Theseus - Mythological Hero

Theseus - Mythological Hero

Broken mechanics, invisible walls, and a terribly designed maze with awful lighting plague this asset reliant mess of a game.

It’s just BAD. Nothing more needs to be said. Watch part of my first impressions review video if you need more about it.

NOT RECOMMENDED, even if it were free, I’d tell you to stay far away.

It runs terribly and looks awful.

For a solo development, it is pretty cool but as a game that I paid $$ for, it is a failure.

Take this over to itch.io for some help and feedback.

Zeus vs Monsters - Math Game for kids

Zeus vs Monsters - Math Game for kids

This game is a really good math game. You can be Zeus or Athena, and you can change the difficulty in the options menu. One thing that I had been wondering, was if you could pick which type of equations you do, and the answer is yes. You can pick from Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction as well as what the math difficulty is. The hardness, is how fast the monsters are not the math equations. So, if you have a kid who is learning math, than this is a go to game to help your child.

Zeus vs Monsters is an educational game designed for kids to hone their maths whilst having fun. You solve math problems to stop the enemies reaching you with either spear throws or bolts of lightning depending on your choice of either Athena and Zeus respectively. It manages to be fun in the first few levels but can get a little dull afterwards. It’s maths. Of course it does. I could see this being a good little game to play if you wanted to brush up on your simple maths or to help your children better their sums whilst learning a little Greek Mythology.

Rise of the Argonauts

Rise of the Argonauts

Rise of the Argonauts is a game that gets very little notice today. You play as Jason of Iolcus, king of ancient myth, whose wife Alceme is murdered by nefarious assassins. Instead of accepting her death, Jason sets out upon a journey across Greece in search of the one artifact that is reputedly able to reverse death: the Golden Fleece. Unique setting, fair graphics (Unreal 3), average voice-acting, good combat, and a fabulous soundtrack make this a niche classic.

After the death of Alceme at the beginning, Jason must venture to several places, looking for clues to the location of the Golden Fleece. Three of these locations – Mycenae, Kythra, and Saria - can be visited in any order, so there is the possibility to take different squad-mates with you depending on where you visit first (you can take two for a party size of three). After everyone has been gathered, you have the location of the Golden Fleece, and proceed linearly to the end of the game. The areas and levels themselves are large, but not very open. Not that there would have been anything gained by a sandbox design; but the levels generally feel narrow and restricted, save for the wide open arenas where the fighting occurs.

It is an interesting take on the Greek myths and an excellent action-rpg. It doesn’t retell the stories of the characters we know from the Greek myths, but instead weaves a new tale that showcases those legends. It’s very much the Greek Mythos version of Jade Empire.

You begin the game as King Jason of Iolcus. He sails the seas on the Argo, a large mechanical ship, and in the course of adventuring acquires new party and crew members (the Argonauts of the title). Be aware: the first 20-30 mins of the game is pretty bad, but once you speak to the gods, gain their boons and get to the Argo, the game gets progressively better.

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy

I’ve been eagerly awaiting Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy since it was announced for re-release on the PC by THQ Nordic, it looks and feels just like I remember, however, on a 1440p monitor, the GUI elements are extremely small. It’s good that they don’t stretch unnaturally, but the subtitles and button display are quite small and currently have no options to increase them. Developer Swyter has confirmed on the Community Hub that this will be fixed. I’ve only experienced one minor freeze so far, but I think this happened when my Xbox Controller suddenly became disconnected from the computer.

Well this has been a long time coming. This game brings back so many childhood memories. My biggest question is WHERE IS THE 2ND GAME!!! A second game needs to be made. Alright enough ranting for part 2 let’s get into the review.

Let’s start with the pros:

  • Beautiful graphics

  • Very solid story line

  • Simple and easy controls

  • Not too difficult (Gameplay wise)

  • Excellent music

  • Very fun overall

Now for the cons

  • Very short (Completed it in almost less then 12 hours)

  • Very little to no voice acting

Through the Woods

Through the Woods

The air is cold, the night is dark, and the woods are thick. Here my friend, cozy on up to my campfire, and let me tell you a tale. It’s a dark and unsettling one, so best cling tightly to your sweater and scarf and, whatever you do, don’t look too closely into the fire, for fear of what might lurk deep within the cinders…

I own a laptop. Actually, I own three laptops, but the one I use for Steam purposes is pretty powerful and can play, y’know, almost all those games which are notoriously troublesome on other people’s DESKtops - including AAA games like The Evil Within - with little to no worries. Yet for some strange reason, this new indie release is the first game I’ve had to dial down to 1280 X 720 and Low quality.

“It’s the silence that scares me. It’s the blank page on which I can write my own fears. The spirits of the dead have nothing on it. The dead one tried to show me hell, but it was a pale imitation of the horror I can paint on the darkness in a quiet moment.” Mark Lawrence

Through the Woods is a third person horror, adventure by Antagonist (published by 1C Company). The game is set in a forest on the shores of Norway, and is heavily influenced by Norse mythology and folklore, which it also takes some of its monsters from. Searching the woods for your son, you play as a female protagonist who is deceptively complex. At first, she evokes sympathy but this wanes as we discover more about her and her past through encounters and triggered dialogue in a kind of reverse character development. Unfortunately, I did occasionally find myself being dragged out of the narrative by questionable dialogue and flat delivery. I guess things could have got lost in translation from the original Norweigan but I played the version after the mother’s voice had been rerecorded with a new actor.

I absolutely LOVE this game and have for a very long time obviously since I’ve played it a lot as is evident from my hours (there is also even more hours besides whats shown on just Steam alone). I put a lot of my time, money, effort and care into this game for many years and I don’t regret it even with the crazy amount of time and money I put into it.

If we are going to judge the game solely on game-play alone then it’s awesome and a really fun and great game but it does have some issues with bugs (not too many but still they exist especially old bugs that should’ve been fixed a long time ago), servers suck too, unbalances within the game-play like gods (usually the newly released gods tho) and matchmaking oh god the MATCHMAKING like don’t even start me.. However no game is perfect and so regardless of those I’d almost recommend it just for the fact alone that it is a good game and for how much I love it, however I cannot look past the MYRIAD of other problems it has beyond just game-play and namely things like the greedy+useless Devs and the toxic community.
