Spartoi Meadow
The missing link between the PS1 and Dreamcast®, it really feels like some an obscure 2006 Indie game you would find on some random site. I really like that aspect of it.
Pretty bare bones but it’s not intolerable, combat feels okay despite how simple and loose it feels. Its not the best but it works.
Bosses are annoying since they spam their attacks too often and they seem balanced around your partner distracting them for a bit.

The Bounty has to be one of the most unique games I’ve ever played. Myself coming from Nex Machina and Pacman 256. I needed another high scoring nostalgia type of game. And this is where the Bounty comes in. This is not your ordinary RPG game. It’s a high scoring RPG. A humorous one at that. This is described as a Dragon Quest type of game. Which could be true but I’ve never played those. But this game reminds me of nes classics like Zelda, Final Fantasy and Uncle fester’s quest(music wise). The music is really good in this game. Really captures the feel of the 8 bit era. The game is not super hard but challenging enough. The puzzles really challenge your common sense. I can even use a Dog whistle to signal a partner for my battle. Overall. It’s a fun game. I recommend playing this especially for $4.99. It’s really worth it.

CODE VEIN
The character customization alone makes this game worth the price of admission. But, if you don’t like souls-likes and the honestly pretty generic story and characters don’t entice you, this game is a hard sell. The game is honestly very pretty and the costumes are sick, though. Plus, if you don’t like souls-like games because of the difficulty, this one’s relatively easy when you have an ai companion with you. But real gamers play without a companion after the first playthrough. Anyway, i recommend this game while its on sale for anything above, say, %25.

Pretty nice anime Soulslike. I just finished the main story, played all the depths maps which are some lite equivalent of the Chalices in Bloodborne (except one i guess) and even beat the first of the 3 DLC’s called Hellfire Knight ( i was/am level 159 and it was still F’ing hard).
Apart from the difficulty of the DLC the rest of the game was not really as hard as i expected it to be based on what i read about this game, but very pleasant and fun to play anyway. Pretty similar to Nioh when it comes to enemy placement/ambushes.

Jin Conception
So far i like it.
– Real player with 19.2 hrs in game
I’ve wiped my old review clean and am going to be much more concise in this one - having played both the Steam and Switch versions of the game now, I can firmly say that if you plan to play this game at all, the Switch version is the way to go - though I would skip out on both. It has less RNG bullshit in it and the controls simply make more sense and it has overall less bugs, however…
Upon a second playthrough of Jin Conception (once on Steam, once on Switch), I can confidently say that… while there is some good here, the cons just definitely outweigh the bad. Even knowing the answers of who is friend and foe, there is virtually no way in the game to actually deduce this naturally. I had the benefit of speaking with the developer during my playthrough and was able to speak with him afterwards to try and clear up some misconceptions and unfortunately the conversation only proved to clarify what I feared: the story is in fact incomplete, with much of it simply not in the game.

Tropicalia
O jogo tem uma temática bem divertida, com elementos culturais do Brasil o que torna bem satisfatório de jogar. O que eu acho que poderia melhorar é a história ser mais relacionada, questão dos NPC’s darem dicas de onde você deveria ir para completar a história.

Worth trying out, and definitely suggest buying, but expect to face some frustrations (not shocking given the nature of early access).
The Pros:
Combat is pretty easy to figure out.
Fresh setting that stands out from similar games
Definitely feels retro.
If you feel you hit a wall, pretty grind-friendly.
Nice use of crafting and skill learning.
Needs Improvement:
Equipment relies heavily on crafting, which is nice, but it looks like your material inventory limit is 4, which feels way too low given how much you are expected to make/use while traveling.

Nioh 2 – The Complete Edition
Nioh 2 is a must buy for any soulsborne fan or people looking for Ninja type games. It’s way better, and I mean it…than Nioh 1, be it in terms fluidity, game balance, inventory management, combat is more polished and Yokai transformation mechanics is just a cheery on top of a cake. I had a blast going through the game and although the end game farming is kinda rough but it’s not something undoable, if you know the mechanics. As for bosses, Nioh 1 bosses are better lorewise, difficulty wise but Nioh 2 bosses are more fun to fight against. World design is more vibrant than Nioh 1 and to me, it’s even better than Dark Souls. Final rating, 8/10…damn near perfect souls like. Also, don’t buy this game for PvP, it’s non-existant.

Absolutely phenomenal. This game bumped Dark Souls as my favorite of all time with an asterisk that it owes much of its inspiration to the original “Souls-like.”
I see a lot of comments warning not to compare Dark Souls 3 to Nioh 2 because they are “completely different games.” This is a lie. Dark Souls 3 and The Sims are completely different games. Aside from both being Action RPGs, Souls and Nioh have a lot in common:
-Almost identical death system. Lose your experience unless you can touch your grave, keep your items.

Nioh: Complete Edition / 仁王 Complete Edition
One of the best rpg samurai games since ninja gaiden.

Soul-like but also different.
Sometime the game can get really frustrating but overall Nioh still a great game to play.

Anima: Gate of Memories - The Nameless Chronicles
This is more linear and shorter than the first game, but other than that it’s still solid and fun. Though this time you got a new meter resource instead of Mana, which is called Thanatos. When used it powers up your abilities to have different properties and such. Overall I would recommend the first game over this one, but if you’ve already played that one then this still worth buying.
As with the previous game, if you have ~200 FPS or more, the mouse sensitivity might be too low even on the fastest settings, as it was for me, but I solved it by limiting the frame rate of the game to 150.

The Nameless Chronicles plays much like its predecessor in regards to hack and slash and magic attacks. Despite that, I prefer the way Nameless moves and operates compared to The Bearer and Ergo. The story runs parallel with the first game, with that in mind there are fewer bosses and less to do as far as content. However, that doesn’t mean it is not as good as the first one. The same still cutscenes and OK dialogue are still present with much of the music being used from the first game. There are a few new tracks that I was really a fan of and really had me catching some feels in the tender moments of the story.
