Early Access Review
A pretty entertaining "base" building game. Lacks a lot of polish at the moment, but it looks promising. The game needs a lot of improvments, and more items to build, but for right now the game is pretty decent. Despite all the annoying bugs, and odd annoyances, Spacebase DF-9 is worth it imo for early access.

Do yourself a favor and get this game! If you want a story that will blow your mind away, with choices that affect the game later on, then this is the game for you. It has zombies, its got substance, and it's storytelling at its finest.

Built my dream rocket with hundreds of thrusters. It was too heavy and exploded on the launch pad. :/

I'm not a rocket scientist, nor an engineer. But Kerbal is the closet thing to being that. KSP lets me build rockets of my own imagination and to explore the cosmos at my own pace.

10/10.

The closet experience to war from the comfort of your living room. The graphics are superb, the online is heaps of fun, and the realism is frustratingly fun. 10/10

Early Access Review
A fanatastic game mixing horror with fort-survival-building in perfect harmony. The atmosphere is simply stunning to say the least. Hats off to the developers to making the bushes from a far look like the canibals standing still and observing you (who knows maybe it's really them?). A game that can make you feel a myriad of emotions over a short play session is a hard feat. At times I felt calm collecting wood to build my fort hearing the calming sounds of the birds, and at other times extremely stressed trying to find food, and other times absolutely horrified to venture deeper into the forest to get supplies because the "things" are extremely alien, scary, and well things that nightmares are made of...

Here's a recap of my experience.

Day 1:
Built a hut on the beach after being scared to death after seeing "it". At night I saw "them" walking from the forest into the ocean? I stayed near my hut at night.

Day 2:
Saw "them" again jumping from tree to tree while spearing fish at the beach. Kept building my fort / hut and went about my own business hunting for food/supplies.

Day 3:
Ventured deeper into the woods to collect wood. One of "them" spotted me and froze. I ran towards it, and killed it.

Day 4:
Their leader had a fire skull, and brought more of them to kill me.

Day 5?:
Woke up in a cave. Found the fire leader after stumbling through the cave with just a lighter in hand. I died. Nearly shat myself after that experience.

10/10

A challenging hypnotizing racer worth every penny that's different every time you play! This game is a blast with its level and region changing mechanic with plenty of power ups to collect and portals to get sucked into along the way. It's a game for those seeking a challenge and perfect for mastery game enthusiasts. So, If you're looking for a challenge and a high octane rush that will captivate with stunning scenery in a minimalistic fashion then go buy this game! -- Just don't crash into a wall.

"When a bullet hits you, face the consquences. Every step the enemy takes may as well be their last. Teamwork is the focal point of Insurgency, and it is why this FPS will be the foundation for what future FPS games aspire to be."

Insurgency isn't just another vanilla fps that relies on the quick go get-em pray and spray kind of multiplayer FPS that we've all become acustom to these days, but instead in its own right has brought back the realism back to a genre full of too much clutter. It's fresh. It's intense. And it's got substance. It's not a game for those looking to pop off a few rounds and kill an entire squad, but more so for the patient fps gamer who is looking for a fps game with "teamwork" being its central mechanic.

Albeit, Insurgency may not appeal to most fps gamers because of it's minimal HUD, or lack of features, but at its core, it proves that sometimes simpler is better and that maybe that sometimes when a bullet hits you, you have to face the consequences. But who's not to say Insurgency doesn't come with its fair share of bugs? A beloved mod turned into a standalone game has a lot of work to do, but for the price point you really can't complain. An accomplishment all on its own. It offers a lot for the price being advertised, and the community involved with Insurgency offers more value that you can't get with other FPS games.

The maps blend the nostalgic feeling of many beloved FPS games and incorperates what Insurgency does best. Teamwork! In the game modes in multiplayer may feel repetitive at first, but play with the right team and every go around will play differently and keep you on th edge of your seat. One bullet to the chest and it can be game over. One slip up, and your weapon cache is destroyed. Every action has a reaction and vice versa.

Escorting the vip together, guarding an objective, and trying to out-smart the other team is what makes Insurgency a FPS game that's worth every penny.

Nimble Quest is a fun, neat, quirky, twist on the beloved classic of the game Snake.

If you're looking for a quick game to get your mind off things, and or to just simply zone out for a few sessions, then I highly reccomend getting Nimble Quest. Whether, for mobile, tablet, or for desktop, Nimble Quest will keep you entertained for hours on end when you need it.

A great "toilet seat game" in which it provides hours of fun in short quick bursts when you need to zone out and it does the job well. The game mechanics are well balanced, and the game provides that nostalgic arcade like gameplay that many games have seem to forgotten. So If you're looking for depth, NQ doesn't have depth, but if you're looking for something to keep you entertained for a while then this is the game that will do that job exceptionally well.
