The Norwood Suite

The Norwood Suite

The game was rather short, though it isn’t a bad thing. You come into the game as hotel visitor and as a gamer, you do not overstay that welcome. (The time shown was me leaving the game on while I did other things, but it’s about a couple hours of gameplay)

The characters and assets don’t look like much has been done, but the level design is interesting in a way you feel like you just started an acid trip. That sense of paranoia of people watching you; and at times there are certain figures with heads that don’t stop following you with their heads or eyes.

Overview

The Norwood Suite is a hard game to describe. It’s weird, strange, interesting, odd, confusing, quirky.

It’s also damned fun. A rather short experience at just over 2.5 hours (longer if it takes you more time to figure out some of the puzzles), but in that 150 minute timespan, you’re treated to an interesting story with a really weird but intriguing cast of characters, great level design, and fantastic music.

You play as a guest arriving at The Norwood, a weird hotel that’s known for being the home of a musician, Peter Norwood, way back. The man was as eccentric as the people you encounter and need to help out. A group of musicians working on new material, an employee who loves Blue Moose, front desk clerks who are coy about things in the hotel, and many more.

HELPLESS

HELPLESS

(Very) short game about going through an abandonned hospital, mostly about finding an object to allow you go through to the next area, and hide from the main enemy.

Well done and nice to play, but little replay value.

I really enjoyed this one. Sound fx and music were on point with the creepy factor and I like how you seemed “Helpless” when trying to escape at the end. It made for some great content as well (except for the copyright claim). EDIT The Copyright Claim was released - Great first game! https://youtu.be/HKgInJur_2I

Bist du zu schwach oder Stark

Bist du zu schwach oder Stark

You play a character die was against zombie or against ki opponents (soldiers) has to fight.

You don’t catch anything and you have to go through the map and look at the weapons and find them.

The game will be like that with more levels and such.

And that the levels are getting harder and harder.

Santa Claws

Santa Claws

Give the perfect gift

Even Santa can have a mental breakdown. Let’s face it our modern world is becoming too much for the old guy. He is just one cookie away from….(find out in the game). This season give the perfect gift to your Steam friends. Sure, this game is cheap and devoid of substance, but its entertainment value is unmatched for its price. My son, after playing, is no longer looking forward to seeing Santa this year. I’m kind of glad because it costs a ton for pictures with him at the mall. Enjoy

Had a lot of fun playing this game, can’t beat the price and its festive for the time of the year! I got on the naughty list just by eating the candy canes, now those gingerbread men will forever be the ones that got away. Here is my play through, the maze took a little bit of time but I figured out a way to dodge Santa:

Dont waste your time, wasnt expecting much since the game is free but it would be nice to actually be able to finish the game. Turning off fog was the only way to decently play the first portion and the end portion is unplayable like other reviews have pointed out.

Real player with 1.2 hrs in game

Would Highly recommend! Great atmosphere, good story, and pretty spooky.

Dark Threads

My initial experience was…. well I could not move from I spawn and I kept getting a little ways into the prologue before weird things would happen like I would fly out of the map or stop being able to move around.

I still don’t know if it was my computer or not but I reinstalled the game and played it again and things seem to work great with the exception of some objects causing me to walk backwards when I pick them up.

If you enjoy sci fi and/or walking simulators you will enjoy this game. It is clear a lot of time and care has gone into production values.

Its alright. Would give it a neutral review if I could. Positive just because I like that the Canadian government is helping fund VR experiences like this.

Short (roughly ~1.5 hours) sci-fi experience (aka “walking simulator”) with a very overt environmental message. Production values are alright but many of the textures are very low-res. Little interactivity beyond walking slowly and picking things up.

It wasn’t bad, but I have to say I was slightly underwhelmed at the end. It needed either better production values or a longer, more fleshed out story to be truly memorable.

Dear Mom

Dear Mom

A short and very sweet journey through a daughter’s message to her Mom. This is a walking simulator with a heart and for anyone who has loved and lost their mother, it will strike a deep emotional chord.

Dear Mom takes less than an hour to explore. You wander freely through the environment, clicking objects as you find parts of a letter (audio snippets), memories of Mom, and floating hearts. The Mom memories made me smile, as so many were things that I heard growing up. The game has no save and ends when you reach a final point.

The Game, that touched me most this Year. A Game that definetly needs more attention.

Rereviewed for the Autumn Sales Quests.

Also hoping for making more Readers interested in it.

Thanks for reading again.

Do you know the Situation?

Sometimes there are Moments where you can’t find words, or just don’t know how to start, don’t know to find the right Words.

That is one Moment for me.

I finished DEAR MOM, Minutes ago and im very thoughtfull.

It feels … somehow …a little bit if this Game showed me a glance ….. into my Mirror.

EQI

EQI

Pros

  • Simple gameplay. Rotate the environment around with left mouse and right mouse, jump from platform to platform, the gameplay is easy to get into while changing up enough to stay fun.

  • Nice visuals. The strange, trippy and almost otherworldly look of the game gives it a unique style.

  • Great soundtrack. The techno tracks on offer fit the game’s theme and provide some good background to the gameplay.

Cons

  • Some puzzles are tedious. Some stages require crazy levels of precision to finish, which leads to some frustrating trial and error, this is at its worst in the last stage when you can’t die unless you go out of bounds, so you don’t get a quick restart and have to walk back to the start and do everything over to finish.

Real player with 2.2 hrs in game

As advertised EQI is a “trippy first-person arcade game with spatial puzzles, and a synthwave soul”. I’d also say it has sort of an ambient game vibe similar to Journey. The best parts about this game are the vibrant, colorful visuals, and the unique platforming gimmick.

This gimmick of rotating platforms does take some time to get used to, and while I like the overall vibe of the game, certain rooms are extremely difficult and frustrating to figure out. Partially because the game doesn’t convey what you are doing right or wrong very well. It reminds me of games like Giga Wrecker in that way.

Hey Devs, great game. I found some of the levels challenging and a good use of logic. I did my first run in 14 hrs. and even enjoyed a second run to collect my missing collectible achievement. The jumping portions in some of the puzzles were quite easy once I figured out the timing sequence. A well thought out game and highly recommended. I’d like to see a sequel.

Awesome game. Addictive. Absolutely beautiful to look at. The puzzles are challenging and interesting. Its also pretty simple and straightforward but with a cool backstory. Would be fun to have a 2 player option, making the puzzles even more mind-bending. I really hope they make a sequel!
