Blood Bowl 3
Put on your cleats, buckle on your helmet, adjust your shoulder pads and breast plate… and (discreetly) tuck a sharp dagger into your belt.
War disappeared in the Old World when the inhabitants decided to resolve their differences by playing the god Nuffle’s sacred sport: Blood Bowl. And yet it is no less bloody than the battlefields it has replaced. Murder, mutilation, cheating, corruption, sorcery and even divine intervention come one after another on the pitch, to the delight of everyone watching!
-
Merciless, not brainless – Take charge of a team from amongst the 12 available races, each with unique characteristics, and stop your opponents from advancing by carefully positioning your players. Dodge or mercilessly eliminate whoever gets in your way and reach the end zone to score the decisive touchdown! Naturally, the best strategists should have an edge, but… who knows? A rampaging troll might eat a teammate and change the course of a match.
-
You’re the boss – Create your team, recruit your players, customize their appearance, emblems and armour, recruit cheerleaders and a coach, then take part in the most ferocious competitions in the Old World. But beware: injuries are commonplace, and it’s more than likely that some of your players will be carried off the field in a body bag, bringing a definitive end to a once-promising career…

I only got this game because I grew up doing puzzles and I like fantasy art. The art is typical female-based fantasy art and the pictures are nice. There are 20 different pictures. They follow the D&D and fantasy art concept that less armor is more when it comes to female characters.
To complete the 100 achievements, you have to do each puzzle 5 times. Each puzzle has 12, 24, 48, 96, and 192 pieces. Obviously, the fewer piece options are very easy. The 96 and 192 piece options take longer. Some of the 192 piece puzzles took me between 20-30 minutes. There is a hint option, but I didn’t use it other than to see what it was. You can also save the puzzle that you are working on and go back to it.

Dark Fantasy 2: Jigsaw Puzzle
tl;dr: puzzle game to calm down after a stressful day. Can be played one-handed, but this audience is better served elsewhere. This is art, not some cheap manga stuff. @Devs: waiting for Dark Fantasy 3, 4, 5 and counting, will definitely buy them too!
Long version: Relaxing puzzle game, second installment, which is better in any aspect than its predecessor. You can play 24 aesthetic fantasy images which are of high and consistent quality and you can split it into more pieces to increase the difficulty.

If you like puzzles and you liked the first game, you should like this one. If you are a puzzle traditionalist, go buy a real, physical, tabletop puzzle since you might not like the fact that you can’t rotate pieces or put pieces together outside the main puzzle itself. However, being able to rotate pieces would also make the puzzle much more difficult for a number of reasons.
My only complaints are the same as the first game. The boards and some areas of the puzzles can be very dark, making it hard to even see if a piece is missing. And you can still just move pieces all over the board until they finally find a home.

Armello
I always come back to this game when I have time on my hands, and I’m itching for a good dice/card game. Which this game has both! I love that no matter wwhich character you use, there is always a chance to win. dlc characters are less ‘pay to win’ and more of exploring different playstyles over multiple games. there are some very pretty dice that’re so satisfying to hear/use in game.

I recommend the game but I have to put a negative review because the multiplayer doesn’t allow users to reconnect once we get disconnected for a few seconds. Therefore if we have connection issues for a few seconds. we loose our games, can’t move the character. Such a shame.

Hell’s Gate - Slide Puzzle
Hell’s Gate makes you FEEL like Jeffrey Dahmer.
From the wailing of lost souls condemned to endless torture in the depths of Tartarus, to the occult and bizarre imagery plastered onto the puzzle pieces; This game really lets you immerse yourself and walk in the shoes of a deranged madman that will go to any means necessary to keep playing his sick and disturbed game!
Here’s the Keyes! Knock yourself out!

Bestiary of Sigillum
It’s a decent game, but with two major flaws at the moment.
1. Small community. You could be waiting an opponent for 10-15 minutes to no avail.
2. “Out of sync” bug in Custom mode. I tried to play with my friend two month ago. We managed to play one game out of three without the bug. Sure, there is some fun in playing two different games at once, but only the first time.
Though I doubt that anything can be done with the first problem in the near future, I hope the developers at least fix the second one. So the thumb up is not to the game at its current state, but to the game it might become if devs at least fix Custom mode and add AI mode.

So far pretty fun! Trying to counter your apponent makes the game pretty interesting. However, when my brother and I play against eachother on seperate PCs we sometimes get this problem where we are playing different games kind of. It’s like the game is not tracking our moves and displaying them correctly on the others PC. So, I will see my borthers moves one way that is contrary to how my brother actually moved his characters. Besides that great game!

Heroes of Zaruban
This is an adaptation of a board game for two players.
The game takes place on one playing field. In turn with the enemy, you make moves with your cards or use objects. To win the game, you need to destroy the main card (Place of Power) of the enemy. There are no pre-prepared decks here - all cards and items are selected in turn from the general list. Already at the stage of choosing and placing cards, you can get a significant advantage over the enemy by blocking or taking the cards he needs.
All cards in the game (Heroes and Places of Power) have basic characteristics (attack, defense, health) and 2-3 unique skills. Items play a supporting role. They can both enhance the basic parameters of your cards, and inflict direct damage to enemy cards.
For a comfortable game, it is better to start playing with a friend, gradually learning the abilities of different cards and objects, their strengths and weaknesses. There are currently 35 Hero cards in the game, 6 Power Place cards and about 50 items.
Kingslayer: The First Assassin
The graphics are very simple and the guitar music is pleasant.
The puzzles surprised me, they are really interesting and smart. I liked this game.
The option to download the music is welcome, the on-screen menu is intuitive, clean and works well.
The level selection is very good.
Extreme simplicity in everything, but it fulfills what is proposed.

A simple and yet very fun puzzle game! The medieval atmosphere sets the mood with a clean minimalistic design. Recommended for the puzzle lovers!

Aeon’s End
If you want to try out Aeons End, or really prefer to play games digitally, it’s pretty good but brief. If you have all the physical base sets, expansions, and so forth, I don’t think you’ll be getting rid of them anytime soon for this (unlike, say, how Sentinels of the Multiverse is so good on digital that I’ll never play the physical edition again).
I won’t comment on game play and such, but there’s a decent tutorial that goes over most concepts (while letting players discover the synergies of the game themselves). There’s also currently no multiplayer for those who demand it (I suspect it’s in the works though), nor AI players either; one player controls all the mages' actions (although you could potentially do “pass and play” gaming). It’s a non-issue to me, but a determining factor for others.

My Biases: I backed this on kickstarter not because I have played the physical game but because I really like the developer and the game seemed to be very fun if their streams were any indication. I really enjoy the game from what I have done so far.
Aeon’s end is a cooperative deck builder game where up to 4 mages try to beat back monsters that seek to destroy humanity. The game is an uphill battle but certainly winnable. There are many ways to approach the battles and lots of variability depending on the mages and supply cards you use.
