Story: No story. Game goal is to climb the tower and kill last boss. No dialogues, diaries etc that could tell some story.

Gameplay: We can chose from few character classes, they behave in different ways, so it does not feel like we only changed how our character looks like. After death gold and ore, that was sent back home, is available to buy permanent upgrades for the city and character. Items are lost. Which is a good balance. We can upgrade our hero, and do not need to start from scratch every single time. I hate this mechanic in full rogue games. Game has isometric view. Works well with gamepad. I played it in co-op and did not see any bugs or bad game mechanics related to it. Gold , exp and loot is individual, so no need to fight for it.

Graphic, music, bugs: Pixel graphis :sob:. Music is bit repetitive, although fits into different floor themes - library, ice land, basement etc. There are no major or minor bugs visible.

Story: No story, as it's boardgame.

Gameplay: Conversion was done properly, and there are no irritting gameplay flaws or problems with the connection. If you like the boardgame, and are fine with playing only one map (or find DLC maps cheaply) this game will be a good pick.

Graphic, music, bugs: Game is bugless, music is limited to sounds of card shuffling and train riding, graphic is of good quality.

Story: No story, as it's a boardgame.

Gameplay: It's clunky. When you click on the button to bring up the ability-action menu, and decide to pick charge-ability-action instead it's not possible to click out anywhere outside of the active window to cancel it. You must click again on ability-action button. Same goes for cancelling all others actions...
You have the card that gives bonus when using magic spell? Game will pop up info you have this card every single time you use it. Even when you're well aware of this fact... When you throw the dices, and have not enough to defeat the enemy (for example 1 out of 4 shields) - you still must put this one shield at the enemy position. Game will not auto-fill dices...
Out of 4 playable characters Triss is obviously superior. Geralt may have a lot of dices to throw, but do not have any magic actions. Dandeleon focus on getting buffs from other players, so unless you play in 4 he's useless. While Triss can both teleport around like crazy, and have spell that gives both 2 shields and 2 swords. Which is enough to beat up pretty much all enemies.

Graphic, music, bugs: Random bugs that do not allow players to perform actions. Inability to re-connect after connection is lost. Graphic is fine, same for the music. I wanted to leave this game with 3 stars, but inability to re-connect to ongoing game is so ridiculous I'm not able to.

Story: We're sent to world where dragons live, to trade our PDAs for their generators in order to save humanity. Similar to Hatoful Boyfriend things are not as easy as they seem to be, and there is hidden ending. But in overall story is worse and more predictable than in HB. And playing through romances of all characters, in order to unlock true ending, was not really satisfying. There is no thrive that we learn something new about characters around us in every gameplay repeat.

Gameplay: It's visual novel with decisions and save system. Skipping already seen cut-scenes and dialogues works fine. Not much more to write here.

Graphic, music, bugs: Game is bugless, characters models and backgrounds are of high quality. Only problem is that characters do not have many poses, so they repeat really often. Music is more like ambient thing, nothing extraordinary

Story: "We must bust out of prison" game. One character is already inside, and wants to run away. Second character only arrived, but is sure they did not commit crime they were sentenced for. Which feels like typical scenario of all prison-action movies. They have their own personalities, which were written as "typical opposites" - calm and analytical vs aggressive and impulse driven. But it does not feel forced, they feel fleshy in what they do, and their actions are clearly justified by their past experiences. Game ends in a way I did not predict, and that it's strongest point for me. I did feel like literal shit during last sequence, and was like "yeah, yeah do it, I deserved it".

Gameplay: Split screen without need to sit on the same sofa. Only one player needs to own game, for both people to play. Which is neat. It is strictly co-op game, and is unplayable with only one player (AI won't control second character). Fact that screen is split in half all the time can be bit confusing though. Action-linear game, where we can do some small side activities. You can compete in throwing darts, play baseball, throw horseshoe, play music or just annoy your partner by not going towards objective. It's possible to interact with objects individually, and each character react differently. While one will open fridge and say there is nothing of value, other will open fridge, pick up beer and drink it. Talking with NPCs will result in different dialogues, depending who talk to NPC right now. It does help to flesh out characters and makes game really enjoyable. There are moments where cutscene is shared, and characters must pick what they will do. For example they enter elevator with guard inside. Try to talk your way out of it, or attack?

Graphic, music, bugs: I did not encounter any bugs in this game. Music is fitting, and graphic is fine. There are minor delays in transition from "shared cutscene" to "actual gameplay" for joining player. So while cutscene per se plays fine, then at the end I was stuck a bit on loading screen, while other character was already in-game, playing.

Story: Story revolves around events from I WW. German father of French-German newborn gets mobilization letter from German army. Kid grandpa is mobilized by French army, which results in grandfather and father serving in hostile armies. There are two extra playable characters - nurse and soldier from USA (or Canada :P). Game in accessible way shows how terrible and pointless war is. When people which were living next to each other are forced to attack one another. Game uses few of the big war events (like use of planes, tanks or combat gases) as backstory, which ties fate of playable characters.

Gameplay: Simple adventure game with bit of really easy puzzling, and bit annoying QTE (similar to guitar hero minigame). Game is made as 2D side scroller, with ability to move upwards / down to enter buildings or go down the stairs. No inventory system - our character can hold only one item at a time. We are accompanied by rescue doggo, which can perform simple commands - like bring object, or push levers.

Graphic, music, bugs: Graphic is simple but fitting into whole war-theme. Music is rather ambient, and game is bugless.

Story: Well there is no story. So not much to write here. No images showing main character past, no memories, no nothing. There is one cut scene after player collects all mementos and beat last chapter of game again. But IMO it's weak to hide only useful bit of information behind that much backtracking. Names of optional achievements points towards stages of grief, game does not hint why main character has depression.

Gameplay: Well made platformer with very easy environmental puzzles, most of them are skippable. Controls are fluid, and we unlock new abilities along the way - double jump, swimming, ability to smash things etc. But there are no metrovidania elements - it's not possible to backtrack and there is only one possible way at any time. Only after game is beaten it's possible to pick previous levels to look for collectibles.

Graphic, music, bugs: Strongest point of this game is art style, and I do think that game should not be rated based on story or puzzles. As both those elements are totally secondary. Game starts in black and white. With time we unlock colors, which fill world like water color paint fills canvas. Sound is ambient, game is bugless. This game is more of calm art experience, than story-driven or gameplay-based game.

Story: We're reincarnation of hero that trapped god-sisters long time ago. And surprisingly we must defeat them again. So nothing extraordinary or deep.

Gameplay: Our character has ability to change alignment. When we're blue we're protected against blue enemy attacks, and against red attacks when red. But at the same time we deal not much damage towards enemy of the same alignment. There are also alignment-dependent platforms and blocks, which are solid when we have the same color. This mechanic forces us to constant shifting alignment, often mid-jumps which can be challenging. Certain abilities are blocked behind story-important events. Killed enemies and pots drop down coins which can be used to extend health or energy pool.

Graphic, music, bugs: Graphic is simple, and all objects have yellow outlines. With exception for blue / red enemies or blocks / platforms. Music is hardly noticeable. Game is bugless, and only problem is that there is weird delay between pressing jump button and actual jump. Which requires bit of getting used to.

Story: Hitler was close to be defeated, so he released disease which turned all alive and dead Nazi soldiers into zombies. And they wan to rule the world! We must of course stop them. During story we visit Berlin and some other areas.

Gameplay: Game is similar to Sniper Elite with exception that there are not many glory shots, as it'd be hard to have slow-mo shots in game for 4 players (when other player gets glory shot, other see it as well). Game is quite corridor like, and there is not much incentive to roam around. There are few enemy types, but in the end they all boil down to "shot in the head till it's dead" strategy. There are no mission challenges or optional objectives. We can choose how our character will look like and our weapons at the beginning of mission. No character progression or different abilities sets though.

Graphic, music, bugs: Graphics looks fine, but it is already bit dated. Music is nothing extraordinary. And game is mostly bugless, but there can be bad ragdoll effects of objects and enemies. Plus enemy can get stuck in half-dead state somewhere on the map, which blocks further progress.

Story: We start game on an island. Follow red fox, see character in red hood that's always few steps ahead of us. Like if they want to guide us. There are paintings that show us bits of the story, we can find collectible "books" that allow us to learn more. And then game ends with twist that basically negates whole story. It's game where everyone can have different ending, and be sure their version is only proper. So meh. I don't like games with open endings, where nothing in the end is explained as part of the lore.

Gameplay: It's simple platformer with puzzles. When puzzles are fine, don't require weird logic and don't have step learning curve, platformer part is bad. Controls are wonky and sometimes not really responsive, character can have problem to understand we want to jump from the edge instead of move along it etc. On top of that camera can know better where we want to look. Which is annoying. Character can roll, but there is no gameplay-wise reason to do so (no places to crawl through or need to avoid enemies).

Graphic, music, bugs: Art style is nice, but game is poorly optimized. I did comparison last month in my GPU undervolt add-on. ME: Andromeda has way more effects and advanced graphic, and it still never drops to 20 FPS and is less GPU-heavy. RIME can work poorly on GTX 1070 from what I saw in discussion page on Steam. So yeah. You can mess up Unreal 4 game as well, and not only Unity games can be so badly made. Music is fine, fits nicely to changing game atmosphere (and have violin moments, I love violin). On top of that game is bugless, if we don't count poor optimization and random problems with platform detection.

Story: Our character is thrown away from house (or more like hotel?), as they were lazy and messy. So we're forced to find new home for ourselves. It later turns into "save the world" theme, but it's shown in not so-serious way. So it doesn't feel overly forced or pompous. We learn history of Wuppo land, and facts about creatures that live there. Nothing is overly deep though, but it doesn't need to be in this type of light game.

Gameplay: It's similar to Hollow Knight. We have backstory to push us forward, responsive controls so platforming parts feels well-made, simple boss fights that doesn't require nanoseconds accuracy. Both platforming and boss fights are way simpler in comparison to HK, which makes gameplay less stressful. There is only one annoying boss mid-game that could be designed better. There is a bit of metrovidania touch here. We find objects that are needed to progress plot - like onions to make soup. We collect a lot of objects, and can equip them to use as weapon or costume. They are tied without any restriction to any button on controller we want.

Graphic, music, bugs: Graphic is really simple, but specifically colorful and weirdly happy. Music acts well as background, characters are not voiced but use sims-like blobs / clicks when they talk. Game is bugless, I didn't find anything that would make it hard to play. Only (as I wrote earlier) one boss could be designed bit better, because it's possible to get stuck between it's body parts during the fight.

Story: It did feel like story was worse than in previous game. Maybe because I was caring about main suspect from previous game more. In this game our task is to localize double agent, who went missing while spying for other country. It later changes into task to discredit journalist, who wants to put The Nation (so our mother country) in bad light. Of course nothing is simple. People have their backstory, which explains their motives. And it's again strongest point of this game - showing that reality is not black-and-white, and it may be better idea to dig up longer to see someone's motives, instead of acting on 1st bit of info we find.

Gameplay: Just like in previous game we read internet sites, check people phones and PCs to find bits of information. After they are uploaded into Orwell (so big spying program), can lead to other bits thanks to cross-linking. We found that someone met suspect in park? Let's put park address into facebook-like site search, to find photos made there, and see who suspect met with. On top of that we have influencer tool (unlocked near end of the game), which is used to create narrative that's later send into social media. Similar to what trolls on troll farms in Russia and other countries do. It is bit scary, that something we do in game, is happening every day in real world. Where gov departments responsible for propaganda use farms, to send certain narrative into the internet, to create "reality" that's convenient for them.

Graphic, music, bugs: Apart from this "can't mark as read" bug game is bugless. Graphic is basic, but well designed and serve it's purpose well. I do think though developers could use some slider to change interface size. I did feel like a lot of space is wasted for too big buttons, instead of giving more reading / compare space. Music is really ambient, nothing exceptional or memorable.
