Gotta Crochet 'Em All!
The Inner World
Challenge me! Although I like point & click games more if they're full of black humor, The Inner World was still really cute and enjoyable. It was rather short but I love that there weren't many rooms per chapter so you won't have to travel back and forth too often for solving riddles and collecting items. Because I truely hate if there is too much <_< It makes stuff more complicated than it has to be. The Inner World is quite simple and that might be the reason I finished the first half so fast. Then a bug occured. It was the third chapter I guess (so almost the end) and the game doubled an item, causing that Robert couldn't leave the room anymore and I was stuck. I was so upset about that and didn't want to play the whole game from start again so I quit for over a month! Gladly I searched for a solution some days ago and found save files so I only had to replay chapter 3 again and finally found my motivation again to finish it :3 The Inner World hasn't the blackest humor but Robert's stupidity and simpleness was still something that caught me. It also made the solutions to riddles more funny because as in almost every p&c game no one would actually do something like that but it just fits to his character. He does... something. And somehow it works. Even solutions which doesn't make any sense were reasonable that way and I really liked that. The story was interesting too, I only wish that there was a bit more to character development.
Braveland
Well. Braveland is kind of Heroes of Might and Magic with it's battle system and without everything else. You walk to one battle to another, gather gold after each win (or even lose) and buy more troops for fighting. Repeat. And your troups won't ever die completely as the game resurrects them automatically after every fight (on normal at least, I don't know if it's the same on hard). This sounds incredibly boring and in the first minutes I thought that I won't like to play a game basing only on combat which also is that easy that there is little to no strategy in it. But it was surprisingly quite fun and also rather short so there wasn't even time to get bored :b I sure won't buy it's sequels. But for a around 3-hours game it was decent and at least another kill of my backlog \o/
Killer is Dead
I have... no idea what to say about this. Everything I liked about this game was also something I didn't like. For example it's art style I think is really cool but at some scenes I thought they were too dark to look good anymore. I liked the mystery about the story while at the same time I hate that it was so complicated. Maybe that's why I restarted this game three goddamn times and always stopped in the middle only to restart it some years later. Now I can finally say I BEAT THIS SHIT!
Mini Ninjas
Challenge Me! Do you have some games you just... don't play? Without knowing why because they're actually great? I don't know why I had such problems with Mini Ninjas. I already didn't want to play this game before I started it. Then it was picked for me and I was so deeply in love with this, I didn't want to quit anymore. It's cute, it's fun, it has a lot of exploring, skills and switchable characters, ... But as soon as I quitted I lost all my motivation for it again and had to actually force myself to play it and instantly fell in love with it's style again. Something has to be wrong with me... Big thanks for picking! Without the challenge I don't think I would've even bothered to try it out and what would I have missed!
Hentai Memory
I... don't have to say something about those right?

Yay I’m glad you liked those two games I picked for you. :D I totally get your feeling about Mini Ninja! It often happens to me that I just lose motivation to play a game and then just leave them there. :< In fact it’s happening to me now that I look at all the games I have installed and there’s just not a single one that I want to play. ;-;
Aw yes, I know this too well v.v If it happens I drown myself in endless games like Sims until I realise that it won’t get me anywhere :,D Just like having a wardrobe full of clothes and nothing to wear…
