I’ve been playing the puzzles in this game on and off for months. Now, after 74 hours in this game, I have completed all 100 puzzles. This will now be the 8th game I’ve full completed in my Steam Library. Only 430 to go.
Playing My Steam Library
So many unplayed games in my library… Let’s play them all!
Learning Forged Battalion
I’ve been relearning how to play strategy games old-skool style, thanks to Petroglyph’s Forged Battalion. It’s not been an easy game to get into. It has a steep learning curve, but once you start to understand some basic strategies you’ll find there’s a fun experience hidden within.
The Remnants of Isolation
Remnants of Isolation, developed by KOMODO, is a JRPG-style game centered on two characters attempting to escape a magical prison. While its story is simple and serviceable, the game truly shines due to its inventive twist on RPG Maker’s core combat mechanics. Mechanics that reinforce the characters and the story.
This Isn’t Grand Theft Auto
Simulation games have always been a mystery to me. The idea of spending hours pretending to do a job I wouldn’t want in real life just didn’t click. But then I tried American Truck Simulator, and I didn’t just understand the appeal, I found myself having fun.
Basingstoke: A Dark Horror
Basingstoke is a town in Hampshire, England that is overrun with zombies and alien creatures. It’s too dangerous to visit in real life, but thankfully Puppygames has provided a realistic simulation of what it’s like to visit this little-known town.
Frustrations with Underhero
This is the first time I’ve truly disagreed with a game’s rating on Steam. I’ve disliked popular games before, but I could usually see what the appeal is, why other people might enjoy it. But Underhero feels like a mess of unfair mechanics, tedious fights, and rage-inducing design.
Space Crew: Phasmid Genocide
I finally finished the main campaign in Space Crew, and Earth is now safe from the Phasmids. This was a fun experience for, and the last few missions were very fun. Though I’m left questioning whether or not the United Defense Force went too far.
Space Crew: The Phasmid War
I’ve been playing Space Crew over the last week, and it only gets better. I’m slowly progressing through the campaign, getting closer to defeating the alien invaders. Though occasionally frustrating, it’s been fun so far, and I’m looking forward to finally completing the campaign.
Space Crew: Emergent Strategy
Marquez leaves the gun emplacement and heads to the security station. Phasmids have breached the hull again. He’s handled this a hundred times before. As soon as the airlock clears, he triggers the purge. Air rushes out into the vacuum of space, dragging the invaders with it.
The Dangers of Darkchester
The Ridge family has now survived over two weeks in their harsh, post-apocalyptic world. Though they’ve largely solved their water crisis, food poisoning continues to plague the shelter. Their lives may be marginally more stable, but comfort remains a distant dream.
