Rum & Gun
Hi!
Here is yet another game review after playing this game for a while i truly got into it and i am enjoying it.
This is a pirate game without any ships a rowing boat yes but no ships so if you are looking for a pirate game with ships to sail the high seas and sink ships and steal their plunder then this game is not for you.
This game is based around YOU a pirate on land killing monsters and other fellow pirates you will have various maps to unlock spread over various (ACTS) i am on Act 2 but i think there will be 3 Acts or more to unlock.

I’ve been following this game’s development for some time, and I instantly bought it.
What really surprised me is that just for 4 euros, I expected much less content. Only one act is playable currently, but it contained 6 hours of gameplay to me. So the first big issue of the game, is that it’s too cheap :D
I would say that it’s base is similar to Diablo II, but with interesting twists on the mechanics, and the combat got a good, Doom-like, situation based weapon arsenal, which I enjoyed mastering. In the early stages the builds are flexible as well, but by the end of the game, I started dying, so I had to use most of my toolkit, changing my weapons nearly from enemy to enemy. Which was a good feeling, because I could master my skills for a long time.

Pirates Are BLANKing Awesome is an awkward top-down shooter that involves no skill, only luck. Movement feels non-responsive, and enemies will fire 5-10 bullets before you can even see them. 4/10

Sink Again
If you want light-weight pirate-y fare with a primitive economic model coupled with a bunch of turn-based mini dungeon crawls and disconnected scenarios that have you starting from scratch after each mission, then this game is for you!
If you’re not looking for all that, you might still get your money’s worth out of the game. I’ve only completed a few of the scenarios and yet there is enough meat here that I’ve got over 20 hours in, and the rewards for each scenario are interesting enough that I want to see what the next batch will add to my arsenal.

Nice little game. Not very complicated as turn-based / strategy game, and it tends toward grinding, but it manages to keep me busy and interested. Also, the silly slapstick jokes make me smile. If you ever wanted to play as a gorilla bashing pirates with an anchor…
The game comes with a good number of “scenarios”. Start a scenario, you get a (very) small ship and 2000 gp, and a selection of 3 to 5 pirates to hire in the nearby tavern. First hire is free, and is usually the one you pick as the captain of your crew - at start, anyway, you can change your captain later.

This is a very simple pirate game with 3 modes and minimalist graphics. Music is acceptable in quality. Map is way too small. Controls are responsive but feel more like you’re controlling an RC car from an 8- or 16-bit title than a pirate ship.
There are no bots or an obvious way to host a dedicated server. Player counts are so extremely low that you must bring your own friends to make this game worthwhile.
For an occasional casual game, it’s of acceptable quality and quite a bit of fun, but if you don’t have friends to bring along or want a long-term game to invest time into, I suggest going with a different offering.

Build Em' Faster
This game is perfect if you suffer nostalgia from the old times of Rampart. It is a fresh remake of the game in 3D with the same mechanics and modern graphics. local multiplayer is perfect for family game.

This game is really confusing and the description is very misleading and lies.
It’s a game where you make a fort, survive an oncoming wave and then rebuild for a point score and then restart. There are no credits, no AI to do the same thing with you so basically a lonely single player and there is no online forcing you to play pier to pier or online remote play or parsec which i don’t have right now and it looks like it would be fun with friends but needs a little more polish.

Battle of Frigates
If I’ve played 45 hours, I must like it! Or else there’s a bug that makes the game think it’s running, even though it won’t open, if you try to open it mulitple times wihtout restarting your PC. Those madcap glitchy frigates.
It’s a straightforward top-down shooter, inspired by Battle City on the NES (if I correctly understand what the developer means by “Tanks in Dendy”). Twenty levels, not too hard once you learn the strategies and level layouts. You’ll get a couple hours' enjoyment out of it. This type of game has been done many times, sometimes better, but it provides enough fun for . . . wait, $2.99?

(!!!MAJOR REVIEW CHANGE!!!)
So originally, I had said I would not recommend this game, however I also stated that I would change it if my problems with the game were fixed. So, I am happy to say that with the update 0.7.1 (which was the next update after my review) the following problems have been fixed to my satisfaction.
1: Inability to escape from battle (FIXED)
2: Lack of Warning about losing inventory (FIXED)
3: Quest tracking (FIXED)
Sooo, since all my complaints are fixed to my acceptance, I am happy to change my review to RECOMMEND! I left my complaints so you can see what I was upset about. Hope this helps!

I really got hooked on the construction mechanics, i would definetly play for hours building ships if there were more materials and color options for said materials. A few comments on the construction though, i would really like more available visibility while making designs (360° vision). Most of the UI needs fixing (better construction inventory, texts that fit), but i indeed liked where the game is going and the potential it has. I would love to help in the translation if you are planing to doing it also in spanish. counter or markers for needed sails or weight balance would be great. For now, I’ll keep designing ships till i get the perfect one. Good luck and keep on the good work…

Silent Sector
Has combinations of good ideas and some messy stuff that ruin the fun.
Annoying stuff would be:
-Big ships are useless because they have destructible modules that cause your pricey as hell weapons to be permanently lost when the modules are destroyed. Repairing the modules does not recover the weapons.
-Small ships easily get wrecked because enemies have grappling hooks (for which I have no idea why are in the game at all but to frustrate the player) that can drag you very near in the cluster of enemies and turn you into instant minced meat. You can try to use the same gear too, but you will never be as deadly as enemy as they rely on numbers.

The game is super suitable to get some fun and entertainment in between. It is neither boringly simple nor frustratingly difficult. Many reviews complain about the controls, but the movement style of the spaceship can now be adjusted to one’s own preferences. In general, the support is fast and friendly. The story can be played through in a finite amount of time, which I personally consider positive. I don’t like games in which I have to invest a significant part of my life, my library is too big for that ;) After finishing the story, the game is not over, you can continue to solve quests if you like.

I was brought in to test the game for Early Access (full disclosure), but it’s been a blast to play. I’m sure it’ll only get better from here.
