I’m not a big MC fan, so I’m always looking for a game that LOOKS like MC but with more muscle and a bigger challenge. However, this clone smacks of a college Computer Science project rather than a contender with the major players.

  • While Craftsman tries its best to imitate the original, it stops at the keyboard commands. ‘V’ to quit? ‘E’ to start? The ESC key does nothing, so if you think pressing it will call up the menu so you can escape this nightmare, you’ll be sorely disappointed.

Elven Magic: The Witch, The Elf & The Fairy

Elven Magic: The Witch, The Elf & The Fairy

This story is to be implemented in time and it is based on a book called Elven Magic by Daniel Chay.

“A Game about Elves and Witches. Elven Voices delves deeper into Fae the elven witch’s apprentice and there endless struggle to recover their lost spell book from Earthen Lands without drawing any attention to themselves because this is strictly forbidden by the Elven Elders.

The story continues into another world and there are many twists and turns for Fae the Elven Girl and the Witch named Ellen that would have Fae be her apprentice to uncover. The imperial guard of the nearby capital city may prove difficult to avoid. It details the rise of a Wyvern Wraith and the plight of a Witch Wraith.”

Balrum

Balrum

Balrum, a game with a great deal of potential, squandered with bad design decisions. To give you an idea of what I mean, think of a 2D MMO similar to Albion, now keep the lackluster combat, and remove the group up mechanics, and interesting skill trees. You will find that this game suffers from the most heinous of video game crimes imaginable. It is boring. It is very boring. And getting through this game is a test of patience and endurance, increased by it’s fairly unforgiving difficulty.

I have tried to be fair. I have tried 3 times to complete the game’s long and epic quest, and truth be told, the narrative is interesting, and full of good twists and turns. If not for the narrative I would have given up on the first try, but the very core aspects of the game are problematic from the beginning, and no matter how much I forgave, and looked for the silver lining, I always found something else that just drove me up another wall.

Something about this game has me seriously hooked. When I’m not playing, I’m usually wishing I was playing. Balrum just scratches an itch for me and is the perfect game for what I want to play right now. A lot of the game isn’t particularly intuitive, but once you’re able to accept some of the rough edges in the UI, it usually plays well.

Balrum’s got a pretty sedate pace, which is a little odd for a game with Hunger, Thirst, and Tiredness meters. But even though the survival mechanics are reasonably well implemented, they simply aren’t strict enough to be problematic once you’re clear of the early game. This isn’t Nethack: as long as you pay a bit of attention and plan slightly ahead, you probably won’t have “starving” be your most common death. Since farming and cooking are important mechanics, it’s not especially hard to keep yourself going. The game is perfectly happy to let you spend some time dawdling. In a bit of a twist, it’s usually your character that pretends they’re in a hurry (“I’ll go do that right away!") and the other characters are much less urgent about the things they ask you to do.

Too many things are missing at the moment.Took weeks for patch that lets you open the chests and that still doesn’t work properly.Audio drives you mad so you can either have music and sounds or complete silence.Needs a lot of work and commitment putting into it but I don’t think the Dev is bothered.

Cave Confectioner

Cave Confectioner

This product was provided for free to review by a friend of a friend.

The game initially reminded me of the classic Kings Quest game on the Apple II. You wander around a bit looking for the next thing to pick up. Kind of just wandering and clicking around with very little direction, but there are some occasional tips by talking to the characters. It was probably inspired at least some by MineCraft, since the player starts with nothing and has to pick up items and then use them with other items in inventory or objects on the ground to try to get make else. It also has similarities to One Hour One Life. There’s a lot of experimentation required to get anything going.

The game seems really nice, and I like the concept a lot. Thing is, I am having some issues with saving. However, as far as I understand the game is early in development and possibly being made by one person so issues like these are understandable. Can’t wait for future updates!

P.S A little help with saving would be much appreciated! :D

Edit: Save function in now working. Also, the controls are fine, that was a mistake on my part. Big thanks to the developer for the fast fix and the kindness!

Graveyard Keeper

Graveyard Keeper

I wish Steam had a star rating system instead of just yes or no. This is one I would put midway. I like the game. I like the story and the world and I enjoy finishing the quests.

However, I do not like how complicated they made it to complete the quests. For example: You need acid. You need 3 ingredients for it. You have to do a little running around to get those 3 things, but that’s not bad, no problem. Then you realize you need to build the workstation to combine those 3 ingredients. Okay, still not too bad. But then you realize you need to build 2 more workstations just to get the material to build the workstation to make the acid. Oh, but wait, first you need the tech points to unlock both additional workstations separately. Think you’re ready now? Oh, think again. You also need more tech points to unlock another technology to make the material needed for the original acid workstation. Then when you finally get the acid made, you have to wait for a particular day of the week for the npc to show up. Which with luck like mine is the day that just ended and you have to wait 5 days to complete the quest that just took you 2-3 game weeks and lots of frustration and lots of looking up stuff on wiki just to make one little bottle of acid. Almost every quest is like that - jump through 20 different hoops just to get the one thing you need.

In spite of having bought and played all of the DLC (as of 2021, November), I still hesitantly recommend you play this.

I’m only going to review the main game and ignore DLCs for now, they might get their own review…

I enjoy this game a lot, but I think part of me feels a bit foolish for doing so? I think there are parts of the game that lacks polish, and I’m seeing some generally lazy or unfinished portions that is in some cases difficult to forgive

! town. The game also has a very frustrating way of lengthening quests.
