I have now played a lot of the 7 Wonders games, but this is probably my favourite one so far. Each level consists of two stages. In the first stage you have to clear all the fields of your board of the underlying tiles. To do that you have to simply match 3 or more stones above them. Once you cleared everything, phase two will start. There will be new lines on the board and a cube will appear that needs to be brought to a certain taget. In order to do so you have to again match 3 or more stones to move the cube. Since the cube can only fall down you need to turn the whole board to the left or right in order to get it to the desired target. Of course like always there are special stones, that will get rid of a whole row or even more, that you'll get for breaking more then 4 stones, but that is the same in every match-3 game. These two phases made a real difference for me, since you had to think a lot about how you would get the cube to it's destination. I enjoyed it very much.

I've played this one for the BLAEO challenge where you should play a previously unfinished game.

I really like this one. It's a kinetic novel dealing with loss/mental health issues.
This is what makes it quite problematic to follow the storyline in the beginning since the protagonist has hallucinations and jumps between past and present and hallucinations without any delay.
This will happen throughout the whole novel, so honestly I made a spreadsheet with all the different names and people and places. Who they were, if it was past or present or hallucination, because I think otherwise I would have lost the plot several times.

I can't really write more about it without giving away the plot, but I enjoyed it very much. Otherwise I would not have sat through 30h of it XD

It is surely not the best Luxor game I played so far, but it is not the worst either. It was some nice fun for a few hours. Nice ingame achievments. Not sure why they are not brought to steam.

Really beautiful game. Quite disturbing in places. Only thing I did not really like was the fighting system. Especially the fights in the dark were not a favourite of mine. Could have done without that.
Not sure if I was asleep during the instructions, but I could not remember a single one and combat was not fun without knowing what to do and since you were dead after three hits there was not much room for experiments either.

I gave up on this game for the foreseeable future. Did not get along with that game at all. You cannot command your troops to go anywhere. You have to actually run around in front of the enemy and wave your flag so that your troops attack. Did I mention that you cannot fight at all. Just not my kind of game ¯\(ツ)/¯

Played it in co-op with my 9-year-old nephew. Had a lot of fun doing so and was honestly schooled by my nephew for the first few levels since he played those on xbox already.

If you know the first 6 films you know what to expect story wise, so no surprises here.
Simply Star Wars just with Legos XD

Since I only had one controller my nephew got it since the controlls are far easier on controller than kb, which was left for me :-/
Keyboard controlls are hard, though a few times prefereable to the controller. Had to reconfigure the key settings to use both hands equally though.
What I did not particularly liked was the fact that there was only one screen. Playing co-op with a nine year-old can be rather challenging. You are trying to get to something valuable on the left side while he just wants to go through the door on the right… it might have got heated sometimes XD
Anyways it was lots of fun.

Played it in co-op with my 9-year-old nephew. Had a lot of fun doing so. This one my nephew did not know, so we were on equal ground. Sometimes it was a bit difficult to see what we needed to do to get further but I simply googled it the few times we were completely stumped.

Controlls wise this was exactly the same as the last one and if you are going to play it I would suggest using a controller.

The one thing that I liked more here than in the other Lego Star wars one is the split screen. Only in certain areas you have one screen. Everywhere else each player gets half the screen. On the one hand this makes it far easier to play since each player can choose where ever they want to go, but on the other hand finding the other player when you need to can be hard.

Overall a nice experience and I'll have to complete the game some time. But for that I will probably need to replay the levels serveral times with different characters to get to everything.

Played it in co-op with my 9-year-old nephew. Started playing this with my nephew on his last day here and we were not very far when he had to leave. Had to promise that I won't play it further without him. So far I like playing as Black Widdow or Captain America most.

Controlls are a bit different to the Lego Star Wars games, but not by much. Still would prefer controller over keyboard. and this one also has the split screen for co-op play.

A rating will follow once I've played more of it.

This one I played with my niece and my nephew or better said I let them play by themselves until about level 14/27. The story is so so. Your uncle, the zoo owner is traveling on buisness and someone stole some animals and you have to find them before the zoo inspectors come and close the zoo, because of the missing animals. So in order to stop that you have to solve some hidden object scenes or puzzles. It's not the first HOG I played but one of the hardest to find everything without any hints. Some of the things were nearly impossible to see, like something black in a black background or similar. The puzzles and other mini games in between were actually fun and a nice change in gameplay. But some were impossible to solve because of a missing puzzle pieces. Luckily you can play a hidden object scene instead.

Another negative is that you are having a lot of problems with double pictures and fragmantes of previous ones still there. Not sure how to describe that properly so here is a picutre. Luckily this is not in the ho scene, but still it is irritating. You can sometimes straighten them out by hovering over them with the mouse.

Not a really big fan of Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris. Would have been probably better in multiplayer. Have the feeling that it was made for that. Some of the challenges were pretty hard all alone :(
I didn't really hate it, but I'm also not loving it.

Really liked this game. So much so that i bought the pre-quel and LiS2 before being finished with the first one.

I liked the game, but not the ending. To say you can only save either Chloe or the city is rather stupid. Why not travel back, photograph Nathan with the gun and pull the alarm. This way you have proof of him with the gun. He can get exspelled and everyone can live happily ever after ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

By the way my true ending is Chloe, sorry Arkadia.

Liked the game, both the sneaking around part and the reckless killings, well near the end I was not so much for stealth killings since they took too long. What I did not like, were the constant crashes without warning. Sometimes I had to load the game 4-5 times for it even to start properly, just so that it could run without any problems for hours on end. And then the next day it would crash after 10 minutes or 2 hours. And since you cannot really save in this game (only pre-determined spots that you first have to reach) this can mean that you might loose several hours of playtime.

Overall I probably played 4-5 hours more because of lost progress.

An interesting board game. Reminded me a lot of the old RPG board games I played as a teen with my friends.
Only played it in single player, but I can imagine the fun will double when playing with friends.

A solid Solitaire game. Nothing fancy. Only had ingame achievements which I all earned. You can earn extra undos and extra cards to play in each game and save them up. You should since you will need them for the last few chapters, since the cards of your stack re only few. You earn in-game money which you can use to buy other card decks that you like better.

First I played the remastered version since it was the newer of the two and promised better game mechanics. Really nice Solitaire game that I wholeheartedly can recommend. Only thing I did not like are the egg and the material drop rates. I've played nearly 30 hours, but I'm still missing eggs. And let's not talk about the materials that you need for evoling the pets. Will have to play more of it in the future to get the final achievements.

Then I played the first version since this was what I actually won on SG. Even the first version was nice Solitaire game that I wholeheartedly can recommend. Only thing I did not like are the material drop rates (they somehow fixed the egg drop rates or I was just simply pretty darn lucky). Only played about 18h of it and have all my eggs, but am still missing a lot of materials. Will have to play more of it in the future to get the final achievements.

I did it. I finally completed this one. To get the last achievement was such a pain in the ***. I don't know why they need to make it extra difficult to complete games. It only took me several hours of repeatedly playing the same level again and again to finally get there.
Overall I loved the game, just that last achievement was :-/

Game was okay. But nothing more. Found the having to "light" the enemy up before shooting them annoying after a while. And the game got repetetive quick.

Liked the game. Nice story though gameplay was mostly button mashing. You can choose from a host of different weapons, but no combo attacks. It's a pretty basic hack'n'slash.

Liked the game, but gameplay was hard sometimes. The controls make the game harder than it needs to be. But in the end it is just a lot of learning how the bosses move to finally beat it. I think the only real tips I can give you is learn the boss patterns and learn to dodge their attacks. It might be tedious, but after a while you improve. And if it is not working at all maybe watch a YouTube video or two. It not always helped me when I was stuck but it gave me some ideas how to dodge. And sometimes that’s all you need. That and a lot of patience.

Somewhat cute, but hella grindy. Finally gave up after over 20h. I have better things to do with my time.

Liked the games general idea. Some levels were rather hard to finish, but it was overall really nice. Also had some problems with starting the game. Every time I tried to start it in my native resolution the game became unplayable since the whole game was moved to the side and you could not reach any button. Had to kill the game via taskmanager since nothing else worked. Had to choose lower resolution or needed to play in windowed mode for it to work properly.

Really liked the game. So far I've only played one other telltale game (The Walking Dead) and I like this one better. It feels really like a story from GoT that could have happened. But if you know GoT, you know there is not likely a happy end to it.

Liked the game. My first playthrough was non-violent, which was a pain in the a**, I mean after all you are playing an assassin ^_^
Not really sure about the plot to be honest. It was never really explained why the assassin is going after the king. You've got bits and pieces from the gurads conversations, if you kept them alive long enough, but never really the whole picture.
I started a kill-them-all playthrough, but have not completed the game yet (to get all the achievements).

Liked the game. Took me a while to get familiar with the controls, but then I really liked the range of different weapons to choose from.

What a fun little game. I really loved the caterpillar. A great if rather sad story about life and death. The story is really well told, great voice actors, especially the little girl. And the graphics are also really nice. The riddles are not too hard, so everyone should be able to finish it. I can totally recommend it :)

I would give it a 7.5/10. It's a nice enough story (sometimes a bit predictable) , graphics are good. Game play is good, if you like that sort of game. Your main character uses a staff to fight a bunch of different mechs in close combat and can also use that same staff as a long range weapon by firing projectiles/stun shots with it. As you traverse through the levels your main character parkours through the level, though you cannot fall anywhere since he can only jump at certain point where he will land savely, it is quite fun. Sometimes you have to go help the secondary character, which can be a hassel since you have to throw her to a certain upper level or further away point, which is not clearly indicated and you have to run around a bit and smash buttons for it to work.
You can "customize" your main character by earning/collecting tech globes and giving them to your secondary character for skill upgrades (weapon/fight/shield/health).
In about the last third of the game you meet a third character which will also join your little troupe by the name of Pigsy. He is a small, rotund man who only owns some long range weapons (he's the character for the DLC). He "helps" you until the end of the game.
Then we come to the DLC. The idea is nice. You see some episode of what happened before the main characters arrive. But here we come to the big problem in my opinion. Pigsy is a character for long range weapon use only (with little to no health, two hits insta death) in a world that is made for either stealthily trying to avoid enemies (not really possible with that character and its limitations) or close quarter combat (which he cannot do). Which means you die a lot. Which can get quite annoying really fast, since there is no possibility to save your progress, it gets automatically saved at some checkpoints that are not actually shown beforehand.

So I would suggest, get the game, avoid the DLC.

By the way I played the game with a controller. Not sure how it would play itself with mouse and keyboard.

Another cute point'n'click adventure that I really liked. Same as for Silence I liked the story and graphics a lot. Small tip if you want to 100% it, follow a walkthrough if you just want to play it once, since one of the achievements is that you complete the game in under 1h. If you need to check something just hit pause and the timer will pause.

On the one hand I really liked it. It reminded me of my youth and Motocross Maniacs, that I played endless hours on my gameboy (don't judge me I'm old), it played like it just in colour and with enemies. But then I crashed through a barrier and could not advance any more because I had not cleared the original target and I had to reload the game. This happened several times.
Also on some stages you get insta killed by the bosses or you drop down in some gap and die :-/ And don't get me started on accidentily flipping over and dying, when activating some switch without tapping any button except the ones to activate the flipping switch. Or the god damned ramps and flipping/jumping from one to the other.

Actually this is where I gave up. After several hours of trying to jump from one ramp to the next in one of the last levels I just had it. The special skills you needed to make the jump only worked every once in a while and never when I needed them :(

Nice little game with interesting game physics. Unfortunatley my natural screen resolution is 1980x1080 and for the life of me I could not get the game to run on that resolution. The whole screen was off, even though according to the settings it should work. it was so bad that I could not even start the game since the whole screen was somehow moved and was blocking the button. I had to kill the programm to get out.
Set it to a different resolution and the problem went away.

Didn't finish the game in May (played a bit more in June and am at the last level, but stuck because the physics are totally reversed for the last level).

Game with a really nice atmosphere and really interesting gameplay. The shadow parts are an interesting change from normal game play, but sometimes it gets really annoying, because the riddles are sometimes a bit hard, mostly due to having to figure out how to place stuff correctly, so that you can use the shadows and you can miss some things without a walkthrough if you are going for 100%

Nice addition to the series. First time I ever got stuck on levels. A bit stupid that you can get stuck and the game does not notice it by ending the game.

What changed to the previous ones: Now you have the possibility to get big caches of food and other stuff. And your char needs to water the plants first before you can get any fruits.

It’s official, I still hate QTE and this game is full of it. Had to switch back to the older version because in the newer version a lot of times the QTE commands were not recognized so you failed the tests :(

Overall the gameplay and story was interesting, but the QTE's were really annoying. If you hate QTE like me, it might not be the best game for you.

It's a VN that plays in a lingere shop. You are looking for a new employee since your boss just suddenly quit on you. A lot of girls in lingerie. Not much more to see.

Pretty basic sniper game. Kind of fun, sometimes the controls do not work a hundred procent.

Fun game. Kind of reminded me of Borderlands 2, which I recently played too, but only in the regard that you drive around in a car/buggie and that you shoot stuff. Liked the different weapon choices a lot, though after a while I only used the sniper rifle and the shoutgun.mNot much else to say about it.

VN is okay. Should probably be renamed "100 different ways to die" for all the different ways the protagonist dies in all the bad ends.

Cute little VN. I got hungry reading it. Though I'm not sure what to think about a couple of 9 year olds (demon or not) in love ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A bunch of girls on a star ship, most of them abducted from their previous life with no way back. During the game they decide to get mostly nacked several times.
One of the things I did not particularly likes was that sometime what was said and what was shown were complete oposites. Stuff like people were upset and the picture was of a smiling person.
Overall it was ok.

I really like this one, though I'm not even halfway through. It's a kinetic novel dealing with loss/mental health issues.
This is what makes it quite problematic to follow the storyline in the beginning since the protagonist has hallucinations and jumps between past and present and hallucinations without any delay.
Also it is a game with the longest prologue I've ever seen. Reached the prologues end at around 5 h of constant reading.

I really liked this one. Did not finish it in May, but finished it a few days ago. You can choose to play either as male or female (you have to do both if you want to 100% as far as I know) and you have a lot more choices to make than in a normal VN, for example you can explore the space ship or choose to fly somewhere with it to visit planets, other ships etc.

Okay game. If you like to remember commands and typing them in really fast, got a bit repetitive in the end. Not sure how to describe it.

Not my kind of game. Too many constantly flashing lights in the nightmare scenes for my taste. Could not finish the game.

What can I say about this one… It’s a bit like the movie groundhog day, but a lot of fun. Beaten all stories. Last achievement though is a pain in the ***. You have to learn every possible skill in all levels. Problem: you only get 1 skill point for each level and by the end of the story you are at least 7-10 levels short. Each level needs about 30k exp. The max exp you can get for a level is about 10k if you hit the correct combos and you have to replay the same 5-10min of the game over and over again for several hours. Other than the grinding for the last achievement I really liked the game. Still missing the last achievement. Need another 4 levels, but have not found the time yet.

Great game. Played through it in a day. It's basically a gem matching game, with puzzle and fighter elements. Your char tries to enter the Battle Chef Brigade. In order to do so you have to challenge other chefs to battles. You have to use ingredients that you get by killing monsters and then cooking them up into a dish (that's the gem matching part) that the judges will enjoy better than your opponents.
The game also has a really nice story. I enjoyed it a lot.

Wow. What a game. Nearly 50 hours in and I'm only in chapter 8. Well I kind of get lost in the side missions and mini games. I will definitely play more of it this month.
