As others have said, it's hard to review without spoiling it. Played Pony Island? It's going to be a little like that.

It is... an experience. And that's putting it lightly.

It's one of those games that you will get the best out of if you go in blind. One that will never have that same thrill again once you replay it.

Is it worth replaying? Totally. The card game mechanics are fun. You can even make your own cards, buff them up, and so on.
Edit: Recently, Kaycee's Mod - a free mini-expansion, was released. If you're mostly into the card game and wish you could just play that part endlessly, the mod is all about that with additional cards and challenges. Now there is even more replay value!

It's not just about the card game, of course, there are little puzzles and a whole lot more.

It's worth the price. If you're on the fence, wait for a sale.

I don't know why exactly, but this is my go-to game at the moment when I want something fun and calming. Maybe it's because I started watching too much HGTV during the pandemic and was always the type of person that only liked building houses in The Sims. If you're the same, maybe you'll like it too.
The game has a few ways to play. There are jobs where you go in, clean, and do exactly what the customer wants. After saving up some money, you can jump into buying a house and doing what you want with it. Go as realistic as you want or have fun making the silliest spaces you can think of (especially with some of the Workshop items you can find).
My only complaints are that I wish there were more jobs to do (like more with new updates) as well as not being able to paint the ceilings (although I hear you can once the Pets DLC drops). I also wish you can have more than one save file - I'd love to have another chance to redo some houses I've already flipped without having to restart my whole game.

baby

Stupid fun for cheap. Like Town of Salem but actually fun.

I didn't expect to date a skeleton, nor have the ammount of feels that I had. It was a wild ride for such a small game.

I blame DashieGames for making this game look so cool.

35mm was an experience. I got it during the summer sale under $4, so I can't complain and I honestly liked it.

There are some calm parts, exciting parts, and even some spooky parts. The walking speed is a little slow, but thankfully there is a run button. What I really loved about the game was the will to keep on going and see what the story held next.

Only cons I have at this point is that I honestly don't know what taking pictures even do in this game... Maybe when achievements come out they will mean something? Might have to give it another play through then, especially since I feel like I still have more to exploe - and this is after 4 hours of gameplay.

First off - Haaaaaaaaay it has my name in it. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited and grinning like an idiot every time they said "Mel."

The puzzles are a little hard. Either I'm just that dumb or it's been a long while since I last played a Portal game, but I was too focused on making the story go forward that I do admit to using no-clip to cheat my way forward. So if challenging puzzles are your thing, awesome. A lot of the old stuff returns as well as a few new things.

Story wise... hnnnng I can't say much because that'll spoil things! It's like Portal 2 in the way that you have a little core buddy and some big robot also after you. The ending was neat.. expect one little thing, at the VERY end, seems to conflict with what's canon for the Portal series? So I was all "wait, what?" Other than that, the ending movie and what it shows was neat - was almost like seeing Fallout in the background .

Otherwise very cute game overall.

I don't think I've cried over any other game this much in my life. It's a wild ride from start to finish. I HIGHLY recomend you play the first game AND the DLC before this one so you can get the full effect because some things from the first game carry on over to the second one.

I'm not usually one that likes FPS games with no meaning other than to shoot a lot of stuff because it's cool, but the game is actually pretty fun. Got it because a friend recommended it to me. Of course there is a lot of shootin' aliens and that, but you can sometimes pull their eyes out or rip their heads off, which is pretty awesome. Also the game rewards you with 'treasures' if you stray off the usual path. It's probably fun alone, but I personally love playing this with a friend. Also my favorite part? Replacing the gore and blood with rainbow confetti and candy <3
