Cathedral
Take part in an atmospheric sci-fi horror game and stay alive in the last stronghold, the Cathedral. Arise, develop your character, gear up, fight soulless enemies and face the mighty Baron.
The Setting
Fighting continues. The power is exercised by associated rival Barons. Their Union is relentlessly growing and wants to colonize surrounding planets.
Whereas expeditionary forces are successively occupying other planet-states located in the same orbit. Inevitably, Independent Nations are beginning to recoil from the growing onslaught. Moreover, the fact that Neuropium supersedes souls and humanity is fading away does not help.
The emerging resistance needs a leader.
The Gameplay
The Cathedral is the last bastion, the shelter. Initially, your goal is survive and look for fuel cells for the Protector. But, the Baron’s envoys know that the game is at a higher stake than you may initially believe.
Moreover, the asylum hides its own secrets. Discover them, develop your character, fight off the inevitable invasion and gain influence over the course of history.

Lakeview Valley
The Elevator Pitch:
It’s like “8-bit Horror Groundhog Day: The Game.”
Only, it’s really more like “Groundhog Week”, and you’ve traded the meteorology for murder.
The Meat & Potatoes (& Amy’s Cookies):
I absolutely LOVED Lakeview Cabin Collection, so when I found out that the sole developer of LVC, Roope Tamminen, had just recently released his latest game, I couldn’t wait to give it a try.
It quickly and effortlessly surpassed my already-rather-lofty expectations…
-There is a staggering amount of content in this game.

Lakeview Valley is a refreshing take on the genre of Small Town RPG games that I have thorougly been enjoying. After playing more than 45 hours of it I haven’t even brushed the surface of what this game offers and am still getting a handle on what I’m doing.
You play some guy who moved to a new town where nothing is as it seems and you can choose to be whatever you want. I think this game is amazing and I can’t believe I didn’t pick it up from day one.
Want to be a normal guy living a normal life and get to know people and be helpful in your community while remodeling your home? Do it!

The Evil Farming Game: Replanted
All screenshots are of alpha builds, and are subject to change.
What have you gotten yourself into now?
When Richard, the town farmer, finds himself at the center of his wife’s murder, it’s up to him (or you) to figure out what the hell to do.
You live on a small island village, with friendly people, law enforcement, and your wife.
Everyday starts the same, harvest yesterday’s crops, give them to your wife, and plant some more. Forever and ever, maybe sometimes you head to the market to pick up some tools.
But one day, that all changed, late at night, you lash out at your wife, and kill her. As you feel her pulse stop, you have no idea what to do. Will you turn yourself in? Or will you hide, stealthily avoiding punishment.
Make your choice in the First Part of this 2 game duology.
Meet friendly faces! Make friends, make enemies! Make your own story. With endless possibility to how your scheme will end up, there is no way you’ll make it out of this scot-free, as you’ll have more than just your wife, taken away from you.
Replanted is primarily based on the “Evil Farming Game” myth.
Panic Room 2: Hide and Seek
As a sequel to the origonal Panic room it stacks up well. Most of the rooms have had overhauls and there are new items to find, though there is still some problem with ‘okay, what does that word mean in this context?’ Its also facinating to see it from a diffrent perspective if you haven’t run through all the plot in the Panic Room, because it’s taking place afterwards.
That being said, I don’t think you’d needto play Panic Room to enjoy Panic Room2. Things are mysterious, but explained enough you can enjoy the plot on it’s own merits.

I think I am writing this after everything was fixed - because I’m not running into any of the problems others have…
I am playing Panic Room 1 at the same time. There are a few little spoilers I have run into so far, since this game takes place 10-20 years into the future (can’t remember how long exactly), and I’m almost on season 2 of the Panic Room 1 game - but those spoilers I had already figured out early on in PR1 so I didn’t mind.
Things I really like about this game -
- The rooms still closed off to me in Panic Room 1 are some of the first to open in Panic Room 2. Namely, the Film Theatre, the Winter Garden and the Study (so far), so I feel like I’m getting to play most of the mansion. And those that are open in both games look different enough - with different furnishings, time of day/night seen through window, etc, - that it feels a bit like playing two different rooms, so doesn’t feel too similar.

Cultist Simulator
I’m a writer, and I fell in love with Alexis Kennedy’s imagery and lore. I was never into videogames, but the storytelling and atmosphere really spoke to me. I recommend it to dreamers and problem-solvers alike.

This game has to be the single most difficult game I’ve ever played, I wont lie.
Like it’s one thing if a game is hard as balls, but this game physically hurts to play.
It’s not even a matter of frustration or anything like that.
All I have to do is look at the game board, and then my head starts to pound.
No game I have ever played before has had me slam my head down on my desk after winning because winning means I don’t have to torture myself anymore …until my brain decides that starting a new run is a good idea, that is.

Human Origin
What is this game? It’s you watching and listening to a guy ramble on and on incoherently about subjects.
How to get achievements? Just load up the game and minimize. Chill out on the web for a couple of hours while achievements slowly roll in.

Pathologic 2
I had a very hard time thinking of what I’d write for Pathologic 2. Despite the fact that there are so many reviews, this one got some attention, and I really appreciate that. I feel compelled to write something because it’s deep into my bones and it’s not showing any sign of leaving. It just feels like it deserves a review. Having gone through it now multiple times, I can honestly say it’s become one of my favorite games and that’s against a lifetime wasting time on them.
First and foremost, is this a horror game and if you don’t like horror games will this be too intense? The first answer is “kinda” and the second answer is “no”. It’s a horror game in that the tone and mood are quite dark and the general feeling of the game is eerie. There are certainly spooky things you’re going to experience here and there. Is there lots of gore, jumpscares or terribly intense horror movie moments? No, not really, and if you can get through the average episode of the original Twilight Zone then you’re brave enough for Pathologic 2. Tension is there, fear is often present, but it’s the kind of fear and tension that is trying to teach you something, not just give you nightmares. I recommend wearing headphones when you play to get the full experience of the atmosphere, or taking them off if you are feeling yourself getting too creeped out.

I would rate this game 9/10, but it may not be a 9 for everyone. Let me over-explain.
Pathologic 2 is a bit of a mash up of a survival game and plague doctor simulator. The game is both a remake and a sequel of the original Pathologic that was released in 2005. You don’t need to play the original game as it references the original as having happened, but retells the story with big alterations and new plot points. The original game had three characters you could play with different views of the story, but this one only has the Haruspex at the moment. However, even just this one route will give you a full, complete game with an average of 30+ hours of gameplay. The developers are planning to eventually release the other two routes in the future, budget willing. This game was made with the idea that a game doesn’t always have to be fun, sometimes a game can stretch you out and make you question what it’s asking you to do. You will get stressed, you will get frustrated, and you will start to doubt whether you can even do everything the game is asking you to do, but that’s the point. It will take well known tropes and rules of gaming and break them in an attempt to break you. It tries to make you feel as if you’ve actually gone through the experience of trying to save a town from a disease and how crushing, frustrating, and heartbreaking it can be to try to do that. This in turn makes the joy from the moments when things go right that much sweeter.

The Niflhel Day
“The Niflhel Day” is a visual novel in which you will have a night walk through the forest. It would seem that what can go wrong? Unless, of course, you are going on a journey on a summer northern night, when the border between the real world and navya, the world of the dead, is as thin as ever. Who can you believe when it seems that you are lost and you will never get out of the forest of your own doubts? But even more importantly – is it worth believing yourself in this situation? Take a closer look at your feet, decide who your friends are, make a choice and, perhaps, you will see the dawn.
In this fascinating and mysterious adventure, you are waiting for:
-
seven different endings
-
atmospheric illustrations that immerse you in the heart of the night misty forest
-
interactive elements – this is a novel that you need not only to read!
-
the plot is based on Slavic folk folklore
-
… and a cat!
Krakatoa
EDIT: Alright so I just replayed this game TWICE and have to say the majority of all my problems were completely fixed.
I found about 2 new bugs, neither of which were game breaking and I don’t doubt the Dev will fix it as he does really care about this game.
Give this game a shot, it’s well worth it and if I can beat it before the update and twice after so can you.
LOVE THIS GAME, Try it now! I’ll add a link to my new playthrough when I get it uploaded soon.
New Playthrough as promised:

I love this game although at moments it touched a rage nerve lol. But it is great! Good atmosphere but the one thing I will touch on is the fact when you die it sends you back to the start which is really frustrating for me and probably others. But all in all a great game:) Check my playthrough and I got the bad ending so must get the good ending now:) Well doen Dev..I look forward to your next game:)
