Clan O’Conall and the Crown of the Stag
Very fun action/puzzle platformer with an interesting Celtic theme. With an intuitive switching system. you control 3 different siblings on their quest to rescue their father the King, who has been captured by the Mother of Demons in an attempt to gain control of the titular Crown of the Stag that he wears. Each hero plays very different and are specially suited for combating different kinds of enemies or solving different puzzles.
The game does a good introducing those puzzles and letting you solve them, but by the mid game you’ll be smoothly swapping multiple times between them in mid-air, triggering different abilities to maximize your hang time or get to a far ledge.

A varied platformer where you take on the role of three Vikin… er, Celts. With them you’ll have to run, fight and jump through a variety of levels to stop the mother of all demons, Caorànach, from destroying an ancient peace between humans and the Fae Folk. To this end, Caorànach has stolen the Crown of the Stag from your village and, by the way, seriously injured the chief, your father.

Orb and the Stars
Fun and challenging platformer where you have to reach the exit as an orb while you can collect star shards in each level. The graphics are rather simple, but the game is fun and challenging.

Trials of Argolis
I’ve done a lot of testing for this game and nearly every time was a joy (bridge boy frustrates me sometimes!! ;-;). Very fluid and smooth first-person combat with challenging bosses and fast paced action. The handpainted artwork lends a really neat aesthetic and overall it looks gorgeous. A great dynamic in play styles despite the rather simple controls and each boss has a particular gimmick to it. Lots of content and deffo worth a buy! ;_; eek

Hermes: Tricks of Thanatos
Foi muito divertido, vou jogar de novo em outro modo. Hermes ficava sentado lá enquanto os Minions faziam tudo e Apolo ganhava a fama. Toda a trama de mitologia também muito legal. Nem senti as horas passando.

轮回修仙决
The current state of the game is about 4 hours worth of fun until the game doesn’t save on hours of work you’ve had by closing it down, no visible option to manually save either.
Options are just too plain compared to any other idle games.

I wish I’d played this when it came out
– Real player with 44.2 hrs in game
A beautiful adventure game with “retro” design sensibilities that must be experienced at least once in a lifetime.
A classic tale of an epic, heroic journey to defeat a powerful evil being, paired with a huge and fantastically crafted world to explore. Presentation is definitely this game’s strength, to the point it can sometimes become overwhelming. A few things I didn’t like was that the game draws out for too long on some parts of the story and because of this, the combat can become tiresome due to it not being used to the fullest. Port itself is excellent and while 60 fps would have been amazing, the 30fps cap is understandable and doesn’t get in the way.

Chess Knights: Viking Lands
It’s been a while since I played chess and when I tried this game I could remember that beginner feeling.
I Recommend this game for those who like chess and also likes a good mind challenge.
I liked some scenario items left behind … buckets, wooden decks and wagons that block areas in board, these kind of things got rid of predicables movements and make things more challenging. I also liked the way some parts got half-covered by snow, this increase the challenge and make me think twice on choosing where to move … specially against Bishops. A little suggestion to improve a sense of progress could be some kind of icon or text that tells the current chapter and stage.

Move chess knights across varying boards to pick up pieces from one square and return them to home squares while avoiding being taken by AI driven enemy pieces.
There are a lot of issues here, the difficulty wildly varies, though ultimately never gets particularly clever and many of the puzzles become just a matter of moving one of your safe pieces back and forth until the board state lets you win.
Some levels try to limit that which is where you feel a sudden difficulty spike which just ends up being more frustrating than challenging.

Earth Guard: Egypt
‘Earth Guard: Egypt’ is a very basic archery style game that sees you armed with a bow and arrow trying to stop waves of enemies who are trying to break into your village. There is only one way in, so that makes things easier, but the enemies (of which there are a handful of different ones) run (and I mean a super-fast sprint) towards that door. The only way you will last more than a few seconds in this game is to spam the bow and arrows, literally just pulling the trigger over and over without pulling back. OK, so there is only one level in this game, but it is free after all and if the enemies can be slowed down quite a lot this could be a fun little download. There is no scoreboard sadly and no end tally, so you have to guess what score you got, but these are small issues that could easily be fixed.

Earth Guard: Egypt is a free to play VR game that did not work. It ran on my HTC Vive system, looked bad, sounded ok, played Nope. Had No VR controls. Had only grabbing of a ball in a pot that you can throw and it exploded. The start and Quit menu button was off in the distance, ball hits didn’t work them either.
Do not bother to download this, unless you are going to review this turkey.
