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.

BOT.vinnik Chess: Opening Traps
Moves a bunch of pieces around the board very quickly without giving you much time to take in what is happening on the board, nor explaining why, tells you it’s a popular move (which one? all of them? black or white?). Then demands you “Find the BEST move!”. Well that depends doesn’t it? What am I trying to achieve? So I start moving what ‘I think’ is the best move. Nope, that was wrong and it doesn’t mind telling you in no uncertain terms. I try another. Wrong again! Only this time i’m being patronised. WTH?! Instead of berating me for getting it wrong, tell me what my objective is and explain why moving a certain piece is preferable over moving another. I might actually learn something useful within Chess and not what a waste of oxygen I am.

TY the Tasmanian Tiger
TL;DR
It’s an amazing blast from-the-past from the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox era of 3D Platformers. Very charming, with solid (but easy) platforming, great music, and with some good graphical and camera improvements.
Positives:
-
A classic brought back from the dead! This game is (considered by me and others) a classic from the PS2 era!
-
It’s a solid platformer! Nice tight controls, nothing to horribly hard, and good level design!
-
Quirky characters! From Shazza, to Maurie, to even Ty himself! They all have there own personality and, sometimes they are even funny! (Especially Maurie!) Boss Cass is a legendary villain in my eyes!

Ty The Tasmanian Tiger is essentially a 3D platformer in the style of classics like Super mario 64, Banjo Kazooie, Crash Bandicoot and Croc, just to name a few. The game clearly takes inspiration of those and even wears some of the design decisions on its sleeve. Ofcourse there is absolutely nothing wrong with that when its done well.
And well they did!
Let’s look at the pros and cons!
Pros:
–—–
-
Fun and varied gameplay
-
Great and fitting soundtrack for each individual level
-
Cute characters and simple story

Hot Pot VR
I bought this game based on some of the reviews, but I will start off by saying this is THE BEST VR cooking game on the market, if you’re into simulation with a little bit of arcade. It reminds me of when I was in kindergarten playing with one of those life-sized toy kitchens with my classmates.
It’s not as intricate/frustrating as Cooking SImulator can be, but still PLENTY of recipes, ingredients and cooing techniques to keep you busy in EA. This is early access but it really is varied with lots of different recipes from all over the globe and feels satisfying in VR. I haven’t had it that long and the dev has made some QoL improvements thus far and I’m sure it’ll only get better. I highly recommend this game if you like Cooking Simulator and Overcooked.

Amazing idea, near amazing execution (so far). Now, I know it is an Early Access game, but sometimes it can be a bit weird. Sometimes, when cutting a piece of meat for example, it will have a really small piece I can cut, but the biggest piece is not possible to cut. Other than small nitpicks like that, this game is amazingly built and can only go up from here.

Alexey’s Winter: Night adventure
I enjoyed playing this short point and click game. The hand drawn scenes have a great sense of place and the snow gives shivery cold feeling so I really felt sorry for the main character locked out of his apartment. The music was a good match for the game. The dialogue was very funny and endearing.
I had a small technical problem with my computer before I could play this game but the devs were really helpful and responsive so that the game works as it should now.
I hope the developers add some more episodes as I would definitely play them.

Alexey’s Winter: Night adventure is a very short point & click adventure set in the 1989’s USSR. The game was initially launched in 2017 on the mobile platform and gained positive feedback from the players. At a later date, it received a second episode (and as of Sep 26 2021 a third one) and underwent several design changes. This version was now ported to Steam as a paid item, while the mobile one remains free but was reverted back to one episode only.
The story follows Alexey’s troubles during one cold winter night, trying to get back his lost apartment keys. After a series of intricate puzzles he manages to regain access to his home, only to find out that in the meantime his TV was stolen. This sets the plot for the second and third episodes, which are slightly longer than the first one.

Tribal Hunter
With 41 hours put into so far n’ more to rack up, this game has been worth playin’ every second.
What had originally drawn me to Tribal Hunter was a few clips of it on YoutTube, then after watchin’ a full playthrough of it from a YouTuber, I was totally hooked to it n’ proceeded to add it my wishlist to then be treated by a close best friend of mine who got it for me the next day.
The story of Tribal Hunter is a simple, straightforward one. You’re an ancient guardian spirit ( and for some out there, I’m not referrin’ to Ori from the Blind Forest/Wisps series) named Much, who was summoned to help protect their village from evil n’ to destroy said evil. Through your adventures you’ll have some well written character dialogue n’ a nice servin’ of funny moments to add to the game’s charm n’ also slap your knees with good ol’ comedy.

An excellent Indie game with an original gimmick as its gameplay loop
I needed something to cleanse my palate after playing Fallout: New Vegas and Wasteland 2 back-to-back. I love both games, but there’s only so much I can take before I become weary of the two desaturated nuclear deserts; each filled with complex, dark storylines. So when this colorful, simple-looking game caught my eye, I snagged a copy and tried it out. It obviously did the trick!
Tribal Hunter is a 2D platformer with a light touch of metroidvania. It also has making the main character (named Munch) huge and fat as a central part of its gameplay loop. Throughout the game, the player needs to keep an eye on the lizard’s weight, and manage how best to use it. A thin, light Munch punches faster, is a smaller target, and takes piercing attacks better. However, he isn’t as physically powerful, and only has scant amounts of fuel for his breath attacks; as those pull straight from his fat level. Conversely, being large and in charge makes Munch’s physical attacks more powerful, gives them more of a crowd control effect, and gives him plenty of fuel for breath attacks. Yet Munch is also much more vulnerable to piercing attacks in this form, an obviously-larger target, and runs the risk of exploding should he exceed his body’s limits.
