1+2 April 18
Forgot to post my update the other week so here it is.
I finished two SG-Wins (Splasher and Thimbleweed Park) and liked both of them.
Splasher is a fast plattformer that gives you the feeling of a speedruner. It mechanics are awesome and the game is not as hard as it looks in the beginning.
Thimbleweed Park is a classic point and click with strange puzzles and funny characters. Some people complain about the ending but I liked it. Some puzzles where over the top but I guess that’s a must if you try to recreate a classic one.
I also finished two Wadjet Eye Games (Shivah and Primordia). I loves Primordia. The setting, the story… It was awesome. Shiva on the other side… It was okay… Very short and not that hard to beat,
Oh, and I finished Papers Please with the whole family alive. Liked the game back when I started it and it was perfect to play while I was on vacation.
Papers Please is so addicting. The other games look neat too. Especially Primordia!
Primordia is tied for my favorite Wadjet Eye game (Technobabylon is the other one). I think it’s also the first game I got and 100% cleared on steam. I’m glad you liked it as much as I did!
I’ve been on the fence about the Shivah, mostly because I’ve played nearly every Wadjet Eye game save for that one (and A Golden Wake, which I’m playing now). Sometimes its hard to go back to someone’s first released game, but even if it’s just okay, I think it’s worth it to see where Dave Gilbert n Co. first started out.
This is a nice batch of games you’ve beaten!
