Ever wished you could create art? Be an artist in a community of artists? This game allows you the illusion that you can be one.

You go out and discover Montreal and as you do a few quest odd jobs, discover things in your neighbourhood and throughout the city you collect a multitude of stamps and colours which allow you to create your own art, which you can then go sell. At first in a charming coffee shop then eventually as you progress further through the game you can clean up and restore a building which you can use as a gallery.

I found it a relaxing and fun way to explore a new game.

One of the most polished AAA games I have played in years. This is a gem of an ARPG. The environments are stunning, the gameplay fun. So far I am enjoying the story and loving getting to know my companions. Don't let the hate brigades put you off from playing this beautiful game. You will miss out on a great gameplay experience.

A solid, cute sudoku game made by Devcats. The cats are cute, there are plenty of in game options for whatever background/combo you enjoy/prefer. You can change it to the usual numbers if you prefer that to cats. The puzzles get progressively harder but are never too hard and there are some nice hint options to help you out if you get stuck.

It's a Bethesda RPG set in space that does exactly what it says on the tin. If you have played and loved Elder Scrolls and Fallout games there is a familiarity to everything involved that is like a nice warm homely blanket.

It is worth following the main quest for a while as it is a good tutorial on what's new in this universe. Other than that just get out there and explore. I hope you all enjoy it. I certainly am.

Not sure what happened to the review I wrote for this game on Steam a few years ago - ah well.

Thief II still stands for me as the best stealth game ever made. I have bought so many copies of it over the years and played through the disc version many times before it ever appeared on Steam.

Ignore the dated graphics and enjoy;

A comprehensive stealth system where you are a thief not an assassin with many routes you can take to complete each level giving the game immense replay value.

Lots of lovely loot to collect and so many secrets to discover.

The wonderful ascerbic wit of Garret's narration and the many humorous npc dialogues that you can eavesdrop upon as you play through the game.

An intriguing and thrilling plot that makes sense.

The beautiful drawn story panels before each level.

Rope arrows.

A ridiculously large number of mods both for graphics and new levels for the game - see here for instructions on how to mod the game on Steam - https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=113169312

How can I only have played 7 hours with this game - it felt so much longer.

Fun gameplay with some good puzzles though it did take me a while to get used to the controls when controlling both characters at the same time.

A wonderful story with some great humour that may leave you feeling as though your heart has been ripped from your chest.

Buy it on sale - it is more than worth your money despite the short length.

This is the first time I have wished that there was a Neutral button for a review.

The Good:

This game has a great story that pulls you in, a great atmosphere that gives some genuine chills, some well done puzzles and the objects that you need to find to use to progress make sense.

The Bad:

A very abrupt cliff-hanger ending that leaves your heroine in peril with no sequel in sight. :-( It leaves you feeling as though you are missing two thirds of the game.

Conclusion:

Although I enjoyed what there is of it, I was very glad that I didn't pay the full price. If you enjoy hidden object games then you will enjoy this one but buy during a sale and be prepared to be very annoyed with the abrupt ending.

If you love a challenge you will enjoy this game. It's a lot of fun and very addictive.

It's Grand Theft Auto on steroids with superb Kung Fu fighting and more mini-games than you can shake a nunchuck at. Worth every penny and then some. I love this game.

A beautiful, hypnotic and strangely addictive strategy game.
