Russian Subway Dogs
8/10: Russian Subway Dogs is a fun, silly arcade game of barking, snatching food out of the air, and surviving the hazards of the Russian subway like bears and chocolate bars. MOLODETS!
Russian Subway Dogs is based on a true, real-life occurrence of stray dogs in Russia using the subways to commute into the city in order to find better food, the commuting back to the suburbs for safer places to sleep. Choose from a collection of referential dogs and cats and get to filling your belly with shawarma and burgers before the other dogs and animals.

Oh c’mon this is a fantastic arcade game with a ton of charm and meat-on-the-bone. Yeah, the price is off-putting at first, but I assure you this is top quality stuff. There is a solid campaign mode that helps you learn the ropes in steps. There is an endless mode complete with Steam Leaderboards. And lots of awesome unlockable characters that are largely cameos from other indie games. It’s surprising how much great diversity they crammed in here. Finally, the pixel art and music couldn’t be better.

Wobbledogs
I don’t write reviews often, but this game is fantastic and I hope it gains more attention. I saw someone create an animation about this game, and I’m so glad I decided to check the game out. It’s simple but very calming and fun. Not to mention, it’s being updated pretty often. Also worth noting that the community in the discord server is very kind, willing to help out on anyone struggling to get achievements, and answer questions.

Dogs Organized Neatly
Dogs Organized Neatly is another lovely drawn casual puzzle game from DU&I.
Definite Recommend to anyone that enjoys puzzle games and also cute graphics. Just like the first it gave enough challenge to keep me interested and satisfied without feeling trolled by an unobtainable level. But it is fully guided if you don’t want to play the game and just get the super cute dog achievements for your profile showcases.
Gameplay:
You are filling a board with various sized and shaped dogs which are unlocked from progression which increases the difficulty as you progress through the levels. It reminded me of Tetris but without the pesky time pressure since you can see all your dogs (shapes) at the start and move/rotate them until you get them all organized neatly in the grid.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel
Finally after a long road this game saw the light of day and I was more than eager to put hands on it.
Despite the number of hours clocked in I have not finished it as I actually been redoing the game a few times to measure replayability as well as how better/worse I could do, but from what I experienced so far, I’m holding my vote positive.
It is however not a game without its flaws, if things that can be fixed to an extend, so lets break it down.
The definitely good:
- Graphics/Artstyle
I am utterly in love with the detailed artwork pieces that are shown all over the game, and I feel that everything else helps build up a style that’s very uniform across the board and that’s even including the 3D models used for the characters during intermission/exploration. There’s certainly artistic liberty in some departments namely the mechanical designs, but I was already expecting some of the silliness coming in and I was not looking for much else here, so there’s definitely plenty of value.

Right. Where to begin with this one. Be warned, this is less an objective review and more a personal retrospective, and there will be prologue spoilers. I don’t usually “review” games and am only giving this one attention as I feel it has the makings of a sleeper hit that hardcore fans will be trying to convince people to play. Like its predecessors, it hit shelves with absolutely no fanfare. Just seeing how few reviews games like this one gets shows how criminally underrated these hidden gems are.

Howloween Hero
Full play through 100% achievements w/ time stamps here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAFtZ4pMPIc7shdAdPV6Sgy_dHTUJGkCb
Overall I think the game is good I’m not sure it’s long enough or has enough to do to be worth 5.99, but it’s a cute game that kids could enjoy it’s pretty simple.
EDIT: The creator was super responsive and fixed every complaint I had about the game it’s short, but for the price of $5.99 it felt worth it.

An absolutely adorable Halloween romp through a quirky neighborhood full of people that dump gallons of candy into the bucket of a dog they think is a human. Well worth the price of admission! The developers have ironed out some minor issues too.
Be wary of Frankenstein. He’s a little Psy-cho.

Montaro RE
With over 550 hours of playing Montaro, I consider myself an epicurean of the doge jumping genre but unlike this review, the devs are actually listening and fixing things up. Woo Hoo.
1. The banana rolling time seems random sometimes even cumulative. (Original was completely predictable).
[Edit: cumulative bananas still appear to be cumulative.]
2. Pantsu can ONLY be gathered on the up jump. Can’t be gathered from a banana up jump but can be gathered if you up jump on a warning kate. (Original gathered up, down and on a banana jump with well timed click).
– Real player with 35.8 hrs in game
Not as good as the original. Yes, it’s a lot prettier and has more variety in location– but the incentive to collect pantsu is virtually nonexistent. There is no pantsu bar, and the motivation to keep going doesn’t really seem to have been implemented.
Where’s the difficulty? Where’s the heart?
What purpose does Montaro have if not to rush through Japanese streets and look cute while taking upskirt peeks?
There’s also no steam icons or cards to collect, which I find to be weird, since the original had them.

Disobedient Sheep
This game is completely mad and great fun in local multiplayer, especially with my young kids - it’s simple enough for them to enjoy and doesn’t really matter if you play it well or not. It becomes complete mayhem with several dangerous items appearing or about to appear as you try to guide or bark the sheep away from danger! The different play modes are fun, the visuals are bright and appealing, the music suitably frenetic and some cheesy voice acting is a nice addition.
Since the last update controller support has greatly improved, and having 3 or 4 players madly scrambling around trying to keep the sheep safe is a blast. I thoroughly recommend Disobedient Sheep to anyone who has a few people in the house who want to play a game together, especially if some of them are young children.

Disobedient Sheep is a couch-multiplayer party game with a heavy survival emphasis.
That it, the survival of some super-cute balls of wool that cannot, without your help, avoid the many genuine and lifelike hazards that come with being a sheep in today’s modern times. Ominously slow rolling boulders, falling anvils and anchors, bombs and of course the shepherd staple dynamite all await your precarious flock.
You play as a sheepdog, of which there are several cuddly variants, darting around the map for a time period dying to bark and generally hustle your sheep out of the way of these deadly obstacles. Your sheep act realistically, and group together in small flocks, but occasionally freak out at their impending existential nightmare and scurry off, making this challenge much harder than it sounds. As time goes on more and more dangers are thrown your way, making the final few seconds quite chaotic.

Kili’s treasure
Game is fun and the history felt to close to home. Will be following new projects
– Real player with 7.7 hrs in game
kili’s treasure finds our young hero going on a treasure hunt her mom organized to make kili feel better after losing her dog, rosco.
it’s an isometric point & click where you walk around the family’s house (starting in your bedroom, with 5 more rooms opening up as you progress), inspecting and interacting with many items, trying to put the story together and figure out what mom’s clues refer to.

METAL DOGS
Someone made a game based on the comic “We 3” and that makes me so happy 3
EDIT: If you like games that you can grind at and listen to podcasts atst, this is a great addition to that kind of game, much like Book of Demons.
– Real player with 20.6 hrs in game
Currently this game is fun for about 10-20 mins. I love the concept and almost Diablo II like gameplay in portions of it and it has potential to be quite good… but a lot of work is needed to make this a game worth $30.
I would say in the games current state it feels like a $5 game that you could spend an hour or 2 enjoying before you put it down and walk away from it forever.
Lots of issues with this game (most of which I would overlook if it was multiplayer…. but it’s not)
PROS:
- Game has potential to be an awesome game of dodging and timing attacks and customizing weapons
