Full Disclosure: I received a copy of the game to playtest during development. You can even fine me in the credits as “SaruRoku”!
Quantum Protocol is first and foremost, a Cardgame, with a story that’s presented in a visual novel style.
The visual novel elements do string along a fun, but mostly lighthearted story, without any of the “choices” that would make a visual novel game, but they do provide levity and a change of pace after most stages, as well as giving you some insight to the various characters who’s decks each follow their own themes.

Tales From Evenfall
This game is quite beautiful and relaxing. It has an ok story, with some funny references, and I liked the mechanics since we have the option to move our characters on the keyboard. My only issue with it is that I experienced some bugs, nothing too serious, but one of them was that even though I completed my quest it showed as incomplete, and I had to figure out what to do next by guessing, so sometimes I got stuck. Since the game is pretty new it’ll probably be fixed soon, so I didn’t mind it too much, I think this game has great potential to be a very fun and enjoyable experience, hope the developers keep updating it so we’ll have more things to explore.

Incremental Epic Hero
Im playing this since it came out a year ago. The progress is slowly, but in this game you can build up your character in different ways. Lots of loopholes allow boosts of progress. Many of these Loopholes are only working during a certain stage of progress. Searching and using these makes the most fun.
I play a different style, than the developer intended. I play without any reincarnation and i was still able to get the DS killed even before this game came to steam. Since then i made even much more progress.

First time playing this game - Unlike some who have had the chance to play it on some websites.
Easy learning curve and they introduce new features such that we are never bored. The biggest wall we encounter is probably the one for the reincarnation feature (different from rebirth). Be patient - We are not meant to access that content early on. Make sure you read some guides on how to beat the challenge though as it requires a specific strategy.
As for premium currency, we get a ton from regular quests and daily quests. Save to purchase any upgrades that improve you daily quests first such that, later on, you are guaranteed at least 1 to 2k Epic coins per day from the daily quests alone.

Forever and Ever
CUNNING STRATEGY AND THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP ARE YOUR GREATEST WEAPONS (BUT GUNS AND MAGIC HELP TOO)
Forever and Ever is an anime-inspired turn-based strategy game with billions of different heroes ready for adventure. In a world of heroes and villains battling for immortal glory, a strange storyteller falls from another world. As this mysterious bard, recruit uniquely generated future legends with diverse appearances, backstories, and personalities. Only your tactics and the bonds of their friendship can lead them to eternal fame and fortune!
CUNNING STRATEGY
-
Build a team from 10 different character classes that support a wide range of tactics!
-
Battle with action-packed abilities that can be customized to fit your strategy!
-
Every fight is fair- win or lose based on your decisions, not how much you’ve been grinding!
THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP
-
Discover procedurally generated backstories to reveal your heroes' past, personality, and secret ambitions!
-
Forge friendships on the battlefield whose bonds will save them in clutch moments!
-
You’ll never see the same hero twice! Forever and Ever features over 5 billion uniquely-generated characters!
-
If they die, they’re gone forever (and ever)!
Whether your heroes are ancient defective gardening robots, magical animal children, zombified party addicts, or edgelords from the future, the journey starts with an interview! Learn about each candidate’s strengths, weaknesses, backstories, and personality, and find the heroes that are right for you. Maybe your team needs an Outlaw, a rockstar gunslinger who can’t stop dishing out damage? Or a Crusader, a bulky knight-officer who shields your team from harm with the power of THE LAW? Or a blasphemous Heretic, who dares to use their magic to protect instead of fight? These character classes and more await you in the world of Forever and Ever!
Guide these heroes into battle, and soon they’ll discover Secret Techniques: modifications and additions to their original abilities to expand your tactical options. Develop a fierce warband that fights with your personal flair!
Throughout their journey, heroes develop bonds and relationships that strengthen over time. These bonds show their true power in heroes’ most dire moments, and can save them from certain death. A Crusader and a Punk, once enemies on opposite sides of the law, now fierce comrades, push each other to fight beyond their mortal limits. An Exorcist shouts a word of warning to her wife, letting her dodge a deadly blow at the last moment. A Hermit heals his rival from the brink of death, and friendship begins to replace their antagonistic feelings. What story will you and your heroes tell?
Romancing Monarchy
A good little game. Not so easy to play, because it needs some tactics about classes.
Bosses are strong enough to give a challenge.
After 5 hours spent, I’m far away from the end. Thank for this game. It is cheap, so i had no regrets to buy it. Honestly, I had never think that a little game like this gave me sensation that i search when i play a game. I’m not asking for more.

Loved it! Pretty good game! No need to wait for a sale at this price! It is under $3.50, so you have to remember you didn’t pay $50 for it, but it’s pretty awesome, I loved it!

Florensia
I have been playing this game on an off for about 8 years, before the new server even came out and have probably wasted more than 3000 hours of my life across several accounts and multiple different characters. I find the game itself quite fun although it can be repetitive at times with its mundane combat system and buggy naval combat, however, what plagues this game the most is the absence of options for free to play players to get gear or equipment that could be considered at least mediocre: before the elite dungeons update, free to play players could make a decent amount of money by grinding sea levels and gathering magic crystals (a valuable in game resource). However, after the update even that option got removed as magic crystals became way more common and the only viable way to get better gear became spending real money in the game.Overall the game is pretty good and can be fun if played with friends for the first time, but is an absolute pay to win nightmare.

First of all, sorry for my poor english, its not my first language.
I’ve played this game for a long time before it came to steam, im very happy it still alive! This simple MMORPG taught me how to play with a keyboard, since it was the one of the firsts game i’ve ever played on a PC. This game have amazing songs, and the graphics are cute (at least before you leave the first island), but they work very well with the atmosphere. As you progress, you have to sail to another islands, and you can control you battleship on the ocean, listening to the greatests songs in the game.

Magellania
Magellania is the best CRPG (Clown Role-Playing Game) on the market to date.
It takes the most fun elements from Tactical RPGs; stat-based battle, positional strategy, and team-building, and simplifies the style enough so that the focus of the game is on the puzzle-like elements.
There also isn’t any perma-death, which works for the game but I would like an update to add it at some point, please. It may be unlocked after beating the game, I’m not sure.
Magellania is all about knowing which units work well against which units, manipulating unit structure to, what order to most effectively use “combo”, what set of Badges to bring to battle on which unit.
– Real player with 73.0 hrs in game
Magellania is a small tactics-RPG with a unique style.
It’s a fun game with some small issues - but if you know exactly what to expect from this game and you’re still interested, please buy it. You will have a great time.
So here are the things you should know first:
-
There’s no proper ingame menu. Settings can be adjusted before loading a save or starting a new game.
-
You can only access and adjust your recruits in your home base or at the start of a battle
-
No EXP grinding or levels. Your party will only gain stats through equipment (=badges).

Tears of Avia
Update: I originally wrote this review on launch day, I have now completed one full playthrough and adjusted some comments to reflect this.
A great genre aware indie game. If you love JRPG’s then this will embody every trope, cliche and worn-to-the-ground charisma you’ve come to love in the best ways possible.
With a selection of protagonists straight out of a pregen dungeons and dragons adventure, colourful and classic personalities along with bright and iconic designs (RIP Reina’s spine) there’s someone you’re bound to love. I myself was torn between the obviously-the-protagonist Kai and the all too matching a description Iris. And the rest of the cast, so far, hasn’t been a let down either for me. From the hard working superior you bump into to the obviously-not-merlin (which I have nicknamed Fauxlin) provides plenty of laughs. Although you don’t spend much time with some of the later characters, revisiting previous locations will sometimes provide interesting inter-character dialogue that you can watch while in the tavern, and replaying some levels with mixed up parties will let you see interesting dialogue combinations. With the added bonus who you recruit and how you treat your party members changing their outcome in the epilogue also, some of which can be quite sad.

This review has been updated to reflect my thoughts after completing the game on normal.
1. Nice character and enemy designs
2. Nice animations (you can skip them and enemy movement)
3. Good music and the main menu theme song is catchy
4. Varied skill trees kind of encourage skill experimentation
5. Loot from battles is worthwhile - a nice gameplay loop of finding better gear
6. Combat is streamlined (healed after battle and can quickly retreat to town)
7. When you equip a new weapon its shown in battle and also the main character in town exploration

Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West
I’ve loved this game for many years now and have logged near countless hours but I feel this negitive review is nesscary.
The developers have been contated about known exploits and hacking and have blatenly refused to do anything about it.
As not only a server owner but an avid fan of the game this upsets me to no end.
Not only do I not reccomend purchasing this game I recomend staying far away from all FatShark games. Why waste your time falling in love with a game that will only be tossed to the wayside.

As of patch version 2.0 that came out several months ago, this game is completely broken and dead. Every dedicated server you try to connect to gives you the “FAILED TO CONNECT TO SERVER” message (you can start a local server, but it’ll be insanely laggy) and the developers won’t even acknowledge the existance of this game now that their new game (WOTR) is out. Even though I had hundreds of hours of fun in this game when it worked, it does not excuse the developers from breaking their game and jumping on their next cash cow without so much as even an attempt to fix this.
