As someone who has nearly all the achievements and an ironic amount of playtime at the moment of reviewing, I feel as though I am legally obligated to review this game.

I’ll spare you the history lesson here, as you probably know what Among Us is. I’ll just talk about the new update and my experience with it. The new update includes 4 new roles, 3 of them are for Crewmates and the other is for Impostors. Scientist, Engineer, Guardian Angel, and Shapeshifter. The Scientist can access the Vitals from anywhere, and any time. Engineers can vent, just like Impostors. Do note that the abilities of Scientist and Engineer get disabled if the Comms Sabotage occurs. The Guardian Angel is given to you upon being voted out or being killed by an Impostor. It allows you to break the game by shielding Crewmates and disabling an Impostor’s Kill Button for an entire round. The Shapeshifter is an Impostor-Exclusive, and allows you to become any Crewmate that is/was alive during a current round. Anybody from a previous round cannot be shifted into.

Dread Hunger

PROS:

Addictive

Great unique art style

Polished mechanics despite being in early access

Immersive level design

Kind and caring community (great for making new friends)

Developers listen to the community

Every match is different from the last

CONS:

Limited tools to deal with trolls and grifers creating scenarios where people will rejoin after being kicked (occasional griefer/troll)

Deception tools are very easy to counter when with an experienced crew making it a choir to play as a thrall encouraging a PvP style of play

I do wish there was a yes and no option to recommend. If you have 7 other friends with you then yeah I would recommend this to you. If not then enter at you’re own risk of some pretty toxic people. Meta gaming. ect. Not all the time but a good majority. You may say well just kick them but they can keep joining back. there is no ban option and the few good group of people out here had to make a list of griefers and toxic people to avoid and kick because the devs have not given us the tools to do so in lobby and all. I say once you get kick it should be you can not join back that lobby. There is not much good communication between the community and the devs since they mainly care about the few streamers who play there game. Which I see from a company money making point of view can be good. Keep the streamers happy and into the game to keep streaming there game and possibly get more buyers. But it sucks for the rest of us who have to put up with all the glitches still in the game and getting bad responses from the devs. They balance the game around potential griefers instead of outright dealing with the griefers/ giving hosts the tools to deal with them. Wile focusing on other thing’s instead of this big issue the game is currently having. Anyone will hate having thrall and to have some Meta gaming people ruin that by giving info from the game through discord instead of through the game like it should be. I’m danm well sure I have had this happen with Streamers and I have had other say they had this issue as well and problems with some streamers on here doing these kind of thing. Having very little ways to combat this ourselfs as players even if we have video proof nothing get’s done about it and that’s why I can’t support this game till this issue is resolved which I really hate. I really enjoyed playing this game and still do when it’s friends.

Suspects: Mystery Mansion

Игра с ужасным, конченным, токсичным RU(даже не CIS) комьюнити; редикми обновами; дорогим донатом но ска родная и все равно классная. Рекомендую, но только если играть через эмулятор. А если понравится то только тогда брать на ПК. ZAKARxROXIE.

Saboteur

In a game of one versus up to six other players both teams need to use observational skills and planning to succeed.

There are 12 objectives spread across three floors. You have 30 minutes. There are 6 Security Forces and the Saboteur only needs 6 objectives to win. Play too passive as Security and you lose.

Play too aggressively as the Saboteur and you’ll give yourself away.

Security has to be careful though, kill a scientist and the Saboteur wins. Kill the Saboteur and you win. If the Saboteur can’t get enough objectives in time Security wins.

The Saboteur

You have to achieve your objective of sabotaging enough critical areas while blending in with the AI controlled scientists. Don’t draw any unwanted attention. Observe and mimic the scientists.
You have several tools to your advantage, like the ability to sabotage lights and doors among others.
With greater mobility you can outmanoeuvre Security Forces if you play smart.

Security Forces

Deduce the identity of the Saboteur by observing the scientists.
Patrol and defend the critical stations from sabotage.
Work together with the rest of the Security Force, communication is key.

Fear Surrounds

Very fun, but if you’re an English player, use your phone for Google Translate, because global servers are empty. Only Chinese players are on the game. Even with the language barrier, this is a fun game which is always suspenseful but fun. I wish there was a better English tutorial because I am clueless about the rules of the game.

The graphics are outdated, but they work very well. I prefer them being low quality. It adds that 2000s PS1/PS2 horror feel to it. The only thing I dislike is the blinding whiteness when you look at another player with a flashlight, and the goofy animations. Other than that, this game is well worth the price and I encourage anyone to try it.

so far for most of my play time is finding a match and when I do the time it takes for people to talk for 2 minutes or 120 seconds is long and I think I get the idea of why but feels like you might as well leave to do something especially on your phone. I think of games like among us with how it is not that long since if you have 13 players you will be waiting until 26 mins (2 minutes for each player to speak) to vote. So far after this I can’t seem to find any matches for global and only on arena and when I try to find a match people just level requirement to join. So far from my experience I can’t recommend this game even through it didn’t cost much to buy. Something needs to be done to encourage more player growth I am not sure what they can do. but I do see potential for this game. just doesn’t seem to be doing that well where I can recommend anyone playing this game. After playing more I got kicked out of a match that is not good for a only multiplayer anyone who has played rainbow six siege back during the vote to kick wars know this is not a good idea since out group and in groups occur and people can ruin a match the fun for you when especially your in church in the game. I can only play in foreign lobby so I can not participate in discussion during the church due to language barrier. This is not fun and good for foreigners or anyone trying to play the game neither is recommonding discord a solution since I can’t get successful for it on another game.

Stowaway

This game is an absolute masterpiece. The graphics are so good I had an eyegasm just watching the trailer. This game play is like sex for your fingers. I cannot stress how amazing this game is, this game is easily game of the year without a second thought. The stowaway is one of the most innovative and original idea’s ever conceived by humans. I bought this game and it was so amazing that I had to buy it for my entire friends list as well. If you haven’t bought this game, make up for your sins buy purchasing it twice! Theres also lots of homie sex, dw we had socks on.

So, let me start off this review by saying that this game is the literal work of Christ, it is an S tier game. Ever since 2020 has started, everything has been going downhill, nothing good was happening in the world. However, this all changed when this God-given game, Stowaway, came out. This game is very goofy and is really fun, so Ima try to get some goons to play this game together. When I first saw this game and my buddy showed it to me, I laughed at this game and didn’t think much of it. After playing the game for a bit, though, I realized that is game is so much more fun than I could ever have expected.
