July Roundup

Hey Assassins,

it’s already August, I nearly can’t believe it. Time goes by so fast and I didn’t manage to finish a lot of games this month. Only a few, but here’s my progress:

Games from July Monthly Theme – Ruby

Portal of Evil: Stolen Runes Collector's Edition

13.7 hours, 14 of 20 achievements
6/10

It's a meh Hidden-Object-Game. The Cut-Scences are nice, the story was ok and the graphics on my Ultra Widescreen Monitor fits perfect without stretching the game or something. That was really nice. But the game didn't catch me. I don't know why, maybe it was because of the religion story or because of the unreliable main character. If you already have the game, you could give it a try. Otherwise I recommend to skip this one. There are much more better HOGs outthere. ;)

Games from the PoP – Group

Whispers of a Machine

10.1 hours, 10 of 25 achievements
9.5/10

This game is brilliant. A super thrilling, beautiful Pixel - Adventure for Adults. Classic Point and Click control but always combinations with a lot of scences. A high aspect in this game is to talk to other people and you have to make decisions. You're a detective and want to solve mysterious murders in a little city. With your augmentation you get some real cool support and it depends on your decisions which augmentation you're getting next.
I really love this game and I always want to know how the story goes on. If you speak german, you can read my full review on steam here. And if you like it, I would be really happy if you could click the like button. Thank you! <3

Best game in July

10,000,000

10.7 hours, 11 of 14 achievements
9.5/10

This game is absolutely brilliant. And you'll getting addicted in the first 10 Minutes of playing. I never thought this game brings me so much fun! It's hillarious. I think I should play it again. But the other game from the same devs - You must build a boat is always high addictable. You. Must. Play. This. Game.

Other games I’ve finished in July

SoulSet

5.8 hours, 3 of 33 achievements
7/10

It's a Visual Novel with decision making. The story is weird, atleast at the beginning. And then finally you thin"Oh now it's getting interessting" - the story is over.
This game is make for playing it again and again with other decisions and so you finally come behind all the mysterious things. But 1 playthrough is round abaout 4 to 5 hours. The story is indeed good and if you have the time and the pleasure to play this game a few times, I recommend it to you.
The graphics are nice and there's a little romance and love in this game. Grab it in a Sale! ;-)

Hell Girls

8.9 hours, 92 of 92 achievements
8/10

The Match 3 Battles in this game are pretty well done. Don't expect much erotic or a super nice story. You've got 3 girls with different skills. The skills can be upgradet. Also you can change the clothes and the weapons which give the girls more power. It's also a good game for achievement hunter. 100% are easy to make. The Price ist toally fair, but you can also wait for a sale.

The Hex

7.2 hours, 5 of 28 achievements
8.5/10

I got this game for free within the context of the steam Curator-Program. But this doesn't affect my review in any way. You can read my (german) reviews on steam here. If you understand it and likes it, I really appreciate if you could show this with a click on the like button :). Thank you!
Short summary in english:
The Hex is a love letter to video games. In one game you can play very different genres and there are a few eastereggs to find.
Highly recommended to all fans of videogames - a masterpiece!

So, that was all for July. Maybe I manage to finished a bit more games in August. But I think the september will be sacrificed to World of Warcraft Classic. We’ll see.

Stay healthy and keep on assassinating!

Love & Hugs
