Some looney actually made a proper remake from the first episode of boomer shooter Duke Nukem 3D. So this ain't just a launcher - there might be some other gems to be downloaded for free!

I wish I could go back in time and tell the game's devs that someday you guys are reviving a franchise that just was put to sleep for next 20 years.

Owkay, I have played plenty of Bodur's games and I purchased this with only 22 cents and completed it around in half an hour meaning that I had circa 1.5 minutes of content per cent. I can say it was ok, but there is not any feature that would be somewhat remarkable, so the game feels, meh and flat. There is so many better walking sims nowadays in Steam and ironically the dev himself is partly the reason, for Bodur's games have gotten so much better after this. Thus if I were you I'd look for them instead and leave this ancient games to their own value. Nephise might have had some value in the past, but now its thin content dries out before any chance of blossoming and is not worth of your time.

..Unless you are for achievement haunting only and want just to grind those out. It still won't raise the game's value.

If you really don't know what this game is, you might be from Mars.

This Land is your Land, This Land is my Land...

I love already the name "Walden, a game" with those low key letters. Walden is more an experimental project than an actual game. It does not hold much on its surface but under it is a great philosophic message about living freely and what actual freedom and strength is and boy - even the protagonist is voiced by Emile Hirch, the actor who starred in Into the Wild. Among him the other voice talents (including Jim Cummings) breath life to this well crafted title, which is also said to be used in education and why not there is quite much topics from history of US and also things which touch globally everyone.

I lived as a hermit throughout the game and I say it was interesting, but grindy progress that was boring but somewhat unforgettable.

Walden was made for you and me.

2 steps forward on gameplay 1 step back on story. Holy Moses, I am talking like it is a new game despite being a decade old, damn the time flies fast. I am late with this third installment, but having beaten previous games this must be the most entertaining one and well-preserved. I did not always care so much of the story but when action is this fast paced and smooth I just didn't have much will to lower my weapons for too long until the credits roll. This must be the closest I ever become to Clint Eastwood's character in Dollar Trilogy at least on moves.

See that popular tag Education? Underline it. Enjoy the learning.

Have you ever gone walking in a forest in a warm cloudy summer Sunday? Having a warm cup of coffee after that and making yourself comfortable on your favorite chair and scroll your SoMe history and same time being more or less mindful what are you gonna do next week?

Lake has this feeling, it is peaceful, safe and sound which doesn't lean too much on complexity rather being on the edge of simplicity. There is not big twists, no huge drama no people getting killed. It's just about two weeks of Meredith Weiss being in a crossroads in her life, getting back to her remote childhood place and delivering mail, which is almost as boring as it sounds btw. However, the adult, but subtle themes and various characters made me stay in the Providence Oaks and I really liked that cozy five hour long journey. Lake is not phenomenal, neither unique, but still I have trouble thinking any other game like it. Maybe Fiewatch, but in a more upbeat way.

Considering the length and overall output the 20 bucks might be an inch of too expensive, but if you see it in sale I recommend. At least try the demo, which actually scratches everything the game offers.

It is actually ridiculous how so interesting game can make me so sleepy at the same time. lolzZz

Jokes aside, I believe that this is a walking sim in purest form. Nothing is explained and everything is simplified. No running, no jumping, no shooting, no driving, no solving - just exploration that doesn't actually push you but slowly opens through you proceed and make your investigation.

The game can't come more blissful than this.

Walking Simulator + 1. Nephise Ascension is the third and so far the final part of Nephise Trilogy creating a mysterious world with undead, giants and other magical beings. If you are familiar with Nephise games you might be familiar of gathering things until the next event opens, whatsoever it guaranteed that you get that more than enough with this game you also are introduced with platforming and simple minded puzzle solving and overall the package is pretty comprehensive plus you can jump!

Like most of the games in the franchise, Ascension is very beautiful game, with mesmerizing music and pretty story. However don't let some pics fool you for there is not actual combat or surviving elements for every moving obstacle you meet is blind and lifeless and you really can't die unless you are curious enough to go close to see what happens. You may also have noticed that main character is straightly ripped from some horny dream and if this kind of "eye candy" should be considered trump card, you are gonna be disappointed for the model appears just few times during gameplay, besides I found the whole character to be in conflict with the rest of the game. Why she dresses like some badass magic dominatrix if she commits such innocent deeds like carrying statues and collecting orbs? Can you give us some backstory?? I also had a moment of thought that the game broke in a triangle puzzle where you need to be exactly in specific spot in order to pass - this just caused me running aimlessly in an area looking for something while actually I had already solved what to do.

Ascension is not the greatest game, but still a decent walking sim which takes you into somewhere far far away for the moment it lasts. I recommend.
