Pacific Life
Pacific Life is a first-person game where you start with only a few tools in a small village. What happens next is all yours!
Start your life without worrying
The only thing you will have to care about is your hunger and wellness.
But even if both are empty, you cannot die!
In fact, in Pacific Life, there is no “health point”. You can play without the need of surviving!
Pacific Island… And more!
A whole 4km² Island for you to explore, gather, and to build on!
Until.. you get a way to reach more lands?
Help the Island to progress!
When you start your adventure on Pacific Island, there is not much technology. Maybe you could fix that?
Community based economy
The village is everyone’s starting point. But once on Pacific Island, the server’s economy will almost entirely depend on all players!
If by example, one decides to buy all the wood he can possibly find, then the wood’s price will drastically increase and it will be hard for you or other players to buy some if you needed to.
On the contrary, if that one’s player decides to sell tons of wood, then the price will decrease and will be very easy to find in a shop!
So join Pacific Life now and start your new adventure!
A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build
Who knew building snowmen could be this tricky?
If you dilute it down to its most basic elements, A Good Snowman is Hard to Build is basically sokoban – a very common sort of puzzle game that has you pushing blocks around various environments. Here, we take control of a little monster (originally shown at A Monster’s Expedition game) who is lonely and wants some friends, but in this snow-covered land, friends are hard to come by. So the little monster sets out to build some friends from the crisp snow on the ground. But of course, since this is a puzzle game it’s not just as simple as rolling some snowballs together ;)

The most enjoyable things in the beginning of a game for me were charming, cute and funny main character, nice animation and art, beautiful atmospheric music and sound effects and quite interesting developed mechanics of classical sokoban. It was also awesome to meet little nice details like that you can sit on a bench, touch different objects, chase butterflies and so on. Some of the puzzles were really tight, but most of them were of moderate difficulty and some were pretty straightforward.

Lone Land
I’m a speedrunner on this game. It’s really fun to run honestly. The high and long jumps are pretty satisfying, and it’s not too long. I really like the artstyle, and the railway in the water, which reminds me of Spirited Away.
My only complaint, and this is as a speedrunner, is the fact that jumping from the water to the top of 1 floor buildings feels really random, and I tried button mashing, holding jump, crouching at the ledge and all kinds of stuff. I just can’t figure out a way to do this consistently.

slightly Refunct or Ascendance like, but no crystal highlighting ala Refunct, with patch 1.1 you have a ingame counter, when you press “escape”. after you gain the highest crystal in skyscraper city, the game spawn multible crystal all over the city :-(.
with patch 1.2, the game save your ingame progress.
well, relaxed game, is a little bit exploration (to find all crystals ~ 45 minuts) and jump around…so, its okay for the price.

Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles
Overview:
Yonder is clearly heavily inspired by games like Harvest Moon, Zelda, and a touch of Animal Crossing, but makes sure to give a unique twist to the whole experience, including familiar elements such as farming, exploration, crafting, fetch-quests, character customization, animal taming and fishing.
Overall, I would absolutely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys the genre. I know this review comes across as a negative one; I’m just mostly focusing on the negatives of Yonder rather than the positives as it is so incredibly close to being a game I adore, the shortcomings become that much more irritating.

Forester Simulator
Take care of a forest, chill out in nature, and protect it from people that just don’t care! You play as a forester whose job is usually quiet and peaceful but sometimes could be a real thrill. Cut trees using big machines or chase wood thieves on quads. Be kind to animals, feed them, and make friends with them. See for yourself what the forest hides.
Unique game mechanics
Thanks to the Forester being a simulator game, it introduces some nice and fun mechanics.
Feeding animals is one of the best activities out there! It is a part of your job as a forester but really, it’s just a pleasure. Do it with love and you’ll certainly be rewarded with their gratefullness.
We all love it - taking care of plants. The most important thing is to plant new trees and making sure that they are safe. Plant new trees, count bugs populations and do everything else the forest needs.
And there are more activities to take:
-
cutting a tree (also using a big machines),
-
chasing bandits on quads,
-
forester quests: plant trees, check out the growing, count bugs population, etc.,
-
removing traps,
-
reporting thieves and vandals,
-
decorating your own cabin,
-
… and more.
Gameplay
Forester is a first person simulator game. You spend most of the time in nature doing quests given by the mother Earth herself. These are: planting new trees, feeding animals, checking if everything is ok with the ever-growing forest. Beyond that, you are also responsible for reporting crimes, chasing bandits, and taking care of other things that may interrupt a peaceful life in a beautifully green environment.
How does it feel?
Can you imagine being in the woods right now? Birds singing, a forest cover smells so unique when the sun is rising. The moss all around you is sparkling thanks to small water drops still being there… this is what the game captures. Being a forester is what we all desire from time to time and somehow we almost feel like we miss it. This longing will be hopefully fulfilled by playing the Forester game.
Make yourself cosy
Arrange your own peaceful wooden house! Wandering through the forest endlessly is great but there is no place like home. You can decorate it as you want using all kinds of rare stuff found in the woods. Of course, not everything you need is delivered by nature so you can always use a shop to make the interior feels like home. Build new fence, decorate your house, and make the forester’s life even better!
Quests and Free Mode
The game offers a singleplayer campaign full of quests. The completion of all tasks requires time, love to the forest, and some bravery. Prepare for moments of chill but be also ready for some action!
For those that would like to just set their own pace there is also the Free Mode. It’s nice to simply take care of the forest and deal with random encounters from time to time. If you love nature and you want to relax in the woods - this is definitely a game mode for you!
Meadow
For the last few weeks, I have dedicated my life to Meadow. Sleep, food, job and even family became less priority and only water kept me hydrated so I could survive till the final release and tell you a story you may or may not enjoy. Are you ready to spend few minutes of your life, yes? Very well, brave badgers and devious lynxes, buckle your seat belts, because ‘Shelter’ is going bye bye!
So what’s this Meadow is all about you may wonder. Let’s cut all the ‘woo woo’ stuff and dive deep into it.

I’ve had Meadow for a good while now, so I think it’s high time that I write a review for it.
First of all, Meadow is good for:
-
Anyone social
-
People who have trouble introducing themselves in real life
-
People who need to take a break
-
People who long to relax
-
People who want to be in a very kind environment
-
Perfectionists
Now you know who I reccomend it for; you’re probably wondering who I wouldn’t reccomend it to.
- People who only like survival games
Clarification - no survival? Yes, that’s one thing… also, there is no chat. At this point you’re probably thinking, “What?! There’s really nothing in this game, is there?”
