Contraband Police: Prologue Overview Although Contraband Police: Prologue can be sufficiently reviewed by saying “in the likeness of Soviet Russia, vehicles inspect you,” ol' Il Pallino has always prided himself in objective reviews that are the basis for the comment “TL;DR.” Set in the early-1980’s, the prologue starts with the player on their first day on the job where people driving vehicles in worse condition than what the player will find in an American redneck’s yard and make note of the damage (which is typical) and look over papers with an Autobahn Police Simulator 2 mechanic of matching up information, and ultimately deciding to accept or reject a traveler attempting to enter the nation....

Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders Who this game may appeal to – -New P&C gamers -Agatha Christie fans or those who love a good story -HOG gamers who like puzzles as the puzzles here are just a bit harder than most HOGs (note this isn’t a HOG like some past Christie games were). -People who find Nancy Drew and Sherlock Holmes games too hard or need a good bit of help with them....

BROK the InvestiGator - Prologue (Disclaimer: I was involved in this game as a voice actor, though not for anything in this demo. I’ve not been pressured to write a positive review, however, and went into this game blind. My thoughts are my own.) TL:DR? It’s fresh. It’s fun. It’s free. Go play it. | I was really pleasantly surprised by this game. When you work on projects within the indie game world, you always hope that they turn out great....

Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble!™ Rarely have I felt as compelled to write a review for a game as I have for this one. Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble (DHSGiT) offers a peculiar type of challenge. It’s a game of highs and lows. Whether or not you’ll find it fullfilling seems deeply personal in a way I’ve rarely encountered. At first glance, DHSGiT appears quirky and charming - undeniably unique....

Mini Countries Surprising I stumbled upon this page by going down a rabbit hole looking for a puzzle game that could entertain me without requiring me to spend most of my time trying to figure out the puzzle/strategy in order for me to complete it. I bought this game purely based on first looks and watching the developer play a bit of it on his live stream before I decided to just jump in and try in on my own....

BIG-Bobby-Car – The Big Race As the current world record holder of the Any% speedrun for this game I must say it’s a pretty fun experience if you have a soft spot for weirdly fun kids games. Having done a 100% speedrun and failed another attempt at it, I would not recommend running the 100% category unless you are deliberately looking for a bad time. You have to finish twelve of the races/missions four times, one time in the story mode and then three more times to beat the Bronze, Silver and Gold challenges....

Her Story My rating: 8+/10 Based on: one thorough 100% investigation Check out my other reviews TL;DR: An interactive police procedural movie with purposely outdated mechanics, brilliantly written and well-acted, a slow burn and a time sink that offers an engaging story to be discovered bit by bit, an immersive, nostalgic experience of the times gone by, truly worthy of the awards it’s received. Pros: (+) a slow-paced, but enthralling open-ended story as told by Hannah Smith whose husband went missing, served up in a series of interviews with this unreliable narrator conducted by police detectives...
