DEDstress
Oh man oh man. What can I say about this game?
Overall, I would say this is the Dark Souls of horror escape room games, with their well thought out game design and intent. Each checkpoint gets harder and harder, as it becomes more demanding of your attention and memory (and patience too). Every time you die, you will become frustrated, and may be tempted to rage quit, and yet you find yourself wanting to just try it “one more time” to beat this hellish game. But you will become better and better at it (whether it’s avoiding those doll-obsessed zombies or rolling doctors who turn into logs), and ultimately, when you finally finish it, you will feel a deep satisfaction.

One of the most, original, challenging and fun games I have played in a long time.
DEDstress is a very fast paced single player game with very high energy. Having to solve puzzles and use my brain while being chased by some crazed nurse is something I have not felt playing anything else. It isn’t horror, but it comes close to a panic attack simulator.
This game has given me heart problems.
69/10 would panic spray again.

Mundaun
Mundaun is really good. It’s very refreshing to play a horror game set elsewhere than an asylum, a space station or a suburban house, there’s way too few games taking place in Switzerland. The game looks unique and I’m in awe just thinking how many graphite drawings it took and there’s quite a few striking setpieces I still think about to this day. The atmosphere is thick and eerie, you know something’s not right but can’t quite put your finger on it.
The characters are great, huge love for a certain evil one who oozes darkness. The romansh voice acting adds so much to the sense of mystery and it’s not like you’d play games in romansh everyday. The story is pretty straightforward and feels like a folktale you’d tell just before bedtime, a story the whole town would know.

Sometimes it only takes one picture to see that the game will be - at the very least - interesting. I saw the first picture of Mundaun on an indie website something like two years ago, and after that was patiently waiting for release. I was expecting another tiny 2-3-hour horror game - only this time with actual style and atmosphere.
What I didn’t expect was was ten hours of high production values all across the board.
- A culturally informed take on the classical European ‘deal with the Devil’ scenario.

Shashingo: Learn Japanese with Photography
Explore a bright, fictional Japanese city street filled with details and interesting objects to capture with your camera. Each photograph you take will translate the name of the content into Japanese and English so you can learn with your surroundings.
Features:
-
A stylised, approachable 3D environment
-
In-game photography system
-
Japanese voice acting
-
Photo album to store flash cards
-
A game mode that tests your memory
Create Stunning Photography Based Flashcards
Your photographs will help you memorise vocabulary in a creative way that is personal to yourself.
Track Your Progress In The Photo Album
Mark your favourite words with a heart sticker to view them separately from the rest, and track your mastery of each word with an easy to follow star rating system.
Lushfoil Photography Sim
Experience detailed, true-to-life recreations of various landmarks around the world. Each environment is authentically recreated using reference photos taken on location, and includes detail at both a small and large scale.
- Capture Every Detail
Use a realistically inspired DSLR to observe and capture the world around you. Includes an abunance of settings that you’d expect from a real-world professional camera, including Auto/Manual Focus, Exposure, Contrast, White Balance, Aperture and a selection of filters, for full creative control over your shooting. All photos are saved to your hard drive, like a collection of real photos.
- Leave no Stone Unturned
Objectives are not the first priority in the game, but it will reward the types of players who are patient, observant, and like to venture off the beaten path. Each environment is filled with Unlockables, Secret Objectives, Collectibles, and Easter eggs that not everyone will find.
- Smooth as Butter
Each environment is very efficiently optimised and doesn’t need the latest hardware to run. There are extensive custom settings that will help the game run on a wide range of systems, and will still take full advantage of high-end cards.
- VR Support
A Virtual Reality DLC will be released in Early Access shortly after the game comes out. I’m a huge advocate for VR and I would love to give everyone the opportunity to experience the level of immersion that VR offers.
NORSK: Epistle
Definitely a worthy purchase if you want to experience something new, especially for the price. Solving puzzles in different dimensions is a new concept at least for me and probably the best and most entertaining thing about this game.

If there were neutral ratings, I would give this game one.
-
technical well made (by just two people)
-
atmospheric
-
fitting, beautiful illustrations and soundtrack
-
finding some items can be challenging
-
really short
-
totally overpriced for the length
-
very predictable story (with lots of medical and psychological bullshit for the sake of a tense atmosphere)
-
puzzles = mostly searching for items
-
gamebreaking bugs (had to restart once and replay a large part another time)

Among the Innocent: A Stricken Tale
Surprisingly good. The game feels a bit like what you’d get if “Scratches” and “Dear Esther” had a love child. The game marries the best features of both to create a rare style of exploration-based adventure game that you don’t see very often. (I wish we saw games like this constantly).
The first half of the game is very, very strong. Fantastic atmosphere, a real sense of exploration and wonder, an excellent union of beauty with a sense of the decrepit, and an impied mystery left entirely to your own imagination – you’ll most likely start to ask yourself, “What the hell happened here?” Answering that question is arguably the main plot, but is left entirely to the player. In terms of finishing the game, you can completely ignore that aspect of the game and focus only on the puzzles instead. This gives a true touch of realism to the game, as you’re FAR from hit over the head with the story. It’s fantastically there, but the option exists to go about your business nearly oblivious to it.

Response to developers below:
Very disappointing game. There isn’t actually much to do and not many places to explore and the tasks are tedious and annoying with no real point to any of it.
The ending made zero sense. So all in all a waste of time sadly.. I liked the feel of it and had real hope for this as a game but as I was putting nails into a bit of wood for no good reason, I realised I was not really having fun.
I hoped the ending would bring it all together, but it was just a boring slog round a mine then a pointless cut scene. Not worth the money.

VR Modern Wars: Advance under air raid
Fair play games do not get much worse than ‘VR Modern Wars: Advance under air raid’. This tank controlling game has only two levels and all you need to do is to drive to the beam of light. Sometimes that beam of light is literally right next to you and other times it is a little further away. You can fire your gun and turret, but you really don’t have to. There is no challenge here, no fun…in fact, I can’t think of a reason why anyone would want to download this! Sure, it only costs £1.69, but you could buy a nice bottle of pop for that and have way more fun.
