One of the best survival horror games I've ever played. It has its own identity, an impeccable aesthetic/style throughout, meaningful storytelling and themes, and impactful, strongly written characters. THE MUSIC AND SOUND DESIGN IS AMAZING, TOO! I cannot compliment this game enough. Go play it!

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY (and play this game)

One of the best feeling FPS games I've played in years. If you loved Severed Steel, or if you enjoy any FPS games that mixes incredibly fast-paced movement, addictive and smooth gunplay, and rewards exploration, Echo Point Nova is calling for you.

I had no expectations and still felt disappointed with everything the game has to offer. Putting aside server and capacity issues: the gunplay felt awful, with the laughable impact of firing bullets that I witnessed when shooting enemies and how staggering enemies took a couple seconds to trigger. The gunplay just felt so jarring and clunky. There's no mantling, no maneuverability, no melee options, making the survivability extremely barebones against other players and zombies. The gameplay loop seems undercooked, even if we can generously call this "early access". The world felt abhorrently lifeless for something advertised as a "uniquely reimagined journey" within a "post-apocalyptic open-world MMO". Falsely advertising a game, that in reality is an extraction shooter with some survival elements and not an open-world MMO, is just blatantly rude of them to do and still advertise as at the time of this review.

Overall, I do not recommend this game to anyone in its current state. It's baffling they are selling this for the price it is.

One of the best puzzle games I've ever played. Its concept is simple yet unique, layering its mechanics on top of each other like different, flavorful stacks of cake. The soundtrack and sound design is incredible from start to finish. Although the puzzles aren't too perplexing, it strikes a great balance of simplistic and challenging gameplay. The team has created an immensely satisfying experience and enough to provide drops of dopamine as you explore COCOON's colorful and immersive worlds.

Where do I even start?! This game is so amazing and the dev team is incredible! The time and effort spent into making Dirge is noticed! I love that you can play as an investigator or monster. I also love that you can play solo if you choose and work on objectives. Its a fantastic game and I can't wait to 'hug' my friends at least once each time we play <3

It feels good to finally have the chance to say, "I'm in" when you're hacking into a network. How many times in your life can you do that properly?
