Puerto Viejo is a game set during the Spanish golden age in which you, playing as Miguel, are on a mission to find your father after he hasn’t returned from Sea. However, such a journey is expensive and you only have 2 days. It’s now based on you being able to find enough jobs and meet enough people in hopes to get the money in time. Completing such jobs requires the completion of various mini games: each game unique to its level. Some are harder, some are easier. Some will require you to do them over and over again until you succeed. I don’t want to spoil them, but I can tell you that they really train your timing and reflexes. Really gets you to concentrate on the game. A unique way of challenging the player, nothing I have ever seen before. This game blends both realism and non fiction too, in that it demonstrates the work of the Spanish golden age in its mini games. The Spanish golden age was a time period of flourishing art and literature. This is seen in levels such as helping your friend sing a poem while you are plucking the guitar. For the rest, I’ll let you explore and connect the levels to the games surrounding yourself. A fun and easy way to learn something new.

What a charming game! The game has gorgeous art and music which helps to whisk me away to a Ghibli-esque world. The minigames are varied with lots of new mechanics each being introduced. I look forward to what’s next from this studio.

Titeuf: Mega Party
Decent game to play with friends. Story a bit annoying when you don’t know what to do, since the game doesn’t tell you much, but the minigames are actually worth it.

Dinosaur Bone Digging
CONFIRMED DEAD - junk, non-working at third stage. I’m sure if there was anyone who cared to fix this, they could - instead of taking a few “bones” from people. STEAM could at least remove this crap instead of frustrating our kids and us parents looking for content our kids could play. FIX it or at least clean house! ridiculous! (and no, nobody played 7 hours of this game- maybe 7 min!)

My grandson approves of this game. This is for children 2 to maybe 5 years of age. Nice graphics, and fun game play. 10/10.

Grottesco Absurdus
I expected this game to be a bizarre, surreal or funny experience. I play a l lot of games so short games wouldn’t have bothered me, but that wasn’t the issue. It was just not that fun.
Most of the gameplays are just trial and error and most of them involves just clicking stuff at the right timing.
The gameplay itself isn’t that much fun, and it is actually very short while the ride isn’t rich.
The most “mechanical” minigame is one where you click ‘n drag a character to dodge bullets. You need to survive for the score of 100 in order to consider it beaten. One game update claims it has been fixed to be possible, but it was still very difficult and unfun. The problem with it is how random it was, so you were basically depending on luck. You cannot respond fast enough as your character is slow and mildly unresponsive.

This is a fun little game consisting of weird mini games where you have to discover the rules of each mini game yourself. It took me a bit longer than what I initially thought it should, as all the achievements are missable, therefore I suggest you use a guide to unlock the achievements, as if you look for them yourself it will take quite a while to complete.
I am a big fan of these types of games and I have played all the games from this specific developer and I loved all of the games. I recommend that you guys play this game and if you liked it, then get some of the other games from this developer. Most of the games are short, but definitely worth it.

Raccoon The Miner
A poorly designed picross clone. Don’t buy if red/green colourblind as it’s hard to tell the squares apart.
– Real player with 62.1 hrs in game
Plays basically like a picross game, except the boards are randomly generated so there’s no actual picture.
For each successful click, you can earn coins to buy tools to help with difficult areas.
While I enjoy it, it doesn’t use 5-tile marks to help with counting nor are the boards divided into grids of 5x5, so you have to manually count out or risk making a mistake.
Also I couldn’t figure out how to increase the visual appearance of the board, so it tended to be very small, and not using the whole screen, making counting the tiny tiles even more tedious.

People typically hate on this game for inevitably being the decent of Rayman games for half a decade, and that is actually true. Though I do wish this turned out to be the full fledged “Rayman 4” that it was supposed to be, this game is still fun.
I grew up a huge Rayman fan because of the characters, they were so entertaining. The Rabbids are an entertaining group, as proved by a line of sequels, mainstream merchandise. and a television show. Since Rabbids are your only source of character selection here, you’d think it’d be sub-par, alas the Rabbids continue to entertain with their outlandish behaviors.

Shelter in Place
Damn! There’s like, a million activities in mini-game filled mansion. Graphics aren’t great, but not too bad either, and physics is good enough iirc. It really does have something for everyone. Painting, archery, umm. climbing, shoot that’s my jam it had a climbing wall. What else? A maze. Other stuff. I dunno. It has everything.
! Wait. I can just scroll down this store page and it has a list. Check it out! https://youtu.be/7wpVd4Pz80o

My Initial Thoughts:
When I first saw this game it was priced at £15…. it’s now ONLY £7.
Its got some fun cool elements if you are into sandbox type worlds to mess around in but don’t expect Boneworks. The climbing room and and art rooms we’re my highlights.

Cardboard Ground
The humour kept me hooked. I found myself repeatedly talking to the same characters to see what would happen.
I got addicted to some of the mini games which definitely side tracked me from the main story. Took me 18 hours to complete. Some of the puzzles can be difficult so just remember if you get stuck that I’m smarter than you.

Be on the watch for a cannibal as you traverse the naked city of Offbay.
It’ll make you cry, it’ll make you laugh, it’ll make you fling fecal matter at other men without remorse or dignity.
It’s a puzzle platformer with a brand of dark humour and wit that encapsulates the off colour world of Cardboard Ground.
Built from the ground up from sole developer Matt Close; this debut game will make you question your friends about this new game maker, asking:
