Everything in Tristram is great. Atmosphere and the town theme is so good. Even the characters have neat dialogue and interesting backstories too. Love how every villager has some noticeable connections to one another. But then the gameplay happens. sigh
Well, i heard Diablo 2 is better.

It's more of the same, with few new mechanics. Would only recommend if you very much enjoyed the base game.
Old pc games that's still absolute fire. Part 1
What a time to be alive.
The messiest and most bloated mainline entry. With an absolutely poignant and fitting ending to Danganronpa as a whole. Rarely if ever do i feel games get proper endings, usually run out of gas near the end, but this was goddamn perfect.
2017
The artstyle is cool on the eyes if a little too simple for its subject matter i feel.
2018
Clunky, broken, unbalanced, unimaginative, and generally feels unfinished. Also there's a hard line to cross between being inspired and straight up plagiarizing a previous property. And this completely disregarded that line.
Game is good. But was obviously on a serious deadline to release alongside Riot's other stupidly enormous amount of "Riot X Arcane" content. Game is good. But maybe do wait a couple of months for proper bug and balance fixes, before giving it a shot. The composer is also composer for the Ori games, so yeah.
2017
It was quite fun, but also very much a time waster like almost every other AAA open world games. But yeah, eventually like 15 some such hours into the game, Horizon crashed my ps4 so hard, it killed its own savefile, alongside literally everything else on the system. Requiring a full factory reset. So yeah, never touching this again.
Blazkowicz deserves a hug, fuckin' jeez!

A bit premature but i still stand behind this rating. ULTRAKILL has a glorious future seeing forward to.
2021
Well ok then, this is an odd case. Nykra is currently as of this reviews date, the 18th of November, still incompletable. To apparently everybody it seems.
So i guess I'll return when this eventually gets patched to a functional state.

Forget the game. But do listen to the soundtrack.

Nice satisfying click clacks when filling in the board. Music is also nice, but loops way too quickly, to the point of me actually kinda loathing it now.
It's missing a pretty essential feature like graying out the numbers at the edges when you're playing. I was stumbling real bad the first couple of hours, but eventually learned to adapt.
The lives system i find is slightly ruining the fun of actually solving the boards, because you can cheat by wasting one whenever you're particularly stuck.
Also this just might be my terribly shaky hands, but the fact that you can't just hold left click, and let it only clear the strait line without swerving elsewhere. Is slightly aggravating.
(Well, end of this overly long rant about picross of all things)

I've been informed that there actually IS a feature to "draw" a strait line, but it's of course already too late sadly. But now i know.

Clunky. That's the best word encapsulating what Crack Down is. With neat ideas, way too ahead of the times sadly. Fuck those moving platforms!
