This is a cool, adorable, charming platformer that becomes quite challenging in the last level. It controls well, the music is awesome, and it emulates the game boy feel perfectly.

The main mechanic is your bombs are used as makeshift platforms, and as your weapon. You have to manage them well, especially on bosses - because getting stuck in an area when your bombs are on cooldown is almost a sure death sentence. It’s very engaging and I loved it.

This is an easy recommendation for anyone, and especially if you like platformers.

Essex: The Whale Hunter

Essex: The Whale Hunter

Let’s embark on an adventure! Full speed ahead, it’s high time to go hunting! The goal? Glory and precious loot in the form of a multi-ton whale. The stake? Your and your people’s life.

Did I say “people”? Of course, after all, as it has been known for a long time, you must gather your party before venturing forth. Recruit adventurous madmen to become part of your crew.

But what’s a captain without a boat? Take the helm of Essex, the legendary whaling ship Captain George Pollard Jr. used to set out on the memorable voyage of 1819, which ended with the ship colliding with a giant sperm whale and sinking at the bottom of the sea. This event inspired Herman Melville to write the famous Moby Dick, the novel on which Essex: The Whale Hunter is based. Now it’s your turn to visit 19th century Nantucket.

Track down your own Moby Dick, grab your weapons and fight an unequal battle against the sea colossus. Once you win, harvest the raw materials from the whale – you’ll monetise them when paving legal trade routes and searching for luck on the black market. Only (or as many as) a couple of accurate harpoon throws stand before you and a great fortune.

And when the ocean turns against you, smashing your ship to smithereens and lunging you to the shore of a desert island, do your best to get out of there and return to where you belong – to the great seas.

Essex: The Whale Hunter is a 19th-century whaling simulator and a great opportunity to experience a truly Melvillian adventure, full of tension, grave dangers and whale trophies to win. Become a legend and find your Moby Dick!

I’ve been waiting to play this game since the first time I heard about it and I’m so happy to finally be able to!

It speaks to my heart when a game dares not to take itself seriously and, at the same time, still is a good gsme. Fish surely is all that! 3

It feels so good to play an FPS in which the core gameplay involves dodging, after so many years of boring cover shooting. And the level design is cleverly interesting, not shying away to present obscure secrets right when you start (which brings fond memories of Doom 64).

Early Access Review: This is actually a pretty fun game for a retro style game. As others have mentioned the harpoon mechanic is really cool. This game has some interesting puzzles that require a bit of thinking to get thru, but not so difficult that it makes it impossible. You may have to retry the level a couple of times to get thru the “learning curve”.

Since it is early access there are some things that the developer is working on. But the good news is that the issues are getting discovered quickly and bug fixes are coming in.

I stumbled upon this game while taking a look through early access titles. The first thing that caught my eye was that it is survival. The second thing that really peaked my curiosity was spiri animals. What, are you kidding me?! Who does that?! How could that work?! Well, let me tell you, I was immediately engrossed in the visually pleasing artistry and placement of all the points of interest giving it a realistic feel which we all try to find in these MMO’s. You can roam this huge map for hours and you’ll see something new every time. There is always something to do as in any survival game, it’s hard not to get distracted! Weather you like solo play or group play, pvp or pve, exploring or building, this is the game for you! The Developers are always interactive and enjoy playing right along side even the newbies so you don’t need to be a high lvl to be noticed! Now, with that said, I won’t go into obvious details which every new game, especially early access, about what I don’t like about Spirit Animal Survival because negatives are to be expected and my likes, or loves rather, outweigh the things that are still being worked on. It is, after all, a work in progress. Look, all I’m trying to say is, stop reading this already and come in, enjoy some great company with friendly people and have some fun! If you’re waiting for the invite, well, this is it! Don’t hesitate, I hear the sale price will be ending soon! Also wanted to add, if you’re concerned with the minimum requirements, I know it says min i5, I’m running an i3 with the only real issues being in the loading and shutting down, the game play is practically flawless! Don’t let that be what scared you away, let it be that big bad T-Rex that one shot you!

Before I write my thoughts, I saw someone post false information that I’d like to correct. You actually CAN report bugs without having to use a 3rd party chat software called Discord. There is a big box in the main menu (as seen in one of the videos above) that clearly states you can report bugs by contacting them via their email at support@spiritanimalsurvival.com - if the forum or Discord is not your way to go, there is always that solution for you.

Now on to my actual thoughts of this game in its current state! Spirit Animal Survival (SAS) is another survival game with some unique elements in it. The features you expect in a survival game are there, you need to go get resources, craft and build, while trying to stay alive by eating, drinking and not letting others/animals kill you. You got to do a bit of grinding but that’s part of the games in this genre. The most unique feature of the game is that you can transform/morph into a spirit animal. There is a bunch of them and all of them have their own attacks/features. This does set the game apart from other survival games that I have played. You can see how this work in the videos above.

Salt and Sails

Salt and Sails

You are steering a “free” pirate ship. You need to use a cannon to knock out anything close, yes, anything, including small fish and bees. I didn’t expect that the little bee could threaten this big ship, I was so naive. And I believe the best Gunner of the 17th century couldn’t hit bees and fish with cannon. Whether I am too young or the game is too stupid is a serious question. But my 3-year-old nephew told me that he thought the game was boring. So I have the answer in my heart.

The Zwuggels - A Beach Holiday Adventure for Kids

The Zwuggels - A Beach Holiday Adventure for Kids

Although he’s a little young to manage the mouse, our 22-month-old Smol Owlbear loves playing Zwuggels on a touchscreen, so much so that we’ve bought it for additional platforms.

The characters are charming - especially Nico - and the mini-games that make up each level of the game almost all hit the sweet spot between interactive toys and intellectual challenges for young kids,

I love the multi-lingual text, as it gives our family a chance to do some reading in a couple of the languages we use, in a refreshing format.

Real player with 35.3 hrs in game

Score – 8/10 (Recommended)

If you don’t care if an interactive storybook doesn’t read itself, there’s a lot to like about The Zwuggels: the game is a hoot for four and five-year-olds, it has superb artwork and it’s a great opportunity for you and your child to bond as you explore the adventure together. Recommended if you’re a parent seeking a family-friendly precursor to point ‘n’ click adventures for children.

Salt 2: Shores of Gold

Salt 2: Shores of Gold

Salt 2: Shores of Gold is an open world pirate game with a focus on exploration, survival, and crafting. Set sail across an infinite ocean with just you and your ship. Explore islands filled with caves, ruins, pirate camps, towns, and other mysterious places. The world is procedurally generated, so you’ll never run out of islands to explore. Hunt and fish for survival, find resources to craft rare items, decorate your ship, go on quests, level up your skills, and fight legendary pirates. Salt 2 also features RPG aspects such as loot rarities and talents so you can customize your character to fit your playstyle.

What Makes Salt Unique?

You might be wondering what makes Salt different than other pirate games. There’s a few things. For one, we’ve put our focus on the single player exploration experience. This means you don’t need friends to help you manage your boat or to explore the world. This isn’t a game focused on naval combat, but instead on PVE content such as exploring the sea, going on quests, crafting and survival elements, leveling up skill systems and unlocking talent trees, and discovering interesting places and loot. Because of this focus on exploration, we’ve also made the world procedurally generated so you can explore in any direction for as long as you want.

Explore an Infinite World

We wanted to create a pirate game that focused on exploration and adventure first and foremost. You start in the middle of an infinite ocean with just you and your ship, pick a direction, and set sail across a procedurally generated world. Experience pure freedom in where you go and what you do. Discover uncharted islands filled with quests, pirates, and hundreds of points of interest such as ancient ruins, caves, pirate camps, villages, and other mysterious places. Even though the islands are procedural, our points of interests are hand crafted with unique secrets, puzzles, and design.

Fish and Hunt to Survive

You’ll need some food to survive. Grab a fishing pole and toss a lure overboard to catch some fish or grab your bow and head into the woods to hunt some wildlife.

Craft and Upgrade

As you explore the world you will discover tons of resources that can be used to craft new items, armor, weapons, and upgrades for your ship.

Decorate Your Ship

We want your ship to be your home at sea. While exploring the world you will find items to upgrade your ship, decorating it and making it unique to you. And you won’t need other people to help manage your ship. It’s just you, the sea, and the endless horizon.

Level Up

Unlock talent trees for different skills such as combat, fishing, crafting, hunting, and get unique perks for your character.

Loot Epic Gear

Salt 2 features an RPG style loot system with different rarities of armor and weapons, and interesting stats to tailor to the play style you want. Each piece of gear also has randomized talents. So whether you are crafting a high level item, or hunting down a pirate captain for an epic sword, you’ll always be searching for that new rare item with the perfect roll.

Fight Legendary Pirates

The islands are full of dangerous enemies. Fight legendary pirates, bosses, and dangerous wildlife in your hunt for adventure.

Go on Quests

Dock your ship at a sea port and pick up quests and commissions from guilds, the townsfolk, and merchants.

How is Salt 2 Different from the Original?

If you’ve played Salt 1, you might be wondering what is new in the sequel. For starters, a complete visual overhaul. We are switching to a new rendering pipeline allowing for much better graphical fidelity. This means brand new models, textures, shaders, lighting, animations, UI, and performance improvements. We are also revamping the island generation system for more varied and interesting looking islands. In addition to that, Salt 2 will have hundreds of hand crafted points of interest such as caves to make exploration a much more deep and unique experience.

We are also putting a much bigger focus on crafting, survival, and ship decoration mechanics. In Salt 2 these mechanics will be deeper than the original and feed directly into the gameplay loop. You’ll also be able to level up your weapons and unlock talents that fit your playstyle. And of course Salt 2 will include brand new quests, new gear, improved combat mechanics, and a new soundtrack.
