Alpha game in early access. The state of development reflects that. When I first got it, it was extremely raw. Features have been added and the game has been refined with feedback. Progress is being made. The developers are responsive. A fun little strategy game is shaping up. What more what I ask of an indie early access game?

This is an insanely good FMV game. The choices really DO matter, even seemingly inconsequential ones at the beginning. You start to feel the pressure as the story goes on. It's great. The acting is solid, the story is engaging, and the buildup to the ending(s) is just incredible. This is the interactive movie experience we've been promised for years.

If you're expecting deep or strategic gameplay, you will be deeply disappointed. If you want a good story, cool animation style graphics, and a lot of Titan-kicking action, then you'll be perfectly happy. This is an incredibly enjoyable game with fun fighting and a solid story.

If you like Marble Age and other such resource allocation turn based strategy games, this is a solid entry in the genre. From the developers of Marble Age, they turn this time to Ancient Egypt and the historical events of the early dynasties. The gameplay is very simple, but difficult to master. There's a small learning curve at first as you stumble across some common strategic mistakes. However, it takes time and effort to really be able to play the game on hard mode. The resource distribution is random, so each playthrough presents some different challenges and you cannot rely on a single strategy to skate through the game. If you dig this type of strategy game, it's very well made and offers many hours of gameplay.

A fun two pack of interactive fictions games for a reasonable price. The art and sound design are stellar. Despite being bold and distinctive, the design in no way distracts from or interferes with the gameplay. I've dug deeper into the Vampire story than the Mage one. The writing is high quality and the narrative is very engaging. I also really love the cellphone interface conceit in the Vampire game. Whether you are a fan of choose your own adventure style interactive fiction or the World of Darkness, you'll most likely enjoy this bargain price 2 title set.

This is a great game with the quality you'd expect for the price point. If you're a fan of strategy battles, tabletop wargaming, or Warhammer 40K, it will be a solid addition to your Steam Library. I'm having a lot of fun with it. It's exactly the kind of game that I enjoy. And it's a good W40K to taste to hold me over until DoW III. But it stands up just fine as a game on its own. I'm loving the Space Wolves.

One of the classic story-rich RPGs. Based on the 3rd Edition of D&D rules with a scifi and Force based twist, there's a lot of fun in building the character sheet throughout the course of play. Repeat plays allow for a lot of different paths and options, especially with the morality system. A+++.
