Eastward
This game is a brilliant! I The world is so attractive that you want to spend hours in it and explore every corner of it. It was with great pleasure that I communicated with each NPC. Dialogues gave me so much emotions. I can’t remember the last time I smiled so much while playing. What about music, it’s sheer delight. She immersed me in the days of my childhood. And I really felt like a little carefree boy.
This is the best game in the last year. Recomend for everybody!

【1】Retro pixel style with impressive lighting and shading
The game uses pixel sprites, with characters drawn in a classic American comicbook style. Fossil halls, greenhouses, hedge mazes, botanical gardens, underground cave systems…scenes appear one after another, presenting a visual feast. Unique lighting and shading technology creates an engaging atmosphere and a wonderfully immersive experience.
【2】 Classic cultural elements meet a unique worldview
The game embraces the spirit of early suspense novels, interspersing classic cultural elements throughout the story. Adopting an overhead world view, the world is composed of anthropomorphic animal (furry) characters; the social structures, folklore, and ethnic relations of this world are all waiting to be discovered by players!
【3】Engaging story
Strange things seem to happening one after another at the mysterious mountain sanitarium, and the curse of the alchemist family is spreading. Legends, midnight societies and ghostly patrons are just a few of the curiosities to be investigated, but maybe the mystery runs deeper than once thought. Gather clues and delve into the mystery to discover exactly where this story will go…
【4】 Lots of items and achievements to collect
Discover a large number of collectable elements along the way, including character information, folklore, objects, copied notes, photos, and even intercepted gossip. The game also features a variety of achievements, with certain choices and actions unlocking them. Fortune favors the bold.

No Place for Bravery
No Place for Bravery is a 2D top-down action RPG which weaves together high-quality visuals, a stirring soundtrack and intense combat moments into a deep and affecting tale of moral dilemmas and personal reflection of choices. YOUR choices.
The game will focus on parries and fast-paced combat. Making mistakes will be punishing and you’ll experience a lingering sense of fragility while facing the dangers of Bravery’s world.
Thorn, a retired warrior plagued by nightmares, stumbles on an opportunity for redemption after finding clues to his daughter’s disappearance from long ago. With the company of his disabled foster son, Phid, it will be up to the player to decide how far Thorn will go, not only to rescue his daughter but also to fulfill his ambitions.
The story of Bravery carries a strong message on the role of parental figures and the consequences of their choices in a troubled world. This message is informed by the developers' personal life experiences, and the game aims to impart these real, resonant feelings with competence and depth.
Thorn is a competent warrior in a world where people like him perish all the time. Under your control, Thorn will have the capacity to kill and survive from the word go, but you should expect to find Thorn’s fragility starkly reflected in your own series of likely defeats.
A captivating blend of the low fantasy setting, highly detailed pixel art, and beautiful hand-painted textures makes this decrepit world croak with breathtaking life, as Thorn carves his path through it. Every second that passes in No Place for Bravery pulses with an immersive, intense atmosphere that you’ll feel in your veins.
Swag and Sorcery
If you have the stamina for moderate grinding and clicking, appreciate highly detailed pixel art and love having limitless options to gear a party, Swag and Sorcery might be the game for you. It’s not quite a clicker, though you’ll do a huge amount of clicking and wonder why some simple quality of life options don’t exist. It’s also not quite a turn based rpg, since you’ll just watch your party walk on rails through turn based combats with no real control and minimal options for affecting the outcome.

Okay so there is a bit to unpack with this game.
TL:DR is: Has mobile game trappings, extremely grindy, shallow combat, meh story.
The longer version:
The game has quite a bit of potential, though much like Graveyard Keeper, leaves a lot lying on the table. If you don’t like idle games, or games that have LOTS of grinding, then I would suggest not reading the whole of this. This game is likely not for you. If you love grinding in games (like me) then there is a lot that this game brings to the table.

Demon heart
Demon heart - бродилка, сделанная в рисованном стиле. Графика простенькая, но стильная, нопоминающая игры, сделанные на RPG Maker. Хорошая фоновая музыка добавляет атмосферы игре. Завязка сюжета довольно проста - победить демонов, которые обитают на пяти разных островах. В общем за первые 2 часа игры - мне нравится. Посмотрим, как будет дальше.

dungeon & heros
Rage-quit inducing.
I spent nearly 4 hours just trying to figure out how to play the game on the “easy” difficulty.
Poor translation.
Constant debuffs from element system.
Pretty much nothing carries over if you are defeated.
Buttons that don’t do anything when clicked.
Constant errors popping up.
Seems like an Alpha that was never play-tested.

Bad translation, the font looks weird, the game play is questionable and you can’t leave the map to retreat and heal without permanently losing stamina.
