Puzlkind Jigsaw Puzzles
Update(?): They have stopped updating the counter/leaderboard since July 2021.
–———————————————-
I love puzzles, especially 5000pc. Although this table top mod’s maximum pc is 2000, it is enough to occupy your time and mind like doing a real puzzle.
This game is created by a collaboration of 3 persons in a community where they meet up for Pie and Puzzle Sunday : ) before the the 2019 Pandemic.
+Strong Positives(Great choice of Software) :
Those who have tried ‘playing’ Tabletop/board games on Steam would know that, those ‘games’ do not come with instructions and tutorial, hence most of the time 2 players would be confused and just be flipping or throwing chips and cards around the board as there is no program to set the rules for where the chess pieces can go or cannot go.

If you like puzzles then you’ll like this game. Very relaxing to sit and do this in the evening with my glass of wine.

Awkward
A really solid and well-made party game, it’s like a piece of art in my steam library.
-
Haven’t encountered a single bug/glitch
-
Fun, entertaining and trippy artwork
-
Clean user interface
-
Great sound design
-
The way the gentleman pops up and says “Awkward!”, is a really nice touch
-
Native controller support, which is something that can be overlooked in these sorts of games
-
The “super awkward” update essentially sorted out the only issue the game had, which was the wait for round 3

So what is Awkward?
It’s a simple yet addictive opinion guessing game. It’s fun with a friend or partner but should be most fun in a group where you try to do better than the others. I found the comparison with the “rest of the world” to be less interesting than I had hoped, so I can’t really recommend playing solo.
Final verdict: Wait for a sale!
Strongest point: A game in your steam library you can play with any person. Plus: Geat artstyle.

Super Sketchy Party
It’s as sketchy as the title make it seems. It’s just so bareboned, it doesn’t make people want to play. Sure, it’s early access, but they really should have made it much more attractive.
It’s not that it’s bad, it’s just badly explained and there’s much better, and funnier alternatives. My friend was completely bored on it, and we decided to quit during the first game and we switched to a certain stand-alone similar Jackbox game that kept their attention for far, far longer.
There’s barely any music or sounds, which makes the whole experience feel dull. Animations are barely present in the game making it feel boring, and the game doesn’t make people interact with each other partly due to the presentation. Just having a narrator or anything to explain in the beginning would make a really sweet difference. The different prompts really didn’t felt much funny, they were honestly quite boring.

Naked News
One of the funniest games ive played in ages. I havent been laughing this much since … i dont even know anymore. Its a wonderful game and definitely worth its price. Oh and since the credits encouraged me to give the creators of the game some feedback: ITS AWESOME, YOU DID A SPLENDID JOB GUYS AND I HOPE THERE WILL BE MORE OF THAT. No but seriously, im willing to spend all my hard earned money on games like this. As uve stated in the credits jokes are getting a worse image day by day and so i love to see guys like you who dont hesitate do be a little bit more daring than most of the other devs out there. Seriously, the price is fair and square for what we get, its a great game and im looking forward to see more of you :)!

Having played Randumb Studios, this one on it’s surface seemed much different as most of the others are horror themed. Fun little game - it’s brief but definitely worth the price and you will get some laughs out of it if you aren’t too dead inside.
I also suspect the game itself is a piece of a larger puzzle that I have yet to figure out but has me intrigued to no end. Recommend this and the other Randumb Studios games!

Puzzle Together
The Good the Bad and the Ugly
The Good - You can play with friends in real time without having to invite them over and clutter a table and worry about losing pieces. In this time of social distancing it is a way to play with friends and family members with out worry.
The bad - there seems to be a problem with the idle indicator. If you get the msg (are you still there?) the puzzle freezes and you have to close the game and restart it and rejoin the group.
The Ugly - the price. 5 free puzzles and then ,99 for each additional puzzle. Micosoft jigsaw puzzle has hundreds of free puzzles you can buy additional packages of puzzles as you need them for much less. I would be more inclined to buy a package then individual puzzles.

I definetly recommend this game if you like puzzling/ puzzling together every once in a while
I haven’t payed for the game so this is a review from the no pay perspective
pros:
-fair amount of free puzzles (6) which are also changing (motive) regularly (every month or so, idk the exact rhythm)
-optional ingame voice
-ingame chat
-optional ingame music (many (maaany) different radio frequencies)
-you can sort the puzzle pieces by command and choice (colour, segments, edges, etc.)

Destinies
Great board game companion app, I found no difficulties with the base functionality and I definitely recommend playing it over steam on a laptop with a bigger screen.
My 2 main points of feedback regarding the game in general are:
1. There’s hardly any need or use for the board and the minis of the actual physical board game. We found ourselves looking only at the screen, which had the most up do date information about the locations and map, and forgot to move our minis around in the physical version. The biggest use for the physical map and minis, is to note down the location where items are dropped.

Sumy Shelltris - ICEBLOCKS 2
Sumy Shelltris – ICEBLOCKS, was a game created from the following question: what if in the Tetris game, instead of ready-made pieces, the player had to assemble them? With an aggravating factor, the number of cubes arranged, would be drawn!
Sumy Shelltris – ICEBLOCKS was born from the premise of being a game, where the player creates his own pieces and, later, fits them on a board. As a prize, you’ll win gold, silver and bronze medals, releasing phrases from great mutant thinkers, in addition, of course, to achievements.

The Dope Game
The price isn’t that bad, especially considering the current prices of the trading cards. The game itself however is pretty lackluster coupled with a mandatory install for another (free) game in order to unlock all the locations/perks in this game.
The “secret lab” isn’t implemented yet, and the “fun park” is pretty dull as well.
The horrible horrible soundtrack.
The music, and sounds, isn’t bad for the first couple of playthroughs. But once you get the basics down, and start spending -10 seconds on each screen it gets pretty frustrating.

Overview
Drugwars, Dopewars, and now there’s The Dope Game. Same concept, but now it’s on Steam. In case the player somehow doesn’t know the drill, every game starts with a player borrowing money in a turn-based strategy to speculate on the dope market all the while either avoiding (or winning) fights with gang members and cops while hoping to raise enough money to pay back the loanshark and keep buying and selling their way to riches before the days expire.
