Insect: Bombardier beetle

Insect: Bombardier beetle

This is certainly a game that exists.

Not a game that’s worth $16, or really worth money at all, but it does technically have all the features to qualify as a game.

You play as a bug that spits at other bugs until they die. That’s it.

The other bugs walk at you extremely slowly so most of the game is spent walking backwards and clicking your mouse a lot, because the other bugs have a decent amount of health and respawn too many times. I’m not sure how anyone thought this would be enjoyable enough to release, let alone charge money for, but it’s here.

Great Great potential but disappointing implementation and execution. 3/5 rating. 2 biggest flaws, 1st main character model looks like a morph/spore child no matter how you customize it its always ugly unoriginal and disappointing especially in comparison to enemy models which are almost all better in appearance than the main character.2nd battle controls are spread to completely different sides of the screen making selecting your opponent then attack feel like a chore instead of fun. overall aesthetic is good i doesn’t have to look expensive or fancy but it needs to be more user friendly with functions the skill implementation is really cool but needing to change which ugly body part your using just to have the skill as well as the body parts not giving any difference in stats seems pointless and once again making it a chore. i would still recommend this game to people looking to see what huge potential it has and drawing interest to it.

Echo of Ayllu

This is a well balanced TCG!! It still on open beta so I think it will greatly improve!

Is FTP and has serveral game modes! Draft, Mirror, Reversal and you can practice VS an IA that also has some premade decks that you can check out.

It will take a bit of learning at the beginning since the mechanics are innovative.

An interesting feature is the possibility to chat with your rival in a comic-like fashion trough pop up text bubbles.

Has some bit of MTG, Eredan or Heartstone in it but in a complete different fashion.

Buen juego, diferente a otros TCG, hay que tomar en cuenta la tactica y estrategia para ganar.

After playing several hours, I can say that the mechanics feel quite similar to Urban Rivals, but with more tactics, if you liked that game, this is yours.

Monster Tribe

Monster Tribe

Monster Tribe fuses strategy combat with rpg systems, item collection and dungeons filled with puzzles to pull the player into its world. But ultimately, this is a game all about exploration. The island of Akama is vast and wild, reclaimed by nature over many years. There are mountains, beaches, forests and mines, along with some scenery much less familiar. Remnants of vast ruins can be seen all throughout the land. In order to explore these strange - and sometimes dangerous - lands, you will need the help of the Ateyan. By binding your spirit to these creatures, you will be able to uncover the many secrets Akama has to offer. You will use the Ateyan to battle your way through the wilderness, and along the way there will be many unique resources to collect. Your tools will help you scavenge for rare ores and logs, and forage for food in the trees and beneath the waves. Resources will be a huge aid to both you and the Ateyan that choose to follow you, allowing you to unlock special fusion forms and power up your party. Once you feel ready, the player can take their team of Ateyan to one of the many Towers present throughout the island, to try to tackle the strange and mysterious dungeons and puzzles that await them there. Beyond these epic challenges lie answers to the mysteries of the past, and possibly a way forward for the people of the present.

In a vast ocean landscape, a lone island sits. This island is called Akama by its people, and it is a very special place. It is the home of not only its native people, but also strange creatures called Ateyan. The Ateyan appeared on this island through a magical Rift, and continuously draw energy from it. Using this magical spirit energy, the Ateyan have manifested wonderful powers of all kinds.

The player will embark into the land of Akama and relearn the secrets of the past. Along the way, you will use the unique powers of the Ateyan to restore a balance that had been tipped a long time ago, and reveal truths about the island, the creatures, and the people who inhabited it long ago. There is much more to the history of this land than the stories that have been passed down. Will you journey to the heart of this world to see them for yourself?

Battling is a key aspect to Monster Tribe, and so we put the utmost care into making sure we got it right. Battles are fought with teams of Ateyan on a small grid battlefield, with each team occupying their own side of the field. There are many complex elements to the way these battles play out, but we have done everything we can to make sure that they are not only deep, but accessible and fun to play through. Below we will detail many of the nuances of the battle system for those hoping to dig their teeth into the meat of the game.

Akama contains many biomes filled with spaces for all kinds of different creatures to fill unique niches in its ecosystem. But, it seems that besides fish and a few birds, no animals live on the island. Instead, small balls of light roam around the wilderness, barely even visible to some - and not at all to others. They are called Ateyan, and according to history they are much more than they appear to be. In the ancient past the Ateyan appeared, through what is only referred to as The Rift, and they exploded in population and diversity all through the island. For many generations they lived alongside the people of the island, and there are descriptions of all kinds of magical, powerful creatures capable of incredible feats. But it seems somewhere along the line the Ateyan and the humans drifted. The Ateyan remained on the island, but only their spiritual essence could be seen; those same strange balls of light. The rest of their existence fell into a space between this world and the world of the Rift, and there the Ateyan could continue their lives without the disturbance of humanity. It is in this form that they stayed. Now, even their very existence as anything more alive than the rocks and rivers - has come into question. As the player will discover upon beginning their journey, this couldn’t be further from the truth.

Mython Island

Mython Island

If you like Monster Taming games like Pokemon and Roguelike games such as Slay the Spire then you need to own this game. It blends the two genres so seamlessly that I can’t believe it hasn’t really been capitalized on before.

The game offers two modes, Story and Survival mode the former has you choosing a starting Mython and the latter you will receive a team of random ones. You have to manage your Mython through the randomly generated runs and pick different paths depending on what gets generated.

Mython Island is a game that I have been waiting for since Visionstead Studio’s first tweet about the game. The art style grabbed me, and the concept seemed cool: a roguelike monster taming game. Going into this game, despite it being EA, I had high expectations.

Mython Island 100% met my expectations, and the developer has exceeded my expectations when it comes to acting on feedback concerning the game.

One of the first things you will experience is the OST, and it is immediately enjoyable. The feeling and sound of the OST changes at different points during the game, but all of it is a cut above many indie games' OSTs!

Dragon Creek

Dragon Creek

Before I get into this review, I will definitely state that this game is honestly not for everyone. In fact, the game is very niche- which is not a criticism, but it is something to mind when contemplating purchasing this game.

The game is very simple, but its simplicity is the beauty of it. You can generate a dragon at the shrine, train it up, battle it, and rank it up.

If someone is looking for a farm simulator with dragon training, this is not that game. The farm can be upgraded, but all upgrades pertain to improving your dragon’s situation. The only thing remotely akin to farming is purchasing the plot upgrades- which you cannot place yourself- so you can grow your own food so you do not need to buy food for your dragon as often from the food stand.

Wow, Dragon Creek. Where to begin…

It’s so adorable! It’s a simple, cute game about raising your own dragon. You have 4 different species that you can get, them being the European Dragon, the Eastern (Lung) Dragon, the Cat-Lung, and the Wyvern. There will be more species on the way too, so keep an eye out. The dragons can be generated through a randomizer or you can put “codes” in to create your own. (Hint: Try messing around with specific dragon names…) You feed, pet, and wash your dragon in this game.
