When The Past Was Around
“I wish there was a way to know you were in the good old days before you actually left them." - Andy Bernard (The Office)
I’ve played this through more than once, When The Past Was Around is a simple relaxing game that i will miss for a weeks after i finished it. Back in 2018 when i first played a Raven Monologue and Banyu Lintar Angin i wish there is little bit more longer and maybe put something like a puzzle based on point and clicks because i really enjoyed it. The art style it’s so beautiful that i really wish i can draw something like that one day and don’t forget about the soundtracks it is super chill and lovely. After i’ve heard they going to released the game that something similiar i’m super excited and now here i am, I’m not disappointed at all. it is really great, beautiful art style, amazing soundtrack and now with puzzle! I really liked the way they tell the story without any dialogue at all they just.. like.. you’d know has some meaning and you figure it out like a raven with a “rock” and now Eda with hers memories. Sure worth experiencing especially during this difficult time, this is just touch your soul.

_An emotional, thought-provoking journey about love and loss that’s shown through the memories of Eda.
Eda’s beloved, assumed to be Mr. Owl, has passed away but is revived in Eda’s reflection. Because they had woven the gameplay and story together, the recurring chords in every scene were wonderfully incorporated into the ambiance and background. Little details, such as crumbling the tombstones in chapter one, “requiem,” along with the occasional shattering of plant pots, really emphasized Eda’s underlying grievance. I found it satisfying to uncover memories and move on by completing each puzzle. To me, the puzzles represent the struggles of letting go of the past. It takes time for acceptance and the resilience to realize that the person we held dear is no longer with us._****************************

100 hidden snails 2
This game is better suited for a child probably 6 to 12 years old (imho) than an adult. The first 50 you find on black/white artwork and all the snails are inside the artwork somewhere. At 50, the artwork colors itself in (and it is truly beautiful) and 51 through 100 can be anywhere on the screen. Took me less than 5 minutes to find the first 50. The second 50 were a bit harder only because I didn’t realize at first they were not “restricted” to the artwork itself like the first 50. I have .9 hours listed as my play time only because I got up several times last night to walk away and give my eyes a rest while I searched for the last piece that was proving elusive. Too easy in my opinion and I won’t be buying any of the other ones offered now.

100 Hidden Snails 2 is a very simple hidden object puzzle. Find 100 hidden objects in a large 2D line drawing of a factory. The whole thing might as well be done in a web browser. This one differs from the others in the series by having two stages, after the first 50 snails, the puzzle is redrawn in colour and you must locate the remaining snails (much more difficult due to how much busier the image has become).
There’s just not enough gameplay or enjoyment in this to recommend anyone should pay for something this simple, short, and unengaging. Steam is for video games, not Where’s Waldo books.

GlitchPets
PLATFORMING MADNESS S+ RANKING OUT OF 10 BUT A BIT GLITCHY.
Ah in all seriousness though glitch pets is a wonderful and interesting take on the platforming genre and completely takes convention (and while not abandoning interesting level design and ideas) and throws it out the window. Aesthetically this game is a pleasing fever dream meets a music video meets a crashing operating system. I found myself blissfully pulled into this games visual style, laymans terms its trippy af. And it isn’t afraid to go overboard with its graphical style and presentation either and for that I apploud it. The design of these levels fits in with the artstyle as well, platform’s scattered about the world and slides provide a very solid platforming experience in what seems to be a fractured and beautifully chaotic world.

Clutter 1000
Just an amazing, interesting, thought provoking piece of genius. Good mix of play. Gets the brain going as a mental stimulant in the A.M with your coffee. Photography and range of subjects and topics covered cannot be commended enough. WELL WORTH IT!

Nice simple game to relax too. There is a timer, but it is optional, you can just remove it.
It’s not to clear what the rules are at first since there’s no explicit text boxes, but symbols at the bottom of the screen signifying the parameters i.e. pair 2, match to portrait, etc. But you eventually learn to interpret their meanings.
The gameplay largely involves just clicking on items to match with others and it nails that aspect perfectly. Zero complaints about clicking on something I intended to only to be given some to the side or behind. The hitboxes are perfectly side/shaped and the cursor is very accurate.

Ki11er Clutter
I have never jumped into one of these puzzle games on PC but when I saw Ki11er Clutter I had to give it a shot. The game is fast paced and challenging if that is your style or you can take your time and just enjoy the ride. The quotes and insights into Joes life along the way are also quite enjoyable. I finished the 144 level campaign in about 14 hours and while I won’t be playing the additional levels now I can see huge replay value for anyone who likes puzzle games.

Oneiros
Oneiros is an absolutely fantastic experience that falls on blind eyes: It’s realistic yet mysterious approach to world building, the bright color palette, ways in which the story progresses, transitions through-out the journey, comedic moments, strategic methods regarding puzzles, and enjoyability from beginning to end. All of it together paints a journey…of a man, created by Coal Valley Games.
This new endeavor for the creator’s developmental journey, was a way for the developer to branch out. After years of experience as a game developer, he always felt the need to make a story-driven game, so in 2018, he started production. After two years of hard work, on March 27th, 2020, Oneiros was public for the world to see…or…not…see…

Oneiros
First Impressions🤔
After completing the game I am glad I stuck with it, and enjoyed most of my time playing Oneiros.
My mind changed from positive to negative a few times mainly due to an infuriating psychedelic maze and an awkward platform level. They were almost enough for me to quit the game completely.
