Ok, I am brand new to this and still need to categorize a lot of games!
This past month I finished Amulet of Dreams but didn’t 100% it - no clue why. It was a terrible HOG - you could get a lot of clues and then none with no clear idea of what to next. This happened to me over and over again. I mean I don’t like a game to be too easy but too easy and then too hard as a mechanism? It sucked :-( But the card sales were profitable. Meh - easy come/easy go.
I started Snakebird on a recommendation of a friend. It’s a puzzle game that I probably wouldn’t have picked up and now I know why. I guess it’s great for those that love spatial puzzles but I’m finding it to be somewhat difficult by level 3 so yeah, probably going in the meh dustbin soon.
I also started The Preposterous Awesomeness of Everything. It’s ok - sorta fun but not really holding my interest too much. I’ll give it another go but suspect it’s also going in the dustbin.
The Guest was a Steam Summer sale purchase and it runs horribly on my current laptop. Gonna have to wait for an upgraded gaming laptop. :-(
God’s One Day World - I keep thinking I like VN’s but this one made me want to scream - get on with it already! Dustbinned :-(
Alice’s Patchwork 2 - I love these types of games but the time limit and requirement to get enough keys to move on is leaving me a little frustrated. It’s a casual game but they kind of took the fun out of casual and turned it into a race where if you’re old and slow, you’re gonna lose :-(
Flower Design - I suck at designing anything. Cute but not my kind of game.
Games I previously started but still need to finish:
The Room 2 - nice puzzles!
Tormentum - almost done with 1st playthrough
Perils of Man - pretty fun but got a bit bogged down and life happened
Welcome :) I hope you enjoy your stay here.
Both The Room 2 and Tormentum are great games. I hope you are having fun with them.
Good luck with your backlog killing.
Thanks for the encouragement, Lenor!
Yay, Momo! ^_^
Welcome. Good luck with categorising :)
Hey Narayan!
Yeah, it might take me a while to get through but it’s all good :-)
Hey, welcome to BLAEO! :)
Ugh, I hate time limits in games, too. Why do developers think it’s a good idea, I don’t know. Anyway, good luck with your future progress! :)
Thanks so much for the encouragement! And yeah, what were they thinking for such a cool casual game?
I don’t usually give games second chances. If the game fails to hold my interest (or worse, if I hate it) the first time I try it, it goes to the “abandoned” list. :p
Well I sometimes give some games a second chance - and now that I have a controller, that will be especially true with some platformer games that are totally gorgeous :-)
You know what’s awesome about BLAEO? Gifs aren’t hidden here, like they are on SG! Even tho text formatting is similar to this from SG.
Welcome! :D
I wob you, Mskotor!
Welcome to BLAEO! I hope you like it here.
re: Alice’s Patchwork 2: I feel the same way. I really dislike time limits as well.
Yeah, I really love these types of games but they spoiled it for us casual players :-(
Welcome Momo! c:
{Hugs}
Welcome to BLAEO, Momo! Yeah, that’s weird with Amulet of Dreams…I had achievement-related bugs. FWIW, they unlocked for me. I know, that really helps. :3
The Room 2 is in my backlog (enjoyed #1 though), and Tormentum and Perils of Man are on my wishlist. Good luck! :D
Hey Trent,
The Room 2 is wonderful and just like #1 :-). Tormentum has a unique Good/Bad or White/Blck mechanic… you’ll see :-)
To echo everyone above - welcome aboard. :)
Tormentum - almost done with 1st playthrough
How is it? Looks gorgeous.
It is gorgeous but note that it has two very distinct avenues of progress in order to 100% it - basically you’ll need to play it through twice to get 100% :-)
Welcome aboard, dear new Assassin!
Wish you all the best for killing this nasty backlog ;)
Have a great time :)
Hi Momo! Welcome to Assassins’ Central!
Linus!!
Hope life is good by you and thanks for the welcome!
