Demon Cycle
This is one of the few gems that comes out each year. I came in to it with no expectations and ended up spending my next 6+ hours killing demons. I enjoyed every minute. Get this game.

It’s true, I like anime……………………. tho my story didn’t start like any other I was plopped into existence not knowing my purpose? what was I made for? who was my inventor and what did they design me for? questions but no one to answer them. a deafening murmur which only felt like static keeping my question company. the silence was only but a cold and bitter reminder that one day, ill become a flying anime pillow who sores throughout the starts delivering steaming cold cocoa. …………………….its true this game is pretty cool you should buy it :)

Desolation Tycoon
The world has ended, but life moves on. Your home is a wasteland scoured by winds blowing in from a caustic sea. Most large mammals are extinct, and insects have filled their roles.
You are a merchant traveling this land in search of profit. Each character you play starts with a randomly generated history and traits. And eventually, each character’s career will come to an end — whether through successful retirement or tragic death.
The game remembers everything you do, and the world is persistent across characters. As a consequence of your actions, civilization will slowly grow and rebuild. Accomplishments accrued across any number of characters will unlock new cities, new crew units, new challenges, and so on.
There is no fixed storyline. Instead, you have a setting, a set of gameplay mechanics, and complete freedom to do with that what you will.
Core features:
-
Travel, trade, and defend your cargo from dangers.
-
Improve your skills through usage.
-
Find and explore places that are worth plundering.
-
Build relationships with city notables, and co-operate with them on various schemes.
-
Rebuild a persistent world across multiple lifetimes.
-
Make trade-offs in encounters that are purely decision-driven, and avoid grindy minigames.
-
Enjoy a high-information user interface that doesn’t ask you to remember things unnecessarily.
Example challenges:
-
Local climate calamities.
-
Giant insects, bandits, and much worse.
-
Each character will automatically retire if they live long enough; this does not leave enough time to develop all possible skills.
-
Networks of supply and demand are randomized between playthroughs.
-
You can’t stay in a trade route rut, because trading with the same cities too much will make it less profitable.
-
You and your crew can become injured or sick — and possibly die as a result.
-
The locals that you trade and scheme with have minds of their own, and may betray you.
-
Performance-enhancing symbiotes may seem like a great idea, but can lead to unfortunate side-effects.
-
Oh, and there are also demons. They complicate everything.
This is not an action-oriented game. Time doesn’t pass unless you’re doing something, and there are no real-time challenges. Instead, gameplay is strictly about the making of intelligent trade-offs in an open-world setting with many potential courses of action.

Western Sigil
Western Sigil is a tower defense game in which you take on the role of the sheriff’s son, tasked with maintaining peace in the town of Wadeville. Idyll will not last too long since a dangerous plague has broken into the city walls and your mission is to find its source and stop the rot from spreading.
NOTHING UNITES HUMANS LIKE A COMMON ENEMY
Recruit cowboys, Indians, National Guard soldiers, Mexicans or even bandits - everyone, regardless of their political views, wants the end of the ugly plague.
Or Do they?
BE SMART
Strategically deploy your forces on the map and set up turrets. Hire new members and gain experience to develop your units. Throw away their rusty guns and gear them up with new weapons to make your team even more powerful. Set ambushes to weaken your foes and find out who’s the cause of the overwhelming havoc.
APPROACH BEASTS OF ALL POSSIBLE LEGENDS AND TALES
Fight orcs, demons, skeletons, goblins, trolls, forest creatures and even animals like wolves or bears. The variety of monsters you will encounter in-game is a good material for a separate bestiary book, a weird one, that is.
FEELS LIKE A MAGIC
The task is made difficult by the fact that there was some kind of strange magic involved in all this. To remove the unfortunate spell, you must find all the mysterious sigils and close the portal leading to another dimension, the very home of awful creatures disrupting the peace in Wadeville.
FEATURES:
-
Protect your lands in this unique tower defense & resource management game sprinkled with a spicy pinch of strategy.
-
Get in the ranks with cowboys, Indians, soldiers, local Mexicans or bandits.
-
Distribute the units on the map properly - their location determines their strength.
-
Hire new members to boost your performance on the battlefield.
-
Gain experience and develop your units by equipping them with new, shiny weapons.
-
Set ambushes and place standard and premium turrets to protect every single acre of Wadeville.

DNA Farm
Very interesting game, the description says it all, clearly…but it runs well and feels fun! I keep saying it in these reviews, but I mean it…the price is a little too steep..this could be fun for a lot of people but…if they won’t spend 11 bucks, maybe the won’t see how good it is, anyways..just my thoughts. Not a bad game at all!

Exorcised
One of the best TD games I played for sure!
It’s easy going, it has elements I’ve never seen in any other TD game (like the genius alliances), gives the game a whole new meaning and fun, I also love the upgrades in and out of the levels, the whole theme is fun, the characters (towers) and their looks are awesome, I simply love it.
Hope you guys are planning to keep updating the game with more towers, powers ups and such!

Exorcised is a newly released Tower Defense game.
The game is set in a Japanese fantasy world, with many versions of Japanese females clothed in cultural Japanese style as the towers, and with demons as the enemies, no story or known plot in the game, so lets move on.
The game is pretty straight forward, like many other Tower Defense games, the enemy move on a fixed path from one side to the other and you, as the player, need to place those sexy female towers to eliminate them.
There are several kinds of towers, each with somewhat different stats and characteristics which could be upgraded later on, and some different enemy types and bosses.

Progress Game
I love this game. People are forgetting that this is still super new and wont have a lot of content. I am sitting at 90 hours on the game so far and love hitting those high numbers. To the reset complaints, I mean it only takes like 2 hours to get back to the max anyway so its not worth the stress over that. Also resets are common in alphas and betas and these children new to gaming don’t seem to understand that.
EDIT- I have hit a wall on floor 1318 of the infinite dungeon that after I beat the enemy whos health bar does not budge until death my game crashes. I however have fixed this by just going somewhere else on the map. Can’t wait for more!

As of writing this review I am level 842 and have played for ~38.2 hours.
Progress game is a game about.. Well, progressing. You kill enemies to craft better gear so that you can kill even stronger enemies. You get points which you use to update various different stats & much more. There’s currently 7 different zones to explore and conquer.
You can play through the “main game” in about 2-6 hours but if you still desire more there’s a zone with infinite amount of enemies for you to slay!
You might think Progress Game lacks content, but you have to remember there’s only 1 developer working on it, and for free!

Flicker of Hope
I really wish I could recommend this game. There are some very interesting aspects to this game that I’ve never seen before. Unfortunately, however, the gameplay is just too poor to recommend.
First the good: So, the first thing you’ll notice is that the main character design is absolutely adorable and beautifully representative of the themes of light, hope, etc. that is visually expressed throughout Wick. Additionally, the way that Wick and the candles that he lights are the only light in the map (and how the light changes as you sneak and run) and the idea of the light being what leads Sister Mara to you is gorgeous and elegant (and can only really be expressed in the form of a video-game). Finally, the method by which Jean Wick revives is by possessing one of the candles that he’s lighted, which once again is beautifully representative of the the theme and story of spreading light around the cathedral.

Pros and cons are down below) Check out the gameplay here (the game is the 1st there):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUU8y9NG5sA
Advantages:
1. A very cool stylee! It’s so adorable but terrifying at the same time! Reminded me A LOT of Little Nightmares. Such a great job on this one!
2. I absolutely loved how the story is unravelled through the environment! Game mechanics are also fascinating, I never ever played as a candle! I think the whole concept was amazing!
3. The game was terrifying! I loved it! It’s so cool! I didn’t expect that I will produce high pitched screams playing this at all!

Harmless Demons
1 creature, bug where the mushroom house doesn’t go away when deconstructed (giving infinite research). I thought there would be more to it.

Really cool!! These creatures are super interesting and they make you play with curiosity.

Alchemy Emporium
This title has certainly a peculiar approach to what makes a game, it feels like a dive in deep water. While the statistics are explained in the beginning and each section has a tutorial, the true nature of the experience is concealed, to be discovered as the player advances.
Cons
✗ Incomplete translation, with some text left in Italian.
✗ Extremely mind-numbing, the progress does not grant any actual satisfaction.
✗ In-game annotations aren’t practical.
✗ The tutorial button is positioned right beside the “next activity” button.

As it stand it needs work but as the potential to be a great game.
When you start up the game, there is some selections that come with perks. As of right now you have no way of telling what the perk does besides judging the name of the perk. As a new player, it can be even harder as you don’t know the game mechanics so it’s even harder to choose.
How you view the formulas needs changing. There are only two columns that you can view, but you can easily see five columns on the screen. You should also be able to filter the view for game play reasons. For instance, I noticed that a lot of my customers are asking for potions for being an actor, I should be able to narrow the formulas to see what I have already created.

Kings of Israel
Great PC adaptation of the board game. Set up works for multiple players only if sharing the same device; play can be split between two players (1 prophet per player) from what I can tell. So far I’ve only played solo. Love the Bible study/trivia option!
EDIT: On the standard play mode, I have now reached level 5 (Saul), which increases the number of prophets involved to three. I personally take about 20-30 minutes per game (unless I lose in the first ten). Based on the settings available for the Custom game option, it looks like there may be as many as four prophets in play at once. In Custom mode, you can also choose which prophets are in play, whereas the standard play-by-ranking mode assigns prophets at random. Definitely recommend playing in Custom or Bible Study mode if you don’t want to affect your level ranking status! Bible Study mode provides both good and bad consequences to your multiple-choice response, making it worth cracking open your Bible (or clicking the online Bible links provided) for the right answer. Highly recommended to you if you like turn-based games, strategy, and fun ways to engage with the Holy Bible!

From a secular perspective, it really depends on what you are looking for in a game. This game is rich in its representation of historical content, if you accept that it is based entirely on the Bible. It makes extensive use of RNG, which I understand is not popular among many gamers, but is a very appropriate way to represent human behavior. Not that it is random per-se, but in life humans will often either surprise you, or at the very least the number of things they might do is so varied that trying to make a specific prediction in a moral-political context is not likely going to be accurate. It really feels appropriate to have so much RNG in this context, but there is a little you can do to maximize your output. In short, this game uses mechanics that are generally not very popular, but in a highly appropriate manner for the subject matter.
