Journey of a Roach
6/10
Small adventure game about postapo cockroaches, and other bugs. It was allright, fun, but not particulary memorable. Gameplay is classic advnture game, the only original thing is the fact, that your character can walk on walls and ceiling. All in all nothing special but it is often so dirty cheap, that it is worth a try, if you like advnture games.

The Last Campfire
8/10
A puzzle game made by guy from No Man’s Sky. Well - it is definietely nothing like No Man’s Sky :) . You are a little creature, which look’s like it drop from Fall Guys. You got into a strange land, which I think is some kind of Purgatory. You need to go out, and to do this you need to help other creatures, which lost their hope and turned to stone. The riddles are mostly on the easy side (there were two or three tricky ones, but most of them I finished with ease). Normally you need to make a path for yourself from point A to point B, by moving blocks, pushing buttons, classic puzzle stuff. It is very charming and relaxing, and I had very good time.

Blue Fire
7/10
A 3D platformer with fighting and metroidvania elements. It reminded me quite heavily of 3D version of Hollow Knight, just not as polished. There is also something from Dark Souls here but I cannot put my finger on what - maybe it’s just atmosphere of huge, empty, depressing castle. It was good, but it has some problems - the biggest one is lack of any map, so you better remember what is where. It’s not so hard, cause the map isn’t very big, but I’m not recomending it if you know, that you won’t be able to finish it without longer pauses - if you forgot, what to do, you will need to walk blindly until you figure out, wherre to go next.

Demon Hunter 5: Ascendance
6/10
Dreamwalker: Never Fall Asleep
6/10
Two HOPA’s, similar to every other HOPA from this producer. I was enjoying both, but DreamWalker is feeling like an early HOPA, the hidden object parts are not particulary good, and it is trying to make twist which have little sense, while Demon Hunter is suffering from quite bad voiceacting, and some lines are cut wrongly, so you are missing half of the last word.

Update 96: October 1st to 17th
Where has the time gone. How is it already nearly the end of 2021 D:
Well October started kinda so-so. Added a few more games to my backlog, but then I am nearly finished with Mass Effect Legendary Edition.
Liked the game after I got used to the controlls. Unfortunately you cannot change the key bindings and it is rather short game, but looks rather good for a one man project.
Quiet enjoyed this game. Though using voice commands was something I had to get used to at first and they do not always work, which can be frustrating at times.
Very short HOG. Took me ages to find that last mushroom.
Very short HOG. Loved every minute of it though. This one has some little puzzles in it to get all the eternals.
Overall Backlog Progress:-0,15% change to last times unfinished/never played games (67% unfinished games)
Overall SG Wins Progress:+0,23% change to last times unfinished/never played games (44,5% unfinished games)

SIMULACRA 2
Played on SteamMeh… not a game I'd think about or play again. Problems running it on Windows 10 (probably because of the old Unity version it uses, if you want to give it a go dont launch from steam, instead go to install folder and launch the exe from there, also set compatibility to Windows 7 and disable fullscreen optimizations), not that long or interesting story at least for me.
Labyrinthine Dreams
https://www.backlog-assassins.net/posts/9bjn6zl
A nice little puzzle game. Kinda sad, kinda sweet
Paranormal Stories
https://www.backlog-assassins.net/posts/v7xzggl
Story was decent but having a timer and needing stars to progress gets annoying and repetitive
Shrinking Pains
https://www.backlog-assassins.net/posts/wbrk957
Serious game about anorexia, maybe decent but I can't say.
The Men of Yoshiwara Series
2 games
https://www.backlog-assassins.net/posts/27gykx7
Both games has a girl who goes to the pleasure district.
Yoshiwara is a poor girl who falls for the men
Ohgiya is a rich girl who is sent to get pregnant - I much prefer this one
The Night Fisherman Series
2 games
https://www.backlog-assassins.net/posts/mlygrwl
Series games about a fugitive boy
Nightfisher is about a man in a boat who tries to bring him to safety but gets caught
Outcast is about a couple who take in the boy after they accidently hit him, where you can decide to save him or send him away
The Sad Story of Emmeline Burns
https://www.backlog-assassins.net/posts/al342j7
A short yuri about the death of Emmeline, definitely worth getting as its free
I got a decent amount of games done this week. I also made some progress on my multiple game reports so its not just this. I am excited this week for the release of another corpse party game. I also noticed today they brought out badges for Quantic Dream games. Detroit, beyond 2 souls and heavy rain got them badges but I am very disappointed. Heavy rain is the only one I like so I went from yay they got badges to oh no they suck in a matter of a minute
Seond week of October
So I went from 7 games done in a week to 1 17 minute long game in a week. God I love life…
Completed games
Achievements: 100 of 100 (100%)
Review: This is one probably somewhere in the middle of the 100 Hidden games as to how much I enjoyed it. It is still good and I like the art style, I just enjoyed others more. Works fine with Proton.
Log #3
My library grew by 11 games since my last report, but I still managed a gain of two percent on the completed section, whoop!
Assassinations of the past weeks:
-
The Uncertain: Last Quiet Day
-
Glass Masquerade
-
Life is Strange: Before the Storm
-
Summer in Mara
I really enjoyed Glass Masquerade and kept thinking that my Mom would as well, so I might get it for her :) Summer in Mara was cool, too, even though it was more of “Go there, fetch this” than a farming sim.
Work in progress:
-
Assassin's Creed
22.8 hours playtime

Queen Ninglor
This one took quite a while to complete, still a game worth playing… 10/10 for an assassin's creed game! The game is beautiful if you can run it on Ultra, music is great, story is interesting, some DLC quests are hilarious. Yes there are fetch quests, but it somehow doesn't feel repetitive, most quests are well made and interesting. The only part I didn't like was the first part of The Fate of Atlantis DLC, that was boring.
