Croppy Boy
It’s fun little game to mess around with.
The controls are a bit weird and will need awhile to get used to.
Controls :
included W A S D and Z (for tackle people, they’ll drop stuff on impact but.. it costs you stamina, will talk about this more later.)
-
A for dropping stuff you have (will drop crops first, then seeds)
-
S for tool actions (for watering crops, plow dirt, and seeding)
//it depends on your selected tool (choose with 1,2,3 or 4) also sickle is pretty much useless since you can cut glass without it.//

A cute, fun farming game with unique gameplay that makes it a great game to play in short bursts with a group of friends. If you are looking for a serious farming simulator or some ultra-complex strategic multiplayer game, this isn’t the game for you, but if you just want something that you can hop right on, spend less than 5 minutes learning the controls, and have fun – definitely check this out.
It’s also free-to-play without a cash shop for overpowered items or paywalls restricting what you can do. Definitely refreshing to see a game like that these days, given much worse games in the free-to-play category often try to shake you down for cash these days.

The Emerald Tablet
If you’re looking for a alchemy game that brings the fun of trial and error from combining stuff, be aware that this game does NOT provide you the adequate tools to do so.
The gaming mechanism is made quite shabby and lack depth. Combination comes either with npc telling you the complete recipe or you get nothing. Several specific mats appear only once in the entire game, but you still need it repetitively for other recipes.
The foe becomes unreasonably strong in late game (from 3rd year) and balance become completely broken.

As a huge fan of the Atelier series, I really wanted to like this game, but it really needs a manual or in-game database. There doesn’t seem to be any way to discover recipes outside of trial-and-error in free mixing mode.

Alchemy Emporium
This title has certainly a peculiar approach to what makes a game, it feels like a dive in deep water. While the statistics are explained in the beginning and each section has a tutorial, the true nature of the experience is concealed, to be discovered as the player advances.
Cons
✗ Incomplete translation, with some text left in Italian.
✗ Extremely mind-numbing, the progress does not grant any actual satisfaction.
✗ In-game annotations aren’t practical.
✗ The tutorial button is positioned right beside the “next activity” button.

As it stand it needs work but as the potential to be a great game.
When you start up the game, there is some selections that come with perks. As of right now you have no way of telling what the perk does besides judging the name of the perk. As a new player, it can be even harder as you don’t know the game mechanics so it’s even harder to choose.
How you view the formulas needs changing. There are only two columns that you can view, but you can easily see five columns on the screen. You should also be able to filter the view for game play reasons. For instance, I noticed that a lot of my customers are asking for potions for being an actor, I should be able to narrow the formulas to see what I have already created.

Alchemist Simulator
I’m not going to lie, this is a very cute and casual game - some thought goes into preparing the potions and there are goals on a daily basis. Some of which has somewhat of a story, which is a great addition to a management game. I have yet to finish the game, so the price is definitely worth the time you spend in it. For now, my review of this game is a thumbs up - but will edit with further information when I either finish or get to a point in the game that completes all the achievements :)
Currently I have found no bugs, but the game could use with a little more polish, and perhaps a little more gameplay. I’d love to see if this product continues on and, if so, where it might lead.

If possible, I’m not rating this either recommended or not recommended. If I can’t do that, I will give it a No recommendation, but it’s a near thing.
This is almost, but not quite, a really cool game.
Pros:
-
The game is cute, and runs smooth. Graphics all go together/look good.
-
I didn’t see a lot of bugs (I may have seen one, but it could have been user error on my part).
-
It didn’t take a lot of time to understand how the game worked, and the tutorial gave you just about everything you needed to know to get going and figure the rest out yourself.

The Corporate Machine
The first thing I need to say is READ THE MANUAL! If you’re like me and tend to play a casual game or two to get the hang of things it’s very easy to have no idea what you are doing and lose the game. A quick skiim of the manual will give you an idea of what is what and how the game runs.
I very nearly wrote a bad review after my first game after giving up in just five minutes, I hadn’t read the manual and had no clue what I was doing.
The graphics and sound options on the game are not great, basic graphics and no volume control are something of a turn-off, but you can do what I did and turn off the game’s music and ignore the graphiocs quality.

I got this with stardock legends pack, so it was so cheap. It works on my win 10, and I don’t update it unless it asks me so it works perfectly on win10. First with the cons, the training isn’t working as it shows when you press f2 ( it’s been showed in help, f1) so I played a game at beginner than “difficult in pain”. After few lose I managed to own the world. So there should be some ways to endure the others. Ok you will say me to use cards and lucki but cards require too much resources for a losing company. Maybe I’m telling this because MOBA games and their competitive game strategy is popular now, however, I still think there should be balance. Also I wish to have suggestions to continue after 55% global market sharings. Or there would be other choices such as technology winnig. And pros, if you like this kind of games you will like it. You really need to control market, demand and sellings should be balanced very well, otherwise you lose. I really liked it. I wish ppl upgraded it till now, but this gem also lost itself in the marketing :/

VEGTERIA - Vegetable Shop Simulator
Nothing but problems, food by the hundreds go missing, even when reloading that missing food does not show up, playing this game is a nightmare, prices are way too low considering all the bugs this game has, also we need player options , i do not like a game dictating what keys i use, please fix this very bad game

First, let me say to please ignore the number of hours played. I left the game on pause while I did other things so the actual hours is whatever you see minus approximately 5 hours.
Secondly, I purchased the game as a bundle and I should have read the other reviews first.
Okay so here goes my review:
I played for 30 minutes and realized that the game was going to be sub par because everything is stagnant. The npcs don’t have any dialog and nothing basically happens except your character moving boxes around. I was excited at first because I thought that as I got better at the game by delivering vegetables that I would open up more veggies that made me more money but by the time I was able to do potatoes, I realized that my profit was extremely low. The max profit was $1 per item by this time and it seemed tedious to keep going. I wanted to get to the vehicle and the farm but really did not have the energy to keep going.

The Vellescian Gambit
The Vellescian Gambit is a very neat game that looks like a visual novel, but is actually more of an economics-based puzzle game embedded in a well-written but compact visual novel. I highly recommend it for those looking for a new twist on the VN genre, or games with economics or trade-related themes.
Your character is given a particular mission that needs to be accomplished with limited resources and time, and nearly every single choice has small consequences that add up and determine what happens. In this sense, it is quite different from your run-of-the-mill VNs, where the player has very limited control over what happens. You freely choose from many possible options, ranging from which routes to take and the pace of travel, how much protection to hire, and what commodities to buy and sell along the road (or whether to do any trading, as it can cost you precious time).

Desolation Tycoon
The world has ended, but life moves on. Your home is a wasteland scoured by winds blowing in from a caustic sea. Most large mammals are extinct, and insects have filled their roles.
You are a merchant traveling this land in search of profit. Each character you play starts with a randomly generated history and traits. And eventually, each character’s career will come to an end — whether through successful retirement or tragic death.
The game remembers everything you do, and the world is persistent across characters. As a consequence of your actions, civilization will slowly grow and rebuild. Accomplishments accrued across any number of characters will unlock new cities, new crew units, new challenges, and so on.
There is no fixed storyline. Instead, you have a setting, a set of gameplay mechanics, and complete freedom to do with that what you will.
Core features:
-
Travel, trade, and defend your cargo from dangers.
-
Improve your skills through usage.
-
Find and explore places that are worth plundering.
-
Build relationships with city notables, and co-operate with them on various schemes.
-
Rebuild a persistent world across multiple lifetimes.
-
Make trade-offs in encounters that are purely decision-driven, and avoid grindy minigames.
-
Enjoy a high-information user interface that doesn’t ask you to remember things unnecessarily.
Example challenges:
-
Local climate calamities.
-
Giant insects, bandits, and much worse.
-
Each character will automatically retire if they live long enough; this does not leave enough time to develop all possible skills.
-
Networks of supply and demand are randomized between playthroughs.
-
You can’t stay in a trade route rut, because trading with the same cities too much will make it less profitable.
-
You and your crew can become injured or sick — and possibly die as a result.
-
The locals that you trade and scheme with have minds of their own, and may betray you.
-
Performance-enhancing symbiotes may seem like a great idea, but can lead to unfortunate side-effects.
-
Oh, and there are also demons. They complicate everything.
This is not an action-oriented game. Time doesn’t pass unless you’re doing something, and there are no real-time challenges. Instead, gameplay is strictly about the making of intelligent trade-offs in an open-world setting with many potential courses of action.
Feudal Baron: King’s Land
The king has granted you the right to oversee a medieval city and the surrounding lands. This is not only a great privilege, but also a demanding task. You begin with only a handful of citizens, a modest settlement, and your task will be to gather the resources necessary to grow your city and design its layout wisely, and ensure that your subjects are satisfied with your rule.
Gold is a resource that makes progress possible. Take advantage of your vassals and create a profitable tax system, because not only do you need it to develop your city, but you also must satisfy the needs of the royal treasury, after all, your king is your liege. Use various buildings to utilise collected materials, craft tools, weapons and armour and sell them to the merchants.
Defending the land against the enemies of the realm is also one of your tasks. Prepare the city for the attacks of foreign invaders, collect goods to survive the siege and garrison the fortifications. If the defences fail, your settlement can be sacked, citizens killed and buildings burned down.
Medieval times are not easy for the rulers, you will face all sorts of calamities like fires, plague outbreaks or rebellions of discontented citizens.
