A very interesting Jetski racer. It has so much style and flare reminiscent of the SSX games. The soundtrack goes for that electronic flare and includes many of its subgenres such as D&B and jungle. My only criticism of this game is that most of the tracks can go on for quite a bit. So you'll be racing for a bit longer than you thought you would. This game definitely wasn't touching its competition Wave Race Blue Storm. Even though WRBS is the better game, JETX20 isn't that bad! It sets itself apart and finds its own vibe and can definitely be enjoyed anytime you're looking for another Jetski racer to play.

VGM CASUAL PC GAME REVIEW

Super Collapse 3 is an interesting game. Coming right off of its brothers Supr Collapse and Super Collapse 2. Super Collapse 3 takes the best of both games and mashes it into a jam-packed 3rd entry full of surprises.

Gameplay

Just like the Aforementioned SC 1 & 2, SC3 is the same as usual you click on blocks that are the same colored and in a group of 3 or more to remove them. To be able to beat levels, you have to keep on going until a specific amount of lines are played or all blocks are gone (in a puzzle). If the rows of blocks hit the ceiling or touch each other (in relapse), or if there are any blocks left (in puzzle), it's game over.

Now super Collapse also has a lot more things too! like power-ups such as Specific colored bombs to blast away that color off the screen giving you more chances to get huge pops, a timer that freezes the screen and stops the blocks from appearing, and much more!

Thanks to the various game modes featured in Super collapse 2, Super collapse 3 mashes this all into a pretty decent quest mode. Each level in an area will be a challenge in each mode such as relapse but this time quicker or color has been added into this level etc. The world of Super Collapse 3 feels very varied and I love the little lore the collapse team gave each area.

The game modes feel varied and the quest mode is great. This gives Super Collapse tons of replayability as you continue to find new ways to clear puzzles and you mash away at the squares in the classic, strategy, and relapse game modes and levels.

My thoughts

Super collapse is definitely worth your time. It's another casual game that you will sink your time in just wasting mashing away at colored squares and having a good time. It's best to see this game as a time killer because that's the best way to describe it. You can play it in small bursts and it'll never get old! The added addition of a quest mode with secrets, casino mini-games, and a shop adds much more to an already simple concept. I feel that was a great idea and move from the devs and adds more to the game

Overall

Super Collapse is a 3.5/5. It's a casual game to get
you by during some moments when you need a quick game to play to pass time or if you genuinely enjoy the collapse series or games like it!

Alright so let's get into another VGM Casual PC game review. This is another replay for me because I mainly grew up on TONS of Casual pc games like this so it's good to return to them.

This right here is Luxor! No not the Las Vegas Hotel or City in Egypt. Luxor is named after that city though. Anyway this is your average run of the mill Tile matching, match 3, puzzle game. Though Luxor is a bit different.

Gameplay

Similar to games like Zuma and Puzz loop, Luxor is all about shooting the colored balls into the same colored ball to destroy them. Upon doing this you shorten that wave of colored balls until you destroy the Scarab pushing the balls. If the Scarab pushes the balls into the Pyramid in the stage it's game over and you have to redo the level. It consists of about 25 levels in 13 stages. The antagonist of the game is Set and the aim of the game is to defeat him.

Now what is fun about Luxor compared to games mentioned and other tile matching games? Well Luxor has a bit of edge to it. The Egyptian themeing really sets it apart from Zuma and the music is pretty intresting too. The energy and feel is much different from the 2 aforementioned titles as well. There is something about Luxor that kinda grabs you in and you get hooked for a few hours into this Ancient Egyptian feel while blasting spheres away. Not only that but it has a ton of variety in power ups too. Again, Luxor is a ton of fun once your locked in blasting away spheres and chaining through each matched sphere. Another nice part about luxor is how rooted in Egyptian Mythology it is. I mean the description of the game says that you're sent out by Isis’ to destroy set. Just a nice touch by the devs to give the game an even more Egyptian feel.

My Thoughts

I feel mostly since this gameplay loop is sorta too much like Zuma and puzzloop that it didn't start to find it's own identity until the second and third entries. This also includes Amun rising. Like of course the themeing and music are unique but the gameplay loop needed a bit more tweaking to make Luxor really shine. But overall this wasn't a bad start to a later experimental series of titles.

Overall

Luxor is a 3/5 nothing too bad and nothing to explode and go crazy about. It's definitely a puzzle game though! It will keep you occupied until you reach the end of its adventure mode and from there you just see what's next for the series in the sequels. Another thing is that the HD release of Luxor is quite intresting. I'll have to talk about it on the games page when I get to it.

Ok, So this strange PC point and click puzzle adventure game doesn't have ANY reviews it's as obscure as it gets. I played this growing up ans have some great memories with this short little game so I'll leave some words here.

Story

While exploring a museum in Egypt, Annabel stumbles upon an ancient curse that claims an innocent victim every ten years, and she may be next. This causes her to be transported back to the past to relive the struggle of an ancient Egyptian princess that fought against all odds to be with the man she loved. You will have to overcome devious puzzles and magical traps set by her enemies just to get to him. In the end you learn how Annabel was possibly the reincarnation of said princesses so it all comes around by the end.

Gameplay

The usual adventure point and click gameplay. Since this is more of a first person 3d title(very similar to games like myst and Snatcher) you move around with the arrows on the screen and observe certain areas to find items and puzzles you may need to solve. Sometimes you may need to talk to certain characters to find the items you need to progress.

Voice Acting

It's alright. I don't have much else to say on this matter It's a low budget casual pc game I wasn't expecting much here☠️. It's monotone but it get's the job done.

My Thoughts

The game isn't bad at all. It's actually a really well made casual game. I don't think I have anything bad to say about it besides the fact that it was really short you can complete it within 2 or 3 hours, But nothing felt off about this game at all. I throughly enjoyed my time with this game when I was younger and I still do now. Even if the plot is a bit silly the game still presents you with some fun challenges and puzzles to get you to the finale of the game which was also pretty exciting as well.

Overall Score

I'd give Annabel a 3.5/5. While it may not be the best of what Casual gaming has to offer, it still presents itself with a worthwhile experience to kill time as you relive the tale of Anaabel and her struggles to be happy with the man she loves.

There are times you want to hate it and times you really start to enjoy it. The game is a technical marvel of its time and definitely meant to be enjoyed by retro lovers alike and anyone wanting to revisit namcos past. Just know it has that classic late '80s arcade game jank. but regardless the action is pretty fun and the game is begging you to master its strange mechanics. Once you master or familiarize yourself with Kagekiyo's movement and understand most of the game's rules you are sure to be in for a good time. Genpei Tōma Den may not be a masterpiece per se but it definitely is a great game to play to kill the time as you travel as Kagekiyo from hell slaying many strong enemies and opponents all the way to Kagekiyos arch-enemy Minamoto no Yoritomo.

This game was boring yet fun if you can make it. I got lucky finding this at a round 1 in my location and safe to say this game isn't really that good. As much as I want to love it, it's just not the Elevator Action we all know.and love. Even with the same idea and flare it's just not good. Honestly they should have made a follow up to returns. As a light gun game it's decent and has a cool gimmick, but as a Elevator Action game it just falls flat. You're better off playing HOTD or Time Crisis for your light gun fix but if you need some type of Lightgun Game to.play just because this might be it.

This was my first FPS ever in my life time when I was a child and I loved it a lot back then. I still do love this game now justbas I did when I was younger. Wolfenstien paved the way for so many more games that came after it but as of today it is a decent game. There is still a lot of fun to be had just the game is a product of it's time and the games that came after it improved upon the foundation that Wolfenstien 3D layed out. I say if you love those old classic DOS shooters go ahead and knock yourself out and enjoy Wolfenstien 3D and kick some Nazi ass but if you're looking for anything else you're better off playing the sequel return to castle wolfenstien.
