Very very cute little hidden object game! No words or text lines are needed, just shapes.
You follow animals in their natural environment, as they show you what they wish for. You then hunt it through few screens and in some cases it was a challenge. ;) To proceed you have to go back to the animal, then you can admire the change in nature. The graphic design is very beautiful!
The game is accompanied with ambient music and sound of the nature, it almost felt like being with them outside. Calming experience.

Another ghost needs your help in uncovering the mystery behind his death. Nothing changes much from the first game, just in hidden object scenes are sometimes used different description for items, some were really clear, other proved to be very challenging. As I am not native English speaker I got often confused, like when searching for "toast". Spent eternity in searching for toast or toaster or something similar and it was a glass! Also I have realized that every time I get stuck in such scene and don't want to use hint because of achievement there is NO guide or walkthrough that would have same items in that scene!!
The story was pretty confusing and most of the time I was lost on what's going on. After completing the game I learned that it was collection of three different stories. At least their description were nicely done.

Secret order of guardians is in danger, when on of his own turn against them. You are playing as a daughter of its leader and you are their only chance! Sounds exciting? Well, the story is little bit silly, but at least it can keep brisk pace. ;)
This is second game in Secret order series and sadly the first one isn't on Steam. Before playing this one I tried to get its prequel. I managed to find only trial version so I only scratched the story, but it's still pretty clear how it will end. ;) Also the first game looks visually rather different, not so typical.

Very nice time management game.
Jill with the help of her friend Mike must work hard to save her grandparents from losing their house to Cliff Gold who will do everything to stop them. Story will guide you through Sunnydale town and its different districts, in each you have to re-cultivate neglected gardens. For that you control many helpers and special workers as policeman, ghost hunter or pest control. For the money you earn you can rebuild your house and there is a lot of upgrades! Great addition are design challenges in each gardening level, you are given hint on how is the garden supposed to look and when you do it right you receive ribbon and more money!
Graphic is very cute and pleasant to look at, also I like the art of the characters in intro parts. Story is predictable, but that's not a problem here. I have still enjoyed how serious the characters were. :) There are in-game achievements, majority of them is opened at the end of game. Few needed some grinding, some huge grinding. I counted that few wouldn't open even if you played the whole game for the second time, such crazy numbers they required. It took my over 6-7 hours (I believe that almost 10, but I lost count after brief coma) to get all of the achievements. After that I wanted to give only 1 star as I was really fed up with it. So, don't hunt for every one of them, they are not on Steam, so why care. :P

Still very nice time management game.
This time you have to help Jill and Mike to win gardening competition. Story is straight continuation of the first game with an addition of new characters, some of them really funny. You are facing some new challenges as for example keeping your workers properly hydrated or safe from scorpions! This time you will visit Chicago, Las Vegas and few other states. There you have to prove your gardening skills and uncover the truth behind mysterious Rose Thief! Could it be Cliff Gold? ;)
Graphic design still the same, still nice. But there is some big change! In the first game when Mike said that he is working, he actually wasn't. It was just generic helper. But now, he has his won little sprite! So you have Jill and Mike running over your map and that made me really happy as it's nice addition! :) Now you don't renovate your house, but instead your headquarters! Some of the things are choosable, so you can make it to your liking. ;) And again in-game achievements, majority of them is opened at the end of game. To my happiness they lowered the crazy numbers from the first game, but they added some new and they are maybe even worse. There is no guide, no discussion, so I don't have any tips on how to do it... I have decided that I will not anger myself with it, but I still have it installed that I will try it again, but I don't want to spent another 10 hours at opening some crazy in-game achievements... gah, again, it's very nice game but not for completing achievements. ;)

Wow, I liked this game! When I started playing I felt like I have seen it somewhere already. After some time in game I have realized that it resembles Layers of Fear to me. And I was right! It was made by the same developers. :D That was a good sign as I have really enjoyed the Layers. ;)
The story is following dark futuristic dystopian world full of drugs, nanotechnology, despair and insanity. You play as detective Dan Lazarski (voiced and modeled by the late Rutger Hauer, he suited our hero very well and added some nostalgic feeling to the game) who is tracking down his long lost son. Once you enter the place where his last signal got detected you are pushed on the edge of your sanity.
The game is taking place in just one apartment complex. Through your interaction with its inhabitants you uncover their secrets, desires and even some disturbing things about yourself. As you go through the building you have to search for clues that would lead to your son, with that helps your enhanced vision system to see biological and technical tracks. Also as an Observer, neural detective, you have power to invade the mind of your suspects... in some cases even of those deceased... and it was a ride, I must say. Almost forgot to mention to watch after your sanity health, as Dan is rather tender kind of man. ;) You can find pills that helps with that all over the building, you just have to look right.
You can go after the main story or you can search around and find some "side quests", I liked that. There is also some stealth action, creepy but doable. ;) When you are hacking into minds the game gets pretty linear, but that's fine, because it serves the story well and most of the time I was like "oh god, what was that... oh my... damn!" anyway. :D In addition there is a cute little mini game that you can find on some computers, Fire and Sword: Spiders. You have to save princess from spiders and each level gets harder, have to say that some of them were real challenge.
Observer offers really disturbing dystopian atmosphere. Through my playtime I had this feeling of anxiety. I think that I was less afraid than when playing Layers of fear (comparing whole playing experiences of both), but I don't think that "fear" was the main purpose of this game... more like the feeling of uncertainty, distress and discomfort. The scary parts worked for me well nevertheless. ;)
I would recommend it to anyone who is fan of sci-fi, dystopian worlds, horror movies, games or books. I think that Observer offer solid experience. But I would certainly NOT RECOMMEND it to anyone who is sensitive to motion sickness or flashing lights, there is a lot of that, sometimes maybe even more than was needed.

Very nice little Otome game. The story, art and characters are enjoyable. Nice addition is that after your first play through you gain access to secret diary which uncover some parts of the story! There are sometimes mistakes in translation, even few complete Russian sentences, but it did not disturbed me much. ;) Would love to pursue one more character though. X)
Some of the achievements are a bit wonky, but they works if the game is switched to Russian and then you just skip through the ending. ;)

Classic point and click adventure game with very nice graphic. Voice acting is decent, at least some of them.
You play as Feodor Morales, young inventor, who wishes to surpass even Leonardo da Vinci! :) Just when you are about to build a flying machine your brother is taken by the Inquisition, so it's up to you to follow his trail through seas and sky and rescue him. On your travel you will start to uncover truth about your origin, which will lead you to mysterious place called Zerzua. But you are not the only one searching for this city, so be prepared for some confrontation!
The game is good... but it didn't really captured me, most of the time I was slightly bored. There were some nice parts I have enjoyed, but I would say that overall it is rather slow paced game. I liked the interaction between Feodor and this pirate girl who wants to use us as slave though. ;) Puzzles were alright, some of them a bit confusing.
When I was playing it I had the feeling of Déjà vu - Zerzua was made by the same studio who made sequels to one of my favorite adventure games, you probably know it as Black Mirror. I don't like its sequels, at all and that's putted really softly. So Zerzua is good, better then Black Mirror 2 and 3, but there is something missing, some emotions... I was rather apathetic to the story and the characters and even wished for some of them to disappear...

Sadly in this one you can't rotate the board as with the second game, I really needed that sometimes. ;)

This game is little gem and don't get yourself fooled by it's main picture. I did and if it wouldn't be for my soulmate I would have ignored it otherwise. By the look of it's representative image you would say that it's one of the many shallow hentai games, but it isn't. I was surprised. The story is very mature and heavy, characters are very much likable, I cared for all of them.
I liked the interaction between the characters, nice addition are hidden talks that you can activate when you see the sign or you will miss them. The game is small, you won't find hundreds pieces of equipment, you don't craft either (but you will cook!), you have just 5 - 6 location to explore and they are short, but it's okay. It's enough for the story. Next to the main quest you can do some side quests too. Few of them are even time limited. You will fight only with demons and they will appear one by one. Every time new one appeared I had to level up as he was rather strong. Fight proved to be a challenge till the end.
I have enjoyed it so much! Would love to see some more games from its creator!

Anyone feel the Rapture inspiration? ;)
Nice HOG with few scary and some silly moments. I liked the domino part, but because of that I had to play it two times to open all of the achievements. :P

Mighty Hercules continues in his story. Still good for killing some free time. ;)

It's a little bit morbid to say so, but I have enjoyed it so much! I have played it after few years I completed the first one and to my surprise I still remembered the important things from it.
The story is miserable as always and few moments took me by surprise when some decision caused something completely else then I anticipated - and don't get me wrong, because that is a good thing! I enjoy very much when game or movie can surprise me! Also I cried few times.
I do really hope that the third one will come back on Steam someday, as I would love to complete Clems story. Will play it whole again then.

You are supposed to investigate strange suicide on an isolated island, but with question asked the case starts to get more and more complicated.
The art is very nice and the talking animations are very well made, they don't look so silly as usually. ;) Your partner is pretty useless really, he sent you somewhere and when you come back to him, he is hysteric where have you been! XD But I liked how you are actually investigating and interrogating your suspects.
And achievement for completing hidden object scene under 20 seconds is crazy, no fun in that. There is no way you can do it in normal play, you have to learn it first and do it after that, silly.

I enjoy trading games!
So in this one, you find yourself stripped of your honor, status, money and have to earn all of it back from scratch. Oh and also avenge death of your father when you are on it. You travel through big cities or small villages and sell your stuff for the most cash you can get. There are many things that can help you to get your wealth back. You can rebuild ruins into working winery, reconstruct old mines so they earn you money on regular basis. First you have to clear those dungeons from monsters, with that may help you mercenaries you can hire, but beware you pay them daily wage. You can also hire specialist and level them up. They are helpful in many ways - they can run your mine or winery, help you with navigation, fight or so. With your wealth growing up you will need bigger wagons to carry more of the merchandise, but be careful the more you have the more you will pay for taxes or won't you? ;)
You have to be careful on your way. You can stumble upon dragon or bear, you can get robbed or some of your stuff can deteriorate. Against that can help artifacts you buy or find all around the world. Also, pay good attention to your luck, as it cause many things that will happen to you and you want good things to happen, right? ;) There is main story to follow and many many side quests for you to complete. Story moves forward only after you rise through society ranks with the help of merchant guild. There are other means to earn cash and you can use every one of them or just some. As you rise up you open new possibilities as traveling with ship to distant islands or with an airship for very quick transportation. Later on you can even forge collaboration with two more merchants and you will take control of them too. That means issuing three orders a day, which can get tiresome at some point when you don't have anything to do with the other one as you can skip movements only once.
Back to dungeons. They are nice addition, but could have been a little more complex. You take band of mercenaries to mine, safely lead them through and then kill the monster. Simple as that. It had a lot of potential, at least there are... ehm, two kind of traps. XD Never mind that, it still was fun. ;) Shame is, that when you clear ruins there is just an automated fight.
I liked the music and art, there are even season changes which looked very nice. Other good function was that you can see the price of your goods up to 7 days back, really better then doing your own database of prices. XD You can save whenever you want so you are pretty well protected from serious losses, if you care about that. ;)
I have enjoyed playing Merchants of Kaidan. There are some parts that could have been more elaborated, but even in this state it is quite enjoyable. :)

In this short HOG you have to uncover the truth behind the death of the famous writer Edgar Allan Poe. The search for clues will lead you through some of his stories. Hidden object scenes were little bit harder than normal, but you have the lamp which gives you the shape of thing you are searching for, so it's okay. ;)

My first ever game on Steam... oh well, dusted and completed.
I like stealth games very much, so Velvet was a truly joy for me to play. I enjoyed different ways and methods you could use through the levels to eliminate your enemies. Apart from normal skills you can use Morphine to slow time and gain some advantage. I have used it only in situations where there was no other way around it though. What bothered me was that I didn't see enemies on the map, you know those red dots to indicate where they are now and so... oh well seems like I am spoiled now. ;) I quickly get accustomed to it, but still found myself checking the map time to time. ;D You don't have classic save, just an automated one, but it saves pretty regularly, mostly when you go through some area. Only level where I got problem with it was in the last one and in the complete end. I did that sequence like 15 times and it was really really frustrating. And here I come to the point which caused the one star loss... the ultimate end is very hard. That wouldn't be a problem, I like challenge, but this was completely insane. Forget stealth and move to head-on action, in just your underwear... yeah, against guys with submachine guns, flamethrowers etc. and you have to survive few waves of them... yeah no. It was very tedious to do it again and again... you know, you are right before the end, the story will close and you are doing the same sequence for almost hour now. I was so out of the story that moment, I just wanted it to end... so when it actually ended I was somehow incomplete. Also I believe that I managed to survive it just thanks to a pure luck and not my skill... Other than that I think that Velvet Assassin aged very well as the graphic looked really beautiful and even the gameplay was smooth without any problems.
The ending isn't very much what you would expect, be warned.

I remember how I played Luxor on my college.... apparently I have forgot how I hated it. XD The first levels are easy and great, you feel awesome for being able to complete the stage without losing any of your lives, but then it gets more serious and very hard. Graphics are nice, I even enjoyed the music, but I like simple Match-3 games more. Glad that it's behind me, but still have one more to do. ;)

I enjoyed this casual and relaxing Match-3 game. The music was very good too. I liked the principle of rotating the game board, it added new touch to it. ;)

This game really surprised me! There was a lot of action which you don't really anticipate in hidden object games, it felt more like some adventure game. Also lot of puzzles and mini-games through the game, even the hidden object ones were done slightly differently than I am accustomed. Voice acting was very good and story was rather interesting. You play as supernatural detective Adam Wolfe who is searching for his lost sister. In the meantime you solve cases which are nicely connected to each other and slowly uncover the truth behind his sister disappearance. The game is divided into chapters, each one is set on different case. They are really well done and I wanted to know more - what is happening, who is behind it and so on!
Shame is, that the ending is clearly leading to a sequel, but it doesn't seem like it will ever get done. It would be nice to continue in the story, but other than that it's very good game, one of the best HOGs I played, can only recommend. :)

Mission completed, all friends saved. :)
More to read in my July post, nothing changed from then. ;)

So it's done. Earth was saved, all villians got captured, all heroes were collected and everything in our way was SMASHED!!! Right Hulk? ;)
Great experience! Best in coop. Now we are sad that it ended, so I urgently need the second game. ;D Luckily I have few other Lego games in my library. :)

Simple Match-3 game, where you follow young Ricky and his grandpa on an adventure in Egypt (who would have guessed? XD). There are six different kinds of matching, some of them were really challenging. Graphic design is pleasant, music too - reminded me very much of Pharaon, damn it, I want to play it now...

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 Beatrice 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. ;)
