“Sometimes I wish I was an octopus, so I could slap eight people at once.”



About me:

I'm older than the hills; hell, i babysat serana (google it all you non skyrimmers)

I have loved video games ever since pong and the old text zork games. I split my playtime between playstation and steam. Have friends on both and will play with both so if I don't see you on one; maybe the other.

I rarely take anything seriously. Irreverent would be the nice descriptor, royal smart-ass probably closer to the truth.

I'm picky about accepting friends. Don't send me a request if you're profile is private without a note on my profile. If you like having fun, aren't a troll by nature fire away a request. If not, "I'll chase you 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Antares Maelstrom and 'round perdition's flames." (google it you non-Trek heathens). :steammocking:

I have a friend who likes to tell people that he is a foodie and then proceeds to talk about every type of food he doesn't like. For some reason, so called 'gamers' are the same. If it's not 'epic' and open world it's not worth playing. Don't get me wrong, I love open world games as the 800+ hours on skyrim (and even more on PS verson) will tell you, but I appreciate all games. They just have to be good for what they are. This is a game for anyone who is a true gamer.
It is a very short game. I had to play it twice just to get the card drops. So why would I recommend it? Put simply, for what it is it is brilliant.
The artwork fits the game like a glove. The story, albeit short, is captivating with enough humor sprinkled in to make you chuckle. The music fits as well. Enough puzzles to keep it from being a visual novel, but nothing taxing on the brain. (If you want hard puzzles play The Talos Principle Road to Gehenna and get all the stars and silver sigils.)
But most of all, it was 90 minutes (one playthrough) with a smile on my face, I just simply enjoyed it. Most games I play, even though I enjoy, I know that it is a one and done. Glad I played it, but I'll move on. This game will be put in the scapbook as I will definitely replay it from time to time just to put that 90 minute smile on my face (especially as a break from playing dark souls and setting a record for seeing the words 'You have died' pop up).
If you are like me, and appreciate well crafted games that are pure enjoyment, DO NOT PASS UP ON THIS GAME! I can't wait to see what the devs do next.
CHEERS!!!

Glad to hear from you on Steam. Hope life is good.
Man, I'm old now.
I am guessing you are older too.
Better than the alternative.
I all but got married, moved and bought an old house when interest was 2.99.
A pandemic came, some fuss about this that and the other and then
a Chinese Spy balloon came by just to see it. Eggs are $5. Gas back down to $3
I think that sums up the last 4 years.
Rambling as always ...
Waiting for Starfield ... Tick Tock.
