Beyond a Total Loss
Just finished the the game and really enjoyed it, there are many details and a lot of effort was put into it. It was a great old school adventure with some interesting twists and funny dialogues. If you are not sure, there is a demo.

Beyond a Total Loss is good.
It’s about what you’d expect it to be based on the visuals, and is more or less what I love about indie games.
A quirky story about a man who ends up going through a series of unfortunate events.

Nine Witches: Family Disruption - Prologue
I think the prologue was good and funny in parts. I would recommend the game. I do not have a controller to connect to the computer and using the keyboard is a little cumbersome to use it needs a little work to better layout the controls. being able to use a mouse in game would help a lot.

Played the prologue and loved it !
The story got me from the beginning with a WWII and witchcraft mix. I also want to point out the music which totally fits with the game’s atmosphere.
The pixel art is great and the humor is quirky, totally my style.
I also love the game mechanics allowing you to switch between the characters and having each one of them with specific abilities.
Overall this game will please puzzle / narrative / point n click players who like dark sense of humor, and a slight dose of retro style in their games.

Nine Witches: Family Disruption
|
Review by Gaming Masterpieces - The greatest games of all time on Steam.
|
A classic point and click adventure. The pixel-art reminds me of the old Lucasfilm SCUMM adventures from the 80s, the light-hearted humor as well. The story of a wheelchair-bound english paranormal scientist and his Japanese servant operating in a rural village in Nazi occupied Norway, where the Nazis conjure evil forces to turn the tide of war, is obviously a parody. The humor, full of awkward toilet jokes and a few good ones (the one with the pale nun made me snort with laughter while drinking a coke), fits to the game, but the game is also full of quite serious topics in regard to the occupation, that clash with the general comic mischief style. Just be prepared that you will witness some very unfunny things in this mostly funny game as well. The puzzles start very easy, I have now played until act 4 and finally reached a point where I don’t know how to proceed. German words are used for some German things, which may sound good for non-german speakers, but they are often awfully translated and sound strange to German native speakers. Technically, the game is well made, it comes with a really good controller implementation and the gameplay is never hindered by the user interface. There is no speech, my XBOX 360 and One controllers were recognized without any problems. Is it a masterpiece? No, but it is a good indie pnc adventure nevertheless.

Edit: Last weekend I finished the game and the game stays good from the beginning until the end. The difficulty is ok. Not to easy and not to hard.
The humor stays great all the time. There was no moment I got bored. There are also a few action moments where you have to shoot.
If I need to give a score to this game it would be a 10/10 because it simply was perfect for me.
My first review:
Nine Witches: Family Disruption has some good humor.
Until now I reached Chapter 3. I had to play with 2 personages. One of them has a special ability to leave his body as a ghost. As a ghost you can find and talk to other ghosts, go into buildings where you can see hilarious moments.

Horatama
How… should I describe this… Your child left you a bunch of Tamagotchis and asks you to take care of them. But you end up fighting for your life. How did my child collected so many possessed Tamagotchis?!
10/10 Would pet again
No not really. Please take these things away from me :*(.

The experience of owning early 2000’s virtual pets,perfectly replicated in all its terror.
There are 5 little Horatama to take care of for your kid while they’re at a sleepover,each one has unique needs that you’ll have to meet,fail to do so and there’ll be a price to pay…one that gets steeper each time you screw up.
The game eases you into learning the mechanics over several levels,but you’ll need to remember them.,once you’ve got em down,the game is fairly easy…but HOO BOY that last level was rough.

What Lies in the Multiverse
What Lies in the Multiverse is a story-driven 2D adventure that one could call a dramatic comedy. Filled to the brim with hilarious, cartoonish hijinks, the narrative also presents the player with mature and deep themes like death, envy, and obsession.
Things inevitably go batshit crazy very fast in the Multiverse when you discover the ability to travel between parallel worlds. These worlds are alternate versions of each level and differ in aesthetic, theme, and physicality. Switching between them allows you to solve logical and spatial challenges and to progress the story.
Seamless Transformations
Would you like to change the game world on the fly? Now you can! Can’t reach a ledge? Bam! Switch worlds mid-air. Afraid of sliding around in an icy environment? Alternate to another universe for firmer ground! Just be careful when messing with gravity…
Diverse World
Embark on a journey across a variety of gorgeous pixel-art worlds, each offering something unique. Explore temples, towns, harbors, the wilderness and more as you race to unlock the secrets of the Multiverse.
Colorful Cast of Characters
Meet a bunch of quirky but compelling characters such as Everett, your eventual genius companion. Picture a sarcastic, eccentric Albert Einstein. Then there’s EZ, a mysterious figure everyone fondly remembers but can’t describe. Or ZENITH, a group of enigmatic and shadowy figures always breathing down your neck.
A Deeper Story
While staying true to its light-hearted nature, the story’s poignancy builds as you progress. A rollercoaster of laughter, joy, and sorrow awaits.
Octopus City Blues
Enter Octopus City, the last remaining human metropolis in a frozen world.
Meet the cowardly Kaf Kafkaryan, a tentacle trimmer living on a giant octopus.
Plagued by recurring nightmares, unravel dark conspiracies as the line between dream and reality begins to blur.
Meet eccentric people, learn and spread gossip, and manage your stress in a dynamic world.
Ghost in a Bottle presents Octopus City Blues, a graphical adventure about everything and nothing.
Despotism 3k
This title successfully resparked a sorely-missed dedication to just beat the damn thing! I missed such a challenge since I was a kid.
I must disagree with users saying random events are the only way to win - admittedly it may seem that way at first though. Rather, this game roots heavily into pop-culture references, with the tell-tale answer to most questions seemingly being the most far-fetched one (if, of course, you don’t get the reference). I can think of a couple of scenarios out of the odd 50 or so that I didn’t seem to understand myself, and thus these one’s specifically become a trial and error situation - but even then, that’s a game mechanic that’s been in use for decades! Not a defecit to gameplay.

Somewhat in the direction of FTL, but in a way that you only have to take care of four things in order to progress the game. I played Despotism 3k on the mobile too, but I find it to be more difficult with the tiny screen on my device and without the mouse. Therefor I bought this game on Steam instead and tried it out.
So far, the game utilizes heavily on the RNG events, whether if it’s a good one, a bad one or a mixed one. If you don’t plan things accordingly, then it’s a game over. I failed multiple times, mostly because of the bad events happening which caused decent amount of problems to my power supply. And the power supply on this game is crucial to your survival. Each day, your power supply needs more juice in it, making it difficult to upgrade things as you progress on.

DON’T GIVE UP: A Cynical Tale
I remember playing the first demo for this wonderful game way back when the Kickstarter campaign first launched. From that first moment I knew this could be something really special!
It’s got incredibly off-the-wall humour, lashings of self-deprecation (which I’m pretty adept at myself), a dollop of meta, wall-breaking moments and a wonderful helping of deep, emotional storytelling. Underneath all of the fantasy-style plot there’s a raw, pulsating bundle of feelings that really comes through in some of our protagonist’s monologues.

cons:
Don’t give up has an interesting premise, but in my opinion is falls short halfway thorough the story.
the villain seemed interesting but as soon as its intensions are revealed, made me loose al the hopes for the game’s story.
The story in part circles around the depression which affects character’s everyday life, and it can give some nice insight on how people with depression reason or react to situation, for me it seem to fall flat at the end of the story.
the story also has plot holes, especially as you progress towards the end, and in some way it took me out of the story since some of the informations on the characters are just left out. and it was hard to understand what was going on.

Happy’s Humble Burger Farm
If you are just playing through the in-game story and nothing else, then you’re doing it wrong. Read this review.
Most players will play through the story and call it a day, so I will let those players review that Story Mode aspect of the game in their own reviews. Though the story is fun, it’s not what makes this game special. For me, the appeal of the game is allowing yourself to sink into and be immersed in the living and breathing game world and not fight to escape it. I had an absolute blast waking up, exploring, unlocking locations, making money by working shifts at the restaurant, upgrading and decorating my apartment, sitting on the couch watching awesome shows on my flatscreen TV, hanging out at the Jazzy Java Joint for a cup of coffee, and just living it out in the city. Once you understand this and immerse yourself, you’ll realize that the main storyline was just an extra side mission and the real game is everything besides it, not the other way around.

There is a review for this game that seems to be a negative one and also happens to have a lot of upvotes. This review complains that this game is not how its demo was. That this game went from a horror diner dash game, to a horror diner dash game with story and added mechanics. Because of this, it wasn’t a game they expected to play at release and it sucks.
The only thing they got right in their review is that this game does not have a “slow burn” horror approach, which I agree it doesn’t and that kind of sucks. Other than that though… This review is wrong. This review is a hot take. This reviewer has terrible opinions. Everyone that upvoted that particular review also have terrible opinions. Below are reasons why…
