I recommend this game even if you suck at art.
I can’t say that I’ve had almost 20 hours on a demo before.
I’m excited for the giveaway of the full release, but I know I’ll end up buying it anyway.
Pros: First of all, this demo is free so download it right now and try it.
Anyway, You can make a mess, paint, clean, and create pretty much anything you want. There’s so many color options and plenty of canvas sizes that you can experiment with. There are a good number of brushes and blending options to spice up your paintings and have fun. You don’t even have to paint on a canvas. I literally redecorated my “art simulation space” and changed all of the colors of the furniture and shelves to the color of my liking. I decorated my place with my own artwork and my messes. You can earn money and spend it how you like, on whatever you want. More brushes, furniture, objects to paint on and bobble heads. Its such a therapeutic experience and very calming.

SPORE™ Creepy & Cute Parts Pack
As one of my old favorites, this game still delivers. It really is a shame that it got so much flak from the religious communities for being associated with evolution, because it is just simply a joy to play.
Note the thumbs down is for the Creepy&Cute pack. The base game is a thumbs up, however, $20 for a handful of extra parts half of which you will never see or even use is just insane. This is a $5 content pack and no one should spend any more than that on it.
As for the base game, I would still recommend it, however,

SPORE™ Creepy & Cute Parts Pack adds new parts, colors, and animations to the Creature Creator feature of SPORE™. This is quite an expensive expansion with a twenty dollar price tag, on top of you being required to pay the twenty for SPORE™, even though this is not a DLC, but a standalone game.
This game has a total of 84 new creature parts which is 24 parts more than advertised, 48 new colors, 24 new animations, and 2 new testing area backgrounds.

TramSim Vienna
I never got a rail / tram game to be as close to reality as this one in term of simulation and graphics / physics.
As I got an opportunity in my life to be a tram driver for a little while and spend plenty of time in tram and metro cab,
I can tell you the comparison to real thing as it is supposed to be a simulator. IT IS !
It’s a perfect replica of tram operations en route.
Route is a 50 minutes drive one way.
Route is really diversified, hills, underground, on the road, on tram proper route etc ….

Tramsim : It’s great. I recommend it whole heartedly. At time of writing you get in the game 2 Tram types and a really well modelled rendition of Line 1 of the Vienna tram system.
The learning curve isn’t particularly steep, if you sit the tutorial you more or less are tramming like a pro within 30 mins or so. There’s a timetable mode where you pick a tram type, time of day, and some other options and just run the schedule until you are trammed out :) There’s a kind of first person open world type mode to just travel round at your leisure and a challenge mode where you show off your tram skills to a crowd kind of Gran Turismo style.

Radio Commander
Overview
Set during the Vietnam War, Radio Commander is a realtime strategy game in which the player assumes the role of a company commander known by the radio handle of Papa Bear who has to accomplish military objectives by ordering two platoons via radio. Alpha Platoon is lead by a proud Texan named Kovacs and Bravo Platoon is lead by a black officer named Coleman with some prior combat experience. Unlike any other military strategy game, Radio Commander expects the player to keep track of platoons and enemy units by marking them on a map and radioing (frequently if desired) to the platoons to pinpoint their coordinates on the map in addition to locations of enemy units in which the platoons may be engaged in battle with.

After roughly 20 hours and earning all the achievements, I feel it’s time to put my look on this game into perspective.
The game is fun if you’re into pseudo-realistic military strategy games, in saying that it’s probably not for everyone, but it is fun.
Imagine a Vietnam era Tom Clancy’s Endwar, with a twist, you can’t see your units.
The three difficulty settings in the game are Story, Commander, and Veteran. The first 2 are fairly easy with the amount of micro and enemy difficulty, and the third kicks it up a notch, which is a very good thing for a game like this. It increases the difficulty to the point where you can’t just skip through radio communications all willy nilly. The combat your troops will get into is much more difficult for them to win on this difficulty mode, and you’re more likely to suffer casualties. Your troops can get lost if you keep them in a sticky situation too long before they pull out of combat. You have to keep your choppers and vehicles fueled up, or risk them crashing and losing the valuable crew they have, and the valuable asset they provide.

Airport Simulator 2015
Enjoyable for roughly ten hours if you’re looking to casually play, but a solid grind past this if you want to earn all of the achievements. Note here there is one broken achievement in AS15, it tracks and unlocks correctly in-game but not on Steam so unless you’re fine with using SAM or similar you completionists may wish to skip this title.
Easily one of the better airport games on here at the moment, but that’s not saying a whole lot with the current crop of contenders. This one went for a slightly different setting, what appears to be a euro-styled airport during winter. Most operations take place at night despite there being a day/night cycle as this only changes on game load. Expect to be doing piles of tarmac snow removal and cargo shuttling while dodging often suicidal AI vehicles which have no drivers (yours are empty too, hello Maximum Overdrive). Using tugs is quite fun as AI tugs and any planes free wheeling on the tarmac tend to ignore you, so things can get a little tense sometimes. Bonus points for some vehicles having optional in-cab view with functional mirrors.

First of all, AS2015 is made by different developers which seem to have better programming skills than the devs of 2014. So that’s a PLUS.
Secondly, keep in mind it’s a Casual Simulator. Most casual-sims are pretty much the same… Learn how to repeat boring tasks over and over again for a worthless reward. However, some people enjoy sims like this because it’s relaxing and therapeutic.
This Airport Simulator is extremely easy. All you have to do is complete random timed tasks for experience and cash. Experience unlocks more items. Cash upgrades the items. You also earn achievement cash rewards along the way.

BORIS THE ROCKET 🚀
A kinda hectic run-around-but-think game, nicely themed around quasi-Soviet missile intercept site. Be prepared to value every second of your time. Missions are around seven minutes each, so this is also a “just another bite” thing. I picture this in the evening, a mission or two every now and then. Then again, I love the setting too : )

This game is sort of Papers, Please.
During game you need to shoot down all incoming rockets. But task is not easy. You must properly configure every AA missile while trying to get enough resources to produce new missiles, or for upgrades. You alone in that base so must run on foot to every point of interest.
Actually I like games like Paper, please, so this game is my type of games, and I recommend it to buy. Its cheap enough.

Firefighters - Airport Heroes
good but has stuff to fix
– Real player with 12.2 hrs in game
They have managed to simulate all the worst parts of working in an office: the tedium, the pointless office meetings, the extremely slow pace. I suppose you could call that a success.
Unfortunately, no part of this game is fun.
The cars drive too slowly.
The character moves too slowly.
The fires are hella unimpressive.
It is grindy as anything. Just avoid this.

Hell’s High Harmonizers
Simple, but a lot of moving parts, some of which may not mean anything but maybe they will? Creepy, but pleasant. A good sense of humour, but not wacky. An enjoyable time-kill.
– Real player with 43.5 hrs in game
Extremely charming, relaxing, level-grinding fun. You create an avatar from many disparate options and join your fellow Harmonizing co-workers in Hell- a very chill, stylish, monochrome Hell with lots of varied characters to interact with- in order to maintain peace and (relative) quiet. New characters appear, new levels with shops, break rooms, taverns, training areas, and labs are unlocked the longer you play, and new pieces of your overarching quest are revealed the further you go.
