Survive or Thrive
Secret word: Purge
Chance of survival: Extremely High
Sorry, but I’m not satisfied with this test. The mind gymnastics was nice but I left this test not finding a closure. I wish Steve would start cracking up a joke or become heart-to-heart with me, just like the other test givers.
The questions are disorganized and far too odd. I don’t see the pattern leading up to my first answer.
On the good side, the music is fine. The ending managed to make me feel… an unknown yet strong emotion. I can’t quite put my finger on it. The questions do make me think about what really matters to me in a life or death situation,

Kinda like those psychological tests you can do on the internet, but more fun.
I like to review hypothetical scenarios and think about how I would actually choose in those situations.
Like all kinds of those tests tho, some questions could really use some more context or additional Information as sometimes several choices could be the “best choice” for survival, depending on the circumstances of the individual situation.
My result was: Very high chances of survival on the mental asylum through planning and manipulation of the other patients and the asylum staff.

Quiver Dick’s Terrible Tale For Terrible Parents To Read To Their Equally Terrible Children
When I first saw the preview for Quiver Dick’s (hehehehh well played steam…) Terrible Tale For Terrible Parents to Read To Their Equally Terrible Children, I knew I needed to play it. This game has dark humour, hilarity, a thirsty fairy, awesome music and is dripping in both in-your-face smut and innuendos.
This game is so well put together with incredible art throughout and has the capability of three different possible endings. There are easter eggs as well as nods to music, film and video games throughout with the game clearly being self aware.

First off, if you read the title you already know what kind of game this going to be, and if you already know what kind of game this is going to be your expectations will be high…this game does not disappoint. Off the rip in the opening credits I was enjoying a Monty Python feel (which for me is always a belly laugh kinda experience). The names in the game, the dialogue, the situations encountered..everything about this game felt like it was directly tailored to my idea of humor. The game in and of itself is well made, crisp, and nostalgic in its craft. The laughs will come a plenty and it actually has replay value (which for me as a completionist is awesome). Highly recommend this game for streamers who want to have a good time with their chat and go on a comedy filled journey that will have a lot of “lol’s” “wtf’s” and “LMFAO’S”. Well done Crankagegames…well done.

The Chronicles of Quiver Dick
You had my attention with the crazy name, but when I saw myself on that store page screenshot I was sold!
(Haha, so in all seriousness, anyone reading this will probably assume I have a biased opinion, considering the developers decided to toss me in their game. Fuck that though! I’m gonna be honest as fuck!)
First off, let me say this is a very short game. Shorter than ‘MaP’ (Metal as Phuk) but that’s kind of the point. It’s a quick and comfy adventure. Flooded with dialogue that eminates some (sweet, sweet) low-brow humour. Sometimes it’s great, and sometimes it falls flat; which leaves you waiting to move on to the next joke. It’s kind of like SNL in a way.

UPDATE: I have changed my review to negative, which is unfortunate. The developer has been proven to be a deplorable human being, and one that cannot be trusted. Do not support them. The game was fun, sure, but I’m not supporting this person anymore.
I, too, hope they cast a substantially less racist version of Mel Gibson in the movie about MY life. Guess I’ll have to settle for an awesome cameo in this game. (Seriously!)
And, while I have a cameo, I won’t let it affect my review of the game. I played and beat this in a single setting (took about 3 hours) and laughed so hard my throat still hurts. The game’s humor is crass, and in your face often, but it never feels overstated, nor does it seem ham-fisted. The pacing is well done throughout, and when a joke seems like it might be wearing out its welcome, it ends.

Dead Frontier 2
03/10/2020: Honestly big big step for open world ONLINE zombie games. Dont get me wrong it does have bugs but all games do at some point it gets better between all the positive comments and dedicated people willing to put in the effort within the community, being patient enough that good games dont come fast. 7/10 good game Needs work but all in all happy that DF2 might have a second break at being an awesome game on steam!!
8/17/2020: Update on my review. I started playing this game late last year on october of 2019. It had alot of bugs, not gonna lie yet so much progress has happened in those 10 months. The community has gotten less toxic from when i started playing because the people who stayed really loved the game. I have met alot of good players, friends in here who were kind and patient enough to teach new players how the game works. Y’all should really try it out. If ya need help message me in the game, ill be glad to lend a hand. - Damntrinity

TL,DR: As it is now, I can’t recommend this game at all, which are more accurately named “Left 4 Dead(-update) Frontier 2”
The developer of this game is a single, lone dev. There are credits to him since he managed to create all of this by himself. Unfortunately, this game is not Stardew Valley, and imo is not the type of game where you can realistically work alone and provide updates regularly. He does get help nowadays, but since the updates roll very slowly, most regular people that actually play this game in the past (not just start a new character, quit after 2 hours), stopped playing.

Deported: Drain the Swamp
It’s difficult for me to write an unbiased review, any games from Crankage Games are worth it just for the dialogues alone. Heck I’d play this just to read the cutscenes' lines. If you’ve played anything from Crankage Games before, you know what to expect. If you haven’t, what are you waiting for? They’re fun and they’re cheap.
This one is an arcade, old school gameplay. If you like a fun game without pretensions, just something fast and fun to play, give Deported a shot.

Today on my way home from work i stopped into a petrol station and snagged myself a chocolate bar for £1.15. I ate it in the car in just under 4 minutes, i enjoyed it. It probably did not do me any good but in the long term it wont have done me any harm.
When i got home i snagged a copy of Deported: Drain the swamp for 79p, i finished it in about half an hour. much better value than chocolate, and it was funny so it might of helped shed the choclate from my belly due to the light exercise of laughing.
