Quick February Update
Better later than never
Beaten in February 6 Games
A fun little action game, with a nice balance. It’s easy enough to beat all the levels, but getting all the pro stars can prove to be a big challenge. Gameplay is fast and it’s a great game to squeeze in when you have a few minutes. It took me a long time to beat because I was waiting on buying the DLC and also knew some of the achievements were broken. But finally got the DLC in december and used the depot method to fix the broken achievements.
Holy grind batman! This was a fun little game at first, where you crank out weapons and sell them to heroes in different areas, but then they had to include achievements for making 100 of each kind of weapon and it started to feel like a real grind. And so the quirky humour and fun I was having started to wear a bit thin. But I’m still up try the other games in the series some time.
Another month, another puzzle game. Nothing really much got added from the first game in the series, so the drill is the same, move things around, pick up gems in the least number of moves. A decent enough distraction for a coffee break
A perfectly decent little ‘stealth-em-up’ with more than a passing nod to the likes of No one lives forever. Which is also part of the problem. It just made me wish even more that whatever legal red tape is holding NOLF back would get cut, as even today those games are some of the best 60s spy hijinks you can get. Anyway, back to the spy who shrunk me, it’s got definite indie ‘vibes’ and could do with some polish, but it is still fun, and the weapons at your disposal give a variety of ways around the problems.
HOGs get a rep for being very similar and with contrived storylines, but My brother rabbit is definitely different to those and a breath of fresh air for the genre. Great animations, a cure story and a nice spin on the usual hidden object gameplay, where the objects are hidden in the world you explore, instead of just in fixed ‘scenes’. Recommended even if you don’t normally like HOGs
A game that can’t quite decide what it is. Great hand drawn characters and great bullet hell type game play, but then interspersed with awkward platforming sections. But it’s not too challenging at least, so frustration never sets in.
Well this update is now a month late, so I won't talk too much now, but save it for the next post. A bit of a quieter month all round, but no harm in that.
