DarKnot

DarKnot is a game about the extermination of monsters on the streets of a foggy city. Here you will find insidious opponents, dynamic battles and puzzles of various degrees of difficulty. It’s up to you to decide in what style to play the game.

Darknot is a gloomy world of eternal terror. You are the one who has been left alone face to face with death in its labyrinth. Challenge yourself and try to keep your mind sane meanwhile. Welcome to the third-person non-linear psychological horror game with a high level of detail and immersion by ElbrusLab studio, a new indie game developer.

The action takes place in a labyrinth of streets of a huge city. They feel deceptively calm while being deadly dangerous. You know almost nothing about the world and even less about yourself. You can become a part of Darknot, resist it, or find your own way. What will you do to survive? How far will you go to save yourself?

Explore the world, experience survival at your best. You choose your own style of play and strategy for interaction with each of your opponents. You can return to Darknot again, and your fate will be different.

Features:

  • Playability: we use immersive simulation and design the lore in a way that will provide you with a new experience every time you play the game.

  • Hardcore: it is not easy to survive, each death affects the plot development and the way you play through the game.

The Night of Joe

The Night of Joe

You have been so nervous, holding your CV in your hand for a job you need but don’t really see yourself doing. After the interview (that went horrible) you went to the bathroom to “refresh”, and you ended up falling asleep…When you woke up you still had this weird dream in your mind about a guy in the clouds telling you to be careful and giving you something…was it a flashlight?

Strangely you realize that it’s already night time and you’re alone in the supermarket. You’re holding the flashlight in your hand, thinking that you are still dreaming but it is reality.

Something strange is going on here…

While walking between the shelves looking for an exit you realize that you are not alone, something in the Night is hunting you.

Armed with your special flashlight, will you have what it takes to get out of the building?

  • Each time you die the location of some objectives are randomized.

  • Find and activate electric panels to then take the escalators and go on the next level.

  • Stop the monster with the special mode of your flashlight, but be careful it uses more battery and you will be defenseless in the dark.

  • Survive the Night.

  • No gore.

  • Meet Joe’s special humor.

This game is tripe. I spent nearly 40 minutes very slowly trudging from room to room with no idea what I was meant to be doing. Putting aside the bad english translations which I could get the jist of, there is still no coherent plot or instructions. The controls are terrible, you move glacially slowly and you spend forever waiting for dialogue boxes to close trying to open doors and explore. I think this game is a big maze of number-matching item fetch quests and as it takes about 10 minutes waiting for you character to move from one side of the map to the other at snails pace, frankly life is too short.

Dark Sheep

Dark Sheep

This is a well-made, if short and simple, puzzle game, that pays homage to the commodore 64 era of games in its visuals, sound, and mechanics. It’s simple narrative is delivered concisely with plenty of humor, while still maintaining the focus on it’s increasingly complex and challenging puzzles.

The visuals are charming, and not bogged down or complicated with unnecessary effects, it’s simple and cute, and faithful to the era it seeks to emulate. Nothing was ever confusing or hard to understand, and the visuals effectively communicate tone and humor when it’s intended.

After beating every level with the best move count as an extra challenge, I recommend the game for fans of Puzzle games, Dark and ambiguous stories and Old computer aesthetics.

Starting as a simple puzzle game, the gameplay keeps getting some twists every few levels, which will change the way you think and play. The one thing I know after playing for almost 6 hours is that I wished there were more.

The story is nicely done, and surprisingly, you engage in it during the game.

Will you get your moneys worth? Absolutely,

POSTAL

POSTAL

I Regret Nothing

POSTAL is one of those games, even after all these years, you can still pick it up and truly appreciate for what it is and how it affected the view of video games back in 1997. Unlike it’s sequel POSTAL 2, this game is extremely dark, (in which HATRED tried to do and then some, but personally found it to try too hard.) Postal is an isometric top-down shooter where your goal is to kill all enemies (or 90% of them) in the map and move onto the next area. Due to what a lot of people believed, you don’t actually have to kill innocent people! Though what’s the fun in that? … It’s not, it’s painful trying to complete the game without killing any innocent people.

Having played this games series to completion (well, almost: what, you mean to tell me that you actually got all the way through Postal 3?!), I feel that reviewing them all is necessary. This game, however, is going to be difficult to review. It’s not that it’s a badly made game or that I hate it (on the contrary). The problem is that it’s such a disturbing game that I may end up on a watchlist for recommending it. Whatever! Here it goes.

The first installment of the Postal series is of humble origins, provided that your definition of “humble origins” involves being banned in 14 countries, being blacklisted by most major retailers and being mentioned by Senator Joe Lieberman to the Senate as one of the “three worst things in American society” (the other two being Marilyn Manson and Calvin Klein underwear ads). Postal is a game about a guy (the Postal Dude) being bombarded with demonic mental images and voices convincing him to murder society as a whole. Each level is a neighborhood, truckstop, air force base, shopping mart, etc. of innocent people and hostile people (“hostile” being cops, government agents, well-armed vigilantes and other people who are merely trying to stop a madman with weapons from murdering everybody). You are instructed to kill at least 80-90% of the hostile people before progressing to the next level. Unlike the succeeding two games, the only morality choice you’re really given is whether you want to kill only the people trying to kill you or kill everybody.

Retexo Mori

Retexo Mori

“Above all, we hold this to be irrefutable: Death is the only True Evil. Retexo Mori.”

  • Daily Prayer of the Unyielding

Retexo Mori is a Pac-Man-like game in first person, with bullet hell elements and an aesthetic that clashes early 90’s FPS pixel-art with vaporwave. It features short, high-intensity rounds inside carefully crafted arenas where you must navigate, avoid, and outwit Shadows that pursue you relentlessly. It is easy to understand, but difficult to master: while the enemies behave predictably, in tandem they can easily box you in if you don’t think far enough ahead.

Man this game was really worth the time. I was given the game through random selected steam cards, and boy was I lucky to get this game. I would recomend this game to anyone over the age of 16 years.

So the game was, quite clearly, updated with a new underground map. An update could be a nice thing, but in this case the underground map is an enclosed labyrinth with no way out. I’ve tried heading down every possible path to its end and there’s nothing but dead ends and a few bundles of zombies littered throughout it. It kind of… well, it sucks. The game is monotonous and pointless and, with the update, there is absolutely no way to get to the portion of the game where you’re shooting zombies. I was looking for meaningless fun when I bought this game, all I found was the meaningless part. I am sad. I wanted to shoot zombies with the weapons the game’s description promises are in the game; but that part of the game is inaccessible and the game ends up a walking and dodging simulator with zombies senselessly appearing as part of the scenery.
