Overall: 3/5 Competent

A KIng’s Quest is a short RPG Maker MV game revolving around answering questions on human anatomy and physiology (even when the enemy is not remotely human.) The game self-parodies its strange world where everything revolves around being a medical professor, including an early question where you must know the exact name of the part of your foot you want to stomp on a slime with.

Due to its brief length, almost every object in the game world can be examined for some cheeky remark or a few extra gold pieces. Or a secret enemy, sometimes.

0.1 hrs, that’s right. But I’ve seen enough. This game is lacking in every aspect, from gameplay to graphics to controls. I took one look and ran -you should do the same… for now. If the devs do something quick and I decide to give it another shot, I’ll make sure to update this review.

Getting a game started up is far more difficult that it needs to be. The UI is terrible. The controls don’t work. What a shame as this looked right up my street, but the lack of any developer activity on the discussion boards just ONE day after their game released says it all really. Such a disappointment.

Sorry guys, it’s a no from me…

Skyland: Heart of the Mountain

Skyland: Heart of the Mountain

This game was totally useless. It was confusing and full of shyte half the time. I’m not even sure the writers understood the story half the time. It is a beyond convoluted futuristic end of the world type plot with characters dressed up like Lara Croft one minute and a Viking princess the other. There is all kinds of technical mumbo jumbo and very little explanation for anything. Sometimes it felt like Artifex was trying to be scientifically accurate instead of entertaining. We don’t give a damn if the technology is correct! Just give us a game that isn’t some 40 year old trekkie’s wet dream.

The Game Review

Game Visuals

I want to mention that the visual for the game is nicely done. The visuals can be adjusted in the game’s option menu. Please do note that this is an old game, it might not play well on wide screen monitors in full screen mode; due to the game’s format.

Modern Tales: Age of Invention

Modern Tales: Age of Invention

Modern Tales: Age of Invention was an impulse buy. It was on sale for £4.19 and I just really wanted to play a puzzle game. So I purchased, downloaded and started playing immediately. I have several issues with this game, but it’s generally good if you’re not looking for anything special.

PROS:

  • Art style is nice, though the talking animations are weird (but I expected this from a 4 quid Big Fish game tbh).

  • The puzzles are genuinely pretty fun to solve and the sound effects are super satisfying.

6180 the moon

6180 the moon

6180 is a minimalist platformer where you play as the moon on a mission to wake the sun. The name derives from the amount of time it took to create the alpha (roughly 1 hr, 43 min). Its key feature is the ability to loop around from bottom to top of the screen, and using this to get around all manner of obstacles. The real game begins after you’ve reached the sun…

Pros

  • Simple controls, ease of play

  • Clean interface & design

  • Simple progression of difficulty with introduction of new mechanics

6180 The Moon, as has been mentioned in reviews before my own, was so named as this is the number of seconds it took the developers to make its prototype - around an hour and 45 minutes (thanks for the correction madsen). But why is this so important? Well, it’s my issue with this game; it feels like it never developed far beyond a fun little coding or development project.

Aside from the screen-wrapping mechanic you can see in the trailer, 6180 The Moon features all the typical “minimalistic puzzle-platformer” fare you might expect, albeit at a very rudimentary level. Move from left to right across the screen, get to the objective, and avoid the spikes. Levels are short and relatively uncomplicated, with difficulty in most puzzles coming through manipulation of the gravity mechanic. In essence, jumping pushes you out the top of the screen and in through the bottom; you hit an arc somewhere in the middle, and float right back down again. And that’s the game.
