Exo One: Prologue

Exo One: Prologue

It’s a demo/prologue. Runs/sessions are 7 1/2 minutes each maximum.

If you pause the game and restart the level before that time limit you can keep the game running forever.

Put your own music on with songs less than 7 1/2 minutes and restart after every song and you’ll be at it for a while.

Grab a wireless controller. Get up, move with the ball, qigong it. (somebody else mentioned smoke: Double Plus Recommend for Double Plus Good time)

I have actually played that many hours. (That could be the review itself.)

Actual review:

The creativity and absolutely incredible graphics of this game are unlike anything I’ve ever seen. It’s one of those demo games you simply must try in order to understand their thrill and appeal. The scattered elements of an intriguing storyline give me hope for a deeper meaning to the game, apart from admirable beauty and fun mechanics. If you’re considering installing this art piece, go for it as soon as possible. I guarantee you, you will not regret it. Kudos to the developers for making such an eye-catching yet undemanding masterpiece, looking forward to the full version.

8/10 - Great value for money if bought & overall a very pleasant, relaxing experience.

This game was truly an enjoyable time. I’ve not completed the game fully but I have gathered the main aspect and the majority of what I needed to do. If I’m guessing, you’ll get about 6-8 hours of gameplay overall before “finishing” this game.

You’re using DNA to create lifeforms and reviving the world, essentially. It’s a very cute, relaxing indie game and the soundtracks are A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Absolutely over the moon.

Hextones

Mentally stimulating yet relaxing game. It’s good! I was looking for a replacement for Ishido which I can no longer find for PC. Hextones retains the stone placing challenge that I love in Ishido but expands it. Each stone in Hextones has six instead of four sides. Learning new strategies after years of playing Ishido with only four sided stones is surprisingly fun. Hextones also has incremental challenges where you must get 6 sided, 5 sided, 4 sided, 3 sided and 2 sided correct placements to pass to the next tier. This is more difficult than just accumulating points. The music is hypnotically good. Well worth the price.

Futuristic Puzzle for a Good Price! This is similar to previous square grid “tile placing” games we’ve played, but this time it’s hexagons, and the scoring is a little different.

The music and visuals seem relaxing, just don’t get worried as you’re running out of space to place tiles!

(It would be cool to have more various play modes, including one that lets you remove some tokens from the board so you can play longer! Also, it’s nice to have multiple backgrounds and tile sets available, if possible.)

Imagine Earth

Imagine Earth

I purchased this game some time ago and have waited a long time to review it, due in part to some issues I had with it, but also because I wanted to be fair, considering that it is an early access game. So with that being said, my review:

So I was flipping through the steam games and I came across this game called “Imagine Earth” in the simulation section, I saw that it had a demo and decided to try it. At the time the demo only had a missions available, a simple interface and not a lot in the way of content… but I was hooked.

Real player with 41.7 hrs in game

I really like Imagine Earth. It’s a fun, lightweight city building game, where you have to keep track of not only economical, but ecological development as well.

The game has come a long way since its appearance on Steam. I get, that a lot of people compare this to games like Anno, don’t! Anno was made by a company worth billions, this game was made by a small indy team.

And especially in times of heat waves and forest fires in North America and South Europe, never seen floods in Europe and Asia it is good to see, that some people still try to educate about global warning.

“Don’t Judge a Book By It’s Cover.” - This game is way more addictive and fun than it might look like!

Super customizable and the ability to play any song you own in this game give it tons of replayability and a higher value score then other similar games. Add in smooth responsive controls and tons of settings and you got an easy recommend!

Great game

Real player with 2.3 hrs in game

Great mysterious atmosphere and pleasing pixel art. Puzzles are simple in concept, but get harder as the game goes on. Very satisfying to complete a puzzle. One slight critique is that the animation of an obelisk coming out of the ground is cool, but gets a little tiresome waiting through it every other time a puzzle is complete. Wish you could skip past it after the first one (with something like a click), but not a dealbreaker by any means. Overall fun little puzzle game.

The Answer Is 42

The Answer Is 42

This minimalist puzzle is a must for anyone who really wants to know where their towel is. It’s almost as entertaining as your plastic pal who’s fun to be with – you’ll get no pains in the diodes down any side with this one. I feel sure that the Syrius Cybernetics Corporation would thoroughly recommend this game’s replayability, as it remembers where you are yet forgets what you’ve done.

The Lord knows that you can’t disagree with it on price; it’s an absolute bargain.

So to be honest… Simple graphics, simple idea… Just get 42 in different combinations for each color and move to the next level right? Well, I think these kind of games are a bit more complicated than that and even though you are not going to spend hundreds of hours on this game, for it’s price… It’s a great game! Just a nice brain teaser whether you brute force it, find a different strategy or just find a hack :)

If you like simple games that will probably give you a few hours of fun (maybe less) go for it, it’s fun.

Im not sure about this one. Ive completed levels 1-40 so far. For me at least 95% of the puzzle were kinda easy with about 2 or so of them where it took me a little longer ( I did not realize that I could position myself at a better angle to complete the puzzle). Sooo, first and formost Im gonna give the game a 6/10 ( remember, only 40 lvls completed so the later levels could be harder), I think the price is fine with the amount of time you get to play. I was expecting the higher level I went up, the harder it would be, but I didnt feel as challenged in the higher levels. The game feels like its almost there, almost like something is missing. I dont want to sound like I am hating on the game, the concept is solid, the price is fine, but from just my personal perspective, more could be built upon the game from where it is now. I did put a “yes” check on recommend, but like I said, 6/10. But seriously, $6 ( I got it while it was 10% off ), not a bad price for how long Ive been playing ( and it looks like when you leave the game on at the main menu and being alt tabbed it still records your gametime, cause I know I didnt play this for 9 hours ).

I did not have a great first impression of this game. I started it up, immediately checked for key rebindings in the Options menus and found none. Started the game and couldn’t figure out how to move forward. But I could move left. So….the game doesn’t account for non-QWERTY keyboards and there is no key rebinding. I immediately quit and checked the forums.

Controllers are supported so I tried that. Y-axis control was unwieldy for me, and I initially couldn’t figure out how to move the 1st cube I came across. I saw no tutorial support for the basics - how to move, how to pick up a cube, how to jump, etc. After mashing every button on my X-box controller I eventually discovered that right bumper moves cubes. A rather unexpected choice. I was able to complete the 1st level but the Y-axis control was giving my so much trouble that I gave up on using a controller. That’s probably nothing to do with this game but has more to do with me not using a controller in years and being badly out of practice.

Frontier Pilot Simulator

I can’t. I want to but, I just can’t endorse this. This is sci-fi jet plane trucker simulator and it looks cool and I love the idea, but the execution is lacking. This isn’t some honorably realistic aero simulator so don’t expect that from it. Actually, don’t expect anything at all from it other than a challenge and cost effective entertainment.

This is a Unity game with Unity problems. Sometimes the game will hitch when other aircraft fly by or it updates the weather. Early it just completely flips out. Depending on your situation, you either have to re-trim or it kicks and spins out the bottom of your aircraft in a unnatural way. Having played KSP for thousands of hours and using planes in that game: I can see the frayed edges left by Unity in this one. What has been built so far is an accomplishment, but it will forever be held back by this. It needs to look better than it does, play better than it does, consume fewer system resources than it does, and hold fewer frustrations to compete with other games or even other sims. It has performance issues that might prevent them from ever implementing VR or increasing world detail.

I absolutely love this game and fully recommend it to people who know what early access is and are willing to look past some bugs/systems that haven’t yet been added.

Pros:

-Stable. (I’ve only encountered one crash in this game and it only happened because of a series of unique incidents that I caused.)

-Easy to learn flight mechanics that are still challenging at times and will punish you if you ever get too cocky.

-Weather events that will break the monotony of flying straight and force you to change the style of your flight. (In some situations, you’d be best just to land and let the weather pass by itself since most events force you to fly low and low altitude, clouds and mountain ranges just don’t mix.)
