October report
October has been a pretty successful moth when it comes to gaming, especially when taking in consideration I been traveling for half of it and I actually re-100%ed a bunch of games again on top of the new completed games too.

Review: It is less of a maze game (the mazes are incredibly simple) and more of a test in patience as if you touch any of the edges of the the maze with your mouse it will reset you back to the beginning of the level. It is honestly frustrating, especially since the hitboxes don't feel very accurate either. It wasn't worth the original 0,79€ and it sure is not worth the increased price of 1,99€ it is now. It works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).

Review: It is a slider puzzle game with 3 different difficulties (3x3, 4x4 and 5x5) and 10 different images to solve. It comes with a few issues: bad English, each level starts with the image being scrambled step by step which takes forever and from what I could tell you can not skip it and nonsensical price increase. I don't really care about the images either, but that is a subjective thing. It works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).

Review: The idea is that you manipulate pieces of an object till you manage to reconstruct it. I wish I could say I liked it as graphic and atmosphere are just lovely but it has 3 issues: bad controls, pixel perfect position hunting and I had it happen multiple times that the level literally just wasn't solvable because a piece wouldn't move in the right direction as it should. Luckily restarting the game fixes the last one. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).

Review: A nice movement based puzzle game with 90 levels to solve. Every 10 levels you get introduced to a new mechanic to keep the game fresh. Linux version of the game works without any issues.

Review: A decent and chill match 3 puzzle game where you build bigger buildings by matching. You have multiple different locations available (each have different grids or gimmicks) and cosmetic settings. On top of that you can also earn card power ups to help you. I wish there was some way of getting rid of buildings once they are built to the max level (8) and a way to back out of the card menu without actually using a powerup. Works fine on Linux with Proton.
Achievements: 24 of 24 (100%)
Review:A HOG with too many flaws. It is extremely linear with only 1-2 scenes available to you at any time and suffers really badly from the HOG logic syndrome. Some mini games quite buggy and they pretty much all are really easy. On Linux if you into the setting menu and try to save something the game just straight up crashes and your settings don't get saved. However other than that the game works without any issues.

Review: I got pretty mixed feelings about this game. A city builder where you can not fail at all so it can get pretty boring as there is no challenge. There is multiple locations to build your city in, a pretty good amount of different buildings and decorations with 3 different color schemes. It would be a decent city builder game if you want just something extremely chill but the controls are just terrible and annoying. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).
Achievements: 13 of 13 (100%)
Review: A really good game where you are tasked with checking the documents of people who wish to enter Arstotzka via the Grestin checkpoint. It starts of simple but as the time goes on you get more and more things you need to pay attention to. It comes with a story, moral questions and get 20 different endings. It is really satisfying to play, however it can get a bit boring and repetitive if you try and get all the endings. Linux version works fine.

Review: I originally played the game in 2019 and I remembered really enjoying it. However now 5 years later I found it more annoying than not, but also poorly balanced and full of bad design choices (can't move buildings, having multiple of the same building gets stupid expensive, some things take way too long to craft,...). Also the developer behind it seems terrible. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).
September report
I actually got a lot more than this done, but it just doesn’t show up because its either me re-100%ing the game (My Time at Sandrock, American Truck Simulator, Grow a Carrot), I don’t have all the DLC needed for the 100% (Pixel Puzzles Ultimate, House Flipper) or they game that take a very long time to complete (Cookie Clicker, Train Valley 2).

Review: A decent enough maze game with 60 levels in total to solve. The levels start up pretty easy but they do get a bit more difficult down the line. The movement could be a bit better tho. Works without any problems on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).

Review: It is an incredibly chill and relaxing puzzle game with lovely graphic. The goal is quite simple - you have to score as many points as possible by placing down hexagonal tiles while trying to match their edges and complete quests which gives you more tiles to place. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with it. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 31 of 31 (100%)
Review: A nice jigsaw game where you can solve 6 different jigsaw images with 5 different piece counts (135, 240, 375, 540, 735). My only 2 complaints I have about them are: - I wish there was more variety in the images and less in piece counts - related to the piece counts I wish solving a jigsaw at 735 pieces would unlock the achievements for the smaller piece counts as well. Other than that no issues and the game works perfectly on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Review: A cute and relaxing game where your objective is take photos of adorable dogs and that way fulfill quests given to you by other dogs/things/people. There is many different dogs that you can dress up and play with/give them items in 5 different locations during 4 different times of the day. There is multiple different effects you can give your photos depending on what lens and film you use to take them. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 19 of 19 (100%)
Review: A beautiful short story game about 2 artists with some really simple puzzles and a stunning artstyle. Saying much more here would spoil it and I feel like it is better to just be experienced. With it only taking about an hour and half to finish with the free DLC included I would recommend picking it up from a sale/bundle as it is a pricey otherwise. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).
August report
Only 2 games done in August, but they are 2 big games and I was on holiday for a week and half of the month and got sick right after so I guess it is not the worst progress all things considered.

Review: An extremely fun 2D top-down battle royale game where you play as cute animals. It is free to play but not pay to win in any way as the only things you can buy is cosmetic items. You can play either solo, duos or squads (up to 4 players) or some special game modes. The queue times for the game are usually only a couple of minutes max (however the game does add bots to it if not enough players are present). Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 454 of 454 (100%)
Review:It is basically PPT just with seemingly less effort and attention put into it, less puzzles (currently just under 400) and differently (in my subjective option worse) themed images. Unless you are into anime I would stick with the PPT (or even PPU) instead. Works fine on Linux with Proton (tested form 8.0-2 on).

Review: A cute idle game that has potential but is a bit too flawed and buggy for now. Issues: bad UI, buggy achievements, slow start and no end game, the platforming in the platformer part is terrible, no offline progression, spams Steam inventory with worthless items. Good: variety of different ways you can earn your carrots depending on effort, It has some really good ideas, cute bunnies and graphics. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Review: Very promising game, with more work on it it would have probably turned out fantastic . But instead of working on it the developers decided its too hard and used a cheap excuse to basically abandon it. The state that the game is right now is extremely buggy and is missing a lot of features you would expect the game to have. It also has bad performance, buggy achievements and absurd price point. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Review: Cute game where you can design your own stickers and run a sticker shop. It is generally a pleasant experience however it left me wishing for a couple of things: more variety of sticker/sticker themes and a bit more in depth management of your sticker business. But overall I enjoyed it even tho it was a bit grindy to unlock every sticker/upgrade. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 7 of 7 (100%)
Review: An ok nonogram/picross game with 140 levels to solve + 20 bonus levels of different variety (memory, slider puzzles). It is not bad, but also had a couple of things that annoyed me: you can not save mid level and it has a stupid 3 star system which penalizes you for mistakes/missclicks. If I make a mistake I will figure it out with time when things stop adding up by myself. There is no need for this. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 7 of 7 (100%)
Review: A really nice jigsaw like puzzle game with 30 images to solve in a variety of piece cuts and playmodes. The artstyle is very nice too. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 683 of 683 (100%)
Review: It is basically Pixel Puzzles Ultimate, but with better UI and less jigsaw puzzles to solve (currently around 600) of many different sizes and lots of varied images. If you like jigsaws and don't mind shelling out some money for them (in the form of DLC) it is a really solid pick for a game and it has some free puzzles so you can test it out if you like it first before buying more. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (tested form 8.0-2 on).
Achievements: 1 of 1 (100%)
Review: A great puzzle game with 20 mazes to solve and each maze comes with a different creative twist and its free on top of it too. Sliding puzzles should be illegal tho. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Review: A not particularly good and quite lazily made memory game (the tiles you flip are literally just one solid color and they repeat multiple times in the same level) with 40 levels to play. Couldn't care less for the images either, but that is just me and it is a personal thing. Works without any problems on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).
Achievements: 40 of 40 (100%)
Review: It could have been an ok puzzle game with 40 jigsaw puzzles between 12 and 74 pieces, however the fact that you always see the image you are supposed to put together with the exact jigsaw shapes bellow where you are supposed to place them completely ruins the point of a jigsaw. Couldn't care less for the images either, but that is just me and it is a personal thing. Works without any problems on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Review: This game is absolute pure nostalgia for my childhood. And while it is a good game and it has a ridiculous amount of ingredients/customers/recipes/clothing/decorations to unlock it does however come with some annoying issues: it is too way too easy, it could do with some more upgrades you could buy, some animations are unnecessarily slow and could be speed up/skipped, it gets repetitive. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-1).
Achievements: 52 of 52 (100%)
Review: A good hidden object game where you have to find 757 scattered cats around a main and 6 bonus levels. On the main level each section gets colored as you find all the cats in it which is really satisfying to see. On the bonus levels also get colored, but only once you finish the whole level. Moving cars are a nice touch and idea, but also kinda annoying to deal with. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Moving cars are a nice touch and idea, but annoying to deal with. I had one cat not appear in advanced mode till I reloaded. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-2).

Review: A decent RPG maker game with 3 different stories where your goal is not murder a specific person and get away with it by pinning the murder on someone else. In each story you have multiple weapons, evidence and people you can pin the murder to. It is decent fun however does get a bit repetitive hunting down every scenario. Game works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0).
Achievements: 100 of 100 (100%)
Review: A puzzle game with 50 levels where you just rotate the pieces around till they are facing the correct direction. The images are not great as they have some weird filter on them (or are AI generated with some weird artstyle, who knows) which makes it a lot worse than if they were just normal animal pictures. Works without any problems on Linux with Proton (9.0).

Review: A bad, boring runner game which loves to randomly glitch out when moving left or right. Stay away. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0).

Review: Cute exploration game about reaching the top of the mountain on the island you are on. There is a couple of things letting it down: it is pretty short; I wish there was maybe a few more quests, minigames or something else new to do; The keyboard controls are terrible, especially when it comes to controlling the boat. However that said it was still a generally pleasant experience playing it, it just could be better a lot better. Linux version of the game works fine.

Review: While you can definitely tell that the game is a bit older it is still a very good point and click game. Only real complaint I have about it is that the audio quality for the English voice lines was a bit mixed. Sometimes it would be good quality, sometimes bad and it would switch around a bit. Linux version of the game works without any issues.
Achievements: No achievements
Review:A decent enough visual novel. There are some issues with it: it sometimes feels slow; some stuff just doesn't make any sense/there are some mistakes in the text; the main character is not a very likable guy; could use a bigger variety of images. But overall the story did keep me interested till the end. Linux version of the game works fine except for missing text on the confirm/cancel buttons when selecting things.
Achievements: No achievements
Review: A dead and bad multiplayer game of humans vs animals (4 different animals you can pick between: fly, bee, spider, mouse). There is also a single player "training mode" but its really buggy when it registers "slaps" and its not not fun at all. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-1).

Review: A decent FMV game. The good: it is really well made and has an interesting enough story. The bad: I could tell what the twist in the story was from the very beginning and it felt a bit slow at some points. The neutral: its quite short, about 40ish minutes for a playthrough. Playing it on Linux with Proton (9.0) I came across a couple of issues: videos wouldn't play unless I pauses and unpaused the game and I had to do that at the beginning of each clip and I couldn't skip viewed scenes at all, nothing would happen when I selected it. Other than that it ran ok.

Review: A decent game where you have to perform surgery on your patients with weird injuries and you fix them in silly ways.. There is 9 levels in total to play. The game works ok on Linux with Proton (9.0-1), however it does start lagging after about half an hour. Simple restart fixes the issue and with the game being about an hour long to complete is not too big of a problem.
Achievements: No achievements
Review: A non particularly great point and click game. The inventory UI is pretty bad as you won't be able to reverse out of a scene with it open and it sometimes won't tell you what is the item you got it in. Linux version of the game insists on starting on the wrong (leftmost instead of main) monitor and it can get really laggy for no reason. There is way better games out there to play instead.

Review:A pretty simple puzzle game with 100 levels where you have to find words that fit a certain theme inside of a grid.

Review: It is a decent management game set in the Two Point universe where you manage 12 different universities and have 17 different silly courses to pick between. A lot of the levels also come with a bit of a twist. A few issues I had: the item placement can be extremely buggy, it could use an extra "very fast" time option, the UI could use a little bit of love. It is still definitely fun and I enjoyed my time with it. Linux version of the game works without any issues.

Review:A really easy puzzle game with 80 levels to solve where all you have to do is to draw a line through every square. Every 10 levels you get a new mechanic added to the levels. It is ok, I just wish it was a bit harder and more challenging. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0).

Review:An exploration game where you can not fail which has some really easy and straight forward puzzles. It is not a challenge to play the game at all, but it is an enjoyable experience to explore around a mostly submerged city. I played the original 6 years ago so I don't remember the details, but I remember liking the original more than this one. Also on this one I kept getting stuck on things about when walking which is not ideal. Works with Proton (8.0-5).

Review:An ok-ish addition to the co-op We Were Here series. It is pretty short with only 3 puzzles to solve but still pretty fun to play through and lose your faith in your friend/have your friend lose faith in you. Also it was given away for free by the developers so can't complain too much about it. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (8.0-4).
