Waiting For The Raven

Waiting For The Raven

Well, it’s still an early-access game, so don’t expect it to work all the way through -

but I thought it was an interesting approach, and it was nice to try something different.

Douglas Adams, alas, predicted this sorry state of affairs:

“In other words - and this is the rock-solid principle on which the whole of the Corporation’s Galaxywide success is founded - their fundamental design flaws are completely hidden by their superficial design flaws.”

And if they were actually from another planet, you could overlook the developers poor grasp of human languages, as well.

The game still needs more polishing. The first spymater session is enough satisfying and the storytelling is quite reliable. There are a bunch of spark ideas during the first session gameplay including some right in time visual effect, some good cypher solving games and some well hidden bonus. The problems of first session could only be some buggy UI display and the strategy management part. I spent like 5 to 6 hours to totally break through the first session and to find out how naive the management part actually is. Beside the 10000 gold bonus and some other hidden bonus, I can just use some wine barrels, a 10 stealthy big boy and a 10 charming miss to burn all the houses to the ground without any real punishment. And the game is just like lying down there suffering from my giant gold dick-play. I mean, you guys did a lot of great work in designing the dialogues and storytelling and visual effects and different strategy dealing with different situations. But why the actual management part is so disappointing. The balance of some punishment events and the credit bonuses is totally a mess. That’s not cool at all.

Lost Angel

the plot is a bit far-fetched and the acting isn’t perfect (especially when they fall down), but overall an entertaining game with many branches and choices that change the course of events

I love FMV games, I almost bought and played every full-motion video game on steam. To my disappointment, Lost Angel didn’t meet my expectation, especially with the topic of the game itself. When you read the game information about the main character, a youtube influencer getting involved in a dangerous conspiracy, you’d think it will be an exciting story, but once they mentioned the Covid-19 virus, it all went down and started to become a cheap story- not that it wasn’t from the beginning due to the mediocre acting.

The game is really cool, I think the best game is the affection that the developers have with it. They are always listening to the community and adapting and improving the game, this is a great thing for me. The game is very fun and it seems that they are always looking to improve.

This last update was incredible, it added so many things and the game was much more fun.

My grade is 10/10 for this game!

OVERVIEW:

The game is management style where you have several options to control a transport company, you buy trucks, buckets, hire your employees and suddenly your company starts to work and bring profits. You can take care of your company alone, organizing everything or you can hire some managers to help you, I as a lover of tycoon games decided to try it out.

POSITIVES:

The management of the trucks is really incredible, you control everything, supply, maintenance and can assemble various types of sets to load different freight.

The Fall of Balance

The Fall of Balance

The Fall of Balance is a VR, fantasy game focused on Colossal boss fights, each with various mechanics, like climbing, character Skills, and others. Although it can be easily compared to Shadow of the Colossus in VR, many gameplay elements make it unique. You will have to trick the giant Guardians in order to climb them and search for their vital spots.

The game is mainly centered around boss fights, but Easter Eggs will be a huge part of the game too, hopefully creating a great and strong community for The Fall of Balance.

Swiss Alps Jigsaw Puzzles

Swiss Alps Jigsaw Puzzles

This is a nice jigsaw puzzle game that only costs a couple dollars. There are 80 pictures to choose from, but only a few of the pictures are really attractive. You can also choose how many pieces you want to be in the puzzle. Glass Masquerade is the only other jigsaw puzzle game I have seen that I like a lot more than this.

Gold Rush! Classic

Gold Rush! Classic

Classic Sierra Adventure Games;

So, that intro from the beginning makes me sigh from the inside. These games (for me) are memories of growing up and sitting on my father’s knee and learning about computers…(the next step involved constructing my own PC from scratch, but that’s a different story for a different time)

Sierra INVENTED the adventure genre as far as I’m concerned, and “Gold Rush” is not only an excellent example of a classic adventure game, it is also the benchmark for self-involved concepts as well as being true to life history.

This game can be super annoying if you don’t know what to expect. Part of it is the primitive mechanics. It’s not like today’s point and click game where you click on a location and the character will move there. You have to use your arrow keys to direct every step of the movement. You also have to instruct the character what to do. Encountering another character will not automatically trigger conversation. You have to tell your character to ‘talk’ by typing this in. If you don’t type in the correct series of words, this will also halt your progress. And last but not least, there is potential to fall into a big hole in this game. Let’s say you did not pick up a certain something on level one, well if you don’t have it at level 10, you can forget finishing this game …  Still, there is a lot of charm to this game with its graphics and story plot. I recommend it on sale. I would also like to play the updated anniversary edition.
