RECONNECT - The Heart of Darkness

RECONNECT - The Heart of Darkness

First off, this game is a piece of minimalist art! You really feel that the devs wanted to create something new and truly unique.

..and they succeeded!

Secondly, I really like that this game does not stress me. So, if you are looking for high adrenaline RTS action this game is not for you. It’s for peeps like me that enjoy being taken on a ride and like to sit in their heavily secured base and forget the time while watching dumb AI drones becoming hellishly smart AI drones.

Thirdly, it’s a game for people that like to be challenged! Enjoying this game is easy, winning this game is HARD! XD

This is a very good puzzler with a great OST .

Sadly this one goes in the buried gems category, it is always sad to see a quality game like this not getting more attention.

The game has some very smartly designed and tricky levels, more then enough content, most of the game is medium difficulty but there are harder levels and for me they are a highlight of this game.

This game is pure quality in every aspect and worth every cent.

The movement is intuitive enough for you to work backwards - so you can get ideas as to what needs to be done without the entire puzzle being spoiled. I’d recommend it if you’re looking for a ~10 hour ish puzzle game.

A fun little game that is a mix of tower defense and critter simulation.

There are many various critters in the game with each type having their own behavior and priorities,

some being peaceful, some preying on other types of critters, some plants having different ways to spread, some critters eating specific plants and so on, which makes for a surprising amount of artificial intelligence in the game.

You don’t control anything directly but instead are given power to generate a breeze that gently pushes stuff around.

This is a great game! A retro style with a current social feel! Some things I like about it:

1. It feel like playing one of my arcade machines

2. Who doesnt want their garden to thrive?

3. The game is explained just enough that makes you think about what you need to do in order for your garden to stay healthy

4. While there are not tons of critters/plants/baddies to understand its great fun learning how they all interact and what they do

I really do enjoy playing this game and look forward to the next round of mouse clicking madness! (thank goodness for pause!)

Shadow Gangs

Shadow Gangs

Prelude:

I met the developer of Shadow Gangs a decade ago on a Retro forum. He first started this project back in 2015, as a Kickstarter campaign which unfortunately was cancelled.

He knew that I was loved the arcade version of Shinobi, and was very good at it.

Imagine my surprise when he asked me to be a beta tester and give feedback; what an honour and privilege.

Review:

Firstly, let me just say that this game is absolutely spectacular!!! Not only does this live up to my perceived expectations, but far exceeds them by a long shot.

If you don’t like old school games and don’t have a knack for giving your best in accomplishing a challenge then Shadow Gangs isn’t for you. Only the elite members of the Hall Of Kage can acquire such an unbeatable task but if you dare to give it your all maybe….just maybe, you shall stand among the legends and say I am a Shadow Gang Master!

Last Soul - Prologue

Last Soul - Prologue

Ok. I’ll start saying that this game is AMAZING. Now, some details. The music is getting you to the perfect hectic state that any gamer wishes. It makes you focus only on the game. Nothing else matter.

To control the game with the Keyboard, is a bit of a challenge. I hope they change to WASD and set the feature to IJKL (for example). But, if you play using an Xbox Control, it’s flawless. The jumping distances, the shooting, the explosions, everything shows that these guys took the time to test their game thoroughly.

I have just played the demo version and I like it! I would recommend it with no doubt.

It is a platform game which remembers classic ones in 80/90’s with a Star Wars / futuristic flavour that could engange everyone ;)

Music and graphics are enough good to be playable (you can enjoy the music by itself if you subscribe their newsletter so you can appreaciate it because in the game, you are focused to shoot and kill enemies).

Game mechanics are not new (double jump, dash, climb, etc.) but are implemented in a very good way :)
