If you like Point ‘n’ Click games and/or dinosaurs, this game is awesome!

Good:

-I love dinos and this game is awesome for dino fans for multiple reasons. Firstly, they don’t use the classics but instead most dinosaurs are species you won’t find in most popular media(some even I didn’t know yet!). Secondly, every dino species (plus other animals, plants and more) are detailed in an encyclopedia that you can choose to read. Fun for kids to read!

-The style is made to remind you of games like Freddi Fish and Pajama Sam, which I consider a plus as I played them a lot as a kid.

Tomb Raider: Anniversary

***** QUICK SPOILER-FREE REVIEW *****

An amazing game! I’ve played the others by Crystal Dynamics and I’d place this with the gritty reboot as the best.

THE GOOD: Damn near everything!

The puzzles are actually puzzling, the platforming challenging, the dialogue and acting are actually good and the story gives Lara some surprising depth! The music hits both the atmospheric and action themes perfectly, and the game is more than its money’s worth in terms of length (expect 20 - 40 hours). Oh and it still looks great in 2015!

Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a superb game in almost every way. As a video gamer new to the franchise, I can now fully understand the reasons behind the tremendous popularity of the Tomb Raider series and the fervor of its fan base. The extent of my previous experience with the internationally celebrated Lara Croft amounted to about 20 minutes of game play on a roommate’s Playstation back in the year 2000. Thus, I had not been truly prepared for how fantastic a journey I would embark upon in Tomb Raider: Anniversary for PC on sale from Steam.

Beacon

Beacon

Updated Added 3/24/2019

Keep in mind this is a game still in beta phase, so it’s not quite finished. I’ll likely update my review as Beacon continues development.

I absolutely love top-down shooters and Beacon is no exception, in fact, it makes me appreciate them more. I’ve stuck around playing since it was released on Itch. It’s changed quite a lot, such as additions of enemies and bosses, loot areas, and of course all the bug-squashing, both technical and literal. It’s a little terrifying that there’ll be even more enemies and bosses later, which means plenty more ways to die, but hey, mutations are a thing.

Beacon has a nice low-poly artsyle, a pretty good soundtrack, and interesting writing and ideas. It has some weird design choices regarding weapons and enemies, but is over-all rewarding, if not occasionally frustrating due to a few enemies.

The gameplay is pretty typical: you can use 2 guns, have 1 equipment, 1 consumable/held passive, a grenade type, and as many passive non-held items as you want. You can smack things and dodge-roll, too.

The big game idea is that, when you die, you use DNA pickups you collect from enemies and can “mutate” next run… Or you can do what I did and beat it without mutating, which is pretty doable. Mutations change how the character looks/acts/stats and how the character reacts to items and story elements.

Roarr! The Adventures of Rampage Rex

Roarr! The Adventures of Rampage Rex

Roarr! The Adventures of Rampage Rex isn’t dino-mite at all, and to be fair it’s pretty terrible. The graphics are just ugly, really ugly, It felt they were trying to create that old arcade game feel but it doesn’t do any wonders. And the gameplay gets repetitive really quickly and the controls are just awkward and hard to get used to. And the worst thing about this game is that Horrible music, the music is just agony and not only that it repeats over and over to the point where you feel that your ears are going to bleed. The story is simple and nothing special you play as Sue the T-rex who is woken up by an invading alien race who want to take over the world and it’s up to you to save it, not much to phone home about. Kids might enjoy the game but adults, meh, not so much at all. Rating: 1/10

Real player with 11.8 hrs in game

This is a great game for the kids as a time waster. It’s even split screen coop if you want to play with them. The buttons are few so it’s easy for them to learn the controls. For $3 normal price / under $1 on sale, it’s worth it if you have kids that like to play.

Raptor Boyfriend: A High School Romance

Raptor Boyfriend: A High School Romance

Admittedly, I am really not one for visuals novels as a whole. Rather, I tend to be far more critical of any writing-focused media, which leads me to come across as hyper negative and critical about the works I am providing feedback on.

With that in mind, I hope this comes as a breath of fresh air because, much to my own surprise, I have been thoroughly enjoying this game.

The writing is fairly competent and many of its odd little quirks generally don’t stay too long passed their welcome. There are a couple of cringe-inducing moments, but they are either intentional or feel in line with the characters and setting involved. There is honestly not too much I could weigh in on here because I have the feeling the creators already have an adequate enough understanding of pacing given how little filler is present in the dialogue.

Real player with 34.8 hrs in game

I was drawn in by the unique art style, especially for the genre, and prospect of dating a totally radical raptor and got fully invested.

Raptor Boyfriend is a rather goofy coming of age romance that is able to organically use its premise to tell a heartwarming story that also tackles serious issues. You may play a girl aiming to kiss a stunt performing prankster raptor but her social anxieties, his personal struggles and how their feelings for each other develop are very much real.

I played all the routes and while the episodic format can make each come off a little formulaic, the main love interests still have their unique conflicts, are all interesting and sincere, and every path is well-written. Nonetheless, the titular raptor boyfriend touched me the most emotionally to the extent that I found myself playing through his route repeatedly.

Those that have played ZMR/Hazard ops before already know what they are getting into,its the same game,just a diffrent version that we havent seen in NA/EU before. The game is old,released first time around 2009 or so,a jankier smaller budget gears of wars. Cover mechanics,perfect reloads,fire from cover,all that jazz.

Dont expect any story from this game,its more of an old school arcade 3rd person shooter,and it can be fun in short bursts when it comes to gameplay itself. You choose a map in a lobby and shoot stuff. Several game modes that come down to 2 types in the end,small mini stories called Ops,and wave based survival.

Well I’ve been putting off writing a review but every time I come and look, I see that a negative review (from a guy who I see playing all the time) is the one getting all the attention.

It’s ZMR, Hazard Ops, Black Fire, whatever the hell else it’s been called.

BUT

You need to treat it like its a new game, because unlike the previous iterations there is many more systems added like the crafting, and maps dropping materials, and a whole lot of things that are on the way.

This game has one of the most dedicated playerbases ever, there have been people playing for years and years. But there’s a few players you’ll see every day who got burnt from previous versions being shut down, they’ll tell you the game will die soon and it’s pay to win and a whole lot of other things (while playing the game themselves).

Horizon Zero Dawn™ Complete Edition

Horizon Zero Dawn™ Complete Edition

THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS

This was a beautiful game. It’s a game you could theoretically finish without much effort and time, but the world, the side characters, and the cultures played so deep a part in the story that I found myself sinking 200+ hours into it and not thinking twice. There is so much here in lore picked up in scraps and holograms hidden on your travels.

The thing that stuck out to me the most here was the relationships. Helping the people of the world was as important to the story as anything else, and it comes full circle

! at the end when those people that you choose to be compassionate to (or not) show up in the final epic battle (or they don’t, depending on how you interacted with them) . There are as many opportunities to show compassion and to be human as there are to kill things. It is such a human story that sets itself apart from your run-of-the-mill first-person shooter. It’s exploration and mystery as much as it is combat. It’s learning about people and cultures as much as it is learning about the machines, the world, and the secret of what Zero Dawn really is. This is not to distract from the story which was absolutely unique and incredible in how it unfolds, especially as you get closer to the heart of the truth.

Real player with 226.4 hrs in game

Horizon Zero Dawn is an awesome and fun game, definitely up there at the top of my list of favorite games.

It feels a bit like a fusion of the Tomb Raider reboot series and The Witcher 3 to me. Many of the game mechanics seem very familiar from either of the two but are somewhere in between. The climbing especially feels like somebody wanted a TW3 like game with climbing, was inspired by Tomb Raider (or Uncharted for that matter) and implemented a light version of that. Saying this however is not to diminish what the game achieves in any way. The net result of it is a very entertaining, fun to play set of game mechanics, from combat to stealth, a bit of crafting, riding, etc. (As with the other games many of the combat subtleties you only really learn on the harder difficulties.)

Tomb Raider I

“Fortune and glory, kid. Fortune and glory.”

~Indiana Jones

It’s hard to overrate the first Tomb Raider. Kids nowadays, who take video games for granted, most likely won’t understand how it felt when the entire industry used to change dramatically with certain games being made. And Tomb Raider? It was one of those world-changing titles. But to explain what exactly happened back in 1996, we’ll need to go even further in the past. In the year 1989, when 25 years old man Jordan Mechner released a game for Apple II computers. A game that blew everybody’s mind and quickly became one of the most legendary names in video games history. I’m talking, of course, about Prince of Persia.

Opening an old, dusty box in the attic, coughing like hell and getting your eyes irritated due to the suffocating, aged dust contained within. It has been years, if not decades, when you laid your eyes upon that once silver coloured box and the many games received as gifts, probably, amongst the many iconic titles, one always stood up to you, maybe it was the hype, maybe it was how the story sparked interest or maybe, just maybe it’s the pointy… ‘‘triangles’’. Nonetheless, you pick up everything, run down the stairs, plug everything correctly and fire the beast already. Damn… 24 years has passed and it still smells like childhood.

DIY MY LADY + VR VERSION

To play this game, the first and most important thing is to create a custom character. This DIY character can be created from photos. And can be saved for DIY Worlds.

Select the DIY Face button in the upper left corner first, to generate a header.

After selecting a photo here, you can add many effects. Such as cartoonize, or changing age, or even changing gender!

Then there are ~20 kinds of bodies to match/attach to. After connecting the body with the head, a lady is created.

The game has a lot of nice features and a few weakpoints.

First of all, the KI communications are very funny and the KI has a lot of answers for your questions which

even makes sense a lof of times. And even when the answer is nonsense it is funny. So the KI communikation

is in my oppinion the best part of this game. In english it is even possible via microfon.

Another big pluspoint is the model, because she is very cute and you can place her on your desktop.

I also like the dance moves and the music even when there are just a few options.
