At first it seems like a generic FPS, but when you get time control, it's interesting to see and fun to play with time. Well made xbox 360-era game and still fun to play in 2025.
I'm a Burnout 2 fan, but also a fan of previous titles of Three Fields Entertainment. First 5 minute impression: oh no, a Trackmania clone? I Trackmania doesn't interest me. Then I saw the island and I think this is great news for Burnout Paradise fans. It looks and plays similar to BP. I never really loved BP... it was ok. Not bad, of course. This is the end of my first 30 minutes-review. So far it looks and plays good. Not 100% my taste, because it's not Burnout 2, but I'll take it. :) Edit 1 - 60 minutes play time: There's a lot of content and the game is well made. I think the game the game feels a bit plain, but to me -every- open world racer felt plain to me, I just prefer track-based old Burnout. :) Still, I like the quality of this game in every aspect.
Really good game. Still is, in 2025. Detailed environments, random placement of objects/npc's so you can replay. And it's very interesting to give commands to team mates. There are 2 teams, you can command them per team or per team member and for every team you can create a PIP-camera on screen, so you are in full control :) Check under the door with mirror, room clear? Let ai team mate enter it and clear the room! Next room! I did not try the GOG Swat 4 mod yet, but that will only make this game even better. 6/5 stars!
Very good presentation: graphic style is beautiful, cute animations, the gameplay is like Dungon Keeper and the commentator tells stories and comments on what you are doing. I'm so glad the voice is British and not American. Play time so far: 45 minutes.
A little bit more difficult than the rogue likes I've played before, because you have to aim for yourself and the reward-system is a bit different than what I expected. I like it when it's different. So it takes 5 minutes of practise. - A bit of lovely visual SNES vibes - shooting feels satisfying - fun to play Everyone, grab this free game
Really love the graphic style. I wish a lot more games will look like this, very enjoyable. Macro strategy here means: you can't click on the soldiers, they walk and shoot by themselves. You select who, where and when. Gameplay: spawn units of different types and see how they fight their way to the right side of the screen (enemy camp). Fun to play, feels arcade-ish.
2 hour review. Will edit the review after more gameplay hours. In short: story driven turn based RPG. Quests, choices, pick up/sell/wear items and go on an adventure with your 3 party members. The story is interesting, the dialogues are good. Graphics: all games from Spiderweb Software are similar. Each game gets a little bit better. The characters now are animated when they stand still, is that new? :) Value: yes, if you accept what the game is. I think this game has a lot of content. (based on "how long to beat") How well do I know Spiderweb software games? Not well. I've played Avernum (2012) for 2 hours and this one for 2 hours, subscriber of the devblog from Jeff Vogel and watched one of his talks on how he has been an indie dev for 30 years. Bought it for 18 euro.
Nice sudoku-like puzzle game. Difficulty starts low, good explanation, slick art. All in all the game plays and looks good. I see there are a lot of levels, so it looks like the full game has a lot of content. Only downside is the music. It is too much present. And sounds a bit stock-music, but ok. I think it would serve a platform game more than a puzzle game.
I've only played 10 hours so far and I'm a slow gamer, but this is one of the best games. The story, cut scenes, graphics, fighting, everything is very, very good. It's very beautiful to see the same forest in the midday or morning. It looks different but always beautiful. Youtube channel @Game-World-Art is interesting to follow. He takes a detailed look at rivers, grass en trees in this game. This game really makes Skyrim feel old.
I've read that it's 5-6 hours long and that's really good. Too many games are padded to artificially last 10+ hours. I prefer good or excellent 3-4 hour games. Graphics and sound and voices are excellent. Cut scenes are beautiful. I really like the scifi setting and design, reminds me of Vanquish (2010). The gameplay is fast fps, not something I prefer, but so far it's interesting to me and it plays well. The story is interesting, I think. Feels like a comment on humans trying to achieve perfection - at what cost? Bought it for 24 euro, played for 30-60 minutes when writing this. Edit: 2,5 hours in and at small doses of about 30-45 minutes, it's a really enjoyable and good looking game. It reminds me graphically of many scifi games I've played before.
