The youngest Nobel Prize winner Minna Vellamo is assigned with the mission of finding back lost stars. She chose to be accompanied by a robot named Harvey for him being a …robot. Little does she know, Harvey is the clumsiest and most talkative robot ever.
One day before departure, Minna was told that “Electric Eel” Janus White will also be joining the team. Being depressed for a very long time since retirement, the former footballer signed himself up to the project. He believed that this is the only opportunity to find back his old-day glory and to prove to the public that he is still a hero.
Will Janus achieve what he is looking for? Often described as bold, independent and determined, will Minna get along well with Janus?

Thousand Threads
Thousand Threads is a game about walking through beautiful landscapes and the mysteries that emerge in the distance. You deliver mail, and, if you’re curious, peek at the letters before passing them off. You discover ruins, and wander through the ancient stones hoping to find something that could tell you about the world you’re in. You stumble through woods into the path of a bear, and then flee the bear only to bump into a passing stranger. The bear attacks the stranger instead. Maybe you beat down the distracted bear, and heal the stranger if they fall. Maybe you let the bear subdue the stranger, and loot the body after.

This… is a weird recommendation to make. I had a lot of fun with Thousand Threads, but I don’t think it succeeds at being what it clearly, explicitly sets out to be. To give it a thumbs down would be dishonest - I enjoyed this game for what it is! But what it is involves a tremendous breakdown between intent and execution.
I wouldn’t call it a good game. I WOULD call it an interesting one.
Thousand Threads is a game that wants to be a human connection simulator and is instead more of a frontier justice simulator. You deliver letters between a fairly large number of ambulatory cardboard standees who are more or less machines of petty grievance and aggravated assault. You wander beautiful environments, picking flowers, beating wolves to death with the world’s strongest stick, and also beating whatever NPC decides to ambush you on the road to death, also with the world’s strongest stick.

Furry Finder - Dating Visual Novel
Furry Finder is a visual novel game about finding the love of your life. After turbulent moments in your life, you will have to stand up to your shyness.
The main goal of the game is to use a dating app called “Furry Finder” and give Alexis (the main protagonist) a chance to find true love. Despite breaking up, Sophie (Alexis’s longtime girlfriend and now good friend) is always with us to give us many useful tips such as flirting advice. You have to remember that everything you do will affect your future. If you don’t like someone, it doesn’t mean you have to spend time with this person. Remember, it’s your life! Since the love meter does not function as much as it does in other games, you must choose your choices carefully. The game will end in a variety of ways: you could become a master of flirting and find true love, or you could end up being alone. Let’s get started! Everything is in your hands!
⭐ Interactive phone with the dating app, and funny pictures.
⭐ You decide with whom you connect your future.
⭐ Your decisions have an impact on the behavior of the characters and the ending of the novel.
⭐ Computer graphics (CG) created specifically for times that represent the action of the characters.
⭐ Artwork that has been beautifully painted.
⭐ multiple endings.
⭐ Great soundtrack.

The Wanderer: Frankenstein’s Creature
As someone who thoroughly enjoys story-heavy games, I knew that I was in for a treat when I got the opportunity to play The Wanderer: Frankenstein’s Creature (by developer La Belle Games and publisher ARTE France), from the name alone. True to its title, the game heavily incorporates its source material, Mary Shelley’s notorious novel Frankenstein. However, the game has more to offer than simply story. It not only leaves open opportunity for a few diversions from the original and infamous tale, but also gives the player an artistically engaging and awing experience, that gives new dimensions to an otherwise complete character and story.

I could continue on about how the music is incredible (if Gris met Octopath Traveler) or how the visuals are some of the best you’ll see this year, but honestly, words feel cheap when it comes to recounting what I experienced. This is really one of those games that can change you because it makes you feel something that you thought you’d lost in your youth and would never experience again. Yet that reaction I had after the first stone was cast awakened in me something absolutely visceral — the pain and suffering of rejection by others due to the abandonment of those who were supposed to care for you. My creator, neglectful, should have gently eased me into my understanding of the world and shielded me in my youth; instead, I painfully learned that others feared me, and I, in turn, feared them.

Virtual Vacations
‘‘Wow, This is Much Better than I Expected!’’
I wasn’t impressed with exploring the golden beaches of KiruKuru~ Very limited Area and Not Much to do.
So, I wandered around and found a ‘‘Big Red Button’’ Once I pressed it. I was Wrapped back in to the Main Lobby Room of Virtual Vacations where I had 3 other Options/Windows to Check Out!
I moved to the next one,
Hit the ‘‘Big Red Button’’ and it Wrapped me Back to the same Location I just came out of except this time it was at Night Time.
I quickly found Three (3) New Buttons Lined up. Small Blue Button, Medium yellow Button, and another Big Red Button. Curiously, I Quickly Tapped the Buttons starting with the Small Blue one and Holy Shhh.. Some Fireworks shot into the Sky from a distanced. I followed the Fireworks up and Tilt My Head All the Way and Wow, That was Awesome! I then Hit the Yellow Button and Again More Fireworks Shot into the Sky. These were better that the Last! and then, I Hit the ‘‘Big Red One’’ and This was like a Firework Finale. I then started hitting all three button together and Now I know what they meant by Create your very own Firework Show!

Snow Scout
In this exploration adventure on skis, which is experienced in virtual reality, you take a well-deserved time out. After everything that happened recently, you figure you really need to take a break and get away from it all. You sign up for a volunteer job with the Snow Scouts, a non-profit organisation that runs some ski resorts high in the mountains. You will be responsible to fix up an entire valley all by yourself, only being guided by your supervisor via radio. You’ll try out and open all the different ski slopes, test the snow cover for any avalanche risk, and if need be, set off a calculated avalanche to ensure safety for others. Maybe you’ll even come across some rare alpine birds, get a chance to open new paths and get to know your supervisor - and maybe even yourself - a little better through radio conversations. Up here in this pristine mountain environment, you all alone in nature, nothing can go wrong. Or can it?
