Hardware Engineers
First of all, this game is AWESOME! You can play and have a good and educational experience.
History/Gameplay
The game has a history made by you, you have a computer store on the city and need to get reputation and money to your business. You can also build PCs to do Bitcoin mining to help with the monthly bills. So, the game have a really good topic, have good tutorials and a demo to you play before buy it.
Camera
On the camera you can feel a little unconfortable because it’s a little different from the other games, at least i feel that the controls are quite different but nothing that seriously. Rotating the objects using the middle mouse button (MB3) it’s a good thing but i’m not sure if everyone who plays this game know’s about this feature.

There are a few things to be aware of with this game.
1. This is not in Early Access or Beta anymore. As of April 22nd, 2019 this game is officially version 1.0. Things are pretty quiet from the developer so it is likely that any and all changes/tweaks to the game will be from the community via mods.
2. This game is not built on a pre-existing game engine and is not super optimized. It is a labor of love with some rough edges. I can run it on maximum 1080p settings on my Lenovo Yoga laptop, but it sounds like I am flying an airplane at takeoff.

Make Me LAG
Definitely an interesting game to try. Many games become easier when your pc is better. This is the only game that becomes harder as your processing speed gets higher. Beyond that, I just think it’s neat to see a game which has all of its gameplay outside of the game itself. You can play this game literally any way you want because in order to accomplish your purposes, you need to change your computer’s state, not control the game itself. I thought the description meant that there was actual gameplay, plus you had some sort of advantage if you got the game to lag. This was certainly different. There are literally no controls in the game. Every action happens based on your fps.

Make Me LAG is a free game with a new control scheme. It worked on Win 10, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. You have to make the game Lag to perform game moves. You sort of have to figure out how to make the game Lag consistently to actually succeed in this game. Has 5 open steam achievements. Has a timer that you have to beat.
Try it for the steam achievements.

Last Farewell
[DEV] We’ve been working on Last Farewell for 2 years(as of writing this review)
I’m super proud of what we have so far and what we’ve managed to achieve in this little time as an Indie Studio, we obviously have a long way to go in terms of content(which is why we’re in Early Access) but the core is there and I’m excited to keep building this game with our community!
Would def recommend!

After months of delaying my own input, I am now finally satisfied with my current opinion on Last Farewell. This review in no way favours anyone in particular, and is entirely made upon my experience with the game.
At first, Last Farewell seemed like an impossible success. When it released on October 16, 2020 (early access*) I couldn’t play for more than 1 game without encountering a game breaking and even game ending bugs. It was not a fun experience. Aside from the bugs, the game overall just didn’t feel fun. I decided to play a few months after.

Star Impact
Smooth game that plays at a great speed. Kept the challenge at a nice level for my kids and I. Was able to teach my kids about timing which is largely left out of a lot of games. Still playing it and trying to get top score. Well worth it!

If you like platformers this one is really cool! I am not the best at timing my jumps but this game is making me better! There Seems to be a lot of content to unlock if I keep playing too! Recommend to classic platformer fans especially. I’ll try and come back to my review once I get further, this game runs great and seems issue free for me though!

WAVER: A Typing Adventure
OMG I am already in love with this game!
– Real player with 32.0 hrs in game
Can type 100wpm. Cannot remember where keys are while playing. (Had fun anyway.)
Refreshing and unique, Waver definitely feels worth the purchase if you enjoy something both straightforward in concept and infuriatingly difficult to perfect. The rhythm of the “waves” will take some getting used to, however once you find it it makes sense (I found this difficult to admit, as my first instinct was to just be mad at the game). The learning curve is not the smoothest, but as you start to improve, receiving better scores/perfect waves is very satisfying. This game definitely feels more like it’s made for an experienced typist looking to test and refine skills/dexterity, as there are little to no practical educational aspects for younger learners (outside of typist mode, which is just your basic WPM typing test).

PC Building Simulator
Pretty relaxing, pretty awesome. When I first downloaded this game my knowledge of hardware was way worse than now. Thanks to this game I feel confident on building a PC. Yes, it’s not perfect. It does skip some parts of the PC building process and this might be bad if you’re trying to learn only through this game. Still, the gameplay is easy to learn and in some minutes you can master it. What made me play it so much was the campaign, that took me from a small company on red to one that builds expensive PCs everyday. Now with the IT expansion this experience is much more improved and it feels much better to play it. There is also the free build part, which basically consists in you being able to build a PC with whatever components you want. Even with all these great things, I think there should more customizable features such as choosing another OS or moving the peripherals. These are certainly not necessary as the game already works perfectly, but it would be cool if they added things like that. Another suggestion would be to implement a multiplayer system, which you could build PCs with your friend. Also not necessary, but me and my friends would love it.

Relaxing little grind game that gives you a fresh perspective on PC building (it doesn’t just blow Nividia weiner) and is great to do while watching shows or movies!
P.S. messing around and making super computers on someones $1200 budget is always hilarious
