May Assassination #1 (SG Win)
Please consider liking my review on Steam - it means a lot to me!
Venba is one of the closest things you have to a movie, but in videogame form. It's a short visual novel (~1h) that has a few single screen puzzles scattered throughout that you can't fail.
Narrative wise, it's great. It looks great with its distinctive artstyle, and it sounds great with its banger soundtrack, althought I can't help but imagine how awesome voice acting would be here to differentiate between English and Tamil. The plot is very personal, a bit forced, and feels very rushed -- pacing-wise, the game flies by, in my opinion even a bit too fast.
The puzzles are what they are, nothing grating but also nothing great. Do I think the game is worth $14.99? No. But for a third of that price, there are worse ways to spend an hour doing something.

Somewhat of an update: Games added in April. Let’s call it update #3. If anyone suggests anything to move on a priority list cause the game is good, I would gladly hear you out. Games were either won or traded for, except for Aces and Adventures and Mad Tracks which were dirt cheap.

Update 156: April 2026
Another month done, time flies as usual.
Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway is a fun and surprisingly polished kart racer that clearly takes inspiration from Mario Kart, while adding its own Nickelodeon charm. The controls feel responsive, the tracks are varied, and the roster is packed with recognizable characters that fans will enjoy. I played it solo and had a good time unlocking content and racing through the different cups. The gameplay is easy to pick up and works well for casual sessions. I cannot really judge the co-op or multiplayer side since I only played alone, but as a single-player kart racer it was enjoyable. Could not find any online games though, so if you are looking for that this might not be the game for you.
Karisvale is a short and enjoyable free detective game where you investigate the disappearance of a missing resident. The game creates a nice mystery atmosphere and gives you enough clues to keep things interesting without becoming too complicated. Exploration and talking to characters feel rewarding, and the investigation theme works well throughout the experience. For a free title, it offers a surprisingly solid level of quality and a decent amount of charm. It may not be very long or groundbreaking, but it is definitely worth trying if you enjoy simple mystery games and light detective-style adventures.
The Last Tinker: City of Colors is a charming and easy platformer with a cute story and a colorful world full of personality. The game keeps things light and accessible, making it a relaxing experience for players who enjoy straightforward platforming and cheerful presentation. Movement and combat are simple to learn, and the overall atmosphere is fun and upbeat. Some sections can be a bit buggy or rough around the edges, which occasionally interrupts the flow, but nothing too severe. Despite those flaws, it remains a pleasant and enjoyable adventure that is worth playing for its charm alone.
The Smurfs - Mission Vileaf is a decent platformer with a bit of nostalgic appeal, especially for anyone familiar with the Smurfs. The levels are colorful and the presentation stays true to the series, while the gameplay offers simple and accessible platforming. Movement generally works well, and there are some enjoyable moments throughout the adventure. At the same time, certain sections can become frustrating or repetitive, which takes away from the overall experience. It is not a standout platformer, but it is a solid enough game for fans of the Smurfs or anyone looking for a fairly casual platforming experience.
Railroad Tycoon 2: Platinum 
Railroad Tycoon 2 has definitely not aged all that well, but it was still fun enough to complete. The old 800x600 resolution takes some getting used to, especially on modern screens, and it really shows its age in both visuals and interface design. It is also amusing to look back at the cutscenes that once seemed incredibly impressive at the time. Despite that nostalgia factor, the core gameplay of building routes and managing your railway empire still has some charm. A few of the scenarios were surprisingly difficult, though that may just mean I have gotten worse at these games.

Apparently Humble Bundle decided to retroactively change a ton of key expiration dates and added some to keys that never had one (looking at that Jumbo bundle from 2018) and changed keys from steam to Epic or Gog or whatnot. I went through my whole key list and noted down all current expiration dates, probably not the greatest format as is, but it will have to do for now:

In April, I completed
DO I RECOMMEND THIS? I MEAN, SURE.. I GUESS. BUT IT WAS CLOSE.
TO GET MONEY YOU BREAK THINGS, +. BUT YOU ALSO HAVE TO RECYCLE, -.
THERE ARE ALLIGATORS, +. YOU CAN'T PET THE ALLIGATORS, -.
YOU GIVE SENTIENCE TO COINSTAR MACHINES, -. BUT YOU MAKE THEM COMMUNISTS, +.
SOMEONE ELSE WROTE, THE CHARACTERS ARE ALL TURNED UP TO QUIRKY STEREOTYPE, WHICH IS GD ACCURATE.
A BITCH (THATS NOT A CUSS DONT CENSOR IT) ALMOST SENDS SOMEONE TO SCHOOL JAIL, BUT BECAUSE THEY CRY ABOUT THEIR IMPOSTER SYNDROME EVERYONE COMFORTS THEM, INSTEAD OF APOLOGIZING TO THE PERSON THEY WERE WITCH HUNTING, -.
THE ART STYLE IS ALRITE, THE SOUNDTRACK IS FORGETTABLE, THE TIMELOOP MECHANIC MAKES THE FRIEND GATHERING IRRELEVANT (BUT THERES FRIENDSHIP TOKENS, SOOOO, I GUESS IT STILL COUNTS?). ALL THE GOOD YOU DO THAT ISNT THE MAIN STORY IS MADE ULTIMATELY IRRELEVANT.
AND THE BIG BOSS BATTLE, HOLY CRAP, THAT SHIP SUUUUUCKS. IT FEELS TACKED ON, THE BBEG'S MONOLOGUE IS BOTH UNSKIPPABLE AND P O N D E R O U S L Y SLOW.
I GIVE IT A C-? I GUESS? THERES NO REAL REPLAY VALUE, BUT IF YOU GET IT FOR CHEAP ITS NOT THE WORST WAY TO WASTE 6 HOURS.
ITS A CUTE GAME, IF A LITTLE INSCRUTABLE AT FIRST. ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF IT THO ITS VERY EASY. THERES SOME CLEVER THOUGHTS IN THE GAME, BUT ABOUT 2/3'S OF THE WAY THROUGH YOUVE BASICALLY SEEN IT ALL.
THAT SAID, ITS NICE TO SEE A GAME REALLY EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES OF SECRETS AND SECRET LEVELS.
I JUST WISH THIS GAME HAD MORE MEAT ON ITS BONES, Y'KNOW?
IF YOU JUST GO IN AND GRIND IT, ITS OVER REALLY QUICK. ITS PROLLY BETTER TO PLAY IT EPISODICALLY, DO ONE OR TWO PUZZLES, THEN COME BACK A DAY OR A WEEK LATER OR SOMETHING.
FOR WHAT IT IS THO, I GIVE IT A SOLID B.
