Jason Germino's Reviews
Overall I cannot recommend this game. If it had a much bigger online player base it may be a little different. It does have some fun customizations and ways to celebrate you kicking ass by posing over your victim’s dead body, I don’t feel that it’s enough to pull player base from more competitive games.
Unfortunately, I am unable to recommend this game to everyone. Though I had issues with it, this game may hit a niche of gamers that fall in love with it. Trying to do everything at once was overwhelming and it sucked the fun out of the game.
If you are a huge fan of the first This is the Police, you are in for an awakening. An awakening both good and bad, while some things such as the more in-depth officers and RPG like system were improved on, yet the over-excessive story and hard difficulty overshadows the improvements in those gameplay features. Some of these can be fixed with updates, others may not. I would love to see a third with the best of both worlds put in.
A game that left Early Access too soon, filled with bugs, and needing polish...is still fun to play. Here's to hoping for the future of this game!
Solo: Islands of the Heart sets off what it wanted to do; Be bright, cheerful, and make you think. The game is calming and intriguing enough to want you to keep solving the puzzles and moving to see what happens next. Fans of puzzle games should take a peek at Solo: Islands of the Hear, but most gamers may take a pass at it.
Elex is a game that may frustrate you the way it did to me. You'll know the game is so much better than it seems when you run into issues. The story is amazing and the gameplay can use some work, but that is fixable. For those gamers that are interested in Elex, I do not want to sway your purchase, it has its high points. You may though, want to wait for a major patch to release to fix some of the minor things and balancing. I personally am hopefully looking forward to the future of Elex. They have a great world, an amazing story, and I hope that this becomes a sleeper hit after a patch to clean up some of the game. RPG fans should keep an eye out for this title.
Overall the game was entertaining for a bit, though I probably wouldn't have enjoyed it as much as a true fan. It does have some minor issues, but with a price tag of around $20 it isn't too bad to spend a few hours if you are an existing fan or mech fan.
At the end of the fright, Remothered: Broken Porcelain is probably a must-play for fans of Remothered: Tormented Fathers, but newcomers may not want to jump in at this game if you're looking for the full story. If you are though however are looking for a quick thrill and not too worried about some gameplay issues, Remothered: Broken Porcelain could be something to take a stab at.
Windbound is a decently fun game. Through the story didn't pull me in, the visuals and upgrading the ship were what kept me wanting to play more. If you're a fan of Windwaker, Windbound may not satisfy your craving with the survival pieces added in. But if you're looking for a different survival game, or if the premise of Windbound sounds like it will float your boat? Grab it!
If you are a simulator fan like myself or wanted the opportunity to be able to get behind a backhoe, Construction Simulator 2 can do that for you. Although it isn’t perfect, it does a decent job of how the construction equipment works and getting you at the front desk at a construction company, and give you some fun along the way.
Townsmen: A Kingdom Rebuilt is a fun casual game and besides looking like a mobile port, it quite fun to play and get lost for a bit. Hardcore RTS or city simulator fans may be put off at first, due to the slow beginning. I'd recommend diving in if you're looking for some fun, time-wasting simulation.
The Academy: The First Riddle is a fun game. Puzzle fans should keep an eye out for it and even hope for a "Second Riddle". If you aren't a puzzle fan, The Academy may not put you under its spell.
Even though I ran into some pretty heavy technical glitches on my playthroughs, Blacksad: Under the Skin was a really fun game. The story was fun and enjoyable. The way the characters were presented was really well done too. If you are an adventure or mystery fan, this game could be right up your alley. It was for me, and I hope a sequel is being spoke of.
Sparklite is a fun rogue-like, yet feels like it's missing a small piece to make it truly epic. Hardcore rogue-like fans will grow bored quickly, but newer rogue-like gamers may fall in love with Sparklite. I hope to see a sequel in the future!
Since this is my first interaction with Lucky and this being the 'fixed' version, I am really glad Playful Studios re-released this game. It's fun, cute, and somewhat challenging. It may not cater to the more experienced platform gamer, but I could easily see younger gamers really take to this game. If you're the least bit interested, I'd definitely say give it a shot!
I enjoyed my time with Fade to silence. I have to give major credit to the developers for getting this game back on track, and for listening to the issues players were having. This game is fun survival horror and should be looked at for something a little different in the survival genre. Existing owners should also give this one a try again, you should be surprised.
Rainswept was a great surprise. The deep, meaningful, story around mental health that doesn't make it some evil idea, is refreshing. Though not perfect, it is definitely memorable.
Mutant Football League is a fun game loaded with action, over the top, ass-kicking, football. Though limited on features the Dynasty Edition adds some great replay if the game interests you at all. The niche of gamers MFL is aimed at should have a lot of fun while sports game fans may enjoy the depth of playbook and such, it may be too much to play.
Overall, The Bard's Tale IV, after a few updates, is a solid game. A well-done story backed by amazing voice acting and soundtrack makes this game a must for The Bard's Tale fans. Newcomers to the series should enjoy their time as well. Finding it on sale should help seal the deal.
Umiro at a price point of $2.99 on PC and mobile is a fun puzzle game. The story is intriguing and spikes curiosity. The puzzles are challenging and sometimes frustrating but the story peaks enough interest to continue solving them.
