Alien Planet Explorer
For other game reviews, please [url]follow us at What The Game?[/url]
From time to time you’ll come across a game that you can just tell the developer tried and put a lot of effort into. Alient Planet Explorer (APE) is one of those titles. Other than the fact that the game is insanely short, there is a lot of good here if they choose to expand and further add to the game.
At this point, there is no story to be mentioned, but it seems like the intention is there. As the game has some tutorial dialog popups that look a lot like conversation boxes, I would like to assume they wanted to implement story and conversation exchanges. Obviously, the fact that not even a light story is present really hurts the game for a very large portion of the audience.

This game is well balanced, well done, the gameplay is really cool.
The idea of drilling the basement is very nice to me. No crash or bug when I play but sometimes a little trouble stopping my train in the station lol. I love to control my machine with the mouse !!
Note: 8/10 therefore
After I played this game for 23 hours : I just can’t stop playing it .. Going deeper and deeper ! !

An interesting experiment. The player will take on the role of the driver of a huge drill. The whole point of the game is to go down as low as possible, get a certain amount of resources, return to the surface and improve your drill.

Oracle Trials
Oracle Trials is a 2D platformer about a warrior in armor that reminds me of a kind of mario game.
Yes, the graphics here are pixelated, but the musical accompaniment and an interesting story make you not pay attention to it.
And as they say, we need to regain our strength by killing bad opponents.

If you love platformers as much as I do, then you should definitely play Oracle Trials. I won’t say that this is a revolution in the genre, but it is a very high-quality platformer with a bunch of different features and an interesting perspective. I didn’t expect anything from the game, but I got a lot of pleasure. The game has extremely nice graphics, great music and very responsive character controls.
7/10.

“Forza Yang” is a classic Whac-A-Mole game.
Instead of using a hammer, the player needs to shoot down the enemies that show up with limited time.
The game has 4 different themes in total: Western, Private, City, and Sci-Fi.
Each theme will have 4 different maps with increasing hard levels.
There are also two extra mini-games.
Lucky Tower Ultimate
You can play a very early prototype of the game right now. The prototype will allow a glimpse into the first segment of the game. The final version will be vastly improved and expanded in the coming years, so we are eager for feedback! A link to the Discord can be found in the Steam forums.
Lucky Tower Ultimate is a humor driven, narrative roguelike. The narcissistic, clumsy knight Von Wanst attempts to escape a mysterious tower in an absurd adventure. On each of the tower’s floors you’ll need to decide between three doors that reveal deadly traps, monsters, or even other prisoners that might join his escape party.
Everything and everyone reacts to the way you treat them and thus shapes your adventure for better or worse. Selfishly slash your way down and use your companions to your advantage or safely reach the ground together as a team.
Fueled by sassy slapstick humor and hand drawn graphics, the game has each run feel like an immersive cartoon.
Up for grabs - good for stabs!
- From broccoli to dead enemies, everything in the game can be picked up and used as a weapon
There’s tons of characters in the adventure alphabet!
- Randomly generated levels and haircuts keep every playthrough fresh
Friends turn to foes if you step on their toes
-
All characters react to the way you treat them - what goes around comes around
-
Join forces with companions you meet or abuse their powers
Looks like a cartoon, feels like a joke.
-
A hero that makes dying fun
-
Hand-drawn 2D graphics
Kickin’ times for smashing punchlines.
- Voice acting for all dialogues make for an immersive world
Roguebook
Wanted to hold off reviewing it until I beat +15. If you’re looking for a new deckbuilder, I’d recommend this one. I’ve played Slay the Spire, Monster Train, and a few others, and this one really made me want to thoroughly complete it. There is enough variety and unique combinations that really makes each run fun and challenging. It’s not perfect (I’ll talk about that below), but it’s worth the coin.
Positive:
*Gem system adds a fun element that makes some not so useful cards viable.
*The large deck angle adds more ways to build around bad cards.

I unfortunately can’t leave a positive review. I am a linux user. Before buying this game, I checked and saw that the game worked fine with steam compatilibity tools, so I bought it. The game was working perfectly. Then they added an update, which added some random visual bugs (slightly annoying but nothing major) as well as some random game crashes (around once every 1h30 of play for me, but since I’m slow and runs were about 2h30 that was quite annoying). Then the last major update hit, claiming some bugfixes. Cool. I do not experience any bug anymore since my game doesn’t even launch anymore. I’ve tried switching the compatilibity modes, proton versions…etc… to no avail, the game doesn’t launch anymore.

Torchlight
IN A WORD: UNMISSABLE
IN A NUTSHELL:
WHAT TO EXPECT: Fantasy themed ARPG. Few classes but with multiple roles. Satisfying class abilities. Extensive inventory of items. Large variety of enemies and variants. Heavy on the crafting. An avalanche of quests. Wonderful ambience. Colourful, pretty graphics. Very replayable. Repetitive without apology. Singleplayer only.
ACHIEVEMENTS: A NUMBER ARE GRINDY.
STATUS: COMPLETED.
WHEN TO BUY: WHENEVER. 2x SEQUELS EXIST.

★ I wrote this review to help you decide whether you can get YOUR MONEY’S & TIME’S WORTH from this game.
TL;DR
★ I only recommend buying this game when it’s on sale or included in a bundle. If you like Torchlight series in general i’d recommend getting Torchlight 2. It’s way better and you won’t miss much if you skip this one.
SUMMARY
★ Good people decided to settle down near a mine that contains a rare and powerful ore and now they are in danger because bad creatures also want that ore. You get to play as a warrior, an archer (can also equip guns) or a mage. The story takes place in a 35 floor dungeon and in the form of voiced text. After completing the story you’ll unlock an endless dungeon which is the endgame. Almost all of the gameplay involves clearing dungeons. There’s a horse with whom you can engage in philosophical conversations. Your inventory is small, junk loot is a lot and some enemies have huge damage spikes. You have a pet that’s actually useful. You can fish, feed that fish to your pet and watch it transform into a spider. There are fame and character retirement systems. Most difficulty options are easy but there’s a hardcore mode which makes death permanent. The environment is randomly generated, interactable but lacks puzzles. Visuals are cartoonish. Soundtracks are few. The game is highly moddable but not multiplayer.

A House of Thieves
Its got potential, you could add some more things like more AI. Different multiplayer houses, this game is pretty good. You could make it a little scary like adding scarier music and more of a not cartoon vibe. its scary at some parts but yeah this game is n i c e

Last Kids on Earth and the Staff of Doom
I wanted to at least complete the main story mode to give a proper review; I really had fun with this game, I’m super into the show and the books, but not exactly on the whole Action RPG formula (although this one reminded me a lot of Mercenary Kings, and that game rocks) so that says how well the characters can carry you along to keep you hooked xD
If you’re a fan of the show, you’re gonna love this game… Jack Sullivan as a protagonist can be annoying at times (and I like the guy LOL) so I don’t blame you if you find his narration obnoxious, that’s like… his thing, but then again it feels like something from season 1 of the show (considering the game was produced along it) and since then the characters had evolved a bit more ^^

This is the best watermelon themed 3D platformer of all time and one of the funnest run animations I have ever seen! I had fun and finished the game.
More 3D platformers please Emily!
