Fallout: London

What an achievement!

I'm usually not prone to exaggerations, but this is a monumental game. It goes to show that all is needed are people with vision and love for what they are doing. Clearly better than the base game and, unfortunately, plagued by the same engine issues, this is otherwise a long and complex story with excellent replayability (at least for the main factions). The reconstruction of London is incredible, the quests are well designed, the dialogue is well written, and even the voice acting, which is usually substandard in similar efforts, is remarkably well done. More than 100 hours of playing time for free is just the cherry on top. Bethesda should take notice, because this is exactly what fans want.

The Last Express

OK, but clunky and a bit annoying

A bit buggy, a bit repetitive, often you have no idea what you missed or did wrong and the sound is not great (and it doesn't have subtitles for English), so you miss some of the dialogue. Good story nonetheless, so worth a playthrough.

Trüberbrook

Beautiful, but flawed

Graphics are amazing, the world-building is nice, but overall it is too short and easy to enjoy and the story is not well tied together and unsatisfying.

Beyond a Steel Sky

Good story, bad game

Nostalgia aside, this game does have a few things to offer. The visuals are good, the voice acting fun (though I did not like Foster having an American accent) and the story moves along nicely. But it is an overall weak affair, since the puzzles are too few and repetitive (and some downright stupid). Worth a try, if it is on sale, but do not pay full price for this.

VirtuaVerse

Good effort with issues

Loved the atmosphere and the music. Pixel art was a bit uneven, but totally acceptable. The story is good, albeit not particularly original. The duration of the game is also very satisfying, one never feels that it was rushed to market. Unfortunately, the puzzle design is horrendous. Even when in-game hints are given, they can be given at random times rendering them useless. The dialogue is also extremely badly written making the characters annoying and poseur-ish. So, even though I mostly enjoyed the game (I got it for free here, so I can't complain), I cannot recommend it. If GOG gives it away again at some point, then it might be worth a look.

The Samaritan Paradox

Decent game overall

Really liked the pixel art and was pretty satisfied with the story. Many reviewers here have complained about the voice acting, but I thought it was OK. The controls weren't great and some of the puzzles were quite stupid and annoying. I also had a potentially game-breaking bug (apartment had disappeared from the map), but luckily I could repeat the steps to find it again. I did not like the fact that there was no option to tell the truth at the end.

Ken Follett’s The Pillars of the Earth

Another interactive story

The book was amazing and I had some expectations about this game. But it's not a game. It's beautiful visually and it does a decent job of telling the story, but there is nothing to do, other than follow the very linear plot. Disappointing, because I know that Daedalic can make real adventure games.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Digital Deluxe Edition

Decent, not as good as the ones before it

I really don't understand the culture wars on here. This is a bloody game people. If you get triggered because of wokeness or lack thereof, you are all a bunch of snowflakes and maybe you should start considering that the people you are fighting on the other side are not that different from you, when it comes to your fanaticism. As a game it is OK, but it does not bring anything new to the franchise. It's visually beautiful, but weak, when it comes to level design, action and story. Play it, if you are a Wolfenstein fan or a casual FPS player. Play it, if you find it heavily discounted. Don't bother, if you have limited free time for games, there are better games to spend your precious free time on.

Kentucky Route Zero: PC Edition

Not a game, but an incoherent interactive story

This is not by any means a game. I cannot see what the point of even having a cursor and dialog options is, since nothing makes a difference in the flow the story. I really liked the visuals and some of the sub-stories, but overall this experiment is far too slow and boring to enjoy.

Psychonauts

Very good for a 3d platformer

It's wonderfully designed and scripted, for that alone it's worth it. Beautiful artwork, funny dialogues, good pacing. So, yeah, it is a very good game and I fully recommend it. However, it is a 3d platform game, which means that it is very often super annoying. Even though the makers have mostly succeeded in making the camera following Raz functionally adequate, one often cannot see where Raz is supposed to go leading to frequent jumping to his death. What I also did not like in most boss fights is that it is not very clear what the boss's weakness is, so luck or googling is required. Other than that the game is rather easy and pleasant.
