Nice relaxing adventure
nothing special
but short enough to be a pleasant experience

I struggled more with this puzzle game, that I would like to admit
The game itself is decent.
Just not a big thing for me


★★★★★

I really enjoyed this time game!
I have no clue about Record of Lodoss War, so I cant say too much about the story.
Which I understood about it was okay.
But the gameplay is great.
Metroidvenia might be my favorite genre nowadays, and this game scratched all my itches.

A Beautiful nature planet get's overtaken by a black slime called the gunk.
First half of the game you mostly run around sucking up the gunk, later there are some enemies you have to deal with.
Most of the time you platform, collect materials and enjoy the scenery
no goty, but an okay game for what it is

Very creative puzzler with light platforming elements.
I got a lot more than I expected from it.
Solid game, if it fits your tastes

A very enjoable mix of platformer/metroidvenia and pokemon.
But sadly the last dungeon killed the fun due to an insane difficulty spike
I think they adjusted that a bit by now, but it was a pain for me.

I am not a big fan of horror.
But this game builds a nice athmoshere without relying on jump scares or gore.
The story it tells is really interesting and till the very end hard to expect what happens.

I really enjoyed weeb souls.
Just in the later part of the game, the church area was such a labyrinth, it was a real pain.
If you like souls-likes, you should give this a try.

This is a pretty good roguelite.
You explore the almost never ending temple with a lot of monsters, bosses and nice mechanics
I didnt bother to go for the true ending
but I enjoyed the the trip to the normal ending.

At first I was tempted to drop the game several times.
but due to my crave for metroidvenia games I eventually pulled through
and I would say the journey I got out of it was worth it.
The game is kinda weird, but if you give it a chance, its really worth it

This game is hard to describe
it's weird, it's fun and even more weird.
but it never gets boring due to the many forms you can change into and the many dungeons to explore

This was my first dragon quest game.
And I really enjoyed it.
It scratches every jrpg itch there is.
The game has what I always enjoyed about final fantasy.
It's a great jrpg, simple as that.

This game is though, really though.
As I noticed how though the game is, I honestly turned the rookie mode on.
This made the game enjoyable, half of the skulls is useless, but when you get a good skull
Damn it makes fun to run around and kill the enemies.
it's also a roguelite game, so if you struggle and die, your next run wil be like 0,1% easier.

This game feels so much like Hades, its incredible
almost every aspect of the gameplay feels like hades.
Just the story and grahpics are different.
But damn, it feels like hades

For me, this was by far the weakest Yakuza
the jump from the remaked 2 to the remaster 3 was pretty rough
But the roughest part was the boring story.
It also makes no real diffrence for the whole thing called Yakuza

well….it was okay

A very refreshing up after the down I had from Yakuza 3
It nicely picks up all the previus yakuzas and answeres some open questions.
I also liked the new combat styles from the other characters.

This one was pretty rough for me.
The first chapter was so slow and made it hard for me to enjoy it.
The start of the next chapter just continued to drag on but it got finally better when I reached the mountain area.
The third chapter was a real enjoyable breeze, the dancing that came and everything was super enjoyable.
the fourth chapter finally had some more action. Just hat new char was not really to my liking.
And well the final chapter……it was epic as usual

it's a yakuza game
it's good
but for me probably one of the worse one
…..I bet because it doesnt have enough majima

Looks like you played some great games this update!

A few games I hadn’t heard of before. Never heard of The Gunk - the game looks very pretty!

Nariel

That feels like one big advantage to me of game pass, I check whats new twice a month.
If the game is only slightly interesting I give it a shot.
More than once I found a good game, I would probably never have bought

Zelrune

Congratulations on all of your assassinations! I’ve never heard of The Medium before, and I’m thankful it doesn’t have any jumpscares. Why 4 stars? What didn’t you like about it?

Nariel

Oh maybe there was a jumpscare somewhere in there :P
But not enough that I remember it at least.
What didnt I like about it…..
Athmosphere and all, but at times the game felt empty to me und I also got stuck a handful of time due to little things they could just have done better.
It’s just a few tiny things that add up, I would say. Makes it hard for me to give it 5 stars
