I really enjoyed Trials and Traces: The Tomb of Thomas Tew, an earlier game by this developer, Because Because. It’s not available on Steam as of the writing of this review, but it is available over on itch.io. It was a nice little gem within a collection of other independent adventure games, with turned out to be a great purchase, because it put games like Death Has a Million Stomping Boots and Beard in the Mirror on my radar.
When Because Because released Detective Boiled-Hard, I jumped on it right away. This game is a bit on the shorter side, clocking in at about 90 minutes of play – but it’s a solid and enjoyable (and fully voice-acted!) 90 minutes. Detective Boiled-Hard never once pretends to be a serious game of any sort. It fully embraces bad jokes, self-referential humor, so-bad-they’re-amazing celebrity impersonations, and insane situations.

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.

TeleNovela
A fill-in-the-blanks Visual Novel with 11 achievements. Lots of game abuse potential, don’t waste it.
Great fun playing by yourself, but even better with a group either as helpers or just an audience to your artistic genius. Attempting to play this seriously is prohibited by law. There is a requirement to fit in as many double entendres as possible. Mixing languages and making people use Google Translate earns you double points. There are no points.

In TeleNovela you get the chance to produce your own TV soap opera. How is that possible? Well this is basically a fill in the blanks story where you can write your own names for the characters and define some other stuff. That is a really well known concept in its own and something most of you at least did when they were young, however I havent seen a single VN in that specific format which made this a nice diversion from the norm. I can only recommend to try to put in as funny options as you can think of cause I really had to laugh at the outcome at one point. Apart from that this is a pretty typical soap opera story you will regularly find on tv. You also get to play detective in the end, at least a little bit :).

Alien Function
Fun game with great story line and good puzzles ranging from easy to very challenging. Very very linear but the story line was engaging enough to want to keep on the ride. Really brought me back to the experiences i had playing Kings Quest, Police Quest, etc series way back in the day (showing my age now).

no hints, this game is bad.
i really wanted to see the end of this, but it’s just a ‘‘click everything until something works’’
also, the only alien you will see is on the title screen.

Tales of the Neon Sea
Tales of The Neon Sea-Exciting domestic Chinese style cyberpunk game.
Leave a comment on my favorite game is my tribute to this game.
In the thought of many people, cyberpunk-style games should have several characteristics: a huge world view, a huge map, and a thought-provoking ending. And this game changed my opinion.
The ethereal worldview casts an invisible shadow on the cyberpunk style. Although there are many background books and texts in the game, they focus on introducing the background of the main task of the game itself, and avoid discussing the background of cyberpunk. In my opinion, this is really the finishing touch of this game. The game brings players who are on the main storyline into a real cyberpunk and Chinese-style atmosphere through a good drawing style, which not only allows players to see the punk style of the future city in the rich plot, but also allows the tragedy mainline process Of players get a touch of comfort and a sense of belonging.

Piposh
אני שמח לראות שהקסם של המשחק נשמר. יש שאולי היו רוצים להיות יותר דמויות מהמשחקים הקודמים, אולי עוד ימים, אך לדעתי המשחק הזה פשוט משאיר טעם לעוד! וזה חיובי לדעתי. לא יודע אם מתוכנן משחק נוסף בעתיד אך בינתיים אפשר להסתפק בזה. לפחות ככה אני חושב, בתור אחד ששיחק ברוב המשחקים וסיים אותם (חוץ מהתלת מימד שלא סיימית) אני מוצא את המשחק הזה כמבדר וההומור לא שונה כלל. נפלא! כי יש דברים שלא צריכים להשתנות. וכן- וידוי- אני מאלה שהיו שמחים ליותר משלוש ימים ליהנות מהקסם הזה. אך כמו שאמרתי מצד שני הוא מספיק טוב בשביל שלא אבכה על זה. בסופו של יום מדובר במשחק שעשו מאמצים להוציא עם בעיות תקציב בדרך ומה שיצא, התוצאה הסופית, מספקת מאוד. לא מובן מאליו! תודה אבה שהחזרתם את פיפוש אלינו. התגעגענו.

אחד ממשחקי פוינט אנד קליק הכי טובים שיש.
עשרים שנה אחרי המשחק הקודם - פיפוש חוזר! מעודכן וטוב יותר מבעבר!
רואים את ההשקעה של היוצרים, המשחק עצמו מהנה מאוד, אפשרויות הבחירה וההחלטות שמשפיעות על המשחק אדירות,
קאסט אדיר (אילן גנני!) ואיך לא, החוצפה הישראלית הרגילה!
משחק מעולה.. מעריצים לא יתאכזבו ושחקנים חדשים יהנו ממשחק מעולה בעברית
One of the best point and click games there is.
20 years since the last game - Piposh is back! updated and better than ever!
You can see all the time and efforts the creators did on this title.

Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards: Reloaded
85 / 100
First thing to appreciate with Leisure Suit Larry (LSL) is that it is a game that originally was created in 1987! The gameplay in this ‘Reloaded’ version is essentially the same, with updated graphics, interface & full voice/audio support.
Being from an earlier generation, the gameplay can feel basic by modern standards and there is no real direction from a story perspective to guide you either. You only know that you need to guide Larry (the 40yr old virgin) to find love. With limited guidance, the ability to visit any of the locations in any order & a lot of abstract puzzles to solve LSL can leave you scratching your head for long periods.
