Rather dramatic hidden object game. XD The story would be interesting if it wasn't somewhat predictible. Also it gets pushed to ridiculous moments. Voice acting is terrible. XD But I must agree with some reviews, that it felt like watching B rated movie, it's horrible but you enjoy it. ;) At least I had good laugh. :)

I got chapter Three from Monthly and after few days I have won chapter One and Two on SG! Lucky me. :)
Short adventure game about two friends Bwana and Kito who are "forced" to help young lady Lina in her search for mythical Underland. Principles of the game are pretty same as you would expect from any point and click adventure. What makes this game really good are the characters, graphic and music design, setting of the world. It's really silly, but so nice and it will make you laugh. Also, after the end you can see the birth of the game and that was very nostalgic. I have enjoyed it very much!

Cute little puzzle / platformer game, where you have to change the shapes of your plastiballs to save as many as you can!
Some of the stages were really challenging. Also the controls were somewhat clunky, but you are able to pause the game and give precise orders so that have compensated it! It reminded me so much of old Lemmings! :3

Nice hidden object game, with little twist in the end, where you have two different endings! To see the other one you have to play it again though or watch some video walkthrough. :P

For completing it I needed two more playthroughts as I missed the illusions - that was really a pain in the ... back. I liked how the game was interactive. The voice acting could have been better, but there are also worse so I think it's allright. Some animations were pretty silly, running Betrice gave me a chuckle even for the third playthrough. :)

On this one I liked the detective work when searching for clues, nice addition!

This was my first game I played from Daedalic many years ago. I cherish it very much.
We follow little sad clown Sadwick on his adventure to destroy the world... or was it to save it? On his travel he is accompanied by his faithfull friend Spot the caterpillar! And he is not just a stand by companion, he will be helpfull in many ways and shapes. Also he is unbearably cute! :3
I remember that the story had a huge impact on me the first time, but it still have the power even when I know how it will end. The game was a little bit buggy for me, especially the cutscenes - sound was quicker and ended before the video. Also during the Spring cleaning event I have decided to complete my achievements, but when I loaded up it was totally broken. I had different layers accross themselves so it created big fuzz. I am not sure what caused that, as I had not any problems before with it.
Even though there are some mistakes and bugs, it's still very beautiful game and I would recommend it anytime.

Beautiful game! So calm and relaxing, I could do this all day!
During Summer sale I have bought all DLCs so I can play some more! I take it as completed as no new achievements were added, but my playtime will grow some more. I suppose that I will buy the second one during the Winter sale. ;)

The story and adventure of Bwana and his friends continues in new surroundings and with a cast of new characters. I would say that I have liked Second chapter maybe even more as the Noir setting was really great with very good soundtrack supporting the story!

Hidden object game which is not per se hidden object game. XD The game is composed of different puzzles - jigsaw, pexeso, picture made of slides and then there is large pile of things in which you search for the two or three same. Except for jigsaw and sliding picture the difficulty is getting higher - you still have to find the same things but some time those thing are constantly moving and changing their position or you search one in normal color and the other in grey. Even though the puzzles were changing each time it get repetitive as you are looking at the same things all the time. The biggest problem of the game is the length (they promote 12 hours - nope!), because you have to get through 91 levels!!! I think that 50 would be more than enough. XD
The story is simple, but nicely told through pictures and is quickly progressing. The end is, well, there is space for some sequel. XD
Some users report it being broken for they are not able to move things and then progress, I played it on win10 and didn't have any problems, so they have maybe repaired it? o.O

The story of Samantha continues. Same graphic, characters and principles. I think that I have made fewer misclicks than in the first game, maybe I got better. ;)
There is apparently some compatibility issue with win10 as I had some problem starting it. For me to play the game I had to download working exe - I was really hesitant to do it, but my antivirus said it was okay (many many times) so I risked it. Other than that it's nice casual game and again: I like my museum. ;)
One more thing - as I have noticed there are probably more games about Samantha, but only two are on Steam. Shame, would be nice to see all of it (especially as she is uncovering some hidden truth about her father o.O).

Okay, this was... strange. Narrative adventure game where you play as a fresh FBI agent on her first task. You follow the story without any words. The graphic design has an artistic impression and suits the game rather well, also music is very good (recorded live by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra!). Some things in the story are pretty clear, some are less clear and then there is symbolism which can shuffle it all up. At the end I wasn't really sure what had happened. The second play-through was better as you already new the whole story and you had time to focus on the little things around. Also, reading discussion with an explanation of the story just proved what I have thought. So if you like mystery, detective stories / movies, I believe you will have no problem with orienting in the story.
I had to play it three times, as I have missed some collectibles for an achievement and even though you can choose chapter to play, you don't have the items you have collected beforehand.

Very nice adventure about famous dancer and very likely a spy Mata Hari. At the beginning she wishes to get a patron for her dancing career, but she also get captured into web of spies from which she can't never leave. Remaining story follows her life in the background of forthcoming World War.

Through the game you will notice few references on the historical situations, which was very nice! In addition to standard adventure "point and click" mechanics there are some mini-games. Traveling via railway - as a spy you need to avoid enemy spies so you have to choose your way carefully, also you have an option to skip this completely, but you won't get any points to improve your spying skill. Dancing - first you need to find an inspiration for a new dance, only then you can perform - when Mata Hari starts her dance, you will see four circles and flying notes, you need to catch them in the middle to get best score, if they get outside you get minus points, you have limit which you need to achieve otherwise you fail, according to your skill you get the money. In some cases the notes were flying really fast and it was hard to catch them properly with a mouse, would be better if it was suited for a keyboard, but still with some practice it was doable (I think you can skip it, but I am not sure as I have not used it). I got the best score with just few of them and still was able to manage the highest possible cash. When you have found all of the inspiration, you can choose whatever dance you want and make your fortune on the easiest = slowest one. ;) Not really a mini-game, but you have at your disposal the art of seduction. You have to choose the right seduction on the right type of man. Well, I have always succeeded on my second try, that probably mean that I wouldn't be a good spy. X) Beside the clues and info you need for the main story you can find some other information that can uncover more secrets. These are optional, but completing them will improve your spying skill greatly.

I have enjoyed playing Mata Hari, it reminded me of old adventure games. It has such nostalgic touch to it.

It's still as good as I remember it. I really like this game! I have enjoyed playing it again so much!
My first time playing Fahrenheit was many years ago and I was very much captivated by it. I liked the story, characters, design, concept, motion capture. The game mechanics and dynamics was something completely new to me. I remember that it was really hard and I had problems with concentrating on more aspects of the game simultaneously, I was able to follow colors I had to push but not what was happening on the screen. XD This wasn't a problem anymore and I have enjoyed the story properly even when mashing the buttons. ;D

Story in Fahrenheit is told through different eyes and that's amazing! I love how you play as a man on the run from the law, but in the same time you play as detectives hunting him! This adds little twist to standard preferences to whom you actually like and support. Another great aspect of the game are action sequences where you have to dodge flying furniture, large green bugs, cars and so on or you dance, fight in the ring, play basketball or just take deep breaths in dark archives, there is really a lot to do. Some of those encounters can cost you your life other just boost your morale if you do them successfully, if not you let your characters drown in their misery and depression. That's another great element of the game!
The story will uncover some events that happened in the past and you will relive them. For both of those parts sneaking is mandatory, I made the first one without any problem, when the second one proved to be somewhat frustrating as I had encountered a game breaking bug. Luckily it was solved with help of discussion forum.
Fahrenheit is full of mysticism and supernatural powers, which are most revealed during fights. I have noticed that a lot of people don't like those sequences later in the game. Well, I have enjoyed them. X) They really reminds me of Matrix movies (especially the later ones). ;)

This is one of the best adventure games of all time! If it's your first time seeing it, go and get it now! ;)

You play as a young member of Weavers guild, Bobbin, who is pulled into events far beyond his imagination. It's up to you to help him on his way to finding his guild members and maybe even more than that. On your journey you met with some of the world inhabitants - members of Blacksmiths, Shepherds, Clerics or Glassmakers guild. You will uncover their secrets and with it even something more than you would anticipated.
In this game you don't have any inventory. Instead you have Distaff (weaving staff) with musical scales, which help you to weave songs and change things around you. It's something like magic, just play some of notes you learn through your story and see what will happen. You can try them on any interactive thing you come across, also you can undo those spell... find the way yourself. ;) It's important to make notes of the notes as they change with every game (few of them are actually same, but there is a lot of them so it's better to have them written).

There are few versions of the game as I understand it. On Steam and even on GoG you have this remastered version with smoothed graphic and music. In this version the characters are dubbed. So... as I said, this game is perfect, but do not play this version and if you do, find the old Dosbox version (EGA version) too. There are many differences that hurt the story and characters very much - in my opinion.
First the graphic. The smoothed graphic is pleasant to look, but is somewhat boring. The "true" Loom had many colors and they were very expressive, I like it that way more.
Second the music. Track is made from ballet Swan Lake by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and it's beautiful in its very existence. And again I had to say that the old version sounds much more better and corresponds with story more nicely. The remaster often cuts off the sound too soon and you don't have a chance to enjoy it.
Third the story. Story is pretty much the same and yet very different. When some characters talks there is often a closeup upon their faces - these are not in the remastered version!! So you have some parts of the story stolen from you as those conversations are not included! Instead you are watching characters stomping from one side of the screen to the other. The reason for this was apparently, that the dubbing wouldn't match the lip sync. Well, those closeups were not moving their lips so I think that it was really unnecessary. Other then that many sentences are different and they give different meaning to them. Also, the dubbing is not very good. It's very hastened and often ends before the sentence is complete. (Interesting thing: You will find only one closeup in the remaster and it's even in the place where in the original is not!) These conversations that you miss are very important for the whole story and your understanding of characters, without it everything is empty. Also, I take Bobbin as a young boy who is left in the dark and knows nothing, but in the remaster I saw him as an arrogant guy, which is really sad.
Another difference is that when playing in the "original" Loom at expert level (you are left just with your Distaff, but you don't see the notes when they are played) there are some added scenes as reward. Those scenes you see right away on remaster, even when playing at lowest setting. That's rather surprising, because I had the impression that this version is censured. And then there is no need to play it on expert other than you want to surpass yourself.

Loom is amazing game which deserves a proper sequel. But believe me that the old version will offer you much better experience. Below you can see screenshots from both versions, I think you will recognize them. ;)

Walking simulator with horror feeling to it. You just need to collect journals to uncover the story which is inspired by true events, but spiced up with supernatural. You have map, compass and flashligt; with just that you find yourself surrounded by snow in inhospitable mountains. You are endangered by your wrong steps, orange mist and some powerful entity. That's all, no frozing to death, dying from hunger or being eaten by wolf. All you need to do is watch your step and run away when needed, oh but you can't run for too long in deep snow or you will get tired. And that entity, well, let's just say that it can be pretty retarded. XD
I believe that Kholat is a good game. Great visuals and music is developing the atmosphere nicely, as is reading through journal pages and notes. Do not forget our main voice actor Sean Bean! To progress the story you need main journal pages (others are optional) and at each of their location something special happens, it's very cool and with eerie touch!! Even with all this the game feels... I don't know, somehow empty? The true ending is so weird and left more questions than the normal one. Game offers no replayability - just when you need all of the achievements. I have enjoyed it, but I have also quickly let it out of my mind.

Probably my first "walking simulator" I have played. And I liked it. The game has great visulas and is working flawlessly. The premise is very interesting, and it's a bit of shame that the ending is somewhat a cliffhanger. I would love to know more!
Most players seems like hating the "cat" part. Well, for me it was fun. I see why they don't like it, but I can understand why it was created so too. And you know, me cat-lover, I can't hate cute little kitten! <3
Oh, and I must mention great Androids, they were well written and I have enjoyed their different personalities and attitudes.

Nice little survival game about being Lost in Woods (probably for second time)! You need to survive until you find the exit from the woods. You have to harvest food to eat properly, also don't forget to drink or sleep regularly. As you gather more resources you can build new things which helps in your survival and in fighting mighty bosses. In addition you can choose if you got lost during summer or winter. ;)
Overall I have enjoyed my time in Woods.

This was amazing. It has everything - interesting story, great characters, deep atmosphere, beautiful visuals and soundtrack!
The game is based upon equally named book by Ken Follet. I have to humbly admit that I have not read it - yet! But years back I have given the book to my mom as a Christmas gift and if I remember correctly, she enjoyed it. ;) So I have borrowed it from her and now it sits in my living room, and as it has almost 1000 pages it will take me some time to finish it!
So back to the game. It's a point and click adventure heavily concentrated on storytelling. You can pick up items and use them, there is also one kind of little mini-game, but the main point of this adventure are choices. You follow four (respectively three) main characters through the story full of regret, betrayal, faith, hope and of course love. As them you have to live, survive and make hard decisions which will shape not just your fate, but even of those around you. All is happening in the shadow of one particular cathedral.

The game is divided to three Books which are then set to 7 chapters each. At chapter's end you are "rewarded" with screen summarizing the most important events and your decisions. Even though the end of the game is practically set and there are things that you can't change no matter what, you have some space for different approach. In some cases you can even die. The good thing is that the decision leading to such end is imminent; I believe it's good because you don't have to overplay ten hours to change it!
I have found the characters very believable and well written, I have come to like them almost immediately! Largely due to the great voice acting; the actors perfectly corresponded with their characters! One of the best video game dubbing for me.
There are some minor bugs - not sure if it's the right word, few times happened that someone talks and his mouth is shut or someone is quiet and his mouth is moving. But it didn't bothered me much. ;)

Pillars have stolen my heart as tsupertsundere mentioned. ;) The story captured me and my emotions changed rapidly as it proceeded, I will be strong and admit that even some tears were shed. :P

Nice short adventure about simple life of a simple janitor named Joe. The graphic design is very good and fitting. Also as someone who loves Twelve Monkeys I can't say anything bad on it.
Well... two times I got stuck and all that Joe suggested was that he doesn't know how that thing should help him... well me neither Joe, me neither. XD After rage clicking and using everything on anything I found my way. :P

This was rather nice HoG. It had some funny moments and was very quick too. I found the mini-games reasonable and easily doable.

Some of the items were really very well hidden, almost blended with the environment. For that situation was good the sonar thing which showed you shape of the item, I have not used it to pinpoint the exact location of the item. Some of the items were hard to pick up as they needed certain location to click, so there were many misclicks. The graphic and story is little bit weaker, but I have enjoyed it nevertheless. I liked my museum. :)

Funny casual game. Mighty Hercules was really hilarious! :D Good for killing time.

Rather silly matching game, but I have enjoyed the music and overall design. To the end it started to be really hard, but luckily I done all field on my first try. Also, after buying everything for the farm I would have lost motivation for completing it, as there was nothing new to open, but as it was part of SG challenge I have done it!

If I would grade this game by it's visual it wouldn't be bad. Also the music was pleasant and some of the puzzles were really good and even hard. But the story, the characters... oh my, that was completely wrong! Just hilarious, I wondered if I should cry or laugh. I ended up laughing. ;)
