“Cleaning mission” 5th report:
I will stop to make plans about what i am going to play during following weeks because i never respect them for different reasons. It doesn’t stop me to progress in my backlog anyway :-)

• Borderlands
  

  43 hours playtime

  44 of 80 achievements

I completed the dlc “The secret armory of General Knoxx”, it took me 9 hours to finished it (secondary quests included). I didn’t enjoyed it so much because i am not a huge fan of vehicle phases, and there are very present in this dlc, but borderlands’ universe is still very funny.

• BlazeRush
  

  4 hours playtime

  12 of 21 achievements

(SG Win): A nice local co-op game, unfortunately there is a bug with some graphic cards, as mine, which harm the experience. I will have to borrow a laptop to a friend or a member of my family to complete it.

• Please, Don’t Touch Anything
  

  2 hours playtime

  13 of 15 achievements

(SG Win): The concept of the game is very interesting and some endings are very spectacular. However, some endings are too difficult to obtain, and some puzzles are too complex to understand and to resolve, some extra clues would have been very much appreciated.

• Swordbreaker The Game
  

  5 hours playtime

  67 of 67 achievements

(SG Win): A game based on “choose your own adventure books” principle with a beautiful art designs. Your behavior in the castle have an impact on the ending (3 different endings are possible). The major problem of the game is the story which is not very developped.

• Adam Wolfe
  

  6 hours playtime

  27 of 27 achievements

(SG Win / Monthly theme): It’s the first HOG game that i completed and i liked it. It is most an hybrid between a HOG game and an adventure game than a pure HOG game, but it’s a good way to discover this type of game.The story is very intersting (excepting the ending which is only here to keep a door open for a sequel), and the gameplay is quite dynamic during action scenes.

• Crystals of Time
  

  3 hours playtime

  no achievements

(SG Win / Monthly theme): After Adam Wolfe i wanted to try an another HOG game, and the only one in my steam account is Crystals of Time, a old SG win. I was a bit disapointing by it: the story is not very developped, you have to come back to the same place to many times, it’s difficult to know where to go without using the crystal. However i found this type of gameplay very pleasant, it combines very well with a good podcast.

• Puzzles At Mystery Manor
  

  5 hours playtime

  no achievements

(SG Win): There is 40 jigsaw in this game, unfortunately they are not very diversified. All puzzles contain a skull and different elements in the background. I met a save problem which tarnished the experience, when i restarted the game i have to complete again some puzzles which i already did.

To conclude, i want to thanks ninglor03 for this month’s theme, before i thought HOG games was boring and destinated to people who are older than I am, but now i understand people interest for this type of game. I want to discover more HOG games and i need your advice to avoid generic or mediocre games, thanks in advance for your assistance ;-)
