Grow Home is a masterpiece that gives out a strong core mechanics as a platform game that can make you play the game out its charm despite its lack of narrative, replay value, and dull dialogue.
Dying Light is Techland's way of saying "We're back!" to the disappointments of Dead Island. It is also a visually beautiful zombie game that is battered by a weak story but rescued by an intricate day and night cycle and fluid parkour gameplay. If you are a self-proclaimed zombie killer in an open world FPS game, then I bet this game is for you.
Overall the game is a decent action-adventure, closely mimicking one of gaming's most iconic franchises. It may have everything on what makes it a Zelda game but it didnt quite get what makes a Zelda game great, but to its own Oceanhorn is a very good game.
So in the end, is the game worth picking up? If you're new to the genre or just looking for some mindless zombie killing fun, the game has plenty in store for you. While it doesn't necessarily stand out from the rest of the games in the genre, it's still a decent title with solid and enjoyable gameplay. If you liked the game, then you're in for a treat since Zombie Army Trilogy comes packaged with the previous games of the series and the first game even comes remastered.
To sum it up, Etherium is a fun yet deep game. The game's pace is fast enough to make every match exciting yet complex enough to leave seasoned RTS veterans wanting more. The inclusion of Conquest mode helps ramp up the number of hours you'll be spending into the game.
Ori and the Blind Forest is a noteworthy entry of a beautiful Indie Game. The game's uneasy difficulty system is redeemed by its poignant story and fast-paced combat. From start to finish, Ori and the Blind Forest is careful with its emotional trip towards players. The consistency of its story and the fluidity of its combat system is what makes Ori a game worth playing.
Nevertheless, The Charnel House Trilogy gave out a thrilling ride that started out slow and eventually picked up pace until everything went crazy. Personally, I do not mind if the game gets a sequel as the trilogy felt like it was just a glimpse of what is more to come. I do recommend to those gamers that aren't really fond of horror games, like me, to try out this game as its scare factor is quite bearable and that it is dwelling more on unravelling the mysteries of our protags, the train, and Augur Peak.
One cannot simply pass them up as backgrounds because most of them carry hints as to how to unlock doors that will help you progress to the next level. The music and effects are simple yet very effective. Considering that there is a heavy musical component to this game because of the Musicom, the sound effects and musical scoring are non-obtrusive. The variations in every stage sets a mood and ambiance that immerses you in the game in a very charming and magical way.
Despite the delay, Chroma Squad still maintained its hype up until today. The devs did a good job of utilizing the delay to further improve the game. Some sources and even rumors say that there's a possibility that the devs would expand the game to even include the Kamen Rider series.
Weaponographist is there as a combat game but it's not quite there as a game that could really get you hooked up on playing for hours and hours. My recommendation: you can try it out to experience the gameplay but I don't guarantee that you'll totally love it.
Grand Theft Auto V showcases the masterpiece of an open world action adventure title that Watch_Dogs and other open world games have failed to deliver. The mind-blowing graphics, alluring gameplay experience, and the perfect online mode makes Grand Theft Auto V a deserving game to be awarded with Game of the Year title of 2015!
Overall, I could say that Inside My Radio is one of those uncommon games that would really surprise its players with the gameplay experience it offers. Highly recommended for those gamers who greatly appreciate game soundtracks and those that are fans of platformers.
Color Guardians is not too shabby as a fast-paced side-scrolling platformer title. Despite its lack of voice-over and better dialogue, the game can be or not be worth your time. It boils down to the gamer's preferences. But if you ask me, based on my review and experience on the game, it's a fair platformer game but Color Guardians is not worth purchasing if you're a short-tempered player.
Endless Legend is a game worthy of every penny for its price because of the amount of content the players can engage themselves on. Plus, the level of sophistication its gameplay has means that players will definitely get the right amount of entertainment and challenge in every playthrough that they do.
Overall, Sym is quite the game, not the greatest but most definitely not the worst. The puzzles are pretty interesting with a good balance of challenge and easiness with a great soundtrack with a pretty obvious originality to the storyline. Like the color scheme, Sym is a very neutral game although it somehow at the same time stands out but there definitely could have been much more to it than there was.
Overall, Hatred is an impressive shooter with solid gameplay elements of its genre. The lack of narrative, weapon choices, and some minor bug crashes were the game's downfall at major categories in this review. However, the almost great shooting gameplay touch of Hatred is the glory of them all. It's not great a game but it's not a horrible title either. Just good enough.
Between good and horrible, 60 Seconds! is almost horrible. The gameplay and dialogue is repetitive, horrible and buggy controls, and annoying glass-breaking sounds make your whole first 60 seconds of playthrough a waste of your time.
As for the replay value, one must note that every moral decision the player will make in the game will will affect the game's ending. One wrong choice will actually make the player "lose" the game, and by losing means not passing judgment, and will condemn the protagonist to the depths of hell. There is no manual save button or checkpoints that you can go back to in case you make a wrong decision, so one is left with no choice but to replay the game from the start to achieve redemption. There are also 34 achievements that you can unlock.
In conclusion, Cities: Skylines fills the void that the recent Sim City failed to live up to, and even with its short comings, it is a good city-building game and is one of the best in recent years.
Perils of Man is definitely worth the time and money and I would highly suggest this to you or to any of my friends. As an Indie game, I think they did an amazing job and I would definitely be looking forward to a sequel if they have one in mind.
