Forgiveness : Escape Room

Forgiveness : Escape Room

I played this when it first came out and just recently revisited Forgiveness. It is a well done ‘escape the room’ game with 7 distinctly separate locations to solve and exit. Each room is assigned to one of the Seven Deadly Sins. In some cases, I saw the relationship between the room and the sin but others are a bit obtuse.

Puzzles consist of finding items, decoding passwords, and generally looking at conceptual clues to puzzle your way through the exit door. Most can be solved if you are willing to look at everything (high and low, under and over).

You wake up dazed! You look around to find yourself alone, locked in a room which appears at first glance to be an infirmary. A voice comes over a speaker and begins talking to you. He claims he is God and that you are there to be judged for your sins. He will continue to explain to you why you’re there and that you do have a chance at redemption if you can pass his test. You are given clues scattered around each room; you must find them to complete the puzzles and pass the challenge. Some clues are visual, some are items you will need to collect and figure out how they fit into the puzzle you need to solve in order to escape. You will examine many items laying around the rooms for hidden clues that are needed to solves the puzzles. Your time is at hand; you have been chosen. Try to find the clues and solve the riddles that lay before you or face the consequences of your sins.

The Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 1

The Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 1

The Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 1 appears to be a game first seen on good ol' Newgrounds, bearing a quite short, yet immersive experience of an old lady (who is not immediately aware of their own death, which appeared to happen in possibly sinister circumstances), following her journey through the void and afterlife in hopes of meeting up with her husband once again, this time with updated visuals.

A rather annoyed, yet very helpful british dragon will assist you as much as he can, being able to be called at any time with a phone-like device that you obtain quite early on.

11/10 would use Transitional Support again.

Short but good game - it only took about an hour for me to complete.

I really enjoyed the funny and unique characters. The voice acting seemed perfect to me and really made this game more enjoyable - reading lots of text can get boring. The pixelelated graphics were simple but effective and the soundtrack was decent.

I would have liked for it to be longer (Episode 2 is going to be much longer though) and felt the last rib puzzle was a bit unfair (I’m pretty bad with music and had to search up a tutorial on how to play Fur Elise).

Azkend 2: The World Beneath

Azkend 2: The World Beneath

It’s not bad; there are many different power-ups that create some variety and strategy in the typical Match 3 game-play loop, so it’s not an awful chore to play.

Ultimately however, RNG plays far too much of a role in success or failure, and while the main game is eventually beatable (after many tries) the coin challenges eventually become all but impossible. If you’re trying for 100% achievement completion, good luck, because as far as I can tell that’s the only way to attain several of them.

Azkend 2 is a causal match 3 -game. The artwork is top notch and the music is alright.

There is a clumsy attempt at a plot, but in the end this whole “spirit of adventure” thing is just a theme that works well with beautiful images. You don’t get an “engaging storyline”. The woman person just ends up shipwrecked and goes to places that don’t make any sense. And the voice acting is kind of annoying.

The story mode constists of 68 levels. There are some nice special pieces and whatnot, but nothing spectacular. Nothing I wouldn’t have seen before. The gameplay gets a little repetitve at the end and sadly the levels are all quite easy. There’s also a time challenge mode, but after I was done with the storymode I thought there wasn’t much replay value.

The Tale of Doris and the Dragon - Episode 2

Highly Anticipated Episode 2 Does Not Disappoint!!

If you liked Episode 1, then you’re going to LOVE this chapter as it continues the story of 2 unlikely friends, Doris and Norb! And if you haven’t played Episode 1, then what are you waiting for?? Hilarious and entertaining characters (although I admit that Norb and Doris continue to be my favorites), great dialogue that had me laughing out loud at times (witty and dripping with sarcasm), fantastic voice actors that make the characters their own, and intriguing music to tie it all together! This story is an absolute gem, and I highly recommend it!! My only complaint is that now, once again, I’m waiting on pins and needles for Episode 3 to find out what happens next to dear old Doris ;)

This is such a great game. The dialog is funny and I really like the dragons' accent and attitude. The puzzles aren’t too difficult, except for one, which got me stuck and was too complicated compared to the rest. I played Episode 1 a couple of years ago, so it was nice that the game had an overview of that at the beginning to remind me what happened. I’m definitely going to buy Episode 3 when it gets published.

Last Room

Last Room

This game has great potential and I liked the puzzles but there are still lots of problems.

First of all the UI is weird and settings are incomplete, you can’t even change you sensitivity.

Some times it’s hard to figure out what each pad does, it would be better to have the camera zoom to the function of the pad the first time we activate it.

And to top it off there are lots of bugs you can’t interact with some objects some times and some things like the key would just disappear sometimes.

The game is not finished yet so I know these issues are gonna be fixed in the near future, I suggest you buy the game and wait until it’s done because it’s very fun it you look past it’s problems.

Level-based puzzler that involves figuring out how to exit each room. This is accomplished primarily with pressure plates and directing light beams. Initially, you start in a dark dungeon and then move outdoors. In the second ‘block’ of levels, a bounce element is added that allows you to hop over walls, moving objects from area to area. I’ve only played a little over an hour but enjoyed figuring out the mechanics of each escape.

Atmosphere is good, the sound track supports an immersive experience, and the controls are easy (although picking up an object requires exact cursor placement).

Like cute cats, like frantic gameplay, like solving puzzles.

This 2D action puzzle game could be just what the wizarding cat in a hat ordered.

Try the demo first, see if you like it.

In early access :

60/200 levels are present. 200 are planned.

Weekly updates as I complete things and add levels and enemy types.

Level editor working and saving allowing you to play custom levels you make. (This is fully functional, but at the moment tuned to mouse not gamepad, gamepad still works but not optimal)

The story was very deep and emotional. I learned about about life and myself by playing it. While the story may not be obvious at first, I hope any that play can come to see how great it is.

The Walsingham Files - Chapter 1

The Walsingham Files - Chapter 1

I love this game. It’s definitely what I want. I enjoy the old 2D pixel game, since I can explore areas in the map and inspect the items. The story is stunning in Chapter 1. Mysterious murder, I have to collect the keys and passcode from the people I meet. Some clues show up only once, you have to be very careful(such as Santo’s computer passcode). I actually got stuck on the storage room passcode part. Firstly I thought it should be Lexie’s(from the letter) however it comes out to be Alexandra who is a freshman Jewish. I then remember that in the former conversation, the detective noted that one of the victim is a freshman to high school and then from the canteen we found out that she might be a Jewish. The “Lexie"name is really misleading. Nevertheless, I enjoy that part. I’m looking forward to the next chapter.

Go grab your favourite pen and pad! At the beginning of the game it tells you – take heed. So put your detective garb on and start solving clues for this murder.

This is a follow up to the Silver Creek Falls Trilogy. I loved Silver Creek Falls. It’s a great example of an RPG Maker game done extremely well. I loved it so much I even wrote a guide.

This sequel doesn’t disappoint as it continues the standard already set. We are back with Detective Sara Fitzgerald to solve another murder in a sleepy town. Sapphire games follow the same strategy as Silver Creek Falls by offering the first part as a free to play game and the last two as paid games.
