Doggone Hungry
Absolute masterpiece. Insane replay value. Really excited because they just announced Doggone Hungry 2! I suggest you play through the first before the 2nd comes out. It took me three hours to finish the story as it is an extremely challenging campaign. If you get discouraged easily, or have trouble with puzzles/stealth I highly do not recommenced this game. If i had a game I could compare it to, it would be a mixture of Metal Gear Solid, and Dark Souls. Great game especially for its price.
- DDug out! Good luck to those to take this game on, it was for sure a grind for me.

As you can see by my hour count, i have really enjoyed playing this game. To me this game is simple yet sophisticated. when i say simple I mean anybody can pick it up, all you have to do is be able to read. However, this game is also sophisticated because when you get into the later stages of the game, you have to keep track of all of the major options you chose and with the variety of this game, there are a lot of story developing options.
This game is perfect for anybody who feels like they need to get their creative side running again, or anybody who likes D&D should also love this game. This game is suitable for all ages and anybody can come and enjoy it.

PROS: Colorful artwork; humorous story telling; classic genre references from movies and literature; many different ways to get to endgame; not system requirement intense; great value; easily turned into a house party game
CONS: Once towns are overrun, all quests and quest items in that area are cut off; each action (no matter how insignificant) burns a day
As a lover of “choose your own adventure” and casual game play, ALLURIS has won a place in my heart. This beautifully illustrated card-style RPG offers hours of game play for a very reasonable price.

STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town
I will say this~ As a die-hard HM weeb
With only 40hrs put into this game and only on “Autumn” Xseed has done a fine job with keeping the Harvest Moon franchise alive and ongoing. I love that they keep some of the same elements from the earlier games.
Pros: The graphics are beautiful and the characters are way better than Xseeds “SOS” where everyone looks the same. You have more personality with these new characters and they’re all so bubbly and cheerful and have their own unique dialogues. I do hope in the future that MORE Harvest Moon games will be coming out on the pc as I lack a newer Switch. Thanks for catering to the PC master race Xseed. Natsume has lost me in its very weak and un-immersive graphics. The animals are adorable everything about this game is amazingly fun and there’s so much to do the repetitiveness does not get “boring” or “old” It feels fresh every time you do something even if it is the same thing over and over again. All the villagers literally like everything so finding an item to give them daily is not hard. You even have CUSTOMIZATION to your main character. This is by far the best I have seen and ever played from Harvest moon when it comes to that. The outfits are so pretty too and don’t even get me started with the animations when farming. They’re on the peak.

As much as it pains me, this is probably the first Story of Seasons title that I have to honestly say I cannot recommend.
There are some cute things about it, and some of the heart of the series is there, buried way way down in there, but honestly this feels like Story of Seasons is trying too hard to take My Time at Portia elements and falling so flat on it’s face that it tumbles right over a cliff.
First and foremost the balancing in the game is atrocious. Day 2 of Winter Year 1 and I had already beat the town development “main” story. Winter 23 of Year 1 and I was married to the bachelor of my choice. The only major story milestone left for me is to have the kid (which I have read ahead is an adoption thing regardless of hetero marriage status or not and that moderately irks me). After that it’s just little completionism, which at the rate I smashed through them in year 1 I don’t expect will take longer than the last Year 3 achievement.

B100X - Auto Dungeon RPG
I do recommend the game but…there’re several glaring flaws.
The game does a very poor job explaining the item mixing system. This is because the game literally tells you nothing about the major rules governing item mixing and essence extraction. However, you can generally create items that continuously get stronger through good use of blank essences and abrasive stones. I wouldn’t have figured that out without hanging out on the game’s Steam forum.
The Heart System is literally a pointless feature. You lose a heart each time you die, unless you have Heart Protection. Lose all 5 hearts and you lose all of your equipped items the next time you die. Your hearts are restored for free every day at midnight. Seriously, this “feature” just screws over the player by preventing them from playing out of fear of losing their items when they’re out of hearts…or you could open the wallet for 75 hearts via microtransactions. Scroll up and look at the store page to see the price.

A great game - this is a semi idle game you can play actively for quite a long time before it starts slowing down. The game has very in depth ‘crafting’ mechanics, which are core of the game, so I have made a guide for the English speaking community based on sea season(patch 1.2 approximately) and added my own build in so you know that it’s not game being unfair, but you simply needing to be smart with using it’s mechanics.
Be aware that using the guide can take part of the fun you get by learning the unknown.

Prison Simulator
Prison Simulator, although incredibly silly, has a decent amount of depth to it that makes it very rewarding and dynamic.
In this game, you play as a guard, and can either be law-abiding, or corrupt and self-profiting. You have options in regards to everything. You can be forgiving to prisoners, or unnecessarily cruel (even guards).
Every character has unique behavioral elements that might make them react to different situations in a variety of ways. Fires can break out, as well as fist fights. Prisoners hide contraband in their cells, that if you find, you can either confiscate officially, or keep for yourself, off the record. I loved having the choice. Especially because you have to make sure no one sees you snagging any goods.

I think the gameplay is just great and it’s a lot of fun, even the videos for the prologue on YouTube were very entertaining. This game shows you the other side of all the escape games and that’s cool.

Royal Heroes
Review for Royal Heroes
Royal Heroes is a casual game with suprisingly great rpg mechanics and progression. It has an impressive array of features that make this game truthfully entertaining and it is very apt to suck you into its easy to use interface and solid strategic mechanics for a casual game.
–—————————–
Full Review and Features
The following will rate the games mechanics, sound, graphics, replayability, and value for price on a 1 to 10 score.
A score of 1 being do NOT buy the game if you value this feature. 10 being you MUST buy this game if you value this feature. 5 is a completely average score meaning I have no problems with it but at the same time nothing about it impresses me.
– Real player with 90.8 hrs in game
I will try not to write too long of a review of Royal Heroes, but for the TL:DR, suffice it to say, this game in my opinion, is a steal at $2.99.
So I have spent many hours on this game, and I won’t claim this game is perfect, but I will say I have really enjoyed the hell out of it. It has so many things that rpg and strategy lovers will find familiar, but also interesting. The crafting system is not too complicated, and if you have played Minecraft, then you know a lot of the recipes already. Some of the higher tier items will require some grinding to acquire the materials, or some investigating to figure out the hidden blueprint hinted at by one of your counselors.

Deep Dungeons of Doom
Deep Dungeons of Doom is a mobile-based casual game with very simple mechanics, where timing is the key to success. By choosing one of the three availabe ‘heroes’ (the rogue/mercenary and witch aren’t really good by nature) we have to defeat monsters in 2 dimensional dungeons (and towers), but instead of moving from left to right, we proceed from up to down (or the other way round) floor after floor in dungeons or towers.
There’s a plot, but it’s goofy and shouldn’t be taken seriously. Evil has taken over the land and only one hero can set things right: us. We play as a crusader, but later on after ‘freeing’ the rogue and meeting a witch, we can switch and play with them as well.

Started as a fun little game, ended as a repetitive, exhaustive mess.
Deep Dungeons of Doom can be summed up as a small game about going into dungeons and fighting enemies while also being able to use equipments, items and skills to help you. The game is quite simple and the same can be said for its controls: one button makes you defend, one button makes you attack and holding the “attack” button makes you do a special move.
My experience with the game:
When I started playing this game it hooked me with its fast gameplay and addicting stages, however, the more I played it the “worse” things started to get. After I completed the game (and I was already a bit tired when I finished it), I decided to try and 100% the game (as in, get all the achievements), which proved to be quite a exhaustive and angering job. Finding Secrets (something like a second objective to a dungeon) turned out to be a hard and tiresome mission and, if it weren’t for some of the amazing guides that some users made, I would probably still be wondering how to complete some of them. Getting all the skills turned out to be extremely grindy work, that was, in part, made easier with the quests system, which also disappointed me later in my journey when I noticed that a quest bug that was supposed to be fixed 5 YEARS AGO was hampering my mission, so I had to spend the rest of the game with a useless quest slot, which made the grinding worse. Finally, to get the “Ninth Circle” and its counterparts achievements I had to go into the Deepest Dungeon of Doom (an infinite version of the Deep Dungeon of Doom that gets unlocked after finishing the game by… completing the Deep Dungeon of Doom) and reach floor 666 on it (hmm…), that proved to be the most exhaustive, tiring, repetitive and boring achievements I’ve ever had to get in this game. It took something like 3 hours and 30 minutes to get it and after I got it I barely felt happy about my achievement, it felt more like I wasted my time and health while playing something without stopping.

Moonglow Bay
A really fun and relaxing game.
I’m a bit sad it has such a mixed review score.
There’s not really a big challenge to anything you do ingame, however to me this was perfectly fine.
I wanted to play a really laid back game, which is exactly what Moonglow Bay seemed to be.
And I got even more.
You can just chill, catch a few fish, cook, collect pieces of the story behind your character and the citizens of the bay.
You’ll progress through quite the variety of biomes and there’s lots of interesting fish to find, that all have nice little myths the people of the bay affiliate them with.

I really can’t recommend the game in it’s current state. There’s just too many bugs ranging from small visual things to currently unfixable softlocks. I’m currently stuck, unable to progress through a bossfight because it simply won’t continue. I see too many other issues like this in the game’s discord as well. Keyboard support seems like a very last moment addition; on launch, the controls were wonky and you couldn’t even save your game. They updated the controls, but there’s still no way to rebind anything. The game also doesn’t use the mouse, which is strange for a game with analog input in sections. I really wish this game had had some sort of early access/open beta period to iron out the more obvious and game-breaking issues before launch.

Dungeon of Elements
Dungeon of Elements is a repetitive Puyo Puyo clone with a few and scarce fun boss battles and a bunch of shallow and incoherent RPG elements thrown into it.
The core rules of the game are simple: You drop colored pills from the top of the screen onto colored enemies down below, and when you match 4 elements of the same color (not necessarily in one line, as in Dr. Mario), they disappear.
First off, the positives.
Puyo Puyo is fun! Bosses in Dungeon Elements are also fun! Each boss is one of their kind, has a set of its own unique abilities (e.g. regain health from nearby pills, spawn hordes of enemies running towards you, shoot a projectile that destroys your pills, etc), and it felt very enjoyable and rewarding to figure out mid-game what those abilities were, understand how to counter them, adjust the play style accordingly and win.

6/10
This game was actually surprisingly fun, much more than expected.
My first impression when I started playing is that it was just a game that plays like Dr. Mario and has a few RPG elements and not much more than that. But the truth is that the game actually has quite a bit of content to encourage the player to delve further into the game - mostly, the new recipes for creating new items, which is pretty cool.
And while Easy difficulty lets the player properly play through the game without much hassle, Hard difficulty presents actual challenge that’s not easy to beat (I admit Hard was too difficult for me).

Puzzle Quest: Galactrix
Puzzle Quest Galactrix (PQG) definitely has its strengths and weaknesses, but for people who enjoy puzzle games it works out to the good.
On the positive side: the core puzzle game has easily-grasped rules that allow you to become more effective as you learn how to plan multiple moves ahead. The head-to-head puzzles have a few variations (the most annoying of which is the time-pressure variant, but more on that in a moment). There is a very lightweight story wrapped around it, nothing movie-worthy or anything like that, but it does give context. The soundtrack is also better than one might think; generic adventure-orchestra, but well done for that. I also find it to be stable for a game of its age, with a crash happening maybe once per 30 game hours. It frequently auto-saves, so even if it does go boom you don’t lose more than a few minutes of progress. You also can retry any engagement that you lose without penalty, so even if you lose a given game, no big deal.

Developed by Infinite Interactive and published by D3Publisher Of America Inc., Puzzle Quest: Galactrix is yet another puzzle roleplaying game in Infinites steadily growing stable of quality match 3 titles. The wonderful thing about this game, however, that sets it apart from the other Puzzle Quest titles is that this one does not take place in a fantasy setting. No dragons, no swords and no magic. Galactrix instead is set far into the future and deals with aliens, lasers and technology. You take on the role of a rogue M.R.I. pilot scouring the galaxy in your spaceship trying to uncover clues in an intergalactic mystery that will affect the fate of the entire universe.
