Surprised this game didn’t get more reviews.
This game plays somewhat like a Mystery Dungeon game, but at the same time an action RPG.
First of all, when you start the game you are greeted with an extensive options menu. You are able to optimize the game’s screen and sound by quite a bit, which feels really neat. Once you start in the game, it immediately brings you to it’s gameplay. The gameplay consists on moving around the field, when encountering enemies, you have the options of attacking head-front or performing counter attacks when they turn yellow, which happens when they attack you and miss.

When I heard vgperson translated it, I figured I’d give it a chance. (He translated a bunch of horror games like Ib, The Witch’s House, Mad Father…). And this is pretty good so far! Maybe a “One Way Heroics” meets “Card Captor Sakura” meets RPGmaker? No? Well, others will describe it better. I’ll just say check out the demo if it sounds curious to you. Maybe a proper review after I finish the game.
PS: the developers have been silently and quickly patching every issue I’ve encountered. They must be ninjas.

Space Drone: Rescue Mission
This is actually a good little puzzle adventure.
Rooms can get quite difficult as you proceed further into the game.
Also its cheap and entirely worth the modest price being asked.

Ok, this game has taken me by surprise. I was expecting something easy and fast, but this game has some puzzles that forced me to stop and think what am i doing - what isn’t something bad, to the contrary, is extremely good. It gets harder the more you progress, and i still didnt finished it (pretty close to the end tho), but, until now, i having lots of fun with this.

Advent Crossroad
I came across this game after searching for games like Etrian Odyssey & Shin Megami Tensei.
I’ll start with the positives :)
The good
The ‘vibe’ of the game is very similar to Devil Survivor, artwork is nice, story starts off nice and simple and gets more involving as you go through.
Battle system is similar enough to above mentioned games and also varied enough for you to get a kick out of organising your party with a selection of acquired skills (collected via getting hit by a monsters attack whilst you use a turn to absorb said monster skills).

A great dungeon crawling game! I had a lot of fun finishing it. The SMT inspirations did a great job here, btw! Can’t wait to see your next project and good luck!

Smart Gecko
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
– Real player with 4.3 hrs in game
(This game was received for curation with no promise of a review, positive or otherwise.)
Smart Gecko is essentially a simple variant of the “don’t cross your own path” puzzle sub-genre. It could have been a passable way to spend a little time, but for the fact that zero effort has been made to fix some pretty glaring issues.
It should have been simple: Move your gecko one space at a time in order to eat all the fireflies and finish the board. Yet there are multiple problems, least of all the lack of a tutorial. It seems like that would be unnecessary, but at least two of your losses will be figuring out that turning into a wall makes your gecko explode violently, as does walking into a pillar (in the game’s overhead view, the pillar looks like something you can walk over). There is no way to undo a bad move, which will happen more than you’d like due to the inexplicable lag after pressing a movement key. There is a timer that doesn’t seem to do anything, and no option to play without it. Finishing a level means you have to actually maneuver your gecko to the edge of the screen, and then press another key to move it off the screen. The problem with this (besides the obvious redundancy) is that you cannot tell where the actual correct path is. And since, as I’ve mentioned, there is no undo key, you’ll just have to start over.

Math Hero - Minimalist Puzzle
Saving the world through the power of math!

Simple puzzle game, sure, but it was fun and I did enjoy my playthrough. 50 levels is a tad bit short and I did accidentally restart a couple times, but overall not bad for a quick puzzle fix.

Atlas Rogues
I was a big fan of Atlas Reactor and plugged in almost 2000 hours into it having only played it between 2016 and 2019. I have nothing but fond memories of grouping up with my friends and if not achieving a consistent streak of victories, we always at least experienced some epic moments and mostly respectful and respectable opponents we could congratulate in the general chat after a match. The world, mechanics, and the vibe was so unique and I couldn’t get enough of it.
And then the servers were shutdown and I was left feeling a huge void in my gaming life not having a team based game to play with others. Nothing against Overwatch or Awesomenauts, as I played those to fill the void for a year, but they could never compare to this brilliant and unique experience. All of mid 2019 and mid 2020, I was wishing and hoping Atlas Reactor could somehow come back. Maybe Gamigo could give the former Trions staff another chance to revitalize the game with new content and a paid for model to afford the servers required to run it. Or maybe a group of dedicated fans can make a spiritual successor with similar mechanics but with a whole new set of characters in a brand new world.

Atlas Rogues, like most rogueish games of its kind, aims to have a solid mix of RNG, strategy, and skill all bundled together to create an experience that can prove reliably challenging while allowing to new flavours to spark up throughout each and every run as you unlock new characters, new abilities, and new questlines throughout your gameplay. It should be noted, that those seeking the time limited phase by phase PVP chess like arena experience of Atlas Reactor will likely not find it here as this game sits in a different genre using the same universe.

Very interesting brainteaser. If you liked Sokoban, this is for you.
Beware of trapping yourself! Use R to restart. Again. And again. And again.
All I wish for is more levels :pray:

This game makes me feel like I’m trapped in a meeting giving my presentation on why balogna and lasagna don’t rhyme but I’m really distracted by a lump on the neck of one of my coworkers and I’m trying to decide if it’s rude to tell them it might be cancerous and they might want to get it checked out and oh god my mouth stopped talking and everyone’s still staring at me what did I say while I was thinking
It’s a Sokoban. It has 9 levels. The levels made me feel inadequately clever; usually I can see the solution to these things right away but this was not always the case in this game. The music is fantastic.
