I like this game. If you like roguelike deckbuilders, you'll most probably like this one too. However, it uses dice and cards, so it doesn't exactly play like pure deckbuilders. Just go with that expectation. As of Update 5, it is a good game, but I sense it has potential to be great with future updates.

Wow, it's Hades on steroids, and it's not even finished yet. They've cooked well, and there's still much more to serve. Hades 2 is already looking like one of the greats. They've kept it fresh yet familiar, introducing new mechanics that also add to the story. Better than expected.

Hades, Vampire Diaries, and old school Diablo had a deadly threesome and produced this time-sucking gem. And it's still under development. I've played it for only a few hours and have unlocked all the characters, but there's still so much more to explore. Can't wait to see how the developers expand upon it further.

Wow, this is the perfect casual yet challenging game. You can keep playing for hours on end, but you can also play it for just under an hour, and still feel satisfied.

What the....where did all the time go. I started yesterday afternoon on a whim, and it's already late morning today. One of the most addictive games I've ever played.

However, no vampires though. I'll wait for them.

Edit: Finished the game at around 225 hours mark. It's one of the best games I've ever played. The best story-based RPG game for sure. I feel kind of empty after finishing it. Time to go for a dark urge play through, I guess. There are so many ways to replay this game, I'm in sort of a paralysis. I want to take my time and mull over it.

I've played this game for 70 hours in the last 5 days, and I'm still in Act 1. I've forgotten all about my life, friends, family, work, etc. Some were worried about my sudden disappearance, and I had to reassure them that it was all fine and I'd just plugged into another universe. Is this why this campaign setting is called the Forgotten Realms? Maybe.

If you like D&D-type RPGs, you'll love this game. I played BG1&2 just before playing this game to refresh my memory, but it's not required. I liked the subtle nods here and there, but that's pretty much it. I wish they'd have called it something else instead of BG3 (like Baldur's Gate: A New Beginning, or something similar, I don't know, I'm only a player). I know so many who are hesitant to play this only because they don't know anything about the previous two games.

It's now time to plug myself back into the game. Have fun!

An enjoyable experience. Short and sweet.

This game is a mix of puzzle solving, object finding, exploration, and chase/avoidance sequences.

The cat controls, animation, and behavior are spot on.

P.S. I hope they use the this game as a base to create more cat-based games. Or better yet, expand it to other animals too. The controls remind me of the mounts system in some MMORPGs (particularly Guild Wars).

Jazzes up your desktop.

I don't play that many videogames these days, especially on PC. And thanks to my work, I especially don't play games that require a lot of time. So, I stick to casual ones that can be played in batches.

This one's different. It intrigued me because of its sudden burst in popularity. I and my wife were also looking for a game that we could play together, and this one checks off all the right marks. It's an open-world, co-op game with tons of things to explore and do. You can adapt it to your own play style. Gather materials, build houses, hunt animals, craft equipment, kill bosses, or just go wild.

I can imagine us playing this for hundreds of hours without getting bored. And it's still in early access? How's that possible? I wonder what the completed version would look like.

One of the best, cutest, and most addictive tower defense games I have played. I'd played its previous versions long ago, while it was still a flash game on Kongregate. I'm glad to have rediscovered this gem, and even more glad that its team has built upon its successes to create a rich, diverse game worthy of the full desktop experience. There's something awkward and funny about monkey taking down balloons, and I'm sure I'll enjoy doing it for many more hours.
