Airport Madness 3D

Airport Madness 3D

Some would call me a hardcore Airport Madness fan. They are probably right. I’ve poured hundreds of hours into this franchise from the PC browser days, to the mobile apps, to the standalone PC versions, and on to repurchasing and clocking hours on the other 4 titles here on Steam. The developer himself is an air traffic controller, and I’ve probably dealt with more digital aircraft than he’s handled real planes. (Although he has a much better safety record than I do!).. So I openly admit that even as a 33 year old man, I giggled like a strange psychotic Schoolgirl when this game was announced.

I’m biased because I have all Airport Madness games. Airport Madness 3D could not be missing in the collection so i was fortunate to get the game as a birthday present.

If you have played previous versions of Airport Madness, the game play won’t be that different. You need to click slightly below the airplane to get the menu and in my experiance the sky cam view is the best way to play. Tower view is my second choice.

Although the game is not yet bug-free, i can’t think of a big negative (yet). The positive is future airport additions and of course the possible addition of the workshop. Looking forward of spending more time in the game.

Drill Deal: Borehole (Alpha)

Drill Deal: Borehole (Alpha)

Alpha seems pretty solid. At about 4.8 hours, the pathing for the workers when crazy. Poor guys standing right next to a canteen couldn’t find the entrance and got mad at me, some tried to walk off the edge of the platform, a few couldn’t find a resting place, despite numerous housing buildings available.

[edit] 12 hours: The game still is running well. I had one crash where some buttons could not be pushed, but it went away with continued play. Employees still get trapped periodically. I’ve tried different ways to free them up (destroying the building, changing jobs, etc), but firing seems to be the only effective solution (why is it always a level 4 driller? ~sad face~). Bridges can’t be deleted, which is an inconvenience. I find the game relaxing. It isn’t very challenging yet, but in time I can see different maps getting more and more difficult as they are added. Prices for new contracts seems a bit low. A player might pay 1600 to unlock it, but will earn back an infinite amount. Perhaps contracts should be renegotiated after X number of sales.

This will most likely be a pleasant management game to play.

During the alpha I found two things that was quite annoying.

First was that there seems to be no way to demolish platforms.

Second was that the workshop didn’t cover new platforms so on the 2x7 platform you’d have to sacrifice 4x4 space for a workshop.

And very “alpha” specific I found that the canteen upgrade was isled among alpha-locked upgrades in the tech tree. Rendering it unreachable but implemented.

This is the type of game I wouldn’t pay more than 9-12€ for,

Furry Shakespeare: Dreamin' of One Lazy Dead Midsummer

Furry Shakespeare: Dreamin' of One Lazy Dead Midsummer

Come celebrate Camp Chuckerwood’s 100th year!

It’s Midsummer Night’s Dream meets Friday the 13th, as you work as a camp counselor for the the bloodthirsty, training them to become the next generation of horror icons! The world needs these creatures of the night in order to keep the magic and imagination of the world alive, which is odd, considering these are all slashers and other types of movie monsters.

As Bray the Manticore, you enter Camp Chuckerwood, located on the edges of Lake Quiet Waters, wide eyed and ready to change the lives of your campers. What you get is two Fae Lords in the middle of a break-up, a Sasquatch intent on revenge, a giant wasp doing community service, and a werewolf head counselor at the end of her rope. Also, there’s another, different werewolf at the end of her rope as well, but we don’t want to spoil the entire game for you.

Interact with eight fellow summer counselors and up to four budding legends of horror! Survive the summer play, the summer sportsball game, the typical summer camp horror/slasher experience, and summer rivalries!

Fun is mandatory. Survival is not.

Kujlevka

Kujlevka

Russia, 1992. The ordinary village of Kujlevka is no stranger to challenging times. In this dark and otherworldly period of Russian history, the current financial crisis and rising crime rates appear bleak in comparison. And when ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓, it’s up to you to ▓▓▓▓▓. Of all the locations on Earth, this forgotten settlement becomes a bustling center for science, exploration, and the supernatural; you’re merely the poor chap whose home became the saucer’s crash site.

Assuming the role of the kolkhoz’s headmaster, you must ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ before ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓. These guests from outer space are in no hurry to interact with humans, they’d much rather ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ and steadily observe our species and our vast dreams and desires. What exactly might these extraterrestrial beings have planned?

Features

They come in peace! Maybe — This isn’t your stereotypical ▓▓▓▓ encounter. You will be tasked to learn about these otherworldly beings before they can properly study you.

Take a shot, get political — Kujlevka takes place during a time of political onslaught in Russia and, given the circumstances, navigating the community will prove to be its own mission.

Russian nostalgia — While many may find the kolkhoz setting new, Russian players may have a sense of deja vu at this time capsule settlement. We want you to long for an experience you may have missed…

Write your own story — Your decisions influence the story and impacts the world around you. Choose wisely.

Little Dragons Café

Little Dragons Café

As a lover of relaxing games like Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing, I thoroughly enjoyed this game.

The world is adorable, as are the characters. Being able to fly freely is something I’ve really wanted in a game, and Little Dragon’s Café has a great mechanic for flying.

Although I didn’t like that the characters make wide turns, I quickly got used to the controls. In fact, this helps during battle because you can buy your dragon time to kill the creature by making it do a wide turn.

The story isn’t amazing, but it’s rather cute. Overall, I do like the variety of characters, although many of them were kind of mean and unpleasant at first.

This review has been edited to reflect new information.

Update: Since My Time at Portia fans/marketing are review bombing this game (and other, similar titles) to try to destroy Portia’s competition? I wanted to draw attention to how both Portia and Little Dragon’s Cafe have the same Metacritic score (I’m using the Switch version of LDC as the PC version doesn’t have enough reviews to be comparable).

The Woodworker

The Woodworker

The Woodworker is a moody first-person simulation adventure set in a dark urban world teeming with business opportunity.

Sometime around like 1996, in a northern american city, with resources abundant yet seemingly always out of economic reach, you decide to open a woodworking shop. Surely independence and honest grit will lead to a prosperous future. All we have to do is find the right tools, the right materials and the right market; How hard could it be?

On this journey you’ll have to balance shop inventory and tool upgrades against your own personal needs of food and shelter. Equipped with a small budget you’ll have to learn actual woodworking techniques to build furniture, invest in higher tolerance machines and practice the craft of networking in order to grow the small business into a sustaining empire. Constantly threatened by the urban barrens you’ll fight with both gallery owners and local riffraff to the point where that trusty chisel may have some alternative uses…

The Question

At what point does morality give way to economic incentives?

Airport Madness: World Edition

Airport Madness: World Edition

This game starts out as a very interesting and challenging casual simulation. Other reviews have gone over the details of the basic game so I won’t repeat them here. You can gradually ramp up the challenge level as your experience increases, but this is where you start to notice problems. This game has a number of serious bugs which only appear when you are dealing with busier, high-pressure scenarios with a number of aircraft. By the time you get to this level, you are going to be WELL past your refund limit, so you end up getting stuck and frustrated.

It’s not trying to be an Air Traffic Controller simulator (ATC)!

Okay, now THAT is out of the way, about the game…

Airport Madness is a casual game. It’s also a fun and compulsive game (you’ve been warned)! It’s not even trying to be a simulator, but instead more of a lightweight time-filler for when you’re done playing your big, serious games. You take control of departures and arrivals with the sole purpose of keeping everything moving without colliding using simple point and click. There are four modes you can play, like handling 100 planes, time-trials or seeing how much of a score you can build as traffic becomes heavier and heavier, and there are eight international airports where runway positioning changes the challenge. As soon as aircraft collide, it’s game over (it’s no good hoping no-one noticed that explosion on runway 25L) and as traffic builds, you’re really striving for score, efficiency and time limits rather than acting the serious role of an ATC. I like it for that. I have ATC simulators already. I didn’t have a fun, lightweight version.
