Bed Survival!
This was really good actually, the dialogue was pretty good, liked light hearted stuff a lot, and the darker stuff was good too. Definitely worth $0.99 to say the least. The game takes 2 hours for that price fyi, not bad at all.

The game is just so horrible that I will not even play if the developer pays me to do so.
1. The story is just so stupid and stupid long, 75% story time and minimum play time.
2. Stupid long story time is not bad enough, they even trying to give you stupid dumb story. The ending is just, “What happened ?”
3. This “thing” costs RM15.5 … Just how did they priced this “Thing”
4. Lousy gameplay as you only need to apply what you learnt twice…Literally
Bought this game as the developer’s first game is amazing…But this….Just don’t buy it

Legend of Homebody
Game is addictive. Simple interface, but the game itself is challenging on some modes (Shen has a mental breakdown every time. I’ve gotten close to beating it, maybe another 20 hours…) If you enjoy having to actually pay attention to what you are doing and work for a win then this is a great game. I wish there were more characters, because I can honestly see myself playing this game on and off for years.

The game is more challenging than any other life sims I have played. Each character have their own story and 2 years of game play. The hardest to play was the female. Always died cause of pressure.
Could have options when interacting with the others and different scenarios…

Space to Grow
Honestly I felt the game went for quantity over quality with the concepts and characters. I’d pay 4.99 on this, but I regret spending 9.99. The initial game “Our Personal Space” was very adorable and I thought about the game well after I stopped playing, which is why I caved and bought this. It’s obvious a lot of effort and care was put into this game, but i think if it would of taken longer and the team gave more time to the development, it would of been a much more well rounded, in-depth game.

Overview
Full disclosure: I am married to one of this game’s developers! That said, here is my honest review.
I feel that this game fills a really excellent niche that I haven’t seen much elsewhere. It delivers a mix of visual novel, simulation, and choose-your-own-adventure elements, and provides a fun what-if romp filled with parenting decisions, space colonization struggles, farm management tradeoffs. I’ll go over some of the main elements below.
Overall
We’ll start with the overview, then get into the details further on down.

古代人生 Ancient Life
This is a charming ancient life sim game.
While the controls and concept can be a bit difficult to master, once you get the hang of the game this is an absolute delight. For those that like dynasty games like cursader kings-why on earth is this not a cateogry of games on steam?-will be happy to know this game follows that concept of a dynasty rpg with an even closer lence than in crusader kings. There are many life paths for characters to experience and many mini-games to play to advance along these life paths. The majority are a lot of fun and give a nice taste of the ancient life.

it is fun to play but I don’t recommend
too difficult to earn income
1). sell crickets: this is best way to earn income so far
2). crickets tournament:
only won provincial match once
… even your opponent’s bugs were weaker than yours but you still lost the game - make no sense to me
3). Special products: once your honor value reach each threshold (100, 200, 300), you will unlock different special product (max 3 kinds per city) … and here is a bug.
you can buy the highest rank special product, but you won’t have earn any income once you sell it ..

I think this game has potential. In its current state it’s quite buggy and the English translation is far from good. I would not say this is all that much like the game Chinese Parents and when you run out of vitality it’s instant game over (you can restart from a previous save if you remembered to do so).
Only real issue I ran into was a bug where I couldn’t leave my room after taking the rather long college exam introduction and getting over 600. Could not click the door to leave no matter what after clicking all the little tutorial icons and such. The company has a gameplan so I would like to see what’s to come.

ArcticBoy: The Interactive Story
Genius Kojumbo Does it AGAIN!
– Real player with 1.7 hrs in game
Another completely whacked out story line game from this developer, this time it’s a story about internet romance gone horribly wrong!
I will say that this game is well worth the price tag.. but NOT as a game for “you” to play yourself.
.. By far, the best value in this game is to GIFT it to someone you want to troll and tell them just to play it. Then watch them as they get hooked enough or curious enough as I was.. to play it all the way through to the end! Haha!
My Score.. To play it yourself.. 2 out of 10. My Score to troll as friend as a meme: 9.7 out of 10!

Citizen of Rome - Dynasty Ascendant
I would not recommend the game. Seems to have been abandoned. And any feedback on historical inaccuracy of the game has been ignored. Visual style is fun and nice.
The reality is that it is a super addictive “mobile type” game. Which is why I have racked up so many hours in it. You can play it anywhere, at any time. And you can just open and close it. So it’s ideal for killing time while waiting for a stream to start, etc.
But. The fact remains. It’s woefully factually inaccurate. And for things that would be easy to fix, (e.g. Consuls could only run every 10 years, you can run every year in the game - women can have jobs that were exclusively for men, women can also go for education that was exclusively for men in ancient Rome). The only way to make any upward social mobility is through the annual betting activities. Which is quite a hack to be honest, because when you have played the game for as many hours as I have, you can actually tell which sequence of results you will be getting.

First impression:
This game needs a major fix. The randomness to it is out of control. Lazy programming seems to have just assigned ranges of behavior that consistently contradict your own strategy. Any game designed so that you can put in an hour of work only to have everything fall apart because of a dice roll is poorly designed. If I want to sit on my floor and roll a 10-sided die 400 times hoping to never roll a 1 lest I should become the book of Job, I can do that by getting a die out of my old box of Risk and wasting my time on hope.

Raziel
“They say Hell lies in other people, but I don’t think it’s worse than living with your own past. Those people barely grasp what Hell can really be."
Synopsis
You are Avoir Cafard, a miserable, dull man that lives in a dirty and deplorable apartment, in a forsaken town with sad people and monotonous situations.
Avoir works in a local church as a spiritual counselor for people who have problems with life, either because of friendships, love, work, or family.
During five days, he will attend five different people with different situations that are disturbing them.
Taking them for a walk.
Talking to them for a while.
Making them see that things are not so bad as they imagine.
Maybe that will help them, somehow.
While at it, Avoir is also trying to solve his own problems. Problems about his own past.
He wishes to forget it at all costs.
Sadly, memories from an eternity seem impossible to forget.
About
Raziel (Rah-ziih-ell) is an adventure_-esque_, atmospheric and utterly poetic game where you wander about solving small tasks and talking to people. It aims to be a character study of five distinct people and their stream of consciousness, while also being a tale about introspection, alienation, nostalgia, loneliness, and the human condition.
The game is set within five days of Avoir’s life. In each of them, you meet a different person which you must help to ease their struggles about life while discovering new things about Avoir himself.
While not taking care of them, you are free to wander about in the city talking to its inhabitants and maybe even helping them along the way.
It revolves in five chapters with a prologue, two interludes, and an epilogue.
It was made using RPG Maker 2000, using everything the engine has to offer.

Friend ReQuest - A Playable Teaser
Most of the game is pretty boring, so as to show how dull this person’s life really is. However, that doesn’t exactly make it enjoyable to play, and there’s barely any story for the first half of the game. Then, for the second half, there’s more story, but less to do in general.
I also have a habit of pressing esc to check my stats/ pause the game, and that exits this game. There is no save function, so I had to restart. They do tell you that there is no save function at the beginning of the game though.

I’m sooooo excited for Amity Chain and this really sold it! Amity feels so real and all her conversations are so fleshed out I’m really looking forward to seeing more from her and other characters. Really neat spritework that I’m also excited to see more of!
Tip: stick around at the “end” of the game when the screen goes white!

Interesting little time management/dating sim game. The art and sprites are pretty original. There are a few points that could be polished and maybe add some saucier H features, but overall its quality is above other chinese games of the genre. I believe this is the first title published on Steam by the dev, I’m certainly in for future releases or more DLCs for this title.
