Ossuary
Ossuary is now one of my favourite games ever made. A philosophical journey, something in between RPG and text adventure. The artwork perfectly suits the objective; the graphics are simplistic yet crafted with much attention to detail. The avatar you take control of resembles a marble navigating a labyrinth. The ossuary’s museum is secretly a mizmaze.
Built on the principles of discordianism, the game takes place in the lower hell, purgatorial ossuary, a place of bones. This is a place where no progress can be made, no ideas can flourish. What the wanderer must realize is that this place is the lowest point: any deeper hell exists merely within fear itself. Those who live in fear are trapped in a desolate labyrinth and remain in the dark. Once the wanderer realizes this, the unbinding begins. FNORD

This game is hard to get into.
The start of the game is dull and nothing really prompts you to continue playing, besides a few minor dialogue options. Though the game doesn’t really change from this formula, I started to enjoy it more and more as I played through.
With over 1,300 lines of dialogue, every character’s personality is detailed enough that you’ll want to explore all their possible responses.
Direction wise, this game does not hold your hand.
This is a game where you have to play it in one sitting, which is about a 3-5 hour playthrough.

A novel idea start to finish, and while I recommend this for anyone wanting to finish the saga of Azurael’s Circle, I feel it was not a fitting ending. It came too soon - the game play, while familiar, lacked the intensity and scariness of some of its predecessors. I would love to see an epilogue that goes further to finish the story… otherwise, the mechanics remain as awesome as they ever were. I still enjoyed the slow reveal of the light in the shadows and having to make sure I walked every square inch of each room to ensure I didn’t miss anything.

Mystery
A brief overview:
A group of young people set up a tent camp on the shore of the unpopular (but, nevertheless, beautiful!) altai lake. But they were not allowed to rest in peace: soon the camp was attacked by religious fanatics who settled in a dilapidated village nearby.
Ilya Zheleznov, who arrived at the place later than everyone else, found that everything was scattered in the camp, and there were no friends in place. Ilya finds Ivan’s smartphone, on which the young man recorded an audio message in a frightened voice that Marina found some strange amulet in the forest and then she disappeared. Ilya sets off on the tracks that lead the main character into a world full of death and madness

Last Light
I was first attracted to Last Light for its art style, which is absolutely beautifull. For somebody who does not like horror type of games this one really made want to unlock all the achievement (still one to go). So without spoiling anything this is my short review score:
Art: 10/10
Story: 9/10
Difficulty: 7/10
Scare factor: 9/10
It took me 3 hours to go through the first playthrough (took so long because I was scared). To unlock all other achievement, except for one (where are you third floor director!!!) it took me another 10 hours as I did not use any playthrough or guides.

I really enjoyed this game! Only played through it once so far but going to go through it again and try to 100% it next time. My biggest criticism is that the keyboard controls are very frustrating when you’re trying to run away from enemies. I haven’t tried with a controller yet, hopefully it’s easier with that.
Something to NOTE! This game has the following elements that might be an issue for some when playing: occult themes, lots of blood, body horror, bullying/harassment, medical equipment, dead bodies, multiple text descriptions of violence, and two text descriptions of animal abuse. Much “lighter” than most horror games, but please take it into consideration before playing.

Darkestville Castle
This game was so much fun and I’ve found a new universe and lore that I enjoy!
It is a point and click game with great humor, abiet extremely dark humor. Some small memes and easter eggs too scattered throughout. It’s not exactly a kids game, due to some language and subject matter, but it’s not too extreme either. It heavily reminds me of the old Monkey Island point and click games, which is a good thing as those are classics.
I got it on sale for about $10, I don’t think I’d pay the full price for the game, as it’s lacking in some parts but for my $10 I was extremely statisfied with what I had. I got about 8 hours out of the game, but as with most point and click games I get stuck/just wanna experince the story so I started to use a guide. Some of the items to me feel like you wouldn’t even think about trying them, so I guess if you had time on your hands and randomly trying to click on everything you’d get longer than 8 hours out of the game, but still 8 hours is pretty long for a point and click game. Or maybe if you’re smarter than me you’ll get it done faster. There’s also alternate dioulague options which extend gameplay if you want to go back and try all of the options and not just click on the obvious ones relevant to the plot.

TL;DR
Darkestville Castle is a solid, albeit short and relatively easy, 2D point-and-click adventure game in the style of the 90’s classics like Day of the Tentacle and Curse of Monkey Island. Smooth gameplay and lots of campy humor provide a nice “in-between” snack for fans of the genre, although at full price, roughly 7-8 hours of gameplay and little replay value might be too little value-for-money for some.
Summary
The game puts you in the shoes of Cid, the demon of Darkestville, on a quest to defeat his arch nemesis, Dan Teapot. The game is divided into a prelude, three chapters (four if you count the final scene of the game) and two interludes, which will take you from Darkestville Castle to the town of Darkestville, and eventually to Hell. Along the way, you’ll encounter between roughly 30 to 40 NPC’s, somehow involved in the various puzzles the game offers, and pretty much all of them with extensive (and often funny) dialogues.

Demon Blast
Introduction
As I absolutely adore the DOOM series and similar titles, Demon Blast naturally caught my eye on Steam’s Store Page immediately. Its colourful, cartoonish art style, along with the promise of killing hordes of demons, was enough for me to give it a try, despite it being in the Early Access. The harsh reality is that this game is unfinished and clunky to play, as you would expect from the Early Access. However, the promised updates are still not released, which is why I finally decided to write a review, as the game’s current content does not offer enough to justify its price for me.

It’s an old game but still a great game, never gets bored of the gameplay and stories, bought the deluxe during the autumn sale 50% discount. The new HD graphic looks good, main characters and some mobs now have voice acting, also now we can choose skills we need when fusing demons which is convenient. It was a pain and time-consuming before on PS2 that we had to keep shuffling until we get at least some okay skills. Hey Atlus, I wish you guys add Persona 5 Royal on PC too, yearning for that game so badly since a lot of us are unable to get a console.

Super Army of Tentacles 3: The Search for Army of Tentacles 2: Black GOAT of the Woods Edition
THE LOVECRAFT APOCALYPSE IS TOTES ON.
The Old Gods are cold. Calculating. Ever waiting. Ever patient. Slumbering towards that day in which the cosmic apocalypse beckons.
And then somebody just has to pull a Leroy Jenkins and start the fun early.
Perry Hollycraft has been called out of “retirement” (i.e. the death plane known as the Dreamlands) in order to figure out what Old God did what, when, and why. The rest of the pantheon isn’t too happy that the apocalypse has been called early. With Gods fighting among themselves in a bid to take advantage of the situation, and the rules thrown out the window, Perry has more than their work cut out for them. Who do you trust (your party members, probably)? Where do you turn (the available hub areas)? How many endings in this game actually differ from one another (we cut it down from twelve to five, but mileage may vary)? Do your choices matter (it depends on how you define “matter” in the context of a video game)? When will this structure of questions end (now)?
To destroy humanity, they’ll need to save it.
