Batu Ta Batu
batu ta batu would be a pretty cool matching game, not your typical match-3 variety, but mostly broken controls make it largely unplayable. the store page says keyboard supported (as if it should be a feature in a pc game), but it just means the game sometimes reacts to keypresses somehow.

12 orbits
Wow. Wow, wow, wow. For this price, I have never played a game with this much quality. The 3D graphics are stunning and are sometimes not seen in games worth $5 or more. Again, the game is worth buying just for its quality. Not to mention the control screen is as easy as pressing a button. The game is as simple as that, too! However, we haven’t even gotten to the actual game yet.
So, what is the game, you ask?
This game has 4 different modes with 7 total variations total. Arena and Trails are free-for-all modes, Blizzard and Multiball are team modes, and Arena, Trails, and Blizzard have practice variations. For every mode, there are 7-8 maps you can play on. On these map, there are circles of various sizes and location through it. After you select your button, you can press the button when in the circles to go around them in an orbit (hence “orbits” in the title). When you press your button outside the circle, you dash forward, which can be beneficial or hurtful, depending on the mode. You can always tell the direction of your character by looking at where the arow points. It never breaks physics, but it is helpful for when you have a lot of characters on the screen, and a small bit of color isn’t enough to keep your eye focused. In addition, there are modifications for the four multiplayer modes, giving you flexibility and countless arangements of fun! Lastly, if you are in a circle and an opponent or sphere hits you, your orbit will break unless you hit your button immediately afterwards. Alright, let’s go on to the modes!

TL;DR - A simple look with a simple mechanic. Good amounts of options, yet feels pretty samey after a while. It’s a party game that really tries, but never reaches it’s true potential. 7/10
12 orbits seemed interesting. The ability to play with 12 players with the usage of just a button each is incredible. With simple taps, everyone would take control their character without losing focus on what lies ahead. The concept comes together in four different modes that anyone can get into easily. The major question is, obviously, are these modes even entertaining to play. Personally I had a hard time figuring this out.

Ruckus Ridge VR Party
Oculus Rift + Touch
I’ve played this game fairly extensively, but I only recently purchased it for myself (so I don’t have a lot of playtime logged on my account).
This is a really fun game. Whatever else you want to say about it, it’s a great party game. And for a system that doesn’t have a lot of fun local multiplayer games, I’m very pleased with it. Ruckus Ridge is a great way to show people VR and it allows you to take advantage of the 2 levels of technology. Everyone gets to take a turn in the headset and try different challenges.

When I originaly bought Ruckus Ridge I didn’t think I was going to enjoy it that much, I simply wanted a game that would work with a group of friends that were coming over. Ruckus Ridge proved me wrong and ended up being a much better experience that I had anticipated. My friends and I played for 2 hours straight, the whole time laughing our asses off.
Each level has it’s own twist to it with the objective, but basically having the controller-players pit against each other to complete an objective all while trying to avoid being killed by the one on the Vive. After each level, the Vive get’s passed to a randomly selected controller player and the two switch.

Fight Party
Loving this game in the short time I’ve played! I must have said to the two people I was playing with that I’d stop for the night about 10 times. Finally, I had to just force myself to close the game so I could be up for work the next morning.
This is a very fun and engaging party game. At the time I’m posting this, there is a single player Hunger Games style FFA where you face a handful of CPUs, if you can’t or don’t want to play multiplayer. Speaking of the multiplayer, it supports up to 32 players and provides a good number of different maps/biomes to fight to the death on.

This game, despite being simple in concept, is un ironically the most fun I have had with a party game in quite sometime. This isn’t due to a lack of searching either, I own xbox gamepass, I own a switch, both have an amazing selection of party games ranging from Overcooked to Mario Party, that said, this game’s dumb fun value is nothing to scoff at. If you have a group of friends, say 3 or 4, this game is absolutely worth the price of admission if updated beyond its current state. Keep at it Mr. Vibin.

Party Panic
Party Panic is the best Mario Party like game on Steam for Linux. With more than 30 minigames, 4 Player local and online multiplayer, A drinking game and more it surely is a must have party game.
The game is playable with up to 4 players, You can mix Local and Online players, So you can play with 2 online 2 local or anyway you want. You can also enable bots, which are balanced pretty well, They offer a good challenge. There is also a built in drinking game you can apply to most gamemodes, where the worst performing player has to drink after each minigame. This ofcourse makes you perform even worse the next game.

Can’t Drive This
You have a friendship that needs to put on a test?
This is your tool, and you’ll even end up having a ton of fun!
“Can’t Drive This” is a party-game to give you and your friends a lot of reasons to yell at each other and a reason for that making-it-all-up-again-cold-beverage afterwards.
The objective is simple: One builds a neat driving track, while the other has to drive it (yes, WHILE it is being built) and the driver must (in all Speed-ish style) not drop below a certain speed.
But that’d be way too simple, there is un-simplifying obstacles like windmills you can crash into, trapdoors you can fall down in, pinball bumpers that almost literally bump’n’kick you out of the screen, and many, many more the driver will hate the builder for placing right in front of them.

Let’s be honest, you look at this game and what do you think? Probably something like: hey, that looks cute, probably fun for a couple of hours but not really something I’d buy.
This game is by no means perfect, but it is AWESOME. When I think of things to compare it to, I think games like Super Smash Bros. or the classic Pole Position. It’s just the most hype inducing, focus requiring, shout inspiring, frustrating game ever. It looks easy enough, “oh, I’ll just drive slow.” Nope. “I’ll just go straight.” You’re funny. “How bout I just throw away this piece.” Good luck with that.

8Bit Fiesta - Party Game
8bit fiesta is the greatest party game ever created. My hours represent about half the time I have in 8bit due to one of my other bois having it and putting in work on that steam account as well. We have gladly pulled elbows over UFO Contact. A wise man in our group once said “there is nothing I respect more than 8bit.” I couldn’t agree more. We love it so much that we even created a team mode because we got tired of waiting for 8bit 2. For those interested in the team game we use the rules below.

Multiplayer (especially Fiesta Mode for irresponsible adults) is fantastic. Totally worth the money. I’ve had hours of fun with friends playing through the myriad of minigames, and my friends that don’t even like playing video games still enjoy this game.
I find it interesting that the load screen always stops on the “Bull Shit” game splash screen during multiplayer - except when it is going to be that minigame. Minor inconvenience. (Has no effect on gameplay.)
NOTICE: THE REVIEW FROM THIS POINT IS FOR ONLY THE SINGLE PLAYER MODE OF THE FULL GAME.

Speed Mazing
I’m not sure how I stumbled across this game but its a really fun little party game. It kinda reminds of Micro Maniacs back on the PSX even though this doesn’t have weapons, or anything like that, it feels similar. You have to race against the clock to get to the finish square in 1 player. In local MP you are competing with other players to reach the finish square first.
The 1 player is essentially time trial across certain levels and unlocking Gold, Silver and Bronze achievement times.
The MP is local only but its a lot fun if you have people to play with. As with these types of games its reliant on playing with other people to get the most fun out of it but its great for short play bursts with friends if you have people to play with.

Cymatically Muffed
The good:
Lots of fast fun frenetic action, plenty of game modes.
Audio track is decent.
Good menus, extensive controls and customization.
Responsive, capable developer.
The bad:
Hard to see some items, visual style is lacking and can make things unclear sometimes.

I’ve played the local multiplayer several times with friends and have had a great time playing. The variety of game types and settings provide a lot of options for replayability. I can’t wait to play the campaign once it is released, especially since it can be played coop. Cymatically Muffed is reminiscent of older classics while still providing new and exciting mechanics of it’s own. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
