Survive or Thrive
Secret word: Purge
Chance of survival: Extremely High
Sorry, but I’m not satisfied with this test. The mind gymnastics was nice but I left this test not finding a closure. I wish Steve would start cracking up a joke or become heart-to-heart with me, just like the other test givers.
The questions are disorganized and far too odd. I don’t see the pattern leading up to my first answer.
On the good side, the music is fine. The ending managed to make me feel… an unknown yet strong emotion. I can’t quite put my finger on it. The questions do make me think about what really matters to me in a life or death situation,

Kinda like those psychological tests you can do on the internet, but more fun.
I like to review hypothetical scenarios and think about how I would actually choose in those situations.
Like all kinds of those tests tho, some questions could really use some more context or additional Information as sometimes several choices could be the “best choice” for survival, depending on the circumstances of the individual situation.
My result was: Very high chances of survival on the mental asylum through planning and manipulation of the other patients and the asylum staff.

The Confession
So I found this game while browsing my reccomended feed and my curiosity was piqued. With the price being cheap enough as it is, and with a bunch of time at my disposal, I couldn’t help but give it a try.
Honestly, it was completely worth it the money for the laughs, the absurdity and the horniness of it. Not knowing anything about the other work of this developer too, message after the end really intrigued me and I feel like i’m about to go down a rabbit hole.
I also genuinely admire the intent behind this game too, since it’s clear that it was just meant to be a silly little distraction, in a time where such a thing is sorely needed.

So far today I have played The Test, The Test: Hypothesis Rising, and The Confession.
This one certainly brought the chuckles AND the WTF’s. I was cursed with four years of riding a White Rhino’s horn, which is tough, but fair…maybe,.. I honestly don’t know what I did to deserve that but here we are.
Reminds me of Hypothesis Rising in that it had multiple choice, Would You Rather, and Yes or No styles of questions/answers, which I love (although the OG’s simple yes/no format is fine with me, too).

The Twins
It’s very similar to The Summoning and shares a lot of the same references in the story.
It’s more Lore Based and opens up on the history of The Summoning, and the poems are a nice bonus feature that adds a level of creepiness to the atmosphere.
While it felt very similar, it simultaneously felt very different in its own, positive way.
I enjoyed both of these experiences even though The Summoning scared the daylights out of me at first.

I think I enjoyed The Summoning better just because it was the first one, but I think The Twins really added a lot more depth. It was good to get more of the story in a way, rather than just the experience the first game offered. I don’t think these games have to be played in order though. I also played The Summoning with a friend but I played The Twins on my own so maybe it would have been more fun with company. I don’t really believe in supernatural stuff though so I think watching my friend who does added a lot of fun to it. I’ve seen first hand just how scared someone can get if they do all of the rituals rather than just skim over them. I think if you don’t play the game the way it’s meant to be played, then you’re gonna have a bad time. If you follow the instructions, your chances of having a good time increase significantly, again, if you’re into this sort of stuff.

Absolute trash. You run around aimlessly through woods and find a car or a phone in order to leave while this hilariously dumb crawling thing stalks you.
Took about 10 minutes.

Witch’s Reign
So first things first, this game is not worth the $10 price tag. That’s a steep price for a game that is fairly short, at the time of this review.
I got this game on sale for $3 and that is a pretty good price!
This game is pretty good, it’s got some solid puzzle ideas and I like the simple art design. It’s a memory puzzle where you explore a dungeon of sorts and make sure you don’t die to traps and monsters. You have a small line of sight due to a candle that can be blown out or lit again in order to trick the monsters onto the traps.

Lucky me gets to write the first review for Witch’s Reign. This is a very simplistic, bare bones top down “survival horror puzzle”, whatever that’s supposed to mean. What you really get is what seems like a mobile app where you can only see one square ahead, and in only one direction, so you need to move around an obscured grid/maze without getting eaten by baddies or falling in traps.
This has been slapped together with Unity, the game engine that’s been enabling mediocrity everywhere and giving Starbucks baristas delusions of grandeur since 2005. However, it’s very unpolished, to the point I don’t think this is an asset flip or a copy+paste of someone else’s tutorial or game demo. Nor could I find it on app stores, although they have higher QA than Valve, so probably wouldn’t permit this. So, I guess kudos to the developer for having a try. I think that’s more likely the explanation, that someone wanted to make a game but didn’t really know how, but put it on Steam anyway. I kind of wish Steam wasn’t a dumping ground for half baked ideas, there’s places like itch.io for that.

Global Pandemic
The plan was to experiment with Dinosaur and Zombie DNA.
The plan was NOT to create a virus, NOT to let it out, and NOT to effect the whole world.
The vast majority of the population of the planet died within months. Those that remained either “Turned” vicious and feral, or if immune to the pandemic, live their lives as bandits. All are dangerous. Not to mention the Dinosaurs…
Game Play
Set in a post-apocalyptic open world, you can create bases through building, and create items through crafting. Loot is available to find throughout the world. Manage your own inventory, and use containers such as lockers, crates, kitchen cupboards, and more.
Bandits, the Turned (Zombies), wild animals, and even dinosaurs (optionally!) will seek to kill you. You will also have to deal with thirst, hunger and the elements.
Explore the ever-growing world, full of places to discover, by running or using vehicles. From military bases, to abandoned villages - from motels to remote buildings - from hidden caves to farms - every update brings more to discover and encounter, in Global Pandemic.
An innovative skills and stats system will see your character develop in your own game style (or set all to fully developed if you prefer!).
Can you survive? Who will you be? What world will you create?

Quiver Dick’s Terrible Tale For Terrible Parents To Read To Their Equally Terrible Children
When I first saw the preview for Quiver Dick’s (hehehehh well played steam…) Terrible Tale For Terrible Parents to Read To Their Equally Terrible Children, I knew I needed to play it. This game has dark humour, hilarity, a thirsty fairy, awesome music and is dripping in both in-your-face smut and innuendos.
This game is so well put together with incredible art throughout and has the capability of three different possible endings. There are easter eggs as well as nods to music, film and video games throughout with the game clearly being self aware.

First off, if you read the title you already know what kind of game this going to be, and if you already know what kind of game this is going to be your expectations will be high…this game does not disappoint. Off the rip in the opening credits I was enjoying a Monty Python feel (which for me is always a belly laugh kinda experience). The names in the game, the dialogue, the situations encountered..everything about this game felt like it was directly tailored to my idea of humor. The game in and of itself is well made, crisp, and nostalgic in its craft. The laughs will come a plenty and it actually has replay value (which for me as a completionist is awesome). Highly recommend this game for streamers who want to have a good time with their chat and go on a comedy filled journey that will have a lot of “lol’s” “wtf’s” and “LMFAO’S”. Well done Crankagegames…well done.

Help Me
This game was so much fun and made me laugh so much! Probably the best $2 I’ve ever spent!
– Real player with 0.6 hrs in game
A nice silly little game of choices where every turn there is potential death. No matter what happens you won’t be leaving completely intact. The art-style is interesting and everything meshes well together. Its short but worth the time to play.
Full playthrough, all endings: https://youtu.be/T7jAW-oAFYQ
