the private message exchanges between AIs. You could learn so much more that way, if you were clever and patient enough to retain it, to piece it together, and to make sense of it all.

DEFCON
One of those games that is both well programmed and well made to make nuclear war just another giddy joyride.
The game focuses on a world during the late 70’s and early 80’s, where nuclear war is taking place, and up to 6 nations can declare into it, the nations include The European union (and several other nations not currently in the EU) The USSR, (A and some parts of Kazakhstan) Asia (Not Ocenia, Australia, or Mongolia) Lain America (Not including Cuba) Africa, and North America including Canada and the United States.

This was my first game bought online on steam… years ago. It’s an an-and-off relationship, and recently I got back into it a little, and the old fever caught on again!
Pro:
-
not much required in terms of specs (although it can blow the fan a lot in certain situations)
-
UI has a great visual design
-
soundtrack is fitting
-
game mechanics depend on other players to work out one way or another: good online games are common
-
interesting game modes, for example: diplomacy. Everyone sees everything at the beginning, being in one team. Who defects first? Lots of maneuvering and chit-chatting among parties and backstabbing! Oh the backstabbing! Boy did we have fun with that!
