I was pleasantly surprised with this game, it came out to be way more fun than I expected. Very interesting mechanics, nice soundtrack and lovely art style. It can be quite challenging at times, so you won't run through it too fast. It took me a little over 7 hours to complete it in 98%, but it has some replayability if you want to stay around the village of Mirage for a little longer. Anyway, I highly recommend trying Creature in the Well, creators deserve high praise for this little gem. 9/10.
If you liked Prey and you're not the type to give up easily then you should definitely try out Mooncrash. This is a roguelike version of Prey, you'll be visiting the same places over and over (well, actually not that much) to complete story objectives and escape Pytheas moon base with 5 playable characters. After each simulation reset (game takes place inside Kasma corp [rivals of Transtar] simulation) locations change a bit, e.g new hazards emerge, different enemies appear, loot is getting randomly generated etc. Some say that this DLC is unfair or too difficult, but I can't agree - it runs on the same rules as Prey, nothing will surprise you here (except for 1 new enemy, slightly modified Nightmare). Only real differences are the timer (the more time you spend inside the simulation the more dangerous it becomes, but you can easily slow down the clock with consumables) and lack of manual saves (only autosaves). Mooncrash can definitely be a challenge, but beating the game is very satisfying. I can't say that this DLC is as good as the main game, but it's still pretty fun!
I had literally zero expectations when I launched Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time. Thought I'll just have some laugh experiencing first hand how bad this game is (hey, the internet told me so!). But you know what? It isn't! After 200 hours and 2 finished playthroughs I'm craving for more of Cyberpunk, 'cause this game just rocks. Sure, bugs are there. Most of them are just some minor things though, nothing game breaking. Some say that NPCs AI is terrible - it could've been better, but it doesn't ruin immersion. And yes, it could definitely use some more time in the works, it isn't as polished as one could expect. The optimization is pretty meh, but despite all that I fell in love with it. What's best in Cyberpunk 2077? Story and characters. Some say that main plot feels chaotic or rushed. I gotta agree that some parts, like Act 3, feel a bit rushed, but not the rest. I can't remember last time when game's story got me so hooked. Part of its success are characters we meet during our adventures. Cyberpunk gotta have the most 'real' NPCs I've ever seen in any video game. Animations, writing and voice acting for all major characters are A+. It's just impossible not to like them, even if they're pissing you off sometimes (looking at you, Johnny!). As for some other stuff. Gunplay's really good - it's not Destiny, sure, but guns variety and their nice 'feel' make fights really satisfying. City design is top notch, even if it's not as 'alive' as many have hoped. It really shows how much work they put into it. Music! Soundtrack is fantastic, as you could expect from Witcher's composer. And radio songs are just the best. This game has a lot of potential and I honestly hope that CDPR will continue their work on it. Cyberpunk simply deserves to be polished and expanded with Witcher-3-quality expansions. 9/10 Grab it if you can, you won't regret it choom.
I got this game for free after buying some other titles several months ago. I'm not a fan of platformers or the logic games, but last week I decided to give it a try out of curiosity. Now I gotta say that it was one of the best video game expieriences I ever had. Beautiful music (!), beautiful graphics and simple, yet interesting and touching story (I've cried at the end, 10/10 lol). Puzzles are quite easy, but fun to do. I didn't encounter any glitches (not even one, seriously) throughout the game so Rime deserves a huge plus for that. The game isn't very long, you can easily finish it in 5 hours (though I wasn't looking for all the secrets and collectibles available) so you won't get bored. This is more than just a video game, you have to try it. You won't regret spending your time with Rime. 10/10. ~V
