Minicactus Games once again delivers an amazing puzzle game, this time with a lovely pixel art style and SO MANY CATS! Cats Balance is such a fun balancing puzzle game with a bunch of different stages with varying levels of difficulty, a fantastic soundtrack that is very calming and a cute black cat cheering you on all the way to the end.

It's super cheap and great quality for what it is worth. My only complaint was that it felt like the game was completed a little too fast, so there could have been something more in it. Can't really say what that more could have been though, haha.

Either way, its an amazing little game and I definitely recommend this wholeheartedly! It was such a blast to play!

It's a good little digital storybook. It's not a game at all, but it was fun little thing from Might and Delight developers.

I love the artstyle of Might and Delight games, so getting a little storybook from them is amazing.
The stories are small short stories about fables about different kind of animals.

The fables have good sayings and meanings and it would be great to read for children!

In a world where the oceans are burdened by humanity's neglect, Clean the Sea! challenges you to pilot a lone vessel on a noble quest: cleanse the waters, rescue marine life, and turn the tide on pollution. As you progress in the game, you'll witness impact of your efforts, bringing life and color back to the areas that you've cleaned.

Alright, so, I really like these types of games where you do a task, get currency, improve your tools to get better at the task, then get more currency to improve your tools more, and the cycle goes on and on as long as the game goes on. This game was fun in that regard, though I feel like it would have needed some more things and better optimization in collecting and currency accumulation.

It only took an hour to 100% the game and clear all the areas currently available. It's a short game, and I feel like it would have been better if it took a little longer with more content. Sadly, you have to pay to get to the next areas, so if you focus on upgrading, you hamper your own progress and make it slower. The new trash accumulation is not fast enough for proper currency accumulation, so when you play like that it slows down a lot. Though, once you reach a bank, you can turn coins into cash and it will get a bit better.

Despite this, I did enjoy the game! I do think there could be some upgrades however: balance trash accumulation with upgrade costs, maybe add more different upgrades, the game needs to have an option to change the music volume, not just turning it on and off and the different levels could be a little bit different from each other.

I will say I recommend this game because I do think this would be a really good game with a little bit more work! The price is really good though, compared to what it is now!

Hop on and drive into the colorful adventure of this very cute game! You play as Corbid, a cute elephant, with the power of color on their side. You meet a cute friend, Poppy the axolotl, who helps you on your adventures.

You play your way through two different gardens which contain a few different levels and a boss "fight" for each. It's a very well made and enjoyable game, with cute enemies and a colorful look. The enemies in this game are defeated non-violently, so it's a very lovely game for children. The puzzles in this game include simple navigation, complex paths to unlock doors, use pressure plates and switches, targeting, navigating through different slimes, finding the different colors, combining them and more!

I absolutely enjoyed the game, the first garden was rather simple, but it was clearly meant as a "teaching the basics" kind of stage. The second garden was a little bit harder and it had me scratching my head at some times, but it was still rather simple and great for kids as well! I also read some reviews where people said there had been some bugs, but for me, I encountered none, so I believe they had fixed them rather quickly.

In conclusion it's a very lovely and enjoyable game in my opinion! Definitely worth the price it sits at and it was super fun. Absolutely recommended!

Nukearts Studio once more deliveres an amazing success of a game in their series of hidden cat games. Like it's predecessors, Hidden Cats in Berlin delivers an impressive array of details in it's artworks, with cats hidden in multiple different places and a couple of different modes to enjoy. You start with an uncolored illustration and it gets colored as you find more and more cats until the last one is found and the final awesome artwork is revealed in all of its beautiful color.

You get to play through two different modes of the main game, normal and advanced, as well as extra kitten levels that are unlocked from finding special named cats in advanced mode! There is also a big bonus level, which is unlocked by doing all of the bonus kitten levels. It's similar to what they started to include in their few previous games.

The game is relaxing and addictive like all the games in the series and I would highly recommend this game wholeheartedly, not just on sale, but even with full price as it is not only cheap, but supports the developers to make more of these amazing hidden cat games! Try it out!

Cute game filled with 100 hidden cats! The artwork is simple yet very cute. Finding the cats were very easy though, and I would have wished for a little bit more of a difficulty, or more levels to balance out the game being so easy to complete. It took me a whopping 3 minutes to complete.

Definitely a great free addition to the hidden cats assemble of games, but I hope they add updates in the future for the game to have more content! If you want to support the developer, they also have a DLC level that you can get for under 1€. It adds another 100 cats, but doesn't add any new achievements, so it's not a must if you just want to 100% the game.

I will definitely recommend it, since it's a free game with cute cats, but don't expect a huge amount of gameplay in this one!

Thanks mom is a.. confusing platforming game? Question mark? I wasn't really sure what the heck was going on... I didn't really enjoy it.

Something about babies, pregnancy and cow butt. I know this review is a little sparse, but I really don't know what to say. It was just.. bad in my opinion.

I wouldn't recommend it honestly. I guess if you want some weird stuff then sure.

I played this game for Pay or Play 2nd Cycle of 2024 and it was picked for me by La Volpe.

Telltale revolutionized the ground-breaking choice and consequence game mechanics with their The Walking Dead Series. Now they delivered us a dark and moody thriller based on the Fables comics, The Wolf Among Us.

You play as Bigby Wolf, also known as The Big Bad Wolf, who acts as the Sheriff of Fabletown, a community made for the fables who had to leave their home behind and enter the world of the regular people. The game delivers a mature and gritty take on characters from fairytales, legends and folklore who have escaped into our world and has you hooked on it's story from the get go.

The story spans across 5 episodes that have 5 chapters in each of them. It has twists and turns, excitement and emotion at every turn and a thrilling ending that can change depending on your choices. The story absolutely doesn't disappoint and it was such a blast to play through.

The game isn't even that hard to 100% either, as most achievements are automatic as the story progresses, though some require you to do different choices, for collecting all entries for the book of fables. Thankfully that has been made easy with the replay option after you have completed each episode. I did that at the end once I had completed the whole game and it took only a few moments.

I would definitely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys Telltale games and story-based games. While everyone still clings to the hope of a second season, I personally am just really happy to have experienced this game. Definitely worth your time!

A very lovely Hidden Object game where your hidden objects are cute cats! The game has a very cute artstyle and you can customize all colors of the game if you want! You can change the background, lineart and cat colors to suit your needs! This was perfect because I wanted everything to be dark, since I cannot do lightmode.

The game doesn't take too long to complete though, it only took me 13 minutes to find all cats and do a speedrun level once. It's rather short, and I would have preferred a little bit more game time. There is some extra levels from paid DLCs.

I had some issues with the game running properly through steam when pressing play, so I had to run the game through it's exe file, but that didn't affect anything thankfully, and achievements unlocked fine! Other than that, it was a fantastic hidden cats game and I enjoyed it thoroughly!

I can definitely recommend it for a quick little fun! and it's free, so its definitely worth it!

Another fun Hidden Cats game from Noobzilla. I feel like this one was a huge improvement on the previous one I played! Still very cute art and lovely soundtrack! You can still pick your personal colors on the background, lineart and cats which is still a huge bonus! You can also customize your cursor which was super fun!

This time there is more things to do, some special easter eggs and locked chests. They have less achievements than the last game, but this time the game takes longer to 100%, but it doesn't take too long in my opinion! There is also a photomode that you can try out!

This game still didn't want to launch properly through steam, so I had to play it through the exe again, but the achievements unlocked normally and game time was recorded fine. It's still a little bit of an inconvenience, but it was a good game still.

Definitely recommended, a lovely game for free and was very fun to play. Absolutely worth your time!
