A very thoughtful and intelligent design for a game.
You definitely need good communication skills or friends that can enjoy failing, a lot.
Some parts of the game are glitchy and often you should fall but don't or vise versa.
Overall a very enjoyable game, definitely worth the small price for a good laugh.

Just like the other two TWD, Michonne is definitely worth buying especially if you like the series or choice influencing games.
"A friend recommended this and I'm so glad they did.
At first I wasn't sold on the art style and thought it would ruin the experience for me but once I started the game I couldn't picture it in any other style and the soundtracks are gorgeous.
I'm a sucker for choice influenced games and this is one stands out because the choices are intensified with the timer, sometimes you don't even get the chance to really think about all the options and you just have to go with your gut or risk a poor outcome.
The character relations are so beautiful it's genuinely heartbreaking to see how some choices affect them.
As in most choice influenced games you can compare your choices with other peoples and see how you rank and the fact that all the games link up and your previous game choices match on to the next game is a huge plus.
It's beautifully captivating and I highly recommend"

Just like The Walking Dead, Season Two is definitely worth buying especially if you like the series or choice influencing games, and the fact that all the games link up and your previous game choices match on to the next game is a huge plus.

Burn Me Twice is an absolute gem of a game.
The medieval mystery game is perfect for those who enjoy a thorough magical investigation, it has an adorable and spooky art style and the soundtrack fits perfectly.
The atmosphere of this game is incredible, it's highly enjoyable and captivating, I only wish there was more to it.
Burn Me Twice supports a lot of different gaming systems so it can be a little fiddly, and it's designed to be played with a controller so your mouse won't work. There are a few things that kind of affect gameplay, like having to repeat the puzzles each time you sleep or having to run all the way across the map for one small thing, as well as you have to read all the dialogue otherwise you won't know what to do or where to go, there are also a few inconsistencies to the game but unless you're extremely nitpicky it won't tarnish the experience.

Overall a fun little game.

Stardew Valley is definitely worth it. The game is very extensive in the terms of farming, dungeon crawling (not as major as a true dungeon crawler), character relations, stories and tasks/missions.
Stardew Valley is a farming simulation game primarily inspired by the Harvest Moon video game series, it's pleasantly time consuming as you cannot rush the game do to time constraints and energy usage, and there's just so much to do, it's one of the most story-rich games I own.
The soundtrack has a large array of songs you'll hear over the course of the game and the sound effects increase the rich character of the game and the art style is aesthetically beautiful considering it's pixel art (that can be quite difficult to balance out).

Ambient, captivating, and universal with anthropomorphism, the prologue for the upcoming noir-inspired adventure game 'Backbone' by EggNut certainly gained my support. The demo, which can be completed in roughly an hour, is long enough to hook the player into the story but short enough to keep you wanting more, it's an enjoyable little dive into the gloomy world of vice, excessive neon lighting, and furries.
While pixel art video games can come across as a bit gimmicky these days, Backbone is anything but. Any praise this side-scroller receives for its detailed visuals, slick animations and luscious lighting is undoubtedly justified. There are some great lighting effects, from the dreary alleys to the luscious, neon-lit streets of Vancouver, BC. The music is appropriately chilled and noir-esque; the look and feel of the whole game is simply breathtaking.

I can't wait for the games release date.

One of the best medieval fantasy world RPG's, not only are there plenty of stories and missions but every decision has different consequences the player has to live with.
The player often finds themselves choosing from the lesser of two evils rather than making a clear choice between good and evil, a situation reflective of real-life morality.

Players can choose one of three fighting styles to use in different situations and against different foes, there are plenty of weapon choices, and alchemy is also a significant part, you can't complete the game without it.
A time-delayed decision-consequence system means that the repercussions of the players decisions will make themselves apparent in plot devices in later acts of the game. This adds to the game's replay value, as the consequences resulting from the player's decisions can lead to significant differences in the events that take place later, and ultimately a very different gameplay experience than in prior play-throughs.

Just like the original Don't Starve will never, ever hold your hand, and I love it (and hate it) for that, it's a rogue-like at heart meaning death is inevitable and once you die it's truly game over, however in Don't Starve Together you do it together.
Klei Entertainment's stylish take on Minecraft's formula through the lens of survival drops you into the gorgeous wild and immediately abandons you to figure out how to survive on your own.
I love the paper-cutout graphical style and whimsical presentation, like a popup book from the mind of Tim Burton. The gothic-inspired look makes even the most amiable shrubbery seem threatening, the visuals are accompanied by a carnivalesque soundtrack that is immediately catchy and the atmosphere of a child's storybook gone awry is aided by a novelesque menu system and comically blunt bits of story.

I'm not one for spacey/sciencey types of games but ONI is a classic survival simulation video game, like Terraria's nerdy friend. At the start of a new game, three duplicants find themselves in an asteroid with isolated pockets of breathable atmosphere, with no memory of how they got there, the player is tasked with managing and taking care of these duplicants as they try to survive and create a sustainable makeshift space colony. This game requires major time management skills and organisation, you have to delegate tasks accordingly and keep a close eye on your supply levels, one slip up and your duplicants will be dying left, right and centre. As well as being incredibly fun to play this game is also slightly educational, with its use of circuits, plumbing, and ventilation, if something is missing or slightly out of place the systems you are trying to build, i.e. oxygen providers, toilets, or air filters, won't work.
