Update 103: February 2022

Added as many new games as I’ve beaten, my backlog is sighing in relieve.

Half-Life 2

Wheels of Aurelia

Was fun for a bit, but got repetative quickly. You basically drive around while a story is being told, depending on who you pick up or which turns you take the story developes.

Swordbreaker The Game

Was fun, though completing it was tedious because you needed to find every last slide.

Half-Life 2

Vane

I hoped I could get into this game, but it was just not my cup of tea. The area is far too large, I just ran around/flown around for hours without a clear goal and not even very fast. In addition to that there were several areas which were rather buggy with me falling through floors which made me restart from the checkpoints several times.

Half-Life 2

Not For Broadcast

Liked the game. Sadly I had several problems with the game crashing on me and me loosing progress. Other than that the story was kinda out there sometimes. You are working as a broadcaster for a TV News show. You have to decide what to show and what not, which comment to censor and which not. While doing so you have to deal with several difficulties, be it electrical charges that zap you or little killer robot dolls, that turn off your stuff or a heat wave that makes your equipment overheat.

Half-Life 2

Frog Detective 2: The Case of the Invisible Wizard

5/10
2.6 hours
6 of 6 achievements

A short, child-focused game. A bit better than the first. Dialogue was flowing better. But nothing to write home about.

Half-Life 2

Spin Rush

6/10
2.5 hours
11 of 15 achievements

You spin your square of different colors to make your color ball hit the right colored square to get points. Several different modes and different base forms. If you are good grind on hexagon if not words is probably the best.

Half-Life 2

It works, you can drive around. But that's about it. Multiplayer is not working or I am too stupid for it. Had to kill the game via taskmanager.

Half-Life 2

MineSweep

Basic minesweeper game. Works like it should.

Here are the games I'm currently working on. Reviews will follow once I'm done with the games:
I've won 9 games and 3 DLC's for Sid Meier's Civilization® VI . And I've beaten 9 games, so that makes a total of 0 for for the month of February. My backlog is giving off a relieved sigh.
