AR-K: The Great Escape
After playing the first 2 episodes I can safely say that this is the best episode so far!!! The developers certainly improved the game quality in both ways: technically and direction-wise. The following points sums up the following:
Pros:
-
Gameplay quality much improved from first 2 episodes
-
Puzzles more interesting
-
Protagonist given more depth in character
-
Story development much more natural
-
Render quality improved
-
This episode is much more bug free than previous 2 episodes

It’s great when you come to a game and it’s a lot better than you thought it would be. While I enjoyed ar-k 1 and 2 and I do recommend those games to play first, this for me is a lot better - story, graphics, setting. The writing was very good and if you didn’t want to read everything, you didn’t need to click on that character’s bit of conversation but could come back to it if you wanted. I liked the humour, and it was witty in parts. It is the perfect balance of not just a good story which is vital in an adventure game but also good interactive gameplay.

SPOOKWARE
Absolutely adored this game.
There were a few minigames that I either had difficultly figuring out what I was doing wrong (and still to some degree don’t know what I was doing incorrectly) or the controls right when you start a new one. They aren’t always clear cut, at least to me, on what you were supposed to do. However, that’s something that’s easy to overlook as you can retry them over and over; through that point in the story by restarting that minigame marathon or talking to the person again and given another chance.

Do you want to play a party game without breaking friendships? Then mealmates is for you. This sequel is a direct upgrade from the first game, where you can do more than just spoil your mealmate, play minigames and give him away to be eaten. You can customize your mealmate with clothes you can find in the “neighbourhood”, cook recipes which can later be bought in the shops and unlock things by completing achievements.
The replayability is GOLD, the music is GOLD, the game itself is just GOLD.
Worth the money. Some day I will invite my friends to give this a try.

Cardboard Ground
The humour kept me hooked. I found myself repeatedly talking to the same characters to see what would happen.
I got addicted to some of the mini games which definitely side tracked me from the main story. Took me 18 hours to complete. Some of the puzzles can be difficult so just remember if you get stuck that I’m smarter than you.

Be on the watch for a cannibal as you traverse the naked city of Offbay.
It’ll make you cry, it’ll make you laugh, it’ll make you fling fecal matter at other men without remorse or dignity.
It’s a puzzle platformer with a brand of dark humour and wit that encapsulates the off colour world of Cardboard Ground.
Built from the ground up from sole developer Matt Close; this debut game will make you question your friends about this new game maker, asking:
H A V E Y O U S E E N T H I S M A N?

You Are Not a Banana: Better Edition
Introduction
You Are Not A Banana is a pixel styled adventure/puzzle game set it everyday life. The big reason I liked this game is because of the humor and the really cool soundtrack. The basis of You Are Not A Banana is you follow a man as he goes through a day. Weird and odd things happen, and plenty of little puzzles are present throughout the game. You Are Not A Banana is very short, but the price tag of $2 is reasonable for the time. There is controller support, but the game doesn’t have different icons for the buttons in game. This game is very quirky and is not for everyone, but it is definitely worth a look at.

Grottesco Absurdus
I expected this game to be a bizarre, surreal or funny experience. I play a l lot of games so short games wouldn’t have bothered me, but that wasn’t the issue. It was just not that fun.
Most of the gameplays are just trial and error and most of them involves just clicking stuff at the right timing.
The gameplay itself isn’t that much fun, and it is actually very short while the ride isn’t rich.
The most “mechanical” minigame is one where you click ‘n drag a character to dodge bullets. You need to survive for the score of 100 in order to consider it beaten. One game update claims it has been fixed to be possible, but it was still very difficult and unfun. The problem with it is how random it was, so you were basically depending on luck. You cannot respond fast enough as your character is slow and mildly unresponsive.

This is a fun little game consisting of weird mini games where you have to discover the rules of each mini game yourself. It took me a bit longer than what I initially thought it should, as all the achievements are missable, therefore I suggest you use a guide to unlock the achievements, as if you look for them yourself it will take quite a while to complete.
I am a big fan of these types of games and I have played all the games from this specific developer and I loved all of the games. I recommend that you guys play this game and if you liked it, then get some of the other games from this developer. Most of the games are short, but definitely worth it.

A=B
Good programming game. The concept is very simple, but the problems are complex and challenging, and with all keywords “a=b” language is actually Turing-complete, so this is fun.
– Real player with 18.9 hrs in game
I haven’t played much of the game, but I’ve beaten chapters 1 and (almost) 2, and it seems quite fun. However, you should be aware that the game doesn’t strictly stick to having A=B be the only instruction - but so far the extra mechanics seem scaled back enough that it’s still true to the spirit of the idea.
Despite that, I’m enjoying my time with the game a lot. It encourages you to think outside the box and the restricted instruction sets make it very interesting to solve problems. I do wish the main menu was a bit more inviting (give some sort of indicator of where to click first perhaps?) as it does drop you in with little fanfare, but overall I’d say it’s a good purchase at the modest price tag it has right now. Very cool and fun concept :)

Bolt Riley, A Reggae Adventure
It would be in my best interest to give a glowing review since I want to see this game completed but I need to be honest about the progress made so far. I do realise this game is considered Early Access and I know the budget for this game is pretty small, and you should keep that in mind too (if you end up reading the in-depth review linked below), but ultimately, is it something I would recommend to my friends or the gaming public in its current state? Considering the artwork still needs some touching up, bugs were encountered way too frequently, the UI needs fixing and the first chapter is way too short, probably not. I’m hoping that Adventure Mob will eventually prove me wrong though, as I really want this game to succeed.

Bolt Riley is a well-intentioned but uniformly misguided proof of concept.
Presumably the developers naively underestimated the effort required to achieve the level of quality best suited to their vision. Instead, they opted to release an embarrassingly short and painfully butchered appetizer.
One should be easily inclined to forgive unrefined details in Early Access but no update in over a year severely burdens the game’s credibility.
