Party Hard

7/10

Steamgift win. An interesting, little stealth game. You are a killer, you need to kill everyone on the party, without getting caught. You can use environment traps (like breaking a stove, turning it into time bomb), or straight kill with a knife. There are also some toys, like smoke bombs, or pizza (to gather some people in one place). The story includes around ten levels - beach parties, pool parties, camp parties… it was nice variety. My biggest problem was, that there were too few options to have fun with the gameplay - you can only have one, sometimes two gadgets per level (randomly generated), and you cannot influence your victims, so basically every level was played in the same way - turn on every trap and then wait until one guy walk somewhere where he is alone, and kill. Repeat 20 times. I had fun, but it could be a bit more.

Endless Fables 3: Dark Moor

7/10

ABC challenge. Good, standard HOPA. Ridiculus as always, with OK riddles, following standard plot “Your [put a family member here] was kidnapped by [put a scary creature here], and only you can help, by using [put an ancient, magical McGuffin here]”. This one was really trying to be scary without being too scary, so there was a few stupid looking jumpscares. but overall I had fun.

Wow, what a nice, solid game. It’s FPS metroidvania, with a lot of mechanics, used to solve riddles. There is A TONE of very creative puzzles here, most of them optional. I ended the game finishing only half of them. Those puzzles are incredibly imaginative, and very satysfying to solve. I could easily give it 9/10, but unfortunately you also need to fight here, and fighting is just irritating. I understand why it’s here - most of the rewards for puzzles are little weapon upgrades, but to be honest I would prefer to just win collectables and focus on solving puzzles.
