#Few more games down… (…And a lot of new games)

LIMBO

4.2 hours of playtime, 5 of 13 achievements

I’ve actually bought this game twice, and despite that never finished it before. Why? I don’t know, really, distracted easily I suppose.
Anyways, you’re a young guy that is apparently looking for his sister (According to the description). You’re in this really eerie, dark, world where everything is black and white… …And wants to kill you.

I liked this game, the music and puzzles are pretty good, though hard and punishing at times.

Mini Metro

10.9 hours of playtime, 21 of 42 achievements

I’ve had my eye on this game for a couple of yeas now, but never bought it because I didn’t want to gamble to see if I’d like it or not. So, when this game appeared in a recent humble bundle, I bought the bundle for this game.

No regrets, whatsoever :). It’s surprisingly relaxing to just go with the flow and connect metrostations, lines… The background music gradually builds up during your play and it just brought me in the zone. The hours flew by before I knew it.

Orwell: Ignorance is Strength

6.7 hours of playtime, 11 of 19 achievements

I really loved Orwell. So, when the sequel came out it was an instant buy for me.
This time, you’re investigating a different target (And therefore a group of people), parallel to the events happening in the first Orwell game. You can link the save file, and it’s interesting to see how some events influence your current objective.

Unfortunately, I can’t go into the story due to possible spoilers, but I think if you liked the concept of the first game, you’ll like this one, too.

Koi-Koi Japan [Hanafuda playing cards]

6.3 hours of playtime, 24 of 35 achievements

A popular Japanese cardgame. Never heard of it before, but it was fun to learn to play with a different kind of cards/rules.

SENRAN KAGURA Bon Appetit!

3.8 hours of playtime, 10 of 43 achievements

The concept has a small WTF?!, but it’s just so much fun! (And no, not because of the naked girls)
Ever since I’m a kid, I just enjoy rhytm games.

In this game, all the Senran Kagura girls compete in a cooking tournament in order to win a ninja scroll that can grant any wish.
Everyone has their own motivation to enter, so you get to play through a lot of different stories.

The music is quite nice, and did I mention it’s a lot of fun?

Good batch of games, there. When I finally got around to playing Mini Metro I got hooked as well. I consider it to be one of the better puzzle games I’ve ever played. Every now and then I’ll start it up to try one of the harder achievement challenges. It’s so relaxing, yet demands a lot of concentration as the traffic level rises.

And if you liked LIMBO, you should really treat yourself to INSIDE. Same studio, but twice the weirdness and a better, more intense experience. :)
