I'll probably finish this game in a few months for a simple reason: it gets "old" pretty quick. Don't get me wrong: every run is a nightmare, a fever dream that you want to explore until you saw everything, got spooked by every monster and laughed at the strangeness.

The only thing is that every single strange thing becomes normal in a few hours of gameplay, in 8-9 hours there is no freshness to it. The experience is still really fun, though, so I'm sure I'll get to the end of it someday.

Everyone should play this game. Period.

In Yakuza 4 you can see the massive improvement from 3: the story isn't sublime and definitely not my overall favourite of the Yakuza series, but it's still pretty good. Loved the characters and how their fate brings them together. Like Yakuza 3, I really can't love the combat system: even on normal mode it's so frustrating to fight mini-bosses and bosses, especially on the very last one. RGG did a nice job, but it is far from excellent.

This is the perfect evolution of Red Matter: more complex puzzles, better graphics, longer, the story is still really well done. Kudos to the devs!

Relaxing game, nice idea, yet maybe it was too slow and characters were not that interesting. Enjoyable, I guess, but I wish it had something more.

Mullins strikes again.
Play Inscryption blind, but only after Pony Island and The Hex. Thank me later.

This was one of the best multiplayer games around for its time: free to play, so much fun with custom maps and community has been alive from 2003 since 2019. Sadly now you can hardly find servers full of people, but in the golden age...I wish it lasted longer.

EDIT: Steam saved it. It will last longer.

The Mario influence is clear and someone might find it too blatant, but this is still a really nice game with a lovely level design and soundtrack. The story is simple, you can just enjoy the gameplay and vibe.

This is just insane. At first I felt like this was just a "vaporwave" game that tried to recreate the 90s and the early days of Internet and PCs in a different way. Then, it became clear that this game was so much more. I really loved it.

Devolver strikes again. Card Shark has an interesting story (that could end in a better way, in my opinion) and unique minigames. Definitely one of the highlights of 2022 already for the gaming industry.

Could've been better, but still enjoyable

Slow-paced, maybe too much. Story is fine, love the artwork, yet didn't really make me feel satisfied with the gameplay.
